In the ancient land of Yanato, two distinct realms have long existed side by side: the Lofty Realm, home to the gods, and the Lowly Realm, where humans dwell. Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin follows Sakuna-hime, a privileged young goddess born of a war god father and a harvest goddess mother. Despite her divine heritage, Sakuna-hime has spent her days in idle comfort, far removed from the responsibilities her lineage demands. Everything changes when she finds herself exiled to Hinoe Island, a remote and treacherous land overrun by demons. Stranded in this harsh wilderness with little more than her wits and divine power, Sakuna-hime must learn to battle fearsome creatures while also cultivating rice to survive. For a goddess who has never known hardship, this demon-infested island becomes the unlikely setting for an extraordinary new chapter in her life.
