Lore
This pack is set in Japan, in the Warring States period. The land is fractured, torn between warring states, and villages burn as civilians are caught in the merciless tide of civil war. From the spilling of blood and the collapse of sacred places, more and more yōkai stir, wandering freely across the overworld.
Amid the chaos, whispers speak of a dragon god, Ryūjin, whose power may be bound to the rising yōkai and the unrest consuming the land.
