Dai-Nippon Tengu-tou Ekotoba
大日本天狗党絵詞
Tengu are depicted as proud and conceited beings, so much so that the Japanese phrase "to become a Tengu" means to act arrogantly. According to legend, they are said to kidnap children. In this story, the broken and disgraced remnants of the Tengu population unite from across the country with the goal of restoring their honor and taking control of Japan, which they believe is their rightful place. The narrative explores the impact of the "Tengu Party" on the human population of Japan and delves into the nature and defining traits of what makes a Tengu.
