[The inner shrine with the statues of the two deities 'High Divine Spirit Command' and 'Protector of God Born Sun' is barricaded by the 'Lucky Fence', and ordinary people are not allowed to enter.]
[According to the discussions among the pilgrims, the progression of this year's 'Nesting Festival' is largely similar to those of previous years.]
[Before noon, the priestess will perform the Kagura Dance in the shrine hall, to win over the pleasure of the deities.]
[By noon, the 'priestess' will be carried by a sacred palanquin to the 'Worship Hall' for a grand offering ceremony.]
[Afterward, the palanquin will pass through the Coin Palace, heading straight to the shrine's deepest inner sanctum.]
[The priestess will then bathe and pray alone there with burning incense.]
[Only at midnight will the Master of God, accompanied by relevant shrine personnel, enter to conduct the most crucial step of the 'Nesting Festival'—the live sacrifice ceremony.]
