When her escort is attacked on the way to the imperial city and she is left for dead, Mariko decides to take the opportunity to solve her own problem instead of letting the men do it for her. When she finds the Black Clan, an outcast group of warriors and the ones she blames for the attack, she infiltrates their ranks dressed as a boy in order to learn how best to bring them down.
