Two wounded samurai seek refuge from a storm at an isolated temple where only a swordsman and a mysterious woman live. Only one of the samurai survives the night.

The swordsman that lives in the temple begins to explain his past, weaving a tale of his own immortality and his former life as the legendary Musashi Miyamoto.
