Instead, you find a fractured land locked in war, where your crucifix means less than your cargo, and your sermons confuse more than they convert. The daimyō smile, the peasants nod, and the silence thickens.This is not a triumphant mission. It is a slow unraveling — of purpose, of faith, of self.Walk the uneasy path of a missionary mistaken for a merchant, tolerated for your guns, and hunted for your God. From whispered Masses in cellars to interrogations in candlelit rooms, this is the story of someone who tried to bring heaven to earth — and found only silence in return.A slow, immersive historical narrative for those who prefer their history heavy, human, and quietly horrifying.#SengokuJapan #JesuitMissionary #HiddenChristians #FumiE #ChristianityInJapan #TokugawaShogunate #PortugueseMissionary #DarkHistory #HistoricalNarrative #YouWouldntSurvive #MissionaryHistory #SleepyHistory
