tell us about uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ieyasu
*tosses in a picture cause why not*
Ieyasu Qestir is Shinomi's dad. He is a very outgoing and friendly man, always welcoming strangers with a smile. Despite appearances (mostly that big honking axe), Ieyasu is a big softie with a heart of gold and is always willing to lend a hand to anyone. Think Hildibrand but not a complete Himbo TM.
Underneath this ultra friendly exterior is a capable fighter and a shrewd business man. Indeed, the young Ieyasu spent a good amount of his eary years observing the various merchants in Reunion buying and selling in Reunion, and applying it to his own "business" (which was really him just trading pebbles with other children). Over time, he made a true business selling the wares of his tribe first to others on the steppes (splitting the occasional skull every so often to prove the axe wasn't a show), then to the kingdom of Doma, eventually making his way to the trade hub of Kugane, where he truly began to make a killing. Apparently there was quite the market for the wool coats worn by the Xaela.
