From publisher blurb: Fallen blossoms do not return to branches. —Japanese proverb Japan is moving into the Edo Period. New laws and new ways of thinking wash over the land, and with a new order come new threats to humanity. Take a look at the Vigil in a time where samurai transition from warlords to bureaucrats, Japan massively and lethally rejects outside influence, and when Edo rapidly grows into a world power. This is a single chapter from the larger work, Chronicles of Darkness: Dark Eras.
