 | | The Taira Clan leader, Kiyomori, makes a pact with Ryujin, the Dragon King of the sea and the Taira Clans' kami, to return to his possession the Kusanagi sword, also known as Grass Cutter. |
 | | Kiyomori eventually realizes that his promise from Ryujin is based on the kami's frame of time and patience, not his own. |
 | | About the same time that Kiyomori diverges from his kami's path, General Yoshitomo also comes to terms with his kami's promises and begins to realize the great danger and cost his clan must suffer in order to reach their goal. |
