After Aoi helped the tengu father and son reconcile, Raiju, a noble from the capital, becomes interested in Aoi. Meanwhile, Aoi follows Nobunaga to the back of the pine grove only to find a large silver beast collapsed in front of a crumbling shrine.
Ranmaru and I didn't have anyone
to turn to when we were small.

a nadie cuando éramos niños.
Enfants, nous étions seuls au monde.
O Ranmaru e eu não tínhamos ninguém
quando éramos crianças.
