Wolf Sentinel Lesser Yaoguais

Description

Long ago, the "Wolf Sentinel" iconWolf Sentinels were the personal guards of old "Lingxuzi" iconLingxuzi. They were masters of the long-hafted axe, and their name was spoken in awe among the yaoguais.

When the "Black Wind King" iconBlack Wind King returned from Guanyin and rebuilt the garrison in the mountain, he took in many wolf guais who had wandered here from Shituo Ridge. This angered the wolf guais native to Black Wind Mountain. To appease them, the "Black Bear Guai" iconBlack Bear Guai pledged to revive old Lingxuzi. The wolf guais then had no choice but to endure in silence. Yet mere days after the awakening, the old wolf vanished, and no one had seen him since. Upon learning of this, the black bear did not look into the matter but allowed a senior grey wolf guai from the Kingdom of Shituo to take old Lingxuzi’s seat and even his name.

This roused the local wolf guais to fury and launched protest after protest. To their surprise, the Wolf Sentinels, at the Black Bear Guai’s behest, seized the lesser guais who led the unrest. The new Lingxuzi flew into a rage at these guais, threatening to devour them whole. They were spared this fate only by the timely arrival of "Guangzhi" iconGuangzhi, the Fireblade Wolf.
Thereafter, under the new Lingxuzi’s command, the Wolf Sentinels led every patrol of lesser guais on the mountain. Never did anyone ever dare rise against Lingxuzi again.

Poetry

With his axe as both weapon and cane,
His brows bushy, his hair white as snow,
Who claims the twilight years are in vain?
For learning late can still make one grow.
