Heian-Kyo: The Cry of Blades and Scattering Blossoms

Xuanxuan's blade inscription, a sharp edge drawn from its sheath.

Power, ambition...

Kyoto's most renowned onmyoji family,

the strongest onmyoji of the Minamoto clan:

"I am your master, Minamoto no Yorimitsu."

A fingertip brushes past, and the contract is carved into her eyes. Faith, justice, deception, betrayal...

False light,

darkness lurking beneath,

mysteries shrouded in layers of fog,

will soon reveal the cruelest truth

when the blades ring and blossoms scatter.

The conspiracy behind the campaign...

Shuten, Ibaraki, Hoshiguma, Akamizu,

gather at Mount Oe!

On this barren land, where war rages like wildfire, have you ever heard these words...

"Mount Oe will never fall!"
