Annie will definitely be visiting a bunch of shrines, because clearly there's something linking the people who were dragged here, she needs more data, etc.
Her own shrine will be an open-faced dollhouse-sized construct lovingly crafted from an assortment of apparently-random stuff - think pipe cleaners and popsicle sticks and mismatched utensils, scraps of fabric and beads and feathers. It will be very well constructed, but look like the building materials were scavenged from someone's junk drawer. Inside the shrine will be three pictures. Two of these are actual photographs, one of a group of high school aged girls in cheerleading uniforms, and one of a roller derby team. The third is a flyer for a knife act. None of them have the same name on them - Annie's position in the two photographs corresponds with the names "Melody West" and "Annie Thompson" respectively, and the third is for a Timpani Brown. There's a small plaque at the base of the shrine labeled "The Precise Priestess - may her blades fly ever true".
There will be at least two copies of the shrine, because Annie is definitely going to try to destroy the damned thing at least once.
Anyone leaving an offering at Annie's shrine will find themself in a pocket dimension midway through banishing an eldritch horror. Since your average eldritch horror doesn't much like cooperating with banishment, they'll first get to experience the pain of being unmade by a being of entropy, including flashes of people dying because they/she wasn't there when she was supposed to be because she'll never have existed, and when that threat doesn't work, they get to experience being burned alive from the inside out by their/her own magic.
Unfortunately, succeeding in banishing the eldritch horror doesn't undo the damage it's done, so after a brief chat with the anima mundi once it's been magically dewormed, they'll get to experience slipping away while their friends try desperately to revive them. Have fun?
