The Miko's Words and the Witch's Incantations

From the writer who brought you Iono the Fanatics...

Slightly egotistical but certainly not evil Witch Letty (or Reti) is visiting Japan; because in her words, she's a "architecture buff." This hobby has led her into investigating a shrine off in the middle of nowhere; which actually has a magical barrier preventing anyone from entering. Knowing a trick or two she sneaks inside and encounters....Tsumugi, the local Barrier Maiden Miko who gathers Mana from the local mountain god for the government should it ever need it. But it's a task she must do ever alone since childhood.

Her sensibilities irritated that someone would just lock away another human being, Letty impetuously smashes the barrier and declares Tsumugi free. Tsumugi is flabbergasted, as she would have no idea what to do in the outside world that she has never known, and points out that if Letty is so adamant about this, she has to take her with her. And so they run off together into the night on Letty's broomstick.

What follows is Letty and Tsumugi getting to know each other more and more and finding out that they're attracted to each other. But other circumstances conspire that could keep them apart. Tsumugi was kept in the shrine of the Mountain God for more than one reason, and the family in charge of her is out looking for her....

Ultimately a fluffy story with a happy ending.

Tropes used in The Miko's Words and the Witch's Incantations include:

Adult Child: The mountain god is depicted more or less like this in the afterword.
- Much of Letty's early concern regarding considering Tsumugi "that way" is that Tsumugi may not be mature enough to know the difference between romantic love and friendship.
Akeno Watanabe: Isuzu's voice actor in the drama CD.
Bargain with Heaven: The Mountain God willingly gives some of her power to Letty so that her presence purifies the air around her, while the god takes Tsumugi's place in the shrine. It's implied that Letty now has to work for the god; but so far all the god seems interested in is hitting on Isuzu.
Blind Idiot Translation: According to chapter 2, Letty comes from Germany. According to the afterword in chapter 6, her full name is actually Gretia Deetolihi, which doesn't sound very German. This is likely the result of a poor translator mangling "Gretia Dietrich", which does sound German, and Reti makes more sense as a diminutive for Gretia, and Word of God also gives her name as Reti rather than Letty.
- Southern German, to be more exact, probably Bavaria or around that corner.
Bodyguard Crush: Isuzu, for Tsumugi. This might get redirected to the mountain god itself, though.
Cameo: A few of Letty's friends are from the writer's other series.
Cute Witch: Letty, naturally.
Crossover: Letty and Tsumugi in one scene are customers at The Amber Teahouse from Ame-iro Kouchakan Kandan.
Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Letty's intention when she challenges the mountain god to allow Tsumugi to live in the outside world. ...well, her intention, anyways. It gets more complicated.
Expy: Muggle versions of Ron Weasley and Harry Potter show up and try to get Tsumugi to join their Cosplay Cafe.
God in Human Form: The spell that Letty casts gives this to the Mountain God, who takes the form of Tsumugi.
Hime Cut: Tsumugi.
Hitomi Nabatame: Letty's voice actor in the drama CD.
The Ingenue: Tsumugi.
Love At First Sight: Tsumugi for Letty; and the Mountain God seems to have this for Isuzu.
Mamiko Noto: Tsumugi's voice actor in the drama CD.
Meganekko: Letty.
Miko: Tsumugi, of course.
New Season, New Name: It was originally called The Caged Miko and the Whimsical Witch until Yuri Shimai became Yuri Hime.
One Head Taller: Letty is quite a bit taller than Tsumugi.
Red String of Fate: Quite literally. Letty makes a spell to always show her where Tsumugi is; which manifests as an invisible red string that only they can perceive; not realizing the cultural implications.
Too Good for This Sinful Earth: The outside world is actually poisonous to Tsumugi. Letty and the Mountain God come up with an interesting solution.
Unsound Effect: The Mountain God offers Isuzu some sweet rice balls with a "Proffer!".
Witch Species: Letty. She's more spiritual than she lets on, is familiar with deity names.
The White Prince: Nowhere to be seen. For a bit of irony, one of Tsumugi's favorite fairy tales was The White Prince and the Black Witch. "I dreamed of a Prince who would come save me. I never thought it would be the Witch." And to further drive the point home, Letty dresses in all black.
Where Are They Now: After the last chapter we get a short description of the characters relations after presumably around half a year along with the afterword.
