Although he was killed 18 years ago, his spirit continues to linger, seeking to repair what he feels is his fault, and to protect his beloved son. He's a very gentle and soft-spoken individual, who talks very affectionately of his family, and also desperately tries to convince Leaks of his true feelings. In life, Shui was an extremely powerful sanga, running for the office of head sanga in Ransen, but his rivals were attempting to use his friendship with Leaks against him, ultimately killing him.
