A mysterious man comes to Okiban. A capital, once much more vibrant. But what are his reasons for coming here. Other than to repay a debt, of course. Few believed that it is the truth. As much as it actually was. 

All the while he seeks someone in particular, a girl from his own past which he has nothing more than a simple token from. The only clue he was allowed or known. But that will not deter him from seeking it. 

All has changed for Sachiko. With her father's death, and his land being fought over. Even before her brother went back to be the Daimyo of the land. She is the only one who can stop all of this, and she will because even her own fate depends on it. And she doesn't have any wish to let it be ruled by another ever again .

 But as her father's death seemed to be tied to a man who made a single appearance, but instilled fear during his first appearance and the only time he was known to be active. But the methods were so brutal, and so incredibly cold that it stunned most of them. She needs to figure it out, and ask whether she was hunting down the same person.
