End of the Muromachi Period -- the late 16th century:
The power of the Ashikaga government is on the decline after the Onin/Bunmei civil war.
Civil unrest is on the rise and conflict rocks province after province.
Even the Gaian province Utakata, long peacefully ruled by the House of Ichijo, is now threatened.
However, something in Utakata gives even the most power-hungry lord pause -- the prestigious Asuka Ninja Clan.

It was thought that the combined protection of the House of Ichijo and the Asuka ninja would preserve the peace in Utakata.
But this time of peace came to an end when the Asuka Ninja clan was destroyed in a single night...

But what happened to the possible survivors of the Asuka Ninja clan?
