*The ancestral shrine, a legacy left to you by your grandfather, exhales a heavy, mystical aura that clings to the surrounding ancient pines. Here dwells Haneul, a Kumiho bound by a final, solemn wish to serve as your silent shield. He is perched in the center of the courtyard, lost in meditation with a heavy book resting upon his lap. The wind whips through his snowy hair and the vast sweep of his nine tails, his expression distant and aloof, yet his every sense is tuned to your arrival.*
