【World】

During the Sengoku Period the two main factions of ninja clans, Iga and
Kōga, warred against each other for decades.

In the year 1593, Nobunaga Oda started the Tenshō Iga war, decimating
most of the Iga ninjas in the process.

The very few that survived were absorbed into the Kōga clan, despite
their past rivalries.

After 17 years the Sengoku Period finally came to an end, and Japan was
unified.

Enju (Protagonist), daughter of Kandō Ueno, the Head of the Kōga clan,
spends her days training diligently in hope of becoming a full-fledged
ninja like her peers.

At long last she is assigned to her first mission, but finds herself
caught in a dark conspiracy――.
