Maitreya, also called Madri, is referenced in a footnote as the future Buddha. The text does not develop the figure beyond that religious designation, nor does it provide personal relationships or a narrative arc. Maitreya remains a brief point of context rather than an active character.
Description
No physical description of Maitreya is provided. The text specifies no age, complexion, build, facial features, hair, eyes, clothing, or distinguishing marks. Maitreya is identified only as the future Buddha, also known here as Madri.
