Nora Amazina- The daughter of Memoria and Lighton, and self-proclaimed guardian of Amazina, though with all her help with before incidents nobody's complaining.. Even though she dresses odd compare to her seedrian kin, she is a tombody and very cocky. Nora likes defeating people in combat, so she likes the job she's been given.
Soro Soaranna- Nora's best friend, and partner. He's a bit of a coward compared to Nora, but he'll never leave her behind. Soro always gets dragged into things like this, even though he really dislikes it! But he likes being around Nora, and away from his father.
Neko Miko- The Spirit Shrine owner and adoptive mother of the satori demon, Kori. She dresses in a odd appeal, and loves flowers. Her name is rather confusing, but none really minds it. She is the most powerful Miko in all the Seasonal Shrines, she acts a bit insane or just plain happy. But she has a dark side which even a Yama is afraid off! She always carries a giant flower.
Noel Seasonia- Nora's cousin, daughter of sister of Memoria. Noel loves ballet, and is nothing like her cousin, being part spirit none hesitated in making her the Miko of the Winter Shrine.

Akihiko Enzeru- A celestial with jade wings. He ran away from abuse of his resurecting powers, but decided to help out the Seasonal Shrines by becoming the Monk of the Spring Shrine. Even though, his god appears in a spirit form, Harugami, his true form is a violet sakura tree that blooms year-round.

His clothes are modern looking compared to everybody elese's. He likes play a flute, and playing with his pet Nekomatta, Yepa. Kori is loved by animals, because he can understand them, so it is not strange for him to be seen talking to a animal. Kori is a bit of a prankster though, and likes to annoy the Miko.

==Story==
===Part 1===
YAWN!
Nora yawns as she waits around the summer shrine, even though it's always summer there, it is never too hot, but rather a beautiful shrine. Soro pokes around the shrine, looking for something.
"Yo! Soro, what are you looking for?" Nora asked,
"Well, Harugami has a symbolized object, I'm looking to see if Natsugami has one, too. I want to know what he or she looks like..." replied Soro,
"Heh, sorry already did that... Nothin' so far, but you can check the Zen Garden in the back, it's a bit... undusted due to the fact there wasn't a miko here before..." said Nora, and she goes back in a laying down pose.
Soro goes outside, Nora looks at the japanese styled house, and then started to become a bit nosy and got up and looked around. Nora was too looking for information about Natsugami, but, nothing... All of a sudden, she felt a slight wind and sakura petals hit her, she picked one off her head and saw it was purple.
"Looking for the evidance of Natsugami's existance?" said Harugami, who was in the shrine.
Nora turned around to look at the tall anthro shaped god, he wore a green outfit, and had plants sprouting from different parts of his body, while his arms had large leaves coming from them that looked like hands, and his skin was rather tinted green. Nora's first action was to bow, but then walked up to the Spring God.
"Yes sir, but, why are you here?" asked Nora, as polietly as she could.
"I was on a stroll, I was asleep for thousands of years, and thanks to Akihiko's gathering, I am once again revived." explained Harugami
Nora put her hands behind her back and gave a look saying That's not all of it...
"Hm hm hm..." Harugami laughed, "I'm not saying everything in my explaination am I? Well, that is true, I sense a powerful youkai heading towards this shrine right now, it is unclear to me if he is friendly or not..."
Harugami disappeared in the sakura petals, as if he was a spirit that came to say hello and goodbye. Nora got out her Angelic Staff and ran outside into the forest, Soro came in wondering where she went.
Nora leaped from tree to tree, she made a slight whistling noise of pleasure from the scent of greens filling the air. Even a seedrian can become a little unused to a forest when living in the cities it's whole life. Nora then grabbed a branch and swung herself onto the ground, she went into her favourite ninja-like pose with her staff to the side of her pointing where she is looking. But, nothing appeared so far... But Nora knew something was coming in. All of a sudden a humanoid figure started running past the bushes towards the Spirit Shrine. Nora leaped high, being a very light creature. She stopped the figure in his tracks while putting her staff in a slanted angle saying, No passage through here.
"Who or what are you, and define your purpose here!" said Nora, she sounded like she has recited it.
"I am Arthur of the River Village, I am a Nue. I have come to seek aid..." said the figure in the order that Nora asked in
At closer examination, the being had white hair, and wore a jacket with a snake symbol on it. She wore modern jeans and traveler boots. His eyes were a demonic, yet kind violet. He had blue streaks on his face coming down from his eyes. Nora got stunned for a moment, she knew that the Nue were a dangerous youkai species, and were one of the types of youkai that were banished to the Southern Border. Yet, this one like to wear a human disguse and didn't have the scent of a demon, but had a scent of being around other people for a long while.
"A..... Nue? But... weren't they..." Nora stammered
"I know, most of my kind were taken captured and banished to the South. However, I was discovered by a young couple and was spared. I was raised by the anthros and humanoids here, and soon I lost my old form and now what you see is... But I disgress, I need to see the Miko of Spirits! Now, please, allow me passage..." Arthur commanded more then asked, but Nora knew he was telling the truth and allowed him passage...
"Hmm... He's alot like--" started Nora until someone put his face infront of her's startling her to the ground
"Were you going to say my name?" said Kori, the satori who was adopted by Neko Miko
"Hi Kori... Must you hang upside down like that from the branches?" Nora groaned
Kori swung down, his hat's wings slowely swayed as he turned to face her.
"Yeah... I was, since the satori are hated by their mind-reading..." said Nora, dusting herself off, but Kori was a bit oblivious to her and started playing his flute.﻿
