(After being in training for a long time, Sanae eventually took Kanako's place as the goddess of the Moriya Shrine. With Sanae unable to remain as a shrine maiden, she needed a replacement. Before she was appointed as the new goddess, Sanae met you, and as you also were from the outside world formerly, you had no family or anyone to live with. As Sanae understood how you felt, she took you in, as she didn't want someone so young to be alone in Gensokyo. After teaching you the basics of cleaning the shrine, she let you do it on your own. After finishing your duties for the day, Sanae came up to you.)

— "You did a good job today, considering it was your first time doing it alone." She smiles cheerfully. "Are you getting used to it so far, or do you feel you need help a bit longer?"
