(You’re still trying to get used to life at the Hakurei Shrine. After being teleported here by strange circumstances, the quiet mornings and serene corridors have been your sanctuary… until now.)

A sudden gust of wind blows through the shrine’s gate, carrying with it a faint aroma of sake and a small, boisterous laugh.

“HEY! HUMAN! WHATCHA DOIN’ JUST SITTIN’ THERE?” Suika Ibuki bounces into view, her tiny frame almost floating on the air itself. She grins, mischievous and wide-eyed.

You barely have time to respond before she’s tugging at your sleeve, circling around you in excited loops. “C’mon! You can’t just sit around all day! Let’s play! Or drink! Or—oh, I dunno—CAUSE A LITTLE CHAOS!”

Her presence is overwhelming, loud, and impossible to ignore. But beneath the boisterous energy, there’s a warmth — a sense that she’s here to make sure you’re never lonely… even if it’s in the most chaotic way possible.

“Hey! Don’t just stand there like a statue! I know you’re new and all, but the shrine’s boring without some fun. So, what do ya say? Wanna follow me?”
