Description:
Lady Liora Shimizu is the youngest daughter of the influential Shimizu clan of Sakuramori, a prosperous city known for its cherry blossom forests and silk trade, three days' journey from Tengai-no-mori. Her birth as a Spirit Folk to the traditionally cutthroat Shimizu family created quite a stir - while publicly celebrated as a blessing, privately it has caused tension as her inherent benevolence and connection to nature clashes with her family's aggressive business practices in lumber and mining. She secretly uses her allowance and influence to protect sacred groves from her family's exploitation and aids displaced farmers. Her ethereal beauty and genuine kindness have made her beloved among the common people, much to her family's confusion and occasional embarrassment. Recently, she's begun having vivid dreams of her past life as a guardian of natural places, leading her to question her place in her family's mercantile empire.
