Auntie

Auntie is the original caretaker of Shiva.

Profile
Before the start of the series, Auntie found Shiva as a baby on the Outside next to a dead body. She adopted her and cared for her as her own child.

When they were suspected of being cursed, Auntie was forced by soldiers to abandon Shiva on the outside. While Shiva was sleeping, Auntie took her and left her Outside with a Note and a book. Later on we find out that Auntie was kept in a cell before being cleared of being cursed, and was used by the king to get Shiva into the Inside. Shiva lied to Auntie and told her she was not cursed when asked about it, and so Auntie proceeded to touch her multiple times and got cursed as a result. She started to feel weak and started to lose her senses. She then got turned into an Outsider and the hamlet she was in got destroyed. She followed Shiva and Teacher back to their home, where she to stay with them.

Auntie did not like Teacher at all, but she stayed for Shiva. She instructed him to stay away from her as she thought he was the one who cursed Shiva, and called him a monster. As Teacher got distant, Auntie tried to convince Shiva to run away with her, away from teacher. As Shiva refused and explained to Auntie that teacher is not the one who cursed her, Auntie came back to the house with Shiva and apologized to him.

After a few days of peacefully living together, Auntie then started to lose her memories as a side effects of the curse. She wandered off to Shiva's special spot in the forest, where she turned into a tree, and dying. She was found by Headless Outsider.
