What was it really like to be a woman in Edo-period Japan?
Not a warrior. Not a noble. Just… a woman. A daughter trained to be silent. A wife traded like rice. A mother whose worth depended on bearing sons. This slow, immersive historical journey puts you in her sandals — from childhood obedience drills to the quiet vanishing of old age. There are no great battles here, only the soft sounds of folding cloth and footsteps that never leave.
If you enjoy darkly honest explorations of forgotten lives, this one's for you. Calm, immersive, and quietly devastating.
