Kuro is a young, admired warrior of the Tiger Clan. And he is pathetically in love with Nara, the village's most admired girl. Arrogant and unimpressed, she has yet to spare him a single glance. But when a routine trip goes wrong, Kuro puts his life between her, his fellow foragers, and what lurks in the forest's depths. Will this display of courage open Nara's eyes and heart to him, instead of his many rivals?
