Laurant-Grand Shrine
One, bow when you cross the Torii- um, I guess you did that.
Two, tread not upon the middle of the Sando- oh, you didn’t do that either. Good.
Three, halt! Do not just- oh, I guess you aren’t the type of woman to ignore the Temizu-ya. I knew that!
Yes, take the hishaku in your right hand and scoop some water into it, and pour it over your left hand.
Then you take the hishaku in your left hand and repeat the cleansing.
With the hishaku in your right hand once more, pour some water into your left hand and use it to rinse your mouth.
Yes, turn the hishaku upright and let the remaining water rinse it down.
Perfect!
Hm?
Looks like you Lost your handkerchief. Geez…what a clumsy girl ★
Four, oops, you didn’t drop your Omamori...or accidentally step on it.
Five, looks like you’re carefully selecting your Osaisen, making sure to avoid the smaller coins.
How admirable, especially considering how much of a burden coin exchange is these days.
Excellent!
Six, and of course, you’re ringing the bell with much care…
Seven, if this were any ordinary shrine, two-bows-two-claps is an acceptable choice. What a shame!
Bestow upon me cleansing, bestow upon me purification, grant me thine divine protection and blessing.
Eight, it’s fine to say your prayers out loud. But this time’s an exception.
Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life.
Hey, woman.
Huh!? God!? Or...Noh music member!
Did you just say something that breaks the fourth wall? ...oh well.
You only need to think when you communicate with me.
Huh!? What’s going on!? This is kind of exciting!
OK! Well, this is going to be a loooong story, so let’s use the vertical bearer of time as our tutorial!

And there you have it! O, newly appointed shrine maiden, try saying your prayers with eight-bows-eight-claps!
If what you say is true..my father will come back to life, right?
Of course! YES WE CAN!
What a character!
But I’ll give it my all.
At last, the Okami transcend time for their second advent upon this ⛩️orizon!
W-what is this flashy display? The shrine’s like a gaming arcade! Oh, the Temizu-ya got all fancy. The Ema display looks really cute. The shrine office…didn’t really change? But the main shrine looks divine!? This isn’t the Hiashi Shirogane shrine anymore! Ah, ah, aaahhhhhh!!!
Wait, I was born and raised in-
Laurant Grand Shrine
Around fifteenth visiting path. The prologue of a long journey has begun.
The meaning of having died. The meaning of having been born.
The Eight-Million <messages>.
Fantasy musical picture scroll.
The 7.5th or perhaps the 8.5th ⛩️orizon.
Pour your wishes into the Ema!
Ah, can <the variety of a story leading towards ...>[roman] be found there?
O, the great Laurant Okami
Overflowing is thine divinity
We lay ourselves bare before thine presence
With reverent awe
Unto our undeserving selves
We accept thine divine blessing
Bearing utmost gratitude
And respect in our hearts
Oh? You do know what I’m saying?
You really did grow up in a shrine!?
I mean, that’s just how it goes in Norito.
Of course, you have a part to play in the next verse!
We implore thee to take pity on this woman
Iwanaga Himeko
“My name is Iwanaga Himeko…”
A humble servant in front of thine divine presence
We beseech thee with reverent awe
To return her father’s spirit
“Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life. Please bring my father back to life.”
Aaand that’s the end of that!
I went over this in our tutorial with the aid of the vertical string, but let me just go over it again.
Basically, lure in people with profitable <bait that speaks to their wishesdesires>[tempting bait]
As long as you spread word of this cashable god
Even unbefitting wishes can come true <somewhat luck dependent, but probably on the luckier side>[50-50 lucky]
Somewhere, someone is shouting
Oh gods, lend thine ear to these feelings!
Pour our wishes into the Ema!
O, the myriad gods of fantasy
Overflowing with divinity
The Laurant Gods
With a stroke of their interpretation, ⛩️orizons are painted over
And guided to alternative conclusions
Your wishes into the Ema should be written on the back
But hang them with the front visible
You can write either
v
e
r
t
i
c
a
l
l
y
Or horizontally
<Your address> and <your name> are personal information
The modern era cares too much about protecting
But as long as you tape over them with this sticker, it’s no problem!
Do not ignore the temizu-ya during your visitation!

This road is too narrow for two…
The one knowing of their fate to disappear…
In their last moments…kicks you in the back…
A distant..faraway..memory…
The light I’ve always felt in this darkness…
Your <pulse>...and my mother’s <voice>...
In the end…I cannot even put a name to it…
Memories of someone…who disappeared…?
And thus-
The
omnipotent
gods
descend
from
heaven
on
high
|
Boundless in wisdom
The Laurant Gods
At their whims, fate is rewritten
And steered towards their desired outcome
As such...tracing the melody of words…
They roam faraway lands
Laurant Zuijin
With the toll of divine revelations, they dominate providence
Towards endings of salvation
Towards the beginning of Cycles
The meaning of having died. The meaning of having been born.
