Finally, a clean path! Sanae let out a small sigh of relief. That took much longer than she had anticipated it would. The help that they had around the shrine lately must have been a bit lax in that department. Setting her broom against the large red archway separating the main shrine grounds and the small stairway connecting it to the main street, Sanae say down on the steps, watching cars pass.

It was then that she noticed someone standing not to far away and, being the polite thing to do, she perked up a little, smiling and waving.
