Substory

Six months had passed since Kagami's rebellion had been quelled. In that quiet interval, Kaede began to feel the stirrings of his true destiny... an awakening as the Blue Dragon, guardian of life and balance. Then came troubling news: the key to closing the Hell's Gate had at last been found. With Yuki at his side, Kaede sought out Okina's counsel.

The master revealed to them an ancient truth: Hell’s Gate could only be sealed through the ancient Rite of Binding, a ritual requiring not only the power of the Four Gods, but also the presence of a chosen individual: the Maiden of Binding. With that revelation came a dire warning: a shadow moved between worlds... the "Messenger of Hades"... whose purpose was to kill the Maiden and thus prevent the rite.

Bearing this burden, Kaede and Yuki embarked on a new journey: to protect this Maiden at all costs, and thereby facilitate the Rite of Sealing, no matter the danger.

One tale has ended.
One age has drawn to a close.
The ancient gate separating life and death
has vanished,
peace has returned once more.
For the swordsman of the Bakumatsu,
what fate lies ahead in the new age?
And so, a new age begins...
一つの物語は終わった
一つの時代は終わった
生死を分かつ太古の門は去り
世に再び平穏の時代が訪れるであろう
“幕末”を生きた剣士たちは
来るべき時代をいかに生き抜くであろうか
そしてまた一つの時代がはじまる
So ends one story.
So ends an era.
The ancient gate between life and death
is no more, bringing a new age of peace.
And for the warrios of the Bakumatsu,
what trials might this new age bring?
And so it begins...
