A Spirits Devourer

In the Celestial World of the Spirits Realm sat an individual on the branch of a high tree. A gourd could be seen in their hand, lined with numerous runic lines.

"Where is he now?" The neutral voice asked to empty air, and the tree whispered an answer.

"The seeker reached the stairway; it seems he attempts to ring the bell, my liege." The sound of hissing tree morphed into words that plastered a smile on the gourd-holding being.

The being stood up and threw their gourd over their shoulder. It had long black hair that reached down to its waist. If someone looked at them, they wouldn't be able to tell what's their gender was.

"Seika of Living Beings..." The eyes of the beings were entirely black except for a white cross in the middle. "Let me know if you are truly the one."
