History

Byakko

Eight sacred blades gleam within this shrine, where warriors once sought strength and protection for battles both inner and outer. Now pilgrims come seeking refuge from harm's cruel touch, finding solace in the kami's eternal guardianship. The sword that cuts through doubt and delusion dwells here still, ja.
