Shihano was an active Guard officer, as well as a soulful poet, philosopher, and skilled swordsman.
Although he has a crush on his beautiful cousin Roxanne, he dares not pursue her because of his own inadequacies. His only flaw was his huge, ridiculed nose, a fatal flaw he felt inferior to, and that the beautiful Roxanne would reject him. After Christian's death, Roxanne moved into a
convent .
For 15 years, Shihano visited her every Saturday at three o'clock in the afternoon.
No matter how hard it was, his happy spirit always supported Roxanne. On one occasion, Shihano was shot in the head by an enemy, but he hid his wounds and only asked to recite Christian's last letter to her for Roxanne, which was something Roxanne carried with her.
Roxanne finally realizes that Shihano is the one she has been in love with for many years, when Shihano recites the letter in the dark with abundant emotion and without hindrance.
