Moonlit Enoshima
A Tale of Love, Betrayal, and Redemption on the Coast of Old Japan
The moon, a glowing silver crescent, rode high in the night sky, casting a silver glow over the tranquil waters of the Iyo Sea. The coastline of Enoshima, a small island nestled in the coastal town of Kamakura, slumbered peacefully, the only sounds being the rhythmic lapping of the waves against the shore and the soft chirping of the crickets that called the island home.It was the year 1645, the Edo period, and the Japanese Empire was reaching the peak of its prosperity under the wise rule of the Tokugawa shoguns.
