The year is 972 A.D. in Kyoto, the capital of ancient Japan. The city has grown corrupt and crumbling, filled with greedy samurai and onmyoji who care only for political power. To make things worse, famine and disease spread unchecked. When the Imperial Court can no longer ignore the city’s plight, they call upon Minamoto no Raiko, a renowned samurai famed for his archery, to retrieve a legendary gem said to possess the power to save the world. But Raiko falls ill before he can begin his mission. In secret, his youngest sister, Hikaru, sets out in his place. Along her journey for the gem, she encounters many people and faces countless adventures.
