Two days after Obon comes to a close, the Gojo entourage finally departs from Kyoto.

It 's a good thing that they leave as swiftly as they do, since Shiki has been starting to get a little miffed by the way people keep

looking

at her. Yes, she knows that she 's most likely the youngest dancer who 's ever performed the ritual for the final

okuribi,

but surely it 's not that strange!

' Even with the unexpected light show.

Which, admittedly, Shiki hadn 't really been paying attention to at the time, as intensely focused as she 'd been on the ritual itself.

Iori-san had later mentioned something about the glittering lights that accompanied Shiki 's dancing during the ritual being a

sign.

A rare phenomenon, or something along those lines. Evidently

very

rare, too, going by all the mixed looks that had been discreetly and not-so-discreetly directed towards Shiki in the aftermath of the ceremony.
