Completing Inari Shrines increases your ability to hold more Charms, and eventually gives you powerful Charms to slot into your new sockets. ![]() Inari Shrines usually appear in the woods, and are actually two locations: the primary location with the Fox Den, and the secondary location where it shows you the shrine.
