History

Byakko

The Enmyou-ji Okunoin deep in the mountains of Katsuoka-cho is a place where practitioners seek their own path, distancing themselves from earthly desires. At this sacred place watched by the kitsune, those wishing to transcend delusion gather and dedicate themselves to long and arduous practice. In this place filled with profound silence, the kitsune believes that heart and body become one, and people can approach their true nature.
