forest spirit
Trees' mystical inhabitant
A forest spirit is a supernatural being believed to inhabit or protect woodlands.
Such entities appear across world mythologies—dryads in Greek tradition, kodama in Japanese folklore, leshy in Slavic belief.
They may guard trees, punish those who harm the forest, or simply embody the mysterious quality of wild places.
In fantasy fiction and games, forest spirits often serve as guardians or guides: The forest spirit warned travelers away from the sacred grove.
