About the game
After a brief period of tranquility, the empire faced an unexpected challenge that no one could have predicted. A new figure emerges, initiating a conflict that will not only affect the inhabitants of the plane of the living, but will take the action far beyond, to the Yomi, where yokai and spirits seek their chance to break a balance that has remained unchanged for eons. Our new group of protagonists, including some old friends, will have to face a threat that will test these mere mortals, as they try to find their way back home. —description from the publisher
