Book IV of Tales Of The Otori. Lord Otori and his consort Kaede have ruled for over sixteen years. The three countries have become rich, peaceful and prosperous countries. The sacred bird, houou, nests in Terayama and a fabled creature, the kirin, appears on the shore. But their success attracted the attention of the Emperor and his general, the warlord Saga Hideki, who all covet the wealth of the Three Countries. At the same time, acts of violence and betrayal from the past will not stay buried. The renegade Tribe family, Kikuta, seeks revenge on Takeo for the murder of their leader; they have an eager ally in his brother-in-law Arai Zenko who has never been able to forget or forgive his own father's shameful death.
