I'm glad you liked the story. I adore stories that connect folk beliefs and nature, especially the origin of words. Grandmothers are often mentioned here in toponyms and names of plants (grandmother's tooth, grandmother's hip, grandmother's stream...) and stories.
One of the reasons is probably that they practiced rituals and traditions and passed down customs from generation to generation. Thank you @ewkaw :)
