Shiba Norinaga

Shiba Norinaga was the commander of the Sapphire Legion. In the year 308, in one of the many conflicts their Crane allies had with the Lion Clan, Norinaga moved the Sapphire Legion and stood to arms to prevent the Lion from passing through their lands to attack the Crane. The stubborn Lion Clan Champion attempted to circunvent the Phoenix forces, to avoid conflict with a second Great Clan, forcing the Sapphire Legion into defensive positions. The Phoenix army never left the place, denying the Lion to pass through. Their camp would eventually become the city of Nikesake. Strongholds of the Empire, pp. 65-66
