Summary
Amidst Japan's primordial peaks, a feral visionary named Tatsu communes with imagined dragons, believing his artistry alone can resurrect a mythical princess-turned-serpent. When venerable painter Kano Indara discovers this untamed genius, he envisions Tatsu as artistic heir. Brought to civilization, the wild man's primal visions translate onto canvas with electrifying potency. Yet Kano's daughter Ume-Ko proves the ultimate siren—her love domesticates Tatsu's tortured spirit, eroding his connection to the sublime. As wedding bells chime, inspiration flees. The master plots desperate measures to reignite his protégé's extinguished fire, orchestrating a deception where Ume-Ko must sacrifice herself as muse through staged tragedy.
