The Tono Monogatari card game, *Beware the Flower Thief: Tono Seishinroku*, will be released nationwide in early November 2026.

Non served as the model for the game’s protagonist, the princess “Nene / Seishin-ni.”

Seishin-ni was a real-life female feudal lord who, in 1627, was forced to leave her hometown of Nejo (Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture) and relocate to Tono (Tono City, Iwate Prefecture), where she rebuilt the devastated land. As an extremely rare female daimyo in history, she remains a figure whose story is still passed down to this day.

N, who has ties to Iwate—the setting of this work—served as the model for Seishin-ni, and the card set features four newly drawn illustrations based on Non.

This work is a fantasy story based on real history.

Set in Tono City, Iwate Prefecture, the cards feature episodes from *Tono Monogatari*, actual events that took place in Tono, local landscapes, famous specialties, and yokai and divine beasts.
