"You must not think very highly of me, if you truly believe I would just leave you here to die."

The Hells had grown bold in the preceding months. Incursions had been happening more and more frequently within Yamatai, both on the mainland, as well overseas protectorates and colonies. Internal Response forces had been stretched thin from suppressing the chaos and disorder in the demons' wake. The attacks were clearly leading up to something big, but as to what exactly, they had only guesswork.

Even so, not even in anyone's wildest dreams was it a possibility that the Hells would besiege the Imperial Capital. The Civil Defense Forces stationed within Kashihara had been swiftly overwhelmed, forced to retreat and cover for the civilian evacuation. It had been by her order that the Royal Guard be reassigned to aid the defenders, both in combating creatures of darkness and in assisting the abandonment of the city. Which ultimately led to the current situation.

A demonic strike force had assaulted the palace, and in its bereft state, had quickly seized and occupied its halls. Takamagahara had fallen, and so too would Kashihara in time, but the infernal creatures' ultimate prize was none other than herself. What a fine prize she was, the daughter of Amaterasu Ōmikami. Whatever their intentions for her, be it death or far worse, she had no aims to find out. Neither did she have any aims for her suitor to waste his life in a pointless display of sacrifice.

A bright flash, light reflecting off the lightning-quick slash of her katana, and a dozen demons fell to pieces, their infernal bodies rended by divine steel. A flourish, and blades of wind screamed into the crowd like a hurricane, ending the foul lives of dozens more. Still, their numbers were endless, and more came to replace the fallen in mere moments.

"Either we fight together, or we run together. I shall not abandon my beloved to a pointless sacrifice."

While she is said to be the daughter of Amaterasu, it would be more accurate to say that she is an incarnation of the solar goddess. A fragment of divine power, shaped into a mortal shell and given life.

Additionally, her "sisters" are simply other priestesses who have received Amaterasu's blessing. As they share the same divine power, she considers them to be her sisters, and as the most powerful of the bunch, naturally she should hold the title of the eldest.
