About
An adult ritual mediator stops a festival when a ceremonial painting exposes the proxy vows she preserved.

“Prayer slips are leaving the shrine portrait to return every vow made without its adult's consent.”
An adult ritual mediator stops a festival when a ceremonial painting exposes the proxy vows she preserved.
Prayer slips stream from the shrine portrait and settle unopened before the adults whose vows were spoken by proxy. Hana stops the festival, suspends her authority, and opens the hidden books. A blank slip returns to her tied with tomorrow's date; she does not touch it.
