Lore
Our story is set in the period of the rise of the
samurai. A time when sovereignty fell to in the emperor
and honor marked the place and destiny of each person.
The Nara period is over and we enter the heart of the
Heian period. The epicenter of life is located in the
capital of the Heian-kyō empire and to the
northwest of that city is Mount Kurama. The exuberant
flora dominated by huge cedar trees hides a strange lair
within the forest of the hill. Night falls on Mount Kurama and a huge blood moon illuminates the darkness of the forest. |
Among the undergrowth of the hill, a small clearing can be distinguished whose protagonist is a huge camphor tree, a robust millenary tree covered with a grayish and rough bark, witness of the passage of time. Around it are about twenty people, made up of young people of different ages accompanied by other apparently adult figures. The group witnesses the magic of one of them, who seems to be their master. This masked figure stands under the watchful eye of the camphor, while muttering some intelligible words. The rest stand by, watching him attentively. |
The atmosphere gives off a powerful energy and what
seems to be a ritual begins. The magic is transmitted
through the bark and with a fragment of the skin of the
enormous tree, which is torn off by the master, a small
mask is cautiously and precisely made. Once the carving is finished, the master bathes the piece in a somewhat viscous ointment and then places it on top of a stone altar that sits above the roots of the camphor tree. As the mask rests on it, the master searches through the folds of his kimono for a small jagged stone. |
Its power is felt at the moment when the rune is
appreciated and a dark feeling floods the minds and
hearts of those present. A curse falls upon it.
The halo of the blood moon illuminated the scene and its light plays its part in this ritual. The master solemnly places the rune on the mask and in just a few seconds it rises showing the power it contains. A strange and dense energy that gives hypnotic and icy colors dazzles all around it. However, this spectacle is ephemeral and fleeting, the mask falls on the altar and it shows the rune now carved on the forehead. |
Silence falls. The children begin to exchange glances,
there is a mixture of nerves and expectation in their
eyes, except in the pupils of one of them. With the certainty of knowing what the next step was, he approaches the master with the certainty that he had been the chosen one. The master and the child look at each other and with a slight gesture he brings the mask closer from the altar. The little boy takes it calmly and looks at it briefly before placing it on his face. Already only his almond shaped black eyes were visible, deep and calm as the sea. |
The stillness and calm of the summer night is broken on
Mount Kurama by high-pitched cries of pain and agony.
His black eyes are bloodshot, the suffering of the
transformation caused by the reaction of the ointment
with the child's flesh makes the spectators writhe and
after that small eternity the silence of the night
returns. The calm breathing of the apprentice and the wind playing among the bamboo announce the end of the ritual. The body of the small human child begins to show its new form. Magic flows through his blood and guts, searching for an appearance that shows his new power. |
Once the mask is fully attached, horns on the top and
teeth framing the jaws begin to emerge. A new Oni is
born. A demon whose duty is to protect the mountain and its inhabitants. To watch over the righteous souls and protect them from the unworthy, whom he will relentlessly pursue and punish without mercy. |
