As his old friend Jubei returns to Edo with the task at hand complete, so too does Hanzo as he makes his way to his native Iga. Once home, Hanzo enjoys a night with his family. As he listens intently to his eldest son's report on his trip west, he sees a finger appear over his shoulder. It is his wife, Kaede's. She lifts her finger to show him something... a single cherry blossom petal. "Spring is upon us once more, my love." She offers a kind smile as she looks into his eyes. Severeal months later... The carnage and upheaval left in the evil's wake all but dissipated. However, the scars on the land still remain, as does the pain of what transpired. Hanzo, the loyal shadow retainer to the Bakufu that he is, cannot sit idly by. Once again, he sends his agents across the land to aid the Bakufu in their pursuit of peace and prosperity.''
