As often is the case with my interests and projects, it occurred to me that many of you may be unfamiliar with the term “Kyorinrin”.
Kyorinrin: A Japanese tsukumogami (animated object spirit) that forms from unread, neglected books and scrolls, manifesting with paper-like arms to chastise those who ignore knowledge
I love the idea that objects that are meant to be used can eventually develop into animated spirits to chastise or otherwise harass people who have neglected those objects.
I mean, really, what kind of monster neglects books and scrolls?
