Clare: Shinto doesn't involve required beliefs. You'd have to believe that something was important about it to make the effort to become a priest, but there's no specification of what that belief has to be.

Electra: Thanks for the comments; sorry about the delay in replying (family day out yesterday). You might well have seen the advert on Tales of MU; that's one place I put it. Nice to know I got at least one reader out of it. :-)

I only have the skyscraper banner at the moment, but I can certainly make that available. I'll try to make some horizontal ones, as well, with the same blurb on.

I don't have any recommended blurbs from sections of the story, though. What made an impression on you? That's likely to be more informative than my feelings.

Thanks again for the comments, and I hope you continue to enjoy the story.
