Story
Gekkai is mentioned by Oboro Moonrise as the ninjutsu master from his old village in Doma, whose body was found disfigured beyond recognition after Karasu had sold them out to Garlemald. However, once Karasu is defeated, he reveals that Gekkai was the one who sold out Doma to the imperials. He gave Karasu two choices: serve him or die, who chose the former.
Following Karasu's cryptic hint, Oboro confronted Gekkai at Candlekeep Quay. He affirmed that he is the Imperial spymaster in Doma, and explained that shinobi had always served various masters. He further admits that he finds Garlean culture to his liking. He taunts Oboro as being all alone during the confrontation, at which point Tsubame Sunrise and the Adventurer appear to back up Oboro. During the ensuing battle, Gekkai reveals many advanced ninjutsu techniques, including the "lost" fourth mudra which allows him to attack with doppelgangers.
