Hanami ( 花見 ）

"Sakura is the most beautiful and aromatic flowers created. But the beauty is transient, it will last until the first fall and comes back next spring. It symbolizes life, death, renewal, hope, love and lastly, the cycle of life."

Born inside the Sakura forest, Sakuya feels caged. Even if her mother is the leader of the Magumi, she feels left out and hated by them. Stubborn as a mule, she uses her magic secretly not by weaving, dress making, designing, singing and dancing just like other Magumi, but she uses it for weaponry, creation and self enhancement even if by means of losing the femininity the Magumi's believed to be one of their precious character that the Kami's (deity) loved. She is not knowledgeable about what's beyond the forest, but deep down she knows that she's different, she knows that she is a he.

As an outsider accidentally comes in, the Magumi was fooled to believed that she is a Kami (deity) not knowing the great danger ahead. As the Sakura forest falls to destruction, the game of life and death begins.
