The Ancestor
The Ancestor archetype — lineage, inherited duty, wisdom, and ghosts that still set the table.
The Ancestor appears as grandparent, old photo come alive, or land you do not own but must tend. Not only death dreams — continuity questions.
Gift and shadow
Gift: roots, ritual, intergenerational repair. Shadow: rigid tradition, guilt as compass.
