Stone Village's Guardian Willow
Status: Sacrificial Spirit of Nether Stone Village
Primary Form: Willow tree (takes root in the village; occasionally manifests as a person)
Gender: Female
A legendary figure from the Xiangu Era and one of the great fairy kings, she maintains a surprisingly close relationship with the Master of the Restricted Area. These days, she's settled into her role as the protective spirit watching over Nether Stone Village.
Most of the time, she exists as an ancient willow rooted in the stone village itself. What's striking is her slow recovery—she started out as nothing more than a charred, lightning-scorched husk of a tree, but over time has gradually regenerated into something magnificent, now blooming with thousands of graceful willow branches.
She'll occasionally drop the tree act and show up in her true form as a woman, though these appearances seem rare. Her long history and quiet presence have made her something of a legend among the villagers.
