Adashima Haru was born in the lap of luxury. He lives with his mother in the heart of Kyoto, in a spacious home with servants to tend to his every need. Haru has everything a young man could ever want… At a glance, at least. In actuality, however, Haru’s life isn’t so perfect. Haru’s mother is stern and controlling, and she dictates every facet of Haru’s life. She is adamant that Haru should dress like a woman, and she constantly berates him for not behaving like a young lady. Haru's life is dull and uninteresting... until he runs into a thief, Kishou, during a rare shopping excursion. After discovering that Haru is a young man, not a young woman, Kishou breaks into Haru’s home in the dead of night in an attempt to blackmail him – and, in so doing, Kishou’s destiny becomes irrevocably entwined with Haru’s. On that fateful night, Haru and Kishou are set a task: to travel the country slaying monsters, so that they might break a centuries-old curse that has plagued Haru’s family for generations. 100k worth of text (approx 4-8 hours of reading) A linear story with no choices/branches A large cast of colourful characters An optional patch for a couple of extra adult scenes Exciting fight scenes Romance!

Notes: This story contains some fantasy fight scenes with some brief descriptions of violence. There is some artwork of wounded characters, but it isn't explicit or overtly gory. The characters curse on occasions, and make veiled sexual references. There is a scene where two male characters bathe together naked in a hot spring, and it is implied that these two characters are in a sexual relationship, though nothing is explicitly depicted.
