EPIMELIADS

Greek Tree Spirits

Also known as Epimeliades, Epimelides

Guardians of Woolly Trees

Woodland Tree Nymphs. These are actually Meliae, the spirits of ash and fruit trees.

But, apparently due to a garbled translation from the Greek, some sources list them as Protectors of Sheep. So we’ve sheepishly given them a second entry. Just in case.
