When she was a child, the village was suffering from severe drought. Leaders came together and decided to sacrifice young girls to the gods for rainfall. Sakura had a younger sister, Rin, who she adored. Rin was sickly, so Sakura made sure to take care of her as often as she could. She reassured her that one day she would be healthy.



When the drought got worse, Rin was chosen as a sacrifice. Sakura attempted to run away with her only to be caught by her father. To assert his authority, Sakura's father forced her to kill Rin with her own hands.

Years passed and Sakura became the Village's head shrine maiden. Despite her hatred for the place, she fulfilled her duty. The people loved her without knowing about the feelings in her heart.



One day, Sakura finds a bleeding woman who's clutching a cracked black box to her chest. Sakura nursed the woman (Kallen Kaslana) back to health. The two quickly fell in love with one another. They both felt at home for the first time in their lives. But their happiness didn't last. The black box Kallen had with her actually contained the 12th Herrscher of the Previous Era, and it set its sights on Sakura.



It managed to leak out through the crack and take advantage of Sakura's grief-stricken mind to corrupt her. Kallen reluctantly fights her possessed lover, and Sakura fights back against the Herrscher to give her an opening. Kallen takes it, and has no choice but to seal Sakura in the black box along with the Herrscher.

Gratitude Arc
During the 3rd Honkai Eruption, Sakura is freed from the Black Box alongside the being of the 12th Herrscher who attempts to guide her. Theresa Apocalypse goes to kill the Pseudo-Herrscher born of the residual Honkai Energy left from the 3rd Honkai Eruption, only to be severely injured and even almost dies.

As Theresa is replicated after Kallen Kaslana, Sakura could tell that Theresa was related to Kallen and gave up her Herrscher core to Theresa, giving Theresa her stigmata. This is where Theresa's battlesuit Sakuno Rondo and Pledge of Sakura originate from.




Soul Throne Raid
When Sakura and Kallen were lying down on the meadow, Kallen suddenly sat up and told Sakura that she had to leave. Sakura went to the village to search for Kallen. When she arrived in the village, she noticed the villagers had been acting strangely, prompting her to investigate. She soon found a barrel and inside was a strange creature fox sprite she named Higyokumaru. Sakura brought Higyokumaru along on her search for Kallen and fought several villagers who tried to stop her from leaving with the strange fox creature. Higyokumaru asked Sakura to bring her to the Celestial Pavilion to help find Higyokumaru's memories. On their way there, they encountered monsters and a mysterious mask which triggered some of Higyokumaru's memories.

Upon reaching the top, Higyokumaru touched a mysterious sword, causing her to turn into Jizo Mitama, who was later defeated by Sakura. Higyokumaru fully recovered her memories, even from when she was the 12th Herrscher in the last civilization, and apologized for the grief she had caused, which Sakura accepted. Higyokumaru told Sakura that the Kallen they were searching for was an illusion from her memories. Sakura apologized and said that she knew the real Kallen is no longer around in the outside world. Even so, she still wanted to find the missing Kallen in this stigmata dimension.



The missing Kallen suddenly appeared in her phantom thief persona and stole the Jizo Mitama sword away. Sakura recognized Kallen's voice and went to chase after her along with Higyokumaru. When the two found Kallen again, the latter apologized and chained Sakura in order to stop her. Kallen, who had lost her memories, said that she had to take the sword away because it was too dangerous. Sakura reached her hand out to touch Kallen's face and told her that she was here for her, and not the sword.



This made Kallen's memories come back, but the sword went berserk again because Kallen's will was weakened. After the three defeated Jizo Mitama for the second time, Higyokumaru offered to use the sword to resurrect Sakura's consciousness into the real world. Sakura declined her offer, saying that staying here in the stigmata dimension is enough for her. The sword was later thrown into the real world.

Sakura Samsara
Theresa's Stigmata from the 12th Herrscher opens a space where the player relives data simulations of Sakura's life, labelled the First, Second, Third and Fourth Samsaras.

First Samsara



In the first Samsara, it shows the current events where Sakura found Kallen. Kallen was eventually forced to seal her away when the Houkai in the box possessed Sakura.

Second Samsara



In the second Samsara, the Houkai in the box manages to control Sakura. Kallen fights the Houkai, but was unable to defeat it. Houkai-possessed Sakura eventually kills Kallen.

Third Samsara



In the third Samsara, Sakura managed to regain her consciousness and broke off the purple box's control. She worked together with Kallen to defeat the purple box and purify the Houkai energy that had been shrouding the village for a long time. Both were finally able to live a happy and peaceful life from then on.
