AI interpretation of Kpassè’s royal-tree association.
Modern AI interpretation. Symbolic grove imagined.
Overview
Reporter Thomas Azanmasso attributes the account to tourism guide Florisse Adéossi: Kpassè, described as Savi’s second king and Houéda founder, mysteriously disappears and becomes an iroko in the forest.
The king’s incarnation makes the grove sacred. The report distinguishes this living association from its open-air sculptures, including panther emblems and royal successors. This is a contemporary attributed tradition, not independently verified metamorphosis or royal chronology.
