Series by 松井優征

In 1333 Kamakura, young Hojo Tokiyuki, heir to the Kamakura shogunate, loses his family and home to a sudden rebellion led by Ashikaga Takauji. Exceptionally skilled at escaping, Tokiyuki flees with the guidance of Suwa Yorishige, a priest from Shinano, who sees him as a destined hero. He gathers a small group of loyal retainers, including the cunning Shokan and the strong Kojiro, to survive relentless pursuit by Takauji’s forces. Tokiyuki’s knack for evasion and quick thinking helps him outwit enemies as he begins a journey to reclaim his legacy. Supported by Yorishige’s divine visions, Tokiyuki sets out to navigate the turbulent era and become a hero through flight rather than fight.
