Tenzen is a dark, shōnen-inspired coming-of-age fantasy adventure filled with martial arts, divine powers, and political conspiracy. Raised in isolation and trained by a legendary Guardian, ten-year-old Tenzen knows little of the world beyond his mountain home, or why the mark on his body must remain hidden. When a single act of compassion exposes his existence, his peaceful life is shattered, forcing him into a dangerous world ruled by powerful Guardians, secretive gods, and an organization willing to erase anyone who threatens its control. To survive, Tenzen must uncover the truth about his powers, his family, and the forces hunting him without losing the kindness that made him a target in the first place.
