### A Firelit Nights

It was a day of great celebration for the people, they formed groups to visit the shrine, only to fall to a terrible fire.

The tongues of flame sealed off all escape, and prayers for help ended in being burnt alive, even the cries of pain were masked by the alarm bells, when the inhabitants of the capital awoke, they were already trapped in a sea of fire......

That night I saw, a woman with nine tails, watching Miyako become engulfed by the sea of fire, stroking her beautiful face as she smiled a terrifying smile......

### Seven Nights

The great youkai Tamamo no Mae was born with nine tails, extremely strong, and easily got anything he wanted. Creatures as weak as humans never crossed his sight, until that day by the shrine, the woman's flute playing entered his heart, and he met his fate's enemy.

The woman birthed a pair of twins, but before he could come to enjoy parenting, heavenly lightning struck - the woman was a miko who served the gods, and was not allowed to marry, lest she suffer divine punishment.

As the lightning descended, the woman sacrificed herself to block the lightning for Tamamo no Mae and the children. After that, it rained for 7 nights. Some say those were the tears of Tamamo no Mae for his lost lover.

### A Blood Night

Tamamo took the appearance of the miko. Taking his two children Ui and Aika into seclusion in the mountains near Kyoto, he met Kuzunoha, Kuzunoha gave the children bracelets to suppress their demonic aura and taught them how to take human form.

They passed ten years in peace.

But one day Aika accidentally broke her bracelet, and her demon aura was detected by a nearby onmyouji.

Tragedy descended......

The childless Tamamo no Mae in a fit of rage destroyed the entire mountain with a burst of demonic energy, vowing to pay back his enemies eye for eye.

### Wind Whisper

Tonight was extremely cold, but Yuki Douji liked it. Everything cold, the blowing snow, the night, and the chill edge of the katana, calmed him.

But some fellows who couldn't read the mood would constantly chatter...... the wind brought with it the words of the koyou by the bonfire.

"Tamamo no Mae-sama turned Kyoto into a living hell"

"For someone to go to Kyoto at a time like this, they must also be a terrifying person......"

Yuki Douji polished his sword expressionlessly, but upon hearing "Tamamo no Mae's" name, his hand paused.

The visage reflected in the blade, was colder than the deepest sheets of ice.

### The Beginning

The shrine's miko liked to play with children.

"Miko nee, let's build a snowman!"

And thus, a snowman was born on that winter day.

"Miko nee, let's give him a sword!"

The nine-tailed fox by her side unsheathed his sword and hung it on the snowman.

"Miko nee, let's give him a name!"

The miko tied a butterfly bow on the snowman.

"How about Yuki Douji?"

Night. Amid great gusts of wind, the demon aura on the sword seeped into the ice and snow. The empty eyes of the snowman grew bright, he had gained life. "What is the meaning of life?" The newborn Yuki Douji was very confused. "Journey and find it." The kind miko smiled gently and answered him. "You will understand once you find people important to you." Thus, Yuki Douji set out on a journey to find the answer.

### The End

Yuki Douji navigated many mountains and crossed many streams, he met a pair of compassionate elderly folks in the mountain, they adopted him and they spent the winter together.

Yuki Douji thought that he'd melt after winter passed, but the demonic aura on the blade maintained his human form.

At the end of the winter, he said his farewells and returned to his journey, but before leaving, the old lady told him "This place is your home, you are welcome whenever."

The next winter, Yuki Douji returned, but it was ruins what once was a tiny hut. They say it was a cataclysmic battle between the great demon nine-tailed fox and onmyouji, destroying all. The words of the elderly lady still resounded. Yuki Douji finally understood the love and meaning that the miko spoke of. Yuki Douji sheathed the blade, he knew where Tamamo no Mae was heading towards. Flurries of wind and snow followed in his wake as he walked alone in the direction of Kyoto.

### Purple Pupil

When a person's eyes are removed soon after death and injected with demonic energy, they no longer lose their glimmer but shine bright like jewels.

Doumeki likes to collect eyes, she likes to read the memories of their original hosts.

But the memories are always colourless and ugly.

Only that girl's eyes are different.

Her memories are beautiful, just like the reflection of the nine-tailed fox Tamamo no Mae in her eyes.

### The Tranaformatiom

Tamamo no Mae fell in love with the miko and was to receive divine punishment, and the miko sacrificed herself to block it.

The legendary Tamamo no Mae and the miko, were the parents of the girl in her memories.

Tamamo no Mae was in anguish over the death of the miko, revealing his original form of a nine-tailed fox, the berserking demonic energy scared the girl and her twin elder brother that they wailed in unison.

Tamamo no Mae heard their cries, the terrifying demonic power vanished, as well as that evil nine-tailed fox.

The miko once again stood in front of the children, smiling gently with outstretched arms.

### Burning Memories

In truth the girl knew that the woman raising them was not their mother, but their father Tamamo no Mae, but she and her brother tacitly kept this a secret, like safeguarding a dream filled with love.

Yet, that passing onmyouji used karmic fire to destroy everything.

Through the purple eye, it was as if the karmic fire was also charring Doumeki's skin, Doumeki sank into confusion.

"Despite dying in such pain, why is there no hatred, is it because there was already enough love? How admirable......"

The Doumeki who was unable to untangle herself from looking through the girl's memories, embedded the purple eye into her face. She thought, perhaps then she could be like the girl, and receive lots of love...
