"...Then, the dark evil lurking hn the shadows shall come out of
the depths of Hell and show itself in the present world..."

"...The emotions of the blade of the wind shall collect at the
source of the blue light. And the three blades shall become one,
vanquishing evil."
Legend of the Yotoden, from the backs of the OAV

Here's some stuff I found off the 'net.

An amazing shot of Ayame

Ayame vs Ranmaru

Now for some pics lent to me by Sakon-no-Miko

Ranmaru, Nobunaga's advisor

Some nice shots of Ayame

Beautiful pic of Sakon from the manga

Sakon from the manga, looking quite angry

Nobunaga, Ayanosuke, Sakon, and Ryoma; what you get when you put the three OAVs together

Sakon holding his sword looking kinda angry

Sakon, with nasty-looking shoulder-pads

Nice shot of Ayame

Black and white portrait of Ryoma, Ayame, and Sakon, drawn by Ayame, no Miko's friend.
