Falling Cherry Blossoms

As the cherry blossoms fell between us, all I could see was the sharp edge of Tamotsu's katana.

Yume, a Messenger of Inari, ran away from home five years ago, fleeing her father and the way he used her visions to gain control of the region. Now engaged to the love of her life, Shun, she thought she had left her past behind her and could live a normal, vision-free life. But when her father's samurai comes to bring her back, Yume must decide what's more important.

Obeying her father's commands.

Or protecting the kitsune living inside her.
