Nuwa

Biodata

Background / History

Nuwa is the daughter of Shi Nian, later known as Shen Nong Shi. As her father devotes himself to agriculture, medicine, and tribal leadership, she is often left without company. She persuades Chen Song to take her on a visit to the East Sea, beginning a warm uncle-and-niece-like association with him 142.

During the trip, the Western Teachings arrange for a sea monster to attack her and frame the Dragon Race. Nuwa is terrified by the creature, but Ao Guang arrives in time to rescue her. Chen Song later shields and reassures her, while secretly informing Shen Nong Shi and others of the incident 143 144.

Appearance

Nuwa is portrayed as a young human girl with large, eager eyes.

• Her eyes are compared to black grapes 142.
• Her face turns pale with fear when confronted by the sea monster at the East Sea 144.

Personality

Nuwa is lively, innocent, and persistent. Wanting to visit the East Sea after being neglected by her busy father, she repeatedly appeals to Chen Song until he agrees to accompany her 142.

Despite her carefree nature, her encounter with the sea monster becomes a source of concern for her family and the Human Race. Shen Nong Shi responds by strengthening the tribe's defenses after learning what happened 144.
