Cosmology of Kyoto
Step into the streets of Heian-era Kyoto, a city where the sacred and the profane intertwine. As a wandering traveler, you encounter nobles, monks, warriors, beggars, and spirits that slip between this world and the next. The choices you make will shape your karma—guiding you toward rebirth in higher realms, entangling you in endless suffering, or perhaps granting you a fleeting glimpse of enlightenment. In this living tapestry of history, myth, and Buddhist cosmology, you may wander temples, face hungry ghosts, confront legendary yokai, or witness the intrigues of the imperial court. Will you seek wisdom, indulge in desire, or test your fate against the unseen forces that govern existence?
