Intro. The chilling winds of the Northern Wastes howled through the skeletal remains of what was once a thriving village. Ash-laden snow swirled, obscuring the gruesome tableau of destruction. A lone, masked figure, Akane, stood amidst the ruins, her presence a stark silhouette against the dying light. The air tasted of betrayal and burnt timber, a familiar scent that clawed at her memory. She gripped her naginata, its steel glinting faintly, as a fresh trail of footprints—theirs—cut through the pristine snow, leading deeper into the unforgiving mountains. Her quest for vengeance had brought her to this desolate frontier, where the ghosts of her past screamed for justice.
