::Animal Guardians of Camauren::
Animal guardians were summoned from the inner world by the first shamans in Camauren. They originally served as aids to the shamans, guarding the cities from outsiders and physical threats. They took the shape of trusted animals within the cities, and are capable of sharing strong, life bonds with pure-hearted people. They are capable of speaking telepathically to shamans, though sometimes require an object to do so.
After the sudden disappearance of shamans around Camauren, the animal guardians lost control, and many of them became wild, attacking humans, and even causing mass panic. People lost faith in the guardians, and eventually, began to hunt them down. Currently, most of the guardians are hidden or protected from the citizens, and are nothing but legends to the common citizens around Camauren.
Some cities only have a single animal guardian, while others have multiple guardians. However, there is one city, Kagirinai Arashi, which has no animal guardians. There are legends of a white elk that once protected the Long Valley, however, the only white elk discovered there was killed on a trophy hunt, and its body vanished soon after.
