Somewhere in the near future of cold Japan, the House of Takemikazuchi, a group of matchless assassins lie in wait within their amoral world. Once royal guards to rulers of a neighboring kingdom, they became expatriates due to modernization. Now, they are assassins for hire, willing to kill anyone with a price on their head, attempting to stay afloat in a world where the art of the sword is slowly dying, and even when honor and loyalty amongst the ranks of the Takemikazuchi drift away in the bitter air of Japan. A true heir of the Takemikazuchi bloodline, Yuki (newcomer Yumiko Shaku), discovers the secret behind the death of her mother, Princess Azora, thus turning her against her fellow tribe in order to find the truth and kill those who dishonored her family. Along the way, she finds comfort in an activist and governmental terrorist who is also riding along the sharp, stinging moral edge of life.
