Early life
Satou Kotomi was born in Toshi-bu as the third child of Suzuki Cho and Satou Daigo in the summer of 7654, thus belonging to the Daikon Blade of Nichibotsu. She went by her given name Satou Haniko until age 13. As a resident of Toshi-bu, she got a strict Kakuri upbringing, rather isolated from the rest of Sokokan society. She was identified as a Guso soulkeeper at age 13, resulting in an education separated from her blade at the Toshi-bu kotan.
Soul keeper education
She changed her name to Satou Arisu, indicating the new start as an active soul keeper, at age 18. She entered the new A Kaiten congregation soul keeper group Aki Arin and started performing in Toshi-bu, Nushudarawa and Carls by. The group had 4 soul keepers at first (7672) then extended to 6 (7674) before moving to Berewan on Shuuen in 7676 with two other soul keepers and two new non-soul keeper members. In Berewan she entered university studying public health issues.
In 7679 she married Sareta Kenji, ending her career as an active soul keeper. She become mother in 7680, the same year she started a masters education at university. Upon graduation in 7683 she moved back to Mirei. Her master's thesis took up the issue of children's circumstances in current urban planning issues. She took up a job at Mirei state as a spatial planning consultant, while her husband became state MP for health issues. In order to mark her service for the local community instead of the A Kaiten congregation, she changed her name to Satou Kotomi.
Member of parliament
When Miyashori Nobu was forced to resign as MP for the Kakuri minority, the Kakuri leadership appointed the young civil servant Satou Kotomi as new federal MP based on her solid commitment to public health issues, cultural values, natural resources and children's rights. While the plan was that Sareta Kenji would follow her to Kyusigai, he felt passed by Miseru-ne leadership in his role as member of the healthcare committee at the state level. It led to a marital crisis and divorce, where Satou Kotomi's position as MP came under threat from federal committee members who thought her credentials were too thin to serve as an MP. Miseru-ne however held on to her appointment, giving the young MP the opportunity to become a member of the federal health committee.
Currently, Satou Kotomi is residing at Hotel Exemplar Mirei in Kyusigai's Kawana district, together with the other representatives of the state of Mirei.
