Description
Above the Academy was located the soratami capital Otawara (Oboro), and the moonfolk frequently visited the academy—officially to share their wisdom, but actually to maintain control of the academy when using it to pursue their own secret agenda.
The Minamo Academy trained both archers and mages for the conflict between material and spirit worlds. The headmaster of the academy was Sensei Iki Hisoka; his deputy was Madame Azami, the Lady of Scrolls.
During the events leading to the climax of the Kami War, Choryu, a Minamo student and friend of Princess Michiko Konda, made a grave mistake when he killed Kobo, member of the Hyozan Reckoners and apprentice of Hidetsugu. Obedient to the Hyozan oath, the ogre proceeded to execute a complete reckoning for that crime. The ogre attacked the academy with his yamabushi hunters, defeated the guardian dragon Keiga, and destroyed the academy, killing anybody who got in the way. Some of the inhabitants escaped this fate, but Hisoka himself was decapitated (and consumed) by Hidetsugu.
Whatever was left of the Academy was further destroyed in the battle between O-Kagachi and the All-Consuming Oni of Chaos.
After the war, the Minamo School was rebuilt, as evidenced by the fact that Mariko, niece of the Brothers Yamazaki, was said to be studying at the Minamo.[2] Minamo Academy was rebuilt with the promise of transparency to conduct research that would improve lives.[3] However it would eventually declined after the Shattered States Era, replaced by Otawara as Kamigawa's center of technology to the point that Kairi was offered to guard it instead (which he refused).[4] Its current status is thus unknown.
