The Wiakava Sisters Association, the predecessor to the Children of the Forest, was a secretive sect composed entirely of Witches. They usually lived in deep and dense forests, coexisting with the forest and Magical Beasts, excelling in gathering plants, concocting Magic Potions, and manipulating flora.
Historically, the Association had always stayed behind the scenes, not involving themselves in worldly affairs. Only in recent decades had they started to emerge from the forest and re-enter human society. Many Witches leveraged their exquisite potion-making skills to infiltrate the upper echelons of various royal kingdoms.
Old Dorothy had, more than once, used the network of the Wiakava Sisters Association to extricate herself from troubles she could not solve. This time, however, the aura and strength displayed by the Eastern Monk were far beyond the Forest Witch Old Dorothy's ability to handle. Even within the entire Wiakava Sisters Association, few could match him.
