Despite her father being of noble blood, Mariposa Sanchez Tanaka has lived her whole life with the stigma of being a servant’s daughter. With grim marriage prospects, she has wanted to devote her life to studying the ways of the Kunoichi. Of course, there is only so much one can learn from a tattered piece of paper found in a sack of rice flour. Still, she is determined to live a life with purpose—which becomes clear only after foolishly losing a precious heirloom. Resolved to recover it, other problems arise and she finds herself in the town of Blessings, seemingly taking her farther away from her goal. Will a handsome local help bring her back to it... and discover her true path?

Once destined for great things, Shin Bushido settled into small town living with the hope of escaping his past. Resigned to a life of quiet anonymity, he’s worked his way from the position of a lowly blacksmith’s apprentice to the owner of a lauded smithy. Life is perfect—or so he thinks until a foreigner working in a house of geishas catches his eye. Unable to resist, he gets caught up in her cause and enjoys the opportunity of being a sensei once more. However, master becomes student when he realizes he, too, has something to learn about life, legends... and maybe even love.
