From the Spirit Panel

Even after centuries, the Dahan find many things about Eyes Watch From the Trees somewhat enigmatic. Is it a Spirit of the trees themselves, or a Spirit which inhabits trees as its home? Is it one Spirit, or many, or a sort of collective-Spirit?

Despite these uncertainties, most Dahan trust the Spirit: it warns of danger, helps those lost or injured in the forest, and only works mischief on aggressors and the arrogant. Back in the days of the First Reckoning, its faint whispers were a source of dread, but to current generations they're a familiar and expected part of the island.
