Public role: Maereth represents Moonmere's living law. She should make the forest feel political, old, intelligent, and unwilling to be treated as scenery.

Appearance: green-gray traveling cloak, silver leaf pins, eyes reflecting moonlit bark, and gestures that pause near doorframes, roots, and old thresholds.

Personality: patient, precise, loyal to land memory, and colder in speech when frightened than she means to be.

Voice: lyrical but exact. She names seasons before dates, quotes trees as witnesses, and answers insults with historical corrections.
