What happens when your entire life is a glorified lie?
Kaito is the son of the Shogun, heir to the Minamoto clan, and the future leader of Jakai. At least, that's what he's been lead to believe. In truth, he's the byproduct of his times—and after a feudal lord is found dead, the Minamoto clan can no longer standby while their enemies build alliances and craft weapons for a singular purpose.
Now, Kaito must exchange comfort and ignorance for the ability to stay alive and knowledge after a bounty for his death forces him to leave home and begin his life anew with the insight that everything he's known up until now has been a lie. Accompanied by no one but his father's childhood friend, Kaito ventures to his birthplace to try and prevent a war between the two parts of his life. Can he reconcile his mysterious past or will the truth and toxicity of war consume him as it has the rest of the world.
