Lady of the Forest

The Lady of the Forest was the spirit who allowed the kitsune Snowflake to enter the mortal realm. Snowflake had to take three taboos to be allowed this privelege, and quickly met and married Soshi Eiji. The Lady of the Forest came to Eiji on the day of the wedding, revealing to him the third taboo. That Snowflake would have to marry within a year, and to a good man.
