At the centre of the estate is the family patriarch: the drunken, sword-wielding father Tetsunoshin. His mistress, the icy, alluring Lady Oryu, is also housed in the estate along with their illegitimate daughter Yachiyo --beautiful and unstable--and the drink-ravaged Furugami heir, Naoki Sengoku. With each family member holding onto their own dark secrets, tensions between them ride high. But this family feud turns bloody when the mutilated, headless body of Yachiyo's fiancé is discovered in the Furugami estate.
