Midaki sano Mura

The High Tree Village is primarily a mining town, and few women or families live here, just mostly samurai and the heimin that work the mine. Some say the spirit of the Twilight Mountains, the Shakoki Dogu haunts the village at night, inhabiting floating lights that flash throughout the mountains. Few villagers are willing to travel deeper into the mountains, and none walk alone at night, not even in the village streets, and certainly not in the mine. (3E p. 287)
