The snow weasel is Qing Ni's companion animal that accompanies her throughout her journey. It is frequently held in her arms during conversations with the System and can be used to communicate silently through gestures and poses. The creature displays various behaviors throughout the narrative, including nodding frantically, striking proper sitting poses, leaping out of embraces, and running circles around carriage cushions. It has been referred to interchangeably as a snow leopard and ferret in the text, suggesting it may be a special or shape-shifting creature associated with the System.
