■ Synopsis
It is said that even now, Tengu dwell upon Mount Seigen. At its foot, secret springs bubble up and a pleasure district flourishes, where the most beautiful courtesan was called the "Tengu's Bride." But how many people today truly know that the name was originally the title a Tengu bestowed upon their one and only lifelong companion? This is a tale of how that forgotten ancient legend might just begin to move once more.

■ Seigen Onsen
A famous hot spring at the heart of Seigen Village, a spa town sprawling at the foot of Mount Seigen. It bustles as a healing retreat by day and a pleasure district by night, a hidden gem visited by travelers, samurai, and wealthy merchants from across the land. It has long been loved as a spiritual spring blessed by the mountain where the Tengu reside.
