The Tales of the Otori.
In the style of the small, palm-size Japanese books, they will lure new readers into the world of the Otori. In this episode: Takeo was Lord Otori's adopted son, and bound by blood to the Tribe, a secret network of trained assassins. Kaede was Lord Otori's betrothed, and Takeo's true love. Now, in the wake of the Lord's death, they are torn apart. Abducted by his teacher Kenji, Takeo is condemned to work as an assassin, an enforced occupation that his father sacrificed his own life to escape. However he still dreams of claiming the name Otori. At the same time, Kaede, heir to Maruyama, returns home to a shattered family and an uncertain future, quickly realising that she can rely only on herself.
