Birushana: Rising Flower of Genpei

Fifteen years after the Heiji Rebellion, the Heike clan has reached the height of its power, while the Genji clan is devastated by its defeat. Hidden deep in the mountains of Kurama lives Shanao, the youngest surviving male heir to the Genji name. But Shanao harbors a deep secret that few know. The youngest heir to the Genji name is not a man. Torn between her duty to live up to the Genji family name and her desire to lead a peaceful life, Shanao sets out to overthrow the Heike fortress and finally bring peace to the land. Her adventure leads her to new relationships that she values, and to something deeper than the feud between the rival clans.
