Driven by a centuries-old hatred, each clan will do anything to annihilate the other.

Meanwhile the Iga clan turns to its last, best hope: their new leader, Gennosuke, the only one who can defeat the formidable Kouga leader, Oboro. But is she willing to kill the man she loves? As the war grows more desperate, will true love be the next casualty?
