Overview


Amaterasu has been delivered to Nippon as an answer to a prayer to repeat the heroic deeds of the great wolf Shiranui. Amaterasu must watch over the people of Nippon by using the celestial brush to keep evil at bay throughout the land.

Amaterasu returns to the village Kamiki on the 100th anniversary of the great battle where Shiranui and Nagi joined forces to defeat Orochi.

This powerful god has the power to command the Celestial Brush.  A century ago, Amaterasu lost the physical body that the god had been inhabiting during a bitter struggle to seal away Orochi.  With the help of the wood sprite Sakuya, Amaterasu inhabited the statue of an ancient village god and returned to the world.  The heated battle against Orochi had left Amaterasu without many powers held in times past, but Amaterasu will journey to recover those powers while saving the life of the land.
