A young Juuza woman watches her hidden world collapse into history that doesn't know her name. Sousou's armies are coming, and she has no choice but to step into a war that will decide whether her people survive as footnotes or disappear entirely. This is a story about being forced to matter when you were never meant to be seen.
A cat-eared girl named Kan'u belongs to the Juuza, the 13th zodiac sign pushed to the margins of society. Her people have lived in hiding for generations, content to remain unseen while humans wage their endless conflicts. That peace shatters when the collapsing Han Dynasty ignites civil war across the Three Kingdoms, and armies sweep through the countryside hunting resources and recruits. Sousou's forces invade Kan'u's isolated village, upending everything she's known and forcing her into a world she never wanted to join. The arrival of war doesn't just threaten her survival, it complicates the bonds she forms with those drawn to her amid the chaos. Romance blooms in unexpected moments as Kan'u navigates between two worlds: the humanity she's been taught to fear and the Juuza heritage she can't escape. This single-episode story captures a pivotal moment when isolation becomes impossible and connection becomes a weapon as dangerous as any sword on the battlefield.
