Deified Human of the Wind
Voice Lines
Temperament: Nagi
Nagi refers to a lull in the wind. The temperament befits the wind priestess Sanae, who can calm the wind. Sanae is endowed with Wood Phase, from her carefree nature that deviates from common sense, and Star Essence, from how she is not restrained by anything. The strong and kind Wood Phase resists Water Phase, because water nourishes wood, but it is weak to Metal Phase, because metal carves wood. The diverse and uncooperative Star Essence resists the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence, but it is weak to the charming and arrogant Sun Essence.
Ability: Capable of causing miracles
A miracle is a rare event that can only occur in the most incredible of circumstances. The bigger the miracle, the longer Sanae has to chant. A quick chant would only grant her a little miracle, whereas chanting for days might cause a miracle at the level of a natural disaster... Normally, Sanae only creates miracles as a way to show her ability, mostly when she is doing missionary work in the village. This ability originally required her to borrow power from Kanako and Suwako, but the wind priestess has become an object of faith herself―a living god―and it is unclear what god is making these miracles happen now.

Esoterica: Gray Thaumaturgy
Sanae Kochiya's Spell Card. This attack launches a barrage of star bullets at the target. Apparently, the name refers to a sacrificial art which would normally have already been lost by Sanae's generation. There are rumors that this Spell Card is actually a miraculous ritual that will eventually invoke a divine wind.

Sea Opening: The Day the Sea Parted
Sanae Kochiya's Spell Card. It recreates the crossing of a parted sea and is likely a reference to omiwatari, or the cracks that form across the frozen surface of Lake Suwa. While many believe omiwatari to be the work of fairies, Moriya Shrine claims that it is actually a miracle.

Value of a Miracle
Sanae Kochiya's Last Word (a Touhou LW original). Sanae wanted to create her own Last Word, but she was unsure how, even after Kanako and Suwako readily agreed to help. In the end, Sanae completed her Last Word as a cooperative attack that combines hearts as one and unleashes chains of miracles.
