Step into the shoes of Tomoe Gozen, the legendary female samurai, and take part in the bloody Gempei War # "Tomoe was especially beautiful, with white skin, long hair, and charming features. She was also a remarkably strong archer, and as a swords-woman she was a warrior worth a thousand, ready to confront a demon or a god, mounted or on foot ... Whenever a battle was imminent, Yoshinaka sent her out as his first captain, equipped with strong armor, an oversized sword, and a mighty bow" --Tale of the Heike-- 1080 A.D. The strongest clans of japan, the Heike and the Genji, are at the dawn of a five year conflict, later to be known as the Gempei war. Kiso Yoshinaka, a powerful Genji lord, responds to the call of the late prince mochihito to raise arms against the Heike, and heads north, towards the mountains. Yoshinaka''s most trusted warrior, a woman that goes by the name of Tomoe, is left with a handful of defenders at the castle. Informed of this weakness the Heike dispatch forces, and clash with the defenders headed by Tomoe. By nightfall, she is the only one left.
