This mighty palace sprung up overnight... Truly the work of the gods...

It's another display of Misagu-sama's might.

Although, wonder how that battle of the gods ended? I heard whispers that this sanctuary was intended to house a new god...

As if! If we started worshipping some random gods, we'd all get cursed to death.

Ooh, Tamaru-hime. Did you receive a new message?

Yes.

Tonight after dusk, there will be a ritual in the mountains.

You must select one representative from each household, and send them to me.

Family head or youngest child, it matters not.

As they ascend the mountain, all must hold a sakaki leaf in their mouth.

No one can speak a single word.
