The samurai was gifted a divine blade, which had been blessed by the shrine maiden. Despite its power, the samurai was not yet satisfied with what he had received. Thus, in the middle of the night, he plunged the weapon through the shrine maiden's heart, and absorbed her divine power. The blade would flash with power so potent that it would gleam like the petals of a sakura tree. With this sword, he led his forces across the land, crushing all who opposed him.
