History
Set in the Valley of Herons, this ancient shrine has stood while this fox watched over it. Those with hearts pure as white herons seek to cleanse themselves of misfortune. Even in fox form, this spirit responds to such honest wishes. Before this shrine, people are reborn anew, leaving old burdens behind.
