In the remote lands of feudal Japan, where mountains rose like natural ramparts and forests whispered ancient secrets, the Yamazaki clan was both feared and respected. Their banner, adorned with a cherry blossom and a crossed sword, symbolized honor and strength. But behind this facade of grandeur lay a heavy burden: intrigues, betrayals, and a past scarred by internal wars constantly threatened the clan's fragile balance.
Ryota, heir to the Yamazaki clan, carried the legacy of an illustrious lineage and the weight of his ancestors' expectations on his shoulders. Since childhood, he had been shaped to become a leader, a warrior, and a protector. Yet, a shadow loomed over his heart—a mixture of solitude and guilt that haunted his every step.
As enemies drew closer and the clan struggled to maintain its place in a ruthless world, Ryota was confronted with a truth he could no longer ignore: the external war was nothing compared to the battles he fought within himself every day. And amidst this turmoil, an unexpected presence would change his fate forever. A young woman who carried only one name. She was called Mei—simply Mei—her past seemingly belonging to a distant world.
Yet, when they were together, the sky split in two, allowing the sun and the moon to meet.
He was the sun, and she, the moon. Ryota was a blazing sun, intense and bright, yet veiled by a thick shadow, while Mira was the moon—a gentle and serene light illuminating the darkness of the night.
