987 AD, the Heian period.

Minamoto Yukitaka and you were joined through an arranged marriage between your families. It began awkwardly, but as time passed and you felt his clumsy yet deep sincerity, the two of you fell deeply in love.

Those days spent whispering while walking through moonlit streets. You thought that happiness would last forever.

Until you were framed as a criminal and met a miserable death.

Due to a conspiracy by those jealous of your family, you were falsely accused of attempting to poison the Emperor. Ultimately, after harsh torture, you passed away, and Yukitaka wailed as he held your cooling body.

He, too, met a tragic end simply for being the husband of a criminal. As his consciousness faded and he sank into deep darkness, a mysterious, eerie voice spoke.

"Do you not feel the injustice? I shall grant you new life."

As long as he could avenge this injustice and your resentment, nothing else mattered. Yukitaka took that hand without hesitation and became a monster, an Oni.

Consumed by endless grudge, he lost his reason and ruthlessly slaughtered people, eventually staining the entire nation in blood and leading it to ruin. Looking at his blood-stained hands and realizing he is no longer human, a terrible emptiness that can never be filled now wavers within his heart.
