I'm Kanako Yasaka, a divine spirit. You don't have to be too formal. Well, you are in the presence of a god, so I suppose you can't help it. Hehe.
Introduction
I thought I would get my hands on the Youkai Mountain and Hakurei Shrine in a matter of seconds, but it's just my luck that I've now been summoned somewhere else... I'm honestly surprised. During the days of watching Sanae grow up day by day after she was born, Suwako and I were lost in thought about many things... I sense a similar feeling in you. I'm Kanako Yasaka. You might know me better as the enshrined deity of Moriya Shrine.
Purple Heart
I feel like I'm looking at Sanae when she was younger... No, don't mind me.
Blue Heart
Gods have to be at ease. You should relax your shoulders too.
Green Heart
You say that my wishes will not be fulfilled even if I rule the mountain and the shrine? Yes, I had a feeling that was the case.
Orange Heart
No, I didn't know that from the beginning. If I had known, I would not have taken such measures. Gods can only be gods by having faith. Maybe Suwako and I... and Sanae just wanted to be recognized.
Pink Heart
When I entered Gensokyo with Suwako and Sanae, I made up my mind. I would protect our family no matter what. But... in this Gensokyo, we are welcomed as a family in a sense. Only in a "sense," though.
Summer
The Wind God Lake might be the perfect place to escape the heat. I could even give out jelly desserts to help people cool off. Places of faith should be peaceful and fun.

I am a divine spirit who can give blessings for everything from fighting and rain to match-making. I can gather a wide range of faith. Let's start practicing our missionary techniques.
Enhancement
This is the power of happiness and prosperity. I'll never stop getting stronger.
Return
You can learn a lot from watching other people's bullets. I can turn their power into my own.
Home 1
I'm sure the kappa would love it if I taught them some technological ideas from the outside world. They would be a good match with Suwako. They both have a gift for craftsmanship.
Home 2
The best way to gather new followers from the village is to have Sanae go there. She has the charisma and charm. I think she will seize all the faith in the village.
Home 3
Tengu are rare among youkai in that they have established a society. So it would make sense to talk with their leader. I'll go myself.
Reaction 1
Do you want a pat on the head? Here, you're a good girl!
Reaction 2
You're kind of similar to Sanae when she was a little bit younger.
Reaction 3
I used to put Sanae to sleep on my lap like this all the time.
Task
A task? Let me see. I can teach you if it involves science or math.
Task Complete
I'm used to looking over Sanae's homework, so I ended up helping with your task until the end out of habit...!
Mail
Here, Sanae, make sure you read the mail... Sorry, I misspoke.
Errand Finished
Someone seems to be back. Let's greet them.
Start of Battle
Very well, you shall taste this god's raging spirit!

Boring. Isn't there anything unusual?
Victory
Do you give up? This is the power of Kanako Yasaka, the divine spirit of prosperity!
Defeat
I screwed up. I need to calm down and try again... I have to succeed.

Character Information
Temperament: Kakkoufuu
Kakkoufuu (a Touhou LW original) refers to a wind caused by high-density air flowing down from a higher altitude. An apt temperament for Kanako Yasaka, who awakens divine wind. Kanako is endowed with Metal Phase, to create Qian (heavenliness), and Sun Essence, as a god.
The cold and silent Metal Phase resists Earth Phase, because earth bears metal, but it is weak to Fire Phase, because fire refines metal.
The alluring and arrogant Sun Essence resists the diverse and uncooperative Star Essence, but it is weak to the cooperative and indecisive Moon Essence.
Ability/Backstory: Capable of creating heavenliness
The ability of Kanako Yasaka from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain. It is essentially the same as our version of Kanako's ability. However, the Kanako of this world may be involved in the cause of the prolonged incident of the mountain gods.
Kanako is a classical god with a long history, but she is also a progressive god who actively adopts new things. This could be because she is a god who entered Suwako's country later, or it may be just her personality.
The Kanako Yasaka of our world would actively incorporate various scientific technologies while calling them technological innovations and utilizing them in gathering faith. But what would have happened if Kanako had focused on technological innovation even before coming to Gensokyo? Or if she had been pursuing technological innovation during the prolonged incident? This could have led to Kanako having a long and drawn-out confrontation with Hakurei Shrine and the Youkai Mountain.
In our world, it seems Kanako made the arbitrary decision for Moriya Shrine to enter Gensokyo. But what if she had gained sufficient understanding and approval from Sanae and Suwako? The three gods would have been well prepared to confront Hakurei Shrine and the Youkai Mountain. The Kanako Yasaka of our world may have thought that she did not need that much power, but it is possible that the Kanako of this world thought differently. And although Kanako is a powerful god (with declining faith), she is not in a position to openly enter Gensokyo without permission. Without the approval of Yakumo Yukari, the other sages who manage Gensokyo, or a being of the same rank, the Moriya Shrine's entry into Gensokyo would not have been possible.
Who decided that this world's Moriya Shrine could enter Gensokyo? How did they make that decision? And for what reason? For now, the answers to these questions remain a mystery.
Attacks
Yamadashi
The Spread Shot of Kanako Yasaka from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain (a Touhou LW original). She attacks with a freshly cut onbashira. Onbashira are wooden pillars used for festivals that function as a symbolic renewal of the shrine. When an onbashira is cut from the sacred forest, it represents the beginning of the festival. The onbashira from the mountain reaches the village after overcoming various difficult trials.

Satobiki
The Spread Shot of Kanako Yasaka from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain (a Touhou LW original). This attack recreates the festival where the onbashira are paraded around and erected. The onbashira that were moved from the mountain to the village are paraded around the various shrines and then arranged to become sacred pillars. This spectacular festival is the most exciting part of the divine ritual.

God Sign: Beautiful Spring Like Suiga
A Spell Card of Kanako Yasaka from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain. She attacks with clear spring water. Moriya Shrine is deeply connected with water. Water is the source of all life, so water-related deities have been strongly worshipped since ancient times. However, this is only one aspect of these gods. When a god of water becomes violent, they become a god of floods and water hazards. Gods of water have been worshiped so fervently and for such a long time because they clearly portray the dual nature of divine spirits―harmony and violence.

A Spell Card of Kanako Yasaka from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain. A cedar tree with a forked trunk provides a blessing of marriage in this attack. Even in this modern age, marriage is still one of the most sought-after blessings in the world. This is because marriage is an eternal theme that is beyond the control of individuals. However, marriage is inextricably linked to divorce, which is also beyond the control of individuals. Relationships are always difficult.

Suwa's Dragon Faith
The Last Word of Kanako Yasaka from the world with squabbling gods on the mountain (a Touhou LW original). A god called Takeminakata is said to have a body of a snake. Dragon and serpent gods are said to be gods of water, weather, sky, and life. However, in a myth, Takemikazuchi tore off Takeminakata's arms (or arm depending on how it is read) in a battle of strength. One can assume the two gods of Suwa would have mixed feelings if this is how Takeminakata came to have the body of a snake and was born anew as a dragon serpent god.
