Synopsis
Moral bride Hisa seeks to transform her ruthless warrior husband into a man of honor.
From the day of her wedding, Hisa was recognized for her extraordinary moral strength by her family and the people. The same cannot be said of her husband, who sacrifices lives on behalf of his lord. She would like to instill her compassion for all human beings... But is a woman able to turn a soldier into a real man of honor? (Source: Editions Delcourt, translated)
