In the night, he and his Samurai attacked mercilessly. It was now up to the lord’s wife, Lady Saori, to take up arms and lead the defense against their would-be invaders. But despite her bravery, she was outnumbered a hundredfold. She ended up all alone, surrounded—the last defender of a burning legacy. Ridden with guilt, smothered by failure.

Battle Pass & Legacy Pass
Katsuo was the head of a major Samurai clan appointed by the emperor himself. He was a brutal warlord, starving for power and envious of all that wasn’t his. Although he was supposed to remain satisfied with his lordship, he saw an opportunity to add Castle Chiyo and its territory to his name. He knew it was a treacherous act, but he believed the emperor would understand. Men of ambition always did.
