The year is 1931, the 64th year of the Meiji era. The 15th Shogun, Yoshinobu Tokugawa, continues to wield absolute power thanks to complete monopolization of a special natural resource known as "Ryumyaku." Supporting the Tokugawa regime from the shadows are the deadly agents of the covert organization known as Nue.
Not a path that any man could get through.
لا يستطيع أي بشريّ عبور ذلك الطريق
Menschen kommen da
nicht durch. Aber …
Un humain ne pourrait pas y passer.
Una persona non riuscirebbe mai 
a passare per quella strada.
Não é um caminho que pessoas possam usar.
Человеку там не пройти.
