Profile Picture

A young girl named Kaya has been away from her village for a while and when she comes back her first sight of it is not good. When she sees it, she can see smoke coming from the village buildings and that the ancient pine was pulled down and burned. All of this was the result of the Ookami- the wolf clan. The wolf clan had taken many of Kaya's people as slaves and some of the ones that were taken were part of her family-the chieftain’s family.
