History
Around 310 years prior to the events in Rohan at the Louvre, she marries a painter by the name of Nizaemon Yamamura. According to legend, Nizaemon had discovered a pigment of a hitherto unknown blackness in the trunk of a tree. Due to the exceptionally lustrous nature of it, Nizaemon extracted the pigment and used it in several of his works. Unfortunately, the tree was ancient; it was more than 1000 years old. Back then, chopping it down was forbidden by decree, and so Nizaemon was executed just after his wedding with Nanase. Having been forced to become a widow, Nanase became gravely ill and died soon after.
Rohan at the Louvre
Years later, she reappears under the name of Nanase Fujikura (presumably a ghost), and rents a room in Rohan's Grandmother's inn. Rohan, at the age of seventeen at the time, becomes intrigued by her and attempts to use her as a model for his drawing. After having been intruded on while changing earlier that day, she catches him "spying" on her and quickly becomes agitated. Rohan explains that he trying to become an up and coming mangaka and he needed her as inspiration. Nanase becomes intrigued by his drawings and asks to read his work once he finishes it.
Days later, Nanase stops Rohan in the hallway to ask bout his completed manga. This section requires expansion.
