history
Kumou Kagemitsu is the family head of the Kumou family of the Cloud shrine and he's older than he looks. The task given to the Kumou family is to guard the shikigami spirit, Botan, summoned by the Abe family. This spirit needs protection as she is incredibly hard to summon, and they can't afford the summoning to end before her task is done. And that task is to seal the Orochi - the cursed serpent - every 300 years. This happens in Oumi and is centered by Lake Biwa.
So, Kagemitsu has been living with Botan, and a man called Sasaki, at the Cloud Shrine, which belongs to the Kumou family, for many years, and together with them and the tanuki Poko, growing close and becoming a family. Sasaki was chief protector of Oumi and Kagemitsu a highly respected citizen, and Botan was there because the Orochi had revived and they were searching for the vessel it was lodging in.
And then, in comes Hirari. Hirari is a member of the Abe onmyouji family, who were the ones who summoned Botan. The guy was incredibly suspicious and Kagemitsu thought he was the vessel, so it irritated him a lot when the guy insisted upon being Botan's husband. But that it would have done either way.
Anyway, that evening, followers of the Orochi, members of the Ashiya onmyouji clan, invaded the Cloud Shrine. But they left pretty quickly, for some reason. Though before they did, Botan tied Hirari to a tree because Hirari was a pain in the ass. Along that line, Hirari decided to move into the Cloud Shrine, and it resulted in everyone becoming a little closer to him, even if they still thought him to be the Orochi Vessel.
As it turns out, though, Hirari was not the Vessel, beucase it was actually Sasaki, who tried to pin it on Hirari. When he was outed as the Vessel, Sasaki turned and transformed into the great, enormous shape of the cursed serpent, and had to be defeated before fully revived. Kagemitsu was sent by Botan to help Hirari, who turned out to have been raised to be bait for the Orochi, and Hirari lost an arm to pprotect Botan, a little bit later. When the Orochi cried and the Vessel died, halting the resurrection, Botan disappeared, and Hirari and Kagemitsu charged to fend off the followers of the Orochi, such as Ashiya.
