History
An ancient shrine stands in Kamino village north of Kumagaya. This strategic agricultural region has long been vital to farming prosperity. The shrine has continuously watched over fields from spring planting through autumn harvest. Each season I observe how the farming community transforms, yet the shrine's steadfast protection gives the people confidence in their work.
