Shenmi

"The home of the Snake Spirit, home to its people, the Snake Acolytes." -Dunqil Marross.

Shenmi is one of the Sacred Sites of the Guardians of Sundown. It is the home of Shehen, The Snake Spirit.

The Age of The Sword (First Iteration)
Shenmi was once a place flourishing with culture, with those living there following the ways of Shehen, the Guardian Spirit living there, mastering the Snake Style of Martial Arts, and honing their Ki. The culture revolves around the concepts of the snake, those of cunning and intelligence. Like many of the Sacred Sites, the denizens of Shenmi have a chosen champion, in this case, a Snake Shifter named Shun Mae, who wields the Soul Weapon of Shehen, The Serpent.

When Taliesin arrived, and corrupted Shehen, Shenmi fell into a paranoid frenzy. The curse of the corrupted spirit affected the people, that every night, those affected would be filled with a murderous paranoia towards each other, only to lose their memories of the night's events by morning.
