On the shores of the mystical Lake Yakumo sit three villages.

His cruel actions force the new young Lord of the clan, Juro, into hiding among their neighboring allies, the Nagoshi. With the Nagoshi also under threat from Mikoshiba, Juro's bride-to-be Sayuri prays to the towering stone idol situated on the island in the middle of the lake, but Mikoshiba fearing warnings of retribution for his evil acts from the ancient god Daimajin, orders his men to destroy it, an unspeakable act that cannot go unpunished.
