Dear Monastery Lead.
My name is Jessica Fukumoto, I wish to be apart of the establishment. I grew up in a religious family that knows Shinto as we know it, I had always loved hearing my dear sister talk about it all the time and how she had wished to be in a place like this.

My sister had died of a heart attack not so long ago, I just pray that my sister would be right there by my side once again and to help guide those in need of guidance like I am.
BACKSTORY (100+ Words):
Jessica grew up with a highly religious home where they would offer everything they had, money, good and prayers every single day. Jessica and her sister were always made fun of in school for having a "weird" religion. There was nothing for them to do but pray and offer for the better and hope their wishes came true. A few years later, Jessica's sister had a heart attack at the age of 20 and died. Everyones heart was broken but Jessica's was shattered and lost. So she came upon this paper in the mail for the Shinsei Seinaru Monastery hiring for Maidens. She thought this was where she could find herself again, her sister and to help guide others.
