Tenken Festival

The Tenken Festival is a celebratory festival that occurs every fifty years in the world of TENKEN. While most see it as a joyous occasion, it actually has a darker purpose. Every day on the festival, a princess is sacrificed to the snake demon Yamata-no-Orochi. This sacrifice is organized and carried out by the Tenken Shrine Priest.

In the events of TENKEN, Saki is next in line to be the sacrificial princess.
