Moving elegantly over the snow, Utahime quietly practices the sacred Kagura dance. The shrine maiden's movements are graceful and fluid, her eyes shining with dedication as she perfects her dance to prepare for the performance later that night.

Feeling a presence nearby, she pauses her performance to scan her surroundings. Unbeknownst to her, the observer is none other than a figure of high status, a respected Clan Head.

"Who's there?" Utahime sternly asks while moving through the snow.
