Up in the opulent celestial capital of the Lofty Realm...
the spoiled harvest goddess Sakuna whiles away her life in luxury, resting on the laurels of her late parents. Below in the Lowly Realm, a vicious mountain bandit chases a group of desperate humans to the edge of a cliff. A bridge between the two realms appears, and it is there that Sakuna crosses paths with the “children of men.”
As the daughter of a warrior god and harvest goddess, Sakuna will rediscover her birthright in this untamed wilderness by weathering the elements, fighting monsters, and cultivating the soil.
