Overlooked for many years given his wanderings through the gardens wherever his family might take him very few realized his true heritage. Perhaps it was that bloodline that brought a love for the plants, finding serenity in their presence. All the same , even at the age of 6, he came to enjoy wandering the various gardens time and again whenever the chance was allowed. And it was often that he would point out, in only the way a child could, why something was wrong with a garden. How certain techniques were not being used, or how some insects were wise to have, or how the harmony was off-set by placement of certain plants and/or art. And it was this honesty, this awareness of the harmony of things and how they worked together, that caught the eye of his Solar patron. Arrangements were made, his family benefiting greatly from this apprenticeship, and the young boy came to live with his Patron.
At first young Donshi worked with his fellow gardeners, soon outshining the mortals in understanding and connection with things. It was a Wood-Aspect Terrestrial that soon took him under his wing. He was educated on many things, mainly how to use his gifts to understand how to tend a garden that might rival, someday, the great Ma-Ha-Suchi's garden. Such a goal was a worthwhile goal as he was treated well by his Patron and the household staff, for even though he was directly honest he was also very respectful and not prone to talking much otherwise.
It was his 10th birthday that threw everyone off, well, almost everyone. For he Exalted as a Wood-Aspect Terrestrial one day while practicing his basic martial arts unde the falling blossoms of a willow tree he tended to more often than others. His teacher understood, and His Patron was proud. Even his Sidereal adviser noted it a possible omen for greatness. His Patron wasted no time tracing the child's bloodline and found although many steps removed he was indeed the descendant of the oldest, living Terrestrial Saibok Gauto. Nobody had realized this, but it soon brought him much, unwanted, attention from people left and right.
His Patron soon recognized a gift when he saw it for the child took to the martial arts with ease, evidenced by his teacher and his reports. And seeing how the child tended to note interplays between life quite well his Patron soon realized where he could best use the boy's talents. So secretly, over the next decade, Donshi was trained further in the skills of combat, and eventually how to pilot a Warstrider. Donshi learned to use his skills well and began to best each of his Patron's other Wastrider pilots in close combat and arena-combat. With one exception, his instructor. His instructor would not let hubris grip the boy and would further instruct him a time went by.
Saibok Donshi, when not directly in his role as a gardener, wears the Artifact armor gifted to him by his ancestor, (privately it might be added), with his Patron insisting it so as to protect his identity further given that nobody is aware of the connection. While in his guise as the gardener he has taken to continuing his teacher's tradition by teaching the younger generation Terrestrials how to fight and how to keep their calm in the world.
