Guardians

From The Yuriban Encyclopedia

The Guardians are a small group of inhabitants of Yuriba who have been chosen (whether by the island itself or by The Lady is uncertain) from out of the general populace. It appears that the criteria for being chosen requires a strong devotion to and love of Yuriba. Their role seems to be dedicated to the protection and preservation of the natural state of things on the island; as such, typically only long-term residents or native beings are chosen as Guardians. The currently known active Guardians are breisleach and Merin. More may or may not exist, choosing to keep their affiliation private. Whether or not this is the full contingent, those known Guardians have been overheard discussing concern over their numbers.

It is hypothesized, and all but proven, that the Guardians are connected to or involved with the Sentries.

Legend states that the first Guardian was chosen in ages past after the appearance of a Green one of Tsuki's Tears, though if this is true or not is as uncertain as most other things relating to Guardians.
