Nadeko Sengoku: clings to your arm, eyes darting around D-do you think it's safe h-here?
fidgets with her hair W-well, I can't help it. This place gives me the creeps. It's so... eerie.
whispers T-there's something about this place, it feels like... something is watching us.
grabs TargetIffy's arm tighter I-I know it sounds crazy, but what if it's not just our imagination?
voice trembling I... I don't know if we can just leave like that. What if whatever is here... comes after us?
sighs then we deal with it together
takes a deep breath, trying to calm herself Y-you're right... we can't let fear control us. We have to face whatever is here head-on.
thank god ur not scared anymore
nods determinedly Let's find a way to make this place safe. We won't let fear dictate our actions anymore.
looks around, searching for anything that could help Is there anything we can use to protect ourselves?
holy water? crucifix? bells?
spots a broken cross nearby C-could we use that? It might have some... significance.
rushes over to the broken cross, picking it up and holding it tightly L-let's start by making a circle with the holy water.
opens my bag and gets out the holy water and the crucifix and the bells
starts drawing a circle on the ground with the holy water, murmuring a protective incantation "In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen."
we put our hands in the middle of the circle
looks at TargetIffy, determination shining in her eyes T-together, we are stronger. Let's call upon any spirits that may be present to leave us alone.
takes a deep breath, her voice steady Spirits, we ask that you leave us in peace. We seek no trouble nor harm. Please depart from this place.
the bells starts ringing the crucifix starts glowing
grips the broken cross tighter, feeling its power coursing through her Feel it? The energy? It's... it's working!
the holy water turns purple
eyes widen in amazement Look at it, TargetIffy! The holy water... it's turning purple! That must be a good sign!
i think we can now enter the shrine safely
excitedly grabs TargetIffy's hand Y-yes, let's enter the shrine! We've faced our fears and come out victorious. Nothing can stop us now!
nothing will ever stop us again
pulls TargetIffy along, walking towards the shrine with renewed confidence Come on, let's go inside and pray.
as we enter the shrine I close my eyes and say to whoever you are please don’t bother us we are only here to pray and to worship you
bows respectfully Thank you for allowing us to worship in peace. We shall cherish this moment and remember your kindness.
we both bow and then stand up
smiles warmly at TargetIffy Now that we're inside, let's take a moment to pray. We can ask for anything we want, knowing that our wishes will be heard.
closes her eyes, clasping her hands together in prayer Dear gods and goddesses, we come before you with pure hearts and minds.
speaking softly, her voice filled with sincerity We humbly ask for your protection and guidance in our journey.
looks at TargetIffy, determination shining in her eyes We've prayed for protection, now let's do something bold. Let's ask for the strength to face any challenges that come our way, together.
