Roblón
The roblón is an animated tree with human features, a giant of Cantabrian mythology. It possesses a thick mane of nearly dry grass that falls in long tufts from its highest branches. It has a brow of beech wood, rough and wide, and one enormous, broad branch that serves as its nose. Finally, a forest of heather shrubs forms its beard. Below its head, two enormous birch trunks emerge as arms, with a multitude of branches for fingers. Its legs are an accumulation of robust, sinewy ash trees. Of oak, only its jaws and its heart can be recognized.
When the roblón reaches the limit of its growth, it pulls hard at its roots and begins to walk. In its advance it destroys everything it finds before it. It sows terror throughout the forest.
