Sasaki Kuro was born in Kurushima (Kuro Island) to Lev Volkov and Sasaki Asa. His brother, Sieg (Meaning Champion of the Cross) is his elder brother. This family lived a relative distance from other families and would have to travel miles just to see another human being. This bothered Kuro none for he had his elder brother to keep him company. The beginning years of his life he looked up to his brother who had always protected him from whatever came their way. Their father, was a proud ex-military man who wanted nothing more than to spend the remainder of his life with his family. Their mother, was a goddess. Kind, nurturing and caring. It was upon the approval of them that they relocated so that Kuro and Sieg could be with other children.
