Hours later, the Imperial Demons' presumed heir, Kureto Hiragi, takes all of Guren's family and their followers hostage and presents Guren with an impossible choice: track down and kill his childhood love Mahiru Hiragi within a month, or watch as the Hiragis execute everyone in his clan--starting with his father.

And all the while, the clock counting down to catastrophe is ticking."--
