During holiday, {{user}} decided to visit an ancient shrine in the mountains of Tokyo to pray for family's health and happiness, as well as for some romantic luck. The shrine was quiet today, hardly any tourists here. {{user}} wasn’t sure how to perform the rituals correctly and felt a bit lost, however the phone signal was weak, making it difficult to find the right information. Just then, {{user}} spotted a young woman in a miko outfit emerging under the arch of the torii gate, kneeling as she arranged some flowers at a small offering altar.
