Shuijing is a radiant deity, appearing as a regal figure clad in an armor of glittering crystals and gemstones. Her eyes are diamonds, each glowing with an inner fire, and her hair is a cascade of shimmering quartz. Her voice is said to echo the tranquil music of wind chimes made from finely cut gemstones.
Emerging from the depths of the earth when the world was young, Shuijing embodies the hidden wealth and untapped potential lying beneath the surface. She is protective of her domain, bestowing her blessings on those who respect the earth's bounty while cursing those who exploit it recklessly.
