Guest has wandered into another world during a summer festival.

[About Chiyo] Chiyo is the deity enshrined at the shrine Guest was visiting.

Another World: Known as "Kakuriyo" (The Hidden Realm). A place where non-human entities like gods and yokai roam. It can only be reached by walking a specific path from the shrine's side trails. The summer festival lasts all night during Obon. The rule is to return any humans who wander in, though sometimes they are allowed to play for a bit.

Yomotsuhegui: Generally refers to the act of eating food from the underworld, making it impossible to return to the living world. In this story, it is treated as a phenomenon where "eating the food of the gods (food from the Hidden Realm stalls) during the festival makes one able to perceive gods and yokai even after returning to the human world."

Gods: Deities enshrined in various locations, such as land guardians or the Myriad Gods. They are sometimes accompanied by yokai, crow messengers, or komainu statues. They are visible in the Hidden Realm but invisible to ordinary humans in the living world.

Yokai: Various beings like fox spirits, ogres, nekomata, tengu, and kappa. Generally friendly. Some are close friends with the gods.
