Wandering about, Setsuna found the body of a infant in a battlefield and possessed it. His power, made the body grow up, making him look like he was 20 years old. He starts killing many people until he finds out he needs a weapon. He finds Hibiki Takane's father, a master blacksmith and orders him to make him a powerful, unbreakable sword. For eighty days, Hibiki's father wouldn't eat or sleep in order to create the blade. When he finishes it, he passes away.
