Jarní vánek přináší vzpomínky na prohrané bitvy. Letní pole hoří v plamenech zrady. Chladné podzimní noci rozeznívá křik démonů. Zimní sníh se barví do ruda krví. Roční doby se střídají v nekonečném koloběhu zrození, života a smrti - a zrcadlí tak válečnickou pouť Miyamota Usagiho, samuraje bez pána, který putuje krajinou středověkého Japonska, bojuje proti bezpráví a zdokonaluje své duchovní a válečnické schopnosti. Usagiho talent a povaha podstoupí několik těžkých zkoušek v sérii dobrodružství tak rozdílných, jako jsou roční období. Keramický tomel ukrývá klíč k plánům zlého lorda. Šermířské souboje se stávají jediným smyslem života ronina hledajícího pomstu. Tajemný Pán sov vládne schopností vidět smrt v očích lidí. Umírajícího obchodníka zachrání láska jeho dcery. Tyto příběhy a mnohé další označují různá období Usagiho cesty - označují je odvahou, loajalitou a osvícením.
