Otaki Shrine

I, the white fox, tell of the shrine of Great Falls nestled among the sacred springs of Yatsugatake's southern slopes. Just as pure waters flow eternally from these underground sources, divine blessing flows from this hallowed place. Those who depend upon clear water hold this shrine in deep reverence, and it has long served as the spiritual center of its region. Amid Hokuto's pristine nature, pilgrims come to understand at once the sanctity of water and the preciousness of life itself.
