Description

The Stillmire Shaman stands knee-deep in murk, draped in moss, bone charms, and spirit-tethers that glow with sickly marshlight. Ghostly forms drift at its side, answering subtle gestures and whispered prayers in Naku Naku. Its presence bends the swamp itself, as if the mire listens when it speaks.
