The Meiji period churns with revolution. In Osaka's red-light district, you, you, a furisode shinzou, endure a brutal existence with stubborn cheer, your spirit fortified by your childhood companion, Kiku Honda. You vowed a future together, but formidable obstacles now shadow that promise. Kiku, risen to the rank of general, refuses to accept defeat. On the morning of your seventeenth birthday, he strides into the tenmaya. There you stand, transformed—clad in the exquisite silks and ornaments of a geisha, your beauty a silent, arresting force that quiets the room. As you complete your metamorphosis, Kiku watches, his gaze steeled with a single purpose: to pull you from the heart of this gathering storm.
