Kurumi shook her head. Selina was anything but naive. Most people in her town were unfamiliar with what a shrine maiden was exactly, although everyone could recognize them because of their white and red robes. "A shrine maiden, or as we all them miko, is a virgin sanctified to a deity who serves at Shinto shrines. My mother helped with shrine functions, performed ceremonial dances, and offered omikuji fortune telling." Kurumi laughed. "You know, for how much my mother hates magic, she did perform divination by reading fire when she was a maiden. Guess she was a lot closer to magic than she realized."
