The story of Shadow Warrior

6 parts, from the opening to the ending. Read it before Shadow Warrior 2. This page tells the ending.

  1. Mizayaki's Compound

    You were Lo Wang, an assassin sent by industrialist Orochi Zilla to buy an ancient sword from Mizayaki. When he refused, you tried taking it by force and ended up imprisoned. Demons attacked the compound and killed Mizayaki. You escaped and allied with Hoji, the masked demon who had been helping your captor. Together, you pursued the sword through the invasion.

  2. The Nobitsura Kage

    You learned that the Nobitsura Kage consisted of three swords that could be joined together. Its blade could kill the immortal Ancients who ruled the demons. Even touching it was fatal to them. You also encountered Whisperers, creatures carrying memories the Ancients had removed from themselves. Killing these couriers let you witness the hidden history behind the invasion and Hoji's exile.

  3. Hoji's Memories

    You discovered that Hoji had loved his sister Ameonna, whose tears supplied the Shadow Realm's rain. Their happiness caused drought, and their ruler Enra had them separated. Hoji retaliated by arranging Ameonna's poisoning, leaving her asleep and the realm dry again. Reviving her required an Ancient's sacrifice. Enra had promised Zilla healing and demonic support in exchange for assembling the lethal sword.

  4. The Shadow Realm

    You turned against Zilla as the search for the remaining blade continued. Enra pulled Hoji back into the Shadow Realm, and you followed through a Whisperer. There you found your companion burdened by guilt. He had removed his memories of you to create another Whisperer. You persuaded him to join you again. Killing Enra offered a way to awaken Ameonna and undo Hoji's damage.

  5. Zilla's Last Blade

    You returned to Earth with Hoji and confronted Zilla, who possessed the last piece of the Nobitsura Kage. You cut off your former employer's sword arm and completed the weapon. Zilla escaped with the Kyokagami twins' help. With the assembled blade in your hands, you returned to the Shadow Realm, intending to kill Enra and use his blood to revive Ameonna.

  6. Rain AgainThe ending

    You were captured and disarmed before Enra tried to sacrifice Hoji through a Whisperer. Hoji seized the sword and returned it to you, fatally touching its blade. After fighting Xing's headless body, you cornered Enra, who accepted death as the remaining sacrifice. You killed him, and Ameonna awakened. Her tears over Hoji's body restored the rain. You had saved the Shadow Realm, but lost the companion who had fought beside you.
