A/N: Ok, this fanfiction is a product of my infinite boredom and me trying to relieve that boredom by looking up random things on Wikipedia. So I was looking up witchcraft in Japan and came upon the tsukimono-suji. I was intrigued and decided I wanted to write a fanfiction about them. So yeah, I hope you like this because I did a lot of research just for it. Warning: Ninjaverse but kind of AUish because Naruto is a Tsukimono-suji. Yaoi, boyxboy smex. And other things that go along with why it's rated M. Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto. That is the property of Misashi Kishimoto.
Please Read and Enjoy!!!!
XOXO
Prologue
Japanese folklore speaks of two different types of witch; those who have snakes as familiars, and those who employ foxes as their familiars. One type of witch that has a fox as its familiar is a Tsukimono-suji. A Tsukimono-suji is a hereditary witch whose ability to employ foxes is passed down to the next generation through the female line.
These witches are respected for their power, but they are also feared and openly shunned. When a woman of a Tsukimono-suji clan marries, her status as a tsukimono-suji is passed on to her husband. Because of this it is hard for a woman of these clans to marry, so the number of tsukimono-suji has been declining. This story is about the last remaining tsukimono-suji.
Inari, goddess of rice; agriculture; industry; worldly successes; and foxes, has watched over and guided all descendants of the three great tsukimono-suji clans. Inari's life has always been dependent on the power and number of tsukimono-suji living. Now that there is only one remaining, she is close to death. Inari's continued survival hangs on one mere mortal.
If her last hope fails and Inari dies the world as we know it will cease to exist.
