La-Ko is known for its slow, deliberate movements. It spends most of its time burrowing through the soil, creating tunnels that allow air and water to penetrate deeper into the ground. These tunnels also serve as pathways for other small creatures, contributing to the biodiversity of the forest floor. Despite its daunting appearance, La-Ko is a gentle giant, interacting peacefully with its surroundings and other inhabitants of the forest.
Among the inhabitants of Sorn-Lai, La-Ko is revered as a symbol of fertility and renewal. The Echowalkers, in particular, have rituals celebrating La-Ko's contributions to the forest. They believe that the presence of La-Ko ensures the continued prosperity of their environment, and they often leave offerings of plant matter near its burrows as a sign of respect and gratitude.
