...There are many legends circulating in villages and towns, but there is one that is passed down from mouth to mouth and has hardly changed over the years - the legend of Shi. Who she is and where she came from is unknown to anyone for certain. She is feared and respected. She controls the forces of nature and looks into people's souls... The legend is dedicated to the talented author, a wonderful person and my creative friend - Alexander Grebenkin. Thank you for your sensitivity, advice and kind attitude!
