Description
LORE:
“She remains where the blossoms fall, a silver shadow in the quiet of the moss. Neither dead nor truly gone, she waits for a word never spoken, her form etched forever into the garden’s memory”
In Japanese folklore, the Yurei (幽霊) is a spirit kept from a peaceful afterlife by intense emotions like resentment, sorrow, or a desire for revenge. Traditionally, they are depicted as women in white funeral kimonos with long, disheveled black hair, appearing translucent and lacking feet.
