Itämurenaraätien

Itämurenaraätien is a fictional species originating from the novel "The Whispering Woods" by author Elara Vance. These beings are described as arboreal creatures native to the ancient forests of the planet Xylos. Physically, they are characterized by their slender, elongated limbs, prehensile tails, and large, luminous eyes that allow them to navigate the dim forest canopy. Their skin is said to be a mottled green and brown, providing excellent camouflage amongst the dense foliage.

The Itämurenaraätien are depicted as possessing a unique form of telepathic communication, allowing them to share thoughts and emotions within their social groups without vocalization. This ability is deeply intertwined with the natural environment of Xylos, with some scholars in the novel suggesting their telepathy is amplified by the planet's unique flora. They are generally portrayed as peaceful and reclusive, preferring to avoid contact with other sentient species. Their diet consists primarily of fruits, nuts, and certain luminous fungi found within their forest habitat.

Their society is organized into small, nomadic clans, each led by an elder who possesses the strongest telepathic connection to the group and the forest itself. The Itämurenaraätien are known for their deep respect for nature and their intricate understanding of the Xylosian ecosystem. Their role in the narrative of "The Whispering Woods" often involves acting as silent guardians of the forest, occasionally intervening to protect it from external threats, though their methods are subtle and often go unnoticed.
