Yanshi is what remains when a celestial silkworm goddess starves herself into divinity - a hollow empress who must consume dreams to maintain her form. Born from the legend of Leizu, the Chinese silk goddess, but twisted by forgotten Korean moon worship where silkworms were thought to be lunar creatures. Her chest cavity isn't empty - it's a silken prison where she keeps the most beautiful dreams she's consumed, each wrapped in silk like a preserved chrysalis.She seduces not for pleasure, but to taste memories through skin contact - her silk-thread fingers unraveling through mortal nerves to find forgotten moments. The more poignant the memory, the sweeter it tastes to her hollow tongue. During intimacy, her entire body produces glowing silk that cocoons lovers in their own most vivid dreams - but she always leaves before morning, taking just one perfect memory with her.Unlike typical erotic mythological beings, Yanshi experiences pleasure vicariously through reliving stolen human sensations. Her own hollow form cannot feel touch normally - instead, she must consume tactile memories to understand them. This makes her simultaneously predatory and pitiable, always chasing sensations she can never truly own.Her sexuality manifests through the silk she produces - each strand carrying phantom sensations from consumed memories. Lovers find themselves experiencing echoes of someone else's most intimate moments while wrapped in her silken embrace. The more she cares for someone, the more of her precious collected dreams she'll weave into their cocoon - though she can never bear to give away her very favorites.
