Tenzan Pass (天山の峠; Tenzan no Touge) is a location in Suikoden II.
Overview[]
A pathway that runs through the Tenzan Mountain, the Tenzan Pass is a footpath connecting the capital of the Highland Kingdom L'Renouille to the town of Kyaro. A side path off the main path will take you to a large open area that was once the camp for the Unicorn Brigade, just up from that is a spot overlooking a waterfall.
Story[]
Prior to the year 460, the Unicorn Brigade, a unit composed of youth soldiers from Highland, trained in this area. However, in the year 460, in order to stir up support for a war with the Jowston City-States, then-Prince Luca Blight massacred the Unicorn Brigade, putting the blame for the deaths of the young soldiers on a Jowston attack. This attack led directly to the beginning of the Dunan Unification War.
During this massacre, two friends, Jowy Atreides and Riou, managed to escape by jumping off the cliff, into the waterfall. Before jumping, they made a mark on the side of the mountain and a promise to retrieve each other there. After the end of the war, Jowy would wait for his friend at that exact spot.
