Makito was a student of Asako Kinuye, leader of a cultist cell. He was stationed on the City of Tears, a sacrosanct city that had been forbidden to dwell within it by the Elemental Masters since the War of Spirits. The cultists used it as their hidden center of power. Rising from the Ashes, by Shawn Carman

Scrolls retrieved by Shiba Jouta and the ronin Motaro from the lair of the Cult of the Dead Moon, a rival cell devoted to Onnotangu, were deciphered by students of Asako Bairei. There were a number of references to sinister adversaries' and blasphemers' that dwelled within a city in the forest. The Phoenix Clan Champion sent Shiba magistrates to the City of Tears, the possible city indicated in the scrolls. Makito used his maho power to destroy them. The lack of notice from the patrol led in more investigations and eventually would lead in the destruction of the cell. Blood for Blood, by Shawn Carman
