Once upon a time there was a beautiful woman. So beautiful that any man who even caught a glance of her was besotted by her. Day after day the woman would receive gifts from various suitors begging her to become their wife. She refused everyone, however, for she knew none of the men loved the person she was just her appearance. One day a rather handsome man met the beautiful woman, asking for her hand. Like the others, she refused, but this suitor was persistent. For an entire month the suitor returned, asking for the woman's hand each day. He did not want her for love, however, but to place her on a pedestal to show off to any and everyone.
Each time the woman refused the gentleman grew angrier and angrier until on the final night he revealed his true form. The gentleman was Sosuke Aizen, a powerful yokai to the region. He put a curse on the lovely woman and turned her into a horrid monster for not accepting him and trapped her in a shrine, never able to leave past the gates. With a smirk the man disappeared as the woman tried to run after him. She turned back to her new home and fell to her knees upon realizing she was trapped forever now. She opened her eyes and gasped in horror at image in the puddle on the ground. The woman was a terrifying fox demon now, losing all appearances of ever having being human.
She released an angry howl into the night, piercing the silence and terrifying many for miles around. The beauty she had never asked for brought her this curse. No, men had done this to her in their lust. She vowed on that day to give up on love and to never allow another man into her life. Many have come trying to slay the yokai within but all have failed. By now all the locals have given up and instead allow the yokai to live there, undisturbed.
