In a complex social hierarchy, amid dissembling clans and fractured allegiances, there is no place for passionate young love.

Meanwhile, Takeo—s beloved Shirakawa Kaede, heir to the Murayama and alone in the world, must find a way to unify the domain she has inherited, as she fights off the advances of would-be suitors and hopes against fading hope that Takeo will return to her…
