Furji: The Whispering Weaver
Origin
Furji is not born of infernal pacts or primordial chaos. Instead, it arose from the collective anxieties and unspoken desires of a forgotten civilization, a people whose whispers and secrets were woven into the very fabric of their existence. When their civilization crumbled into dust, those woven anxieties and desires manifested as Furji, a being of pure, unsettling energy.
