Utawarerumono

A young girl finds a mysterious, masked man with severe injuries lying alone in the forest. She brings the man home and carefully treats his wounds. When the stranger finally wakes, he remembers nothing of his past.

When a sacred shrine is destroyed, the Queen of the Forest responds by killing innocent villagers, and Hakuoro joins the desperate effort to appease the angry spirit.

A village elder appears to have vanished from the village, but Hakuoro eventually discovers her tending to a girl with an unusual sickness.

When the elder is murdered, the devastated villagers set out to extract a full measure of vengeance against those responsible for her death.

Hakuoro seizes control of the captured station and begins planting the seeds of rebellion in the minds and hearts of the oppressed citizens.

More soldiers join Hakuoro’s rebellion, and the masked man soon finds himself locked in battle with a mighty samurai.
