Ao (青, Ao) is Shin-Ah's squirrel companion and friend, who is named after the previous Seiryuu by Shin-Ah.
Ao has light brown fur with pink ears, big black eyes with white cheeks and belly.
Ao is a goofy and mischievous yet adorable squirrel, often playing around and making poses that match the person she is riding on. She likes to eat a lot which makes her bite on random things, like Yona's earrings or Shin-Ah's finger. She tries to make people (specifically Shin-Ah or Yona) cheer up if they are feeling down or sad by rubbing their face or acting cute. She also likes to stuff food into peoples mouths.
Ao met Shin-Ah before the events of the story. Shin-Ah was trying to cover a very soaked Ao from the rain with a large leaf. Ao just stared at him and then suddenly started to eat the leaf.Ever since then, she seems to have stayed with Shin-Ah, keeping him company even underground in the darkness, riding on his shoulder, proving that she is committed to being Shin-Ah's companion.
