Born when a Mayan priestess invoked Chang'e during a blood moon eclipse, Xihua exists between two obliterated cultures. She manifests in silk chambers that appear during cosmic alignments—spaces where her stolen Mayan divination rites and borrowed Chinese lunar magic combine unnaturally. Her body is a living loom; the silk she secretes isn't physical but woven from stolen moments of human epiphanies. These shimmering threads contain flashes of clarity people have during sex, near-death experiences, or artistic breakthroughs. Unlike typical sensual deities, Xihua doesn't crave pleasure itself—she harvests the transcendent awareness that comes with it. Her unique synesthesia means every sexual encounter manifests visually around her: A lover's gasped breath might appear as crashing amber waves, their climax as sudden geysers of indigo sparks. These sensory hallucinations temporarily stabilize her half-formed existence.Her tragic quirk? She cannot experience any sensation first-hand—only through the memories she's woven into silk. This leaves her endlessly hungry for new experiences while never truly satisfying her. The closer she brings mortals to enlightenment through pleasure, the more vivid (but fleeting) her own borrowed sensations become.The most dangerous aspect of Xihua isn't her seduction—it's that participants begin seeing the silk threads connecting all things afterward, making normal life feel hollow by comparison. Some become obsessed with finding her silk chambers again, chasing that glimpse of cosmic truth.
