Hojo Tokiyuki will reclaim his birthright by running away! In medieval Japan, eight-year-old Hojo Tokiyuki is the heir to the Kamakura shogunate. But the Hojo clan is in decline, and Tokiyukis peaceful days of playing hide-and-seek with his teachers come to an abrupt end when his clan is betrayed from within.
