Shuro Chi

"You will address her as 'Queen'"

- Shuro Chi

Shuro Chi, formerly known as Shuro Chi, the Corrupted while she was Taken, is an Awoken Techeun who served Queen Mara Sov. She assisted the Queen several times, once to reach out to straying Awoken, and another as a bodyguard since the Wolf Rebellion. Shuro also served as liaison between the Techeuns and the other Awoken, particularly the Queen's Wrath Petra Venj, ameliorating personality clashes and distrust.

The Wolf Rebellion
During the Wolf Rebellion, Chi participated in a discussion with Prince Uldren Sov, Paladin Yasmin Eld, and Petra Venj on Skolas' attempts to rally the House of Kings.

Enacting the Plan
Before the fateful Battle of Saturn Shuro participated in a rare meeting with the Coven, discussing what to do about Oryx, the Taken King. She was instructed by Illyn to take the youngest Harbingers to "plant them" into the Dreadnaught, "to have children of their own".

She was later Taken when Oryx unleashed the Dreadnaught's superweapon in retaliation for deploying the Harbingers.

Freed From Corruption
When the Guardian first reached the Dreaming City, Shuro was present along with her fellow Taken Techeuns. Upon the Guardian's approach, she and her sister Techeuns immediately banished them into the Ascendant realm, forcing them to escape.

Eventually, Shuro became one of the last lines of defense against the Guardian Raid team that sought to slay Riven, and was freed from her Taken corruption after being weakened. Following this, Shuro would periodically contact the Guardian regarding Public Events within the Dreaming City.

Shuro can also be found replacing normal scan patrols in the Dreaming City. When approached, she will guide the Young Wolf towards a point of interest and offer insight relating to it and the foundations of the Dreaming City and the Awoken.
