As they begin a historical journey through seven portals of time, the clan has no idea of the challenges that lie ahead. As members of the Korka Clan obtain their warrior credentials through battles with the Mongols in 1237, their village is burned to the ground by the Mongol hordes. Over the next seven centuries, the Korka Clan must endure forced migration and slave labor while working communal agricultural lands. After they eventually resist, the clan becomes foundational pillars of kingship.

Over the next four years, as she endures the deaths of family members, starvation, and brutal forced labour, Raami clings to the only remaining vestige of childhood - the mythical legends and poems told to her by her father.

And she’s also plagued with a secret: She can see yokai, the ghosts and demons that haunt the streets of Kyoto. But things accelerate from bad to worse when she learns that Shuten-doji, the demon king, will rise at the next blood moon to hunt down an ancient relic and bring the world to a catastrophic end. Not exactly skilled at fighting anything, much less the dead, Kira enlists the aid of seven powerful death gods to help her slay Shuten-doji. They include Shiro, a kitsune with boy-band looks who is more flirtatious than helpful, and O-bei, a regal demon courtier with reasons of her own for getting involved. As the confrontation with Shuten-doji draws nearer, the fate of Japan hangs in the balance. Can Kira save humankind? Or will the demon king succeed in bringing eternal darkness upon the world?
