Tales circled through the villages... stories used to grab the attention of outsiders and draw them in so they would go and hunt for myths and legends. Spending lots of money along the way. The latest tale that had the outsiders buzzing was that of a woman with skin kissed by the sun so perfectly to blend with the wild landscapes of plains forest and Jungle. Living amongst the wild animals as if one of them. Protecting the isolated villages and villagers though she was clearly not of these lands. She was not of these lands went the stories... Looking more like the Europeans who flooded their lands for Queen and crown to civilize the savages and bring order to lands claimed by the crown
Many a soldier and fortune hunter trekked into the wilds in search of this beauty for a vast array of reasons but thus far those who made it back always returned empty handed. The Natives believed the outsiders would aways return empty handed keeping the mystery and allure of the wilds and lost ruins safe for a very long time.
The villagers called her Keria and they are more than willing to tell the outsiders it is a losse translation to their language of Death spirit. That she kills those that bring harm and devour their soul to renew her own. But what was her REAL story was anyones guess... Anyone but the village that found her.
