Among the finest flowers cultivated in the gardens of Myoo, the Kurohana holds a place unlike any other, prized for its rare beauty and the deep meaning it has come to represent. This magical flower flourishes in carefully tended gardens, the Imperial greenhouses, and regions blessed with a mild, humid climate, where nature remains in perfect balance.
Its five velvety petals are a rich shade of black, laced with delicate amber highlights that appear only beneath the sun's light. At its center, a golden stamen emits a soft glow at twilight, making the Kurohana one of the Empire's most admired flowers.
Beyond its striking beauty, the Kurohana is celebrated for its distinctive fragrance—sweet, lingering, and reminiscent of amber honey. Even after being dried, its petals retain their scent for years and are often used to perfume the halls of the Imperial Palace.
Ancient legends tell that Queen Himari personally planted several Kurohana in her garden to preserve the memory of a sacred promise of love. Since then, the flower has become a timeless symbol of inner harmony, balance, and love destined to endure.
It is said that the Kurohana blooms only where peace and serenity prevail. For that reason, many see it as more than a rare flower. It is regarded as a living symbol of the profound harmony between nature and magic.
