Far away, in the Shadowlands, a city waits beneath a sunless sky. Within, the servants of the Shadow coil about an ancient gate, destroying the spirits of RokuganŐs past and bringing an end to the EmpireŐs future. A mighty army marches south, across the twisted wastes, to join in battle against the greatest oni ever spawned. Another army, that of the Moto, charges toward its destiny told by a prophecy filled with flame. This is the time to seize your destiny... or die trying.
