Centaurs, Volume 2 (Centaurs #7-11)

Matsukaze and Kohibari’s adventures continue as they find themselves among young centaurs who were orphaned by the war, including Matsukaze’s own son, Gonta. Taking on leadership roles, the two centaur warriors try to live a peaceful life in this new community. But it doesn’t take long before outsiders decide to invade, leading to an ultimate sacrifice and the destruction of the village.

Years later, the sons of Matsukaze and Kohibari, Gonta and Tanikaze, take responsibility for their people and try to guide them in this tumultuous world. But rumors of a village where centaurs and humans co-exist peacefully draw them in and turn their worldviews upside-down.

A wild and proud samurai jinba from the mountains named Matsukaze, known as the redheaded rock tiger, is caught while protecting his son. He is traded to a feudal lord, and taken to his land. There he meets another centaur, named Kohibari, whose village was burned down as a child. He is a tame centaur, who had his arms amputated when he was captured, and has given up hope of escaping his human captors. If they can get over their differences and work together, they just might be able to return to the wilds as free centaurs.
