Tamayuratei no Ohanashi

Weapon Ascension Material. Folktales tell that once upon a time, there lived an oni named Torachiyo. Torachiyo was a highly skilled warrior, such that it was once said the Torachiyo might dance amid a thousand blades, juunihitoe robes becoming shredded like falling violet petals, and yet not receive a single wound. Yet this oni would eventually betray the Shogun and revolt, becoming shorn of an arm and a horn in the battle before fleeing and slaying itself in a fit of furious madness. Hearsay holds that the stubborn oni often hold fear and distress in their hearts. That they should fantasize about eternity yet fear the moment, and are apt to become swallowed by terror or anger is their just reward. This mask depicts Torachiyo, fangs bared.

A leaf bud dropped by the monster known as the Tenebrous Mimiflora after being vanquished. It is said that when this creature emerged from the Black Tide, the first things it grew were these tender buds capable of deflecting elemental power.

A battle-worn handguard that was once mounted on an Inazuman blade. For those adept in the art of the sword, the tsuba is a defense from the edge of an opponent's blade. For beginners, it is a defense made for their own right hand, to protect it from itself.

Weapon Ascension Material. "Sumirezome Sangetsu Kogetsukan" depicts the fierce oni Torachiyo shattering the Shogun's naginata with a single bite, thus gaining the upper hand for a time. As such, masks that are based on him have finely crafted fangs. In the denouement of this tale, the wounded oni fled into the forest, deathly afraid of showing himself even to the cold moonlight. The wind that whispers through the alleys and valleys can be said to resemble his quiet cries of agony, and so there is a poetic seasonal expression for this in Inazuma: "Torachiyo's Wind."

An arrow-shaped leaf dropped by the monster known as the Tenebrous Mimiflora after being vanquished. After corroding the Ley Lines and extracting the memories within, the creature grows these leaves as a means of storing the information it has deciphered. There may be a close link between these intricately patterned leaves and the forms that their host can mimic.

A handguard mounted upon a sword of some distinction. Inazuma has a long tradition of sword-making. When making swords, smiths will often make several different weapons at once, before choosing from among them the "shinuchi," or the best weapon, while the others are known as "kageuchi."

Weapon Ascension Material. In the lost songs of the oni nursemaids, Torachiyo was an elegant young man, strong of body and fair of face. He was once a beloved lieutenant of the Shogun, and he followed her into the dark abyssal realms to repel the defiled ones, winning renown for the oni, whose blood thinned with each passing day. None now sing these songs, but the mask of a horned oni, even in a different form, still possesses power beyond the norm.

A core formed from tightly coiled leaves, the remnant of the monster known as the Tenebrous Mimiflora after being vanquished. It may appear lifeless and dull on the surface, yet a faint, ominous power can still be sensed pulsing within. People often wonder where the memories that such creatures drew from the earth go when they are slain. Perhaps the answer lies within this core...

An intricately-made handguard that was mounted upon a famed weapon. Some believe that swords have souls and lives of their own, and thus deserve their own names. Those who love their blades will be acknowledged by them in turn. But those who see their swords as friends or even lovers should be warned that this relationship is built on death and bloodshed. The passions of those who dance with their blade amid crimson showers must surely be cooled someday by fickle steel.

Weapon Ascension Material. Chiyo, a warrior of the oni tribe with the Electro Mitsudomoe emblem emblazoned on her back, was once swallowed whole by a beast from beyond this world that had a tiger's body and a serpent's tail while holding back the forces of darkness. At last, she tore the creature's innards apart from within, breaking free. This is the origin of the phrase "Chiyo the Tiger-Bite," and would be changed over many years to "Torachiyo." But within the belly of the beast, she was stained by a deep sin and saw her comrades ripped to shreds by those blood-red teeth. Steeped in darkness as far as the eye could see, she would eventually draw her sword upon the Almighty Narukami Ogosho. Her sword-arm and one horn would be cloven, and she would flee from the city into the forest like a wounded beast. There, they say that she was taken for some unknown monster and slain by the tengu, or perhaps by the Shuumatsuban — or perhaps by a scion of the Iwakura Clan training deep in the mountains, for her features had been twisted by hatred and the agony of her wounds. Or perhaps she even met the oni-masked, sword-bearing doll near the corpse of the giant serpent, and there ended her life's journey. Few among those who fought against the abyss in those days were spared pitch-dark dreams. Those who slew monsters and then became them were hardly the minority. The border between worlds grows fragile, and corruption of this kind is perhaps not merely monodirectional.
