Griffins are supposed to be extinct. So when Yukiko and her warrior father Masaru are sent to capture one for the Shogun, they fear that their lives are over. Everyone knows what happens to those who fail the Shogun . . . But the mission proves far less impossible, and far more deadly, than anyone expects - and soon Yukiko finds herself stranded alone in her country's last wilderness, with only a furious, broken-winged griffin for company. Even though she saved his life, all she knows for certain is that he'd rather see her dead than help her. But trapped together, Yukiko and the griffin discover a friendship that neither of them expected. Meanwhile, the country around them is on the brink of collapse. A toxic fuel, chi, is slowly choking the land; the omnipotent, metal-clad Guild is publicly burning those that they deem Impure; and the Shogun, happily ensconced in his palace, cares about nothing but his own power. Yukiko has never been happy about any of this, but it's only when she learns the truth of what the Shogun has done, both to her country and to her own family that she decides something needs to change. Enlisting the aid of a rebellious Guildsman and the Kage themselves, Yukiko and the griffin return to civilization in the hopes of saving her country - and herself.
