The Adventure
The four great samurai each go on a journey to the pinnacle of the warrior's spirit and face battles, trials, and tribulations across multiple realms.
In the world of the mundane, Kusunoki Masashige is informed of his brother's death and betrayal by his former allies and master. Before he can come to a decision on whether to follow his brother’s path, bandits attack the village, and he is forced to bear arms and break out of his non-combatant shell. Confronted with the weight of his brother’s sacrifice and his desire for redemption, he resolves to set out on a journey to become a warrior.
Traversing into the deeper shadows of the realms, Tomoe Gozen wakes up in the Underworld. Deemed an impure soul and considered to be a ‘witch’ due to her prowess in battle and the many heads of men she’s claimed. Tomoe Gozen is given a chance to redeem her karma by defeating 8,000 great demons in the Underworld, one thousand for every circle of hell.
Rising through the boundary, Miyamoto Musashi roams the in-between, neither dead nor alive. He is tasked with guarding the boundary between the supernatural and the mundane. As the guardian of the Otherworld, he maintains the boundary, guides the souls in limbo, and keeps malevolent beings in line.
Ascending further, Sanada Yukimura is “The Warrior of the Gods”. The gods send him on different missions and task him with guarding the gates of Heaven. He subdues rebellions among demons and smaller gods and dispels threats to Heaven.
The four warriors take on different paths that occasionally overlap in the overarching branches of the karmic cycle. Across dimensions, their battle cries roar and echo in harmony.
