Yoshino Mountain
The boy, holding the edge of his beautiful kimono.
Together with his canine sibling were running around the fields and mountain.
It was his late mother's request.
In his hometown, The young boy until his coming of age was raised by his mother as a girl.
His canine sibling yoshiro was a dog found by his mother and raised like a family.
Some people there wondered at the guise and teased him for being siblings with a dog.
Without ever hearing the reason from his mother's mouth,
the boy got to say goodbye to his mother for the rest of his life.
His father taught him that the only reason for this was his mother's love,
and the boy lived according to his parents' words.
That is the path of [filial piety].
The path of virtue, followed according to the instructions by the parents and the elders.
But the boy has lost everyone he could follow.
And the day of the departure comes.
Together with the beads of [filial piety] that fell from Yoshiro's corpse.
It was carved into the boy's left hand, along with a bruise that looked like a peony.
The boy left his hometown.
In search of a new [filial] target to fulfill his duty.
Eventually, the path the boy follow in that world would intersect with the remaining seven virtues.
Something to be admired, something beautiful.
Eight virtues that shine in the world. But--.
But the boy suddenly thought about it.
Is there an answer to what my mother wanted to teach me on my journey through this world?
And he also wondered if there was an answer to the days spent as siblings with Yoshiro.
When a young boy seeks beyond the [eight], a different world's path opens up to the edge of infinite color.
