Shika is a very "normal" person. Well, he might be a small-time crook, but you have to make ends meet right. He spends most of his time doing normal things like robbing oblivious people, sleeping in sewers, getting chased by city guards. His life was relatively normal until one event completely changed his life. Shika gets shoved into a world of magic, politics, backstabbing, and magical ninjas (that's a story for another time). Very troublesome indeed...
