There were no tombstones in orochi territory. Slain warriors were buried with a tree sapling, so they would become a part of the forest after death.

Where it came from
The Sakura-Tribe Elder card from the Junior APAC Series was released as part of a promotional initiative designed to encourage participation in Magic: The Gathering within the Asia-Pacific region. These cards were distributed through organized play events, specifically targeting younger demographics to foster a burgeoning local community. By utilizing the popular Sakura-Tribe Elder, a staple card in gameplay, the series provided an accessible yet distinct version of a card that held significant utility in various constructed formats.
The artwork for this specific iteration was provided by Carl Critchlow, a prolific illustrator known for his distinct, sometimes grim or gritty stylistic approach to fantasy creatures. For this piece, Critchlow was tasked with adapting the card to the regional aesthetic branding of the APAC series. The illustration maintains the essence of the original Kamigawa-era creature while adhering to the framing and layout constraints dictated by the promotional nature of the release, resulting in a sought-after variation among collectors who value regional distribution rarities.
