Description

Betrayal of mind. Betrayal of power. Betrayal of heart.For centuries the Rōjū council silenced all who opposed them, spreading lies and killing innocents to insure that female Kisōshi were little more than a myth. Now, with the corrupt council deposed, the land of Gensokai reels as it takes its first steps towards recovery. As the New Council attempts to gather its allies and subdue its enemies Taka takes charge of a frontline infirmary, placing her in the heart of battle and forcing her to rely on a person she cannot possibly trust. At the same time, Mishi sets out to lure a vicious band of mountain raiders into the open. Yet she'll have to face down more than bandits if she hopes to survive. Her mind is betraying her, and she fears it is only a matter of time before her kisō and katana turn against her too.Surrounded by enemies and with betrayal only ever a heartbeat away, can Mishi and Taka survive long enough to bring peace to their fractured homeland?
