Episode 5: Divine Blessings

During a new moon, Sosuke sleeps extensively while Murasame grows quiet, and Shino encounters Mizuki Ayane, a white-haired, red-eyed girl belonging to the Snake Clan. Hamaji sends Shino with flower gifts to foster friendship, which instead angers Mizuki Ayane's guardian god, Hibiki. Sosuke intervenes by nearly cutting off Shino's arm as a peace offering before Ayane rescues them, leading all four to converse and Ayane to befriend Hamaji. Eventually, Hibiki permits Ayane to attend a town festival provided an Osaki fox accompanies her.
