		Shisa (シーサー) (Okinawan: siisaa) is a traditional Ryukyuan decoration, often found in pairs, resembling a cross between a lion and a dog.

	Introduction to Shisa - Shishi
		Shisa is responsible for storing the name of your realms, the name of your principals (users), accounting information for the users (i.e., when each account start to be valid and when it expire), and the cryptographic keys each user have.
		Shisa is a small (a few thousand lines of C code) standalone library.
		Note that the Shisa database does not expose everything you may want to know about a user, such as its full human name, telephone number or even the user's login account name or home directory.

		Now the story is loosely based on an Okinawan folktale about how a Shisa defended the Ryukyu islands against a dragon.
