This is where Aura will manifest in Roya each day.
This is the one location in Roya where Aura can read books. This ends the day and advances the progress for that book by one step. Note that certain Perversion traits will extend the amount of steps required for completion, or even make it impossible to read when the Cursed status effect is active. Reading of lewd books is not affected.
The Recall ability in the Special category under Skill will bring Aura here. It is available right after the prologue, however certain circumstances will temporarily disable its use.
The first teleportation portal is encountered here, though there are no destinations available initially. When another portal is activated, Aura will be able to teleport between them freely. Combined with Recall, this makes the shrine a travel hub of sorts. Available destinations (once unlocked) include:
The day can be ended instantly at the teleportation portal here, or any of the others. This is the least efficient way of ending the day; reading a book, upgrading gear at the blacksmith, learning an ability or doing one of the jobs is more rewarding.
Gold x35 from the skeleton
Clear Gem from the sparkles on the upper right (will not appear on New Game+, however it is retained in the inventory across playthroughs)
Should Aura start the day at 0 willpower, Spending Day Masturbating 1 or Spending Day Masturbating 2 will trigger automatically. If certain H-scenes are available, these will be selectable instead.
Reading erotic books also counts as H-scenes, as it raises lewd stats and resets Womb of Lust.
