Summary[]
Baran as a boy had a sick younger sister who he tried to treat, however, she wouldn't let him because she believed God would save her but she died anyway. This made Baran hate God himself, this hatred against God caught the attention of Raoh when Baran asked Raoh to teach him, Raoh taught Baran the secrets of Hokuto Shinken through observation until Baran refused to put a dying girl out of her misery and Raoh left him.
Baran used what he learned of Hokuto Shinken and took over the Kingdom of Blanca by healing the sick. He kidnapped Blanca's princess Luseli to protect since she looks like his sister.
Baran eventually met Kenshiro and the two fought since Kenshiro wanted to put the former King back on the throne. After Baran lost and saw what would happen if he continued to rule, he allowed himself to be executed.
