Sadako's Otosan Uchi

Chiken Temple is built on the site of the Battle of Stolen Graves. In the year 510, Iuchiban used a temple on this site as his base. The clans burned it to the rafters after the battle and sowed salt into its ashes. Since then, countless purification rituals have been performed here. Over one hundred and forty years ago, the Hantei decreed the location safe again, and ordered a new temple built on the same site (perhaps as a binding against future evils that might arise on the site). The new temple belongs to Osano-Wo, but hardly anyone remembers that. Most people believe that the place is haunted. Several guards have claimed to hear the sounds of a smith working at a forge, maniacal laughter, and a voice that whispers “Yajinden” in the middle of the night. No one questions the Hantei’s decision, of course, but hardly anyone dares to visit.
