It is said that a samurai's spirit rests in their sword--and Konosuke can't even pick one up thanks to a cruel curse that repels anything made of metal that gets near him. Destitute and hopeless, he decides to end it all. But when a beautiful and mysterious woman saves his life and his soul, it is the beginning of Konosuke's journey into a strange world of magic that exists a step away from his own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKonosuke, Aki, and Bokutake find themselves trapped in a game of chance with a mysterious gambler, Rabbit-Eyed Tenroku, and the wager is nothing less than Tsuki's life!

The answer lies in his dark past and a famine that struck the land a few years earlier.
