I want to thank my mentor, Ilya Golitsyn, who helped a lot with the creation of this character.

This spirit was born centuries ago as a legend about the Guarding trees. Folklore tells the stories about children who hid under the branches of enormous trees during nomad invasions. But ages of oblivion made no good to this spirit. Now, when it got a form, it appears to be a terrifying demon that builds its body from the flesh of its victims.
