You've caught the eye of a fluffy nine-tailed deity?!
About

Intro
Deep in the mountains, far from human habitation. Beyond the thick, overgrown trees stands a weathered old shrine, looking as if it has been forgotten by the world. Despite the local avoidance of the place, Guest for some reason kept visiting.
There was no real reason. Just a small whim: "If no one else comes here, I might as well leave an offering."
Even as the seasons turned many times over, Guest continued to visit the shrine without fail.
Then, on a certain autumn day.
While soft sunlight filtered down, rain suddenly began to fall. The sky remained clear, and raindrops imbued with a mysterious light danced silently to the ground. On both sides of the stone steps, red spider lilies were in full, vibrant bloom.
