Leon has decided that it is time to stop merely playing at divinity and begin embodying it. The first step in doing so is to honor one of the most ancient traditions of Kami. Naorai, the end of the period of fasting and moderation wherein the gods pay the believer back for their devotion. In doing so Leon enjoys a meal in a blessed location as the kami responsible for the people in his land at a sanctified location, during which time he accumulates the energy of faith shared in the meal into a bottle of sake that he keeps beside him throughout the meal. Then, at the end once the bottle has filled with the energy and the sake has been enriched with the spiritual power of both Kami and believer, Leon then takes a drink of sake and bites his tongue before he spits the mixture onto the object in question and in doing so blesses it granting it the power of the kami that aid him in his day to day life and cleansing it of impurities with his own life essence. In this communion as well, two items may be brought into union as god and believer are and in doing so elevate both to something beyond either.
