Over 1,000 years ago, Mt. Fumi violently erupted, sending fiery fumes into the heavens
and signaling a revolt in Mutsu, where over 150,000 troops swept over Mutsu in no
time, overran Dewa, and invaded the Kanto provinces.
The raging rebel army divided
the nation in two and set sight on the capital. It was just as the Imperial Court had
relocated to the new capital of Heian-kyo in Yamashiro Province and set out to build a
new nation of peace.
Having to hold Hizawa castle for two months until the Imperial
army can disperse the rebels falls to a young samurai named Oda Takemaro who
has devised a strategy that may be able to save the nation.
