Cherry Blossom Blooming - Izumo

A woman lost after mourning an unrequited love. Two lovers embrace death in the aftermath of a failed bid for power. Two warriors consider what it means to love in a lifetime that has known only war. Cherrry Blossom Blooming is a follow-up and an expansion to Paper Crane Memories, exploring more moments and tales of tangled love in Izumo, a fantasy setting inspired by the history, folklore, and culture of Old Japan. Seventeen more stories of women who love other women, set in a fantastical world of mysticism, spirits, samurai clans, and the heavy toll of war.
Love can be difficult and complex, and can be found in places one would not expect. And sometimes, even in the darkest times, it can shine bright.
