The red mane down my spine felt like a blaze of vengeance. Maybe that flame will keep burning and consume me completely. So what if it does?A History of Vengeance 3Knowledge: OtherThe government soldiers can't be trusted. The Council of Empyrean Fangs is no better. They did nothing while my brethren were slaughtered. All inhabitants of Baek-Ah shall answer for what happened in Muwon. I'll take everything from them. Just as they took everything from me.A Letter for Miller 1Knowledge: OtherHey, loser. How are you doing? I bet you're rotting away in some crappy corner of a wagon, swigging from a bottle like the sorry bastard you are. I can only imagine. I'm not one for putting pen to paper, but this time, I have something to tell you. Believe it or not... I've got a daughter now.A Letter for Miller 2Knowledge: OtherWhen Jenny first placed the baby in my arms, I froze up for a second. Life is funny, though. Once it hits you, you adjust a lot faster than you think you would. And this little one... is actually cuter than I'd expected. Must be because she takes after her mom.A Letter for Miller 3Knowledge: OtherAnyway, if this letter finds you, make your way to Tanzgrad in Vmerznut. Jenny wants the girl to meet her godfather and get baptized before she gets much bigger. Whether you're actually godfather material... Well, we'll settle that when you get here. - Bud, the best damn marksman on the continent, no doubt about itA Maid's Cooking Journal 1Knowledge: OtherThey say a proper maid should know how to serve good food, so I decided to learn how to cook too. Slicing, dicing, and mincing ingredients... stuff like that was easy, but cooking is quite a strange and challenging art. Combining ingredients together was especially complicated... I didn't think adding pineapple to pizza would cause a customer to get so upset.A Maid's Cooking Journal 2Knowledge: OtherThe art of cooking contains such a deep philosophy. I found myself wondering if my life as a knight had kept me from exploring bigger things. We even had a heated debate on whether bacon should be served crispy or slightly soft. Watching that endless debate made me realize, much like there isn't just a single path to mastering the sword, cooking too doesn't have just one correct answer. I've decided to create dishes of my own, ones that have never been tried before.A Maid's Cooking Journal 3Knowledge: OtherI decided to make an eel pie. The reason behind my decision to create this dish is simple: eels are creatures that are always brimming with energy. Miss Nia asked me why I wanted to cook eels into pies, but I couldn't even understand why she needed to ask that. The answer was obvious. Pies are delicious. At first, I stuck a whole raw eel straight in the pie, and that made the eel's head protrude from the pie as it baked. After that, Miss Nia helped me. She guided me step by step, from maturing the dough to finding the correct time and baking temperature. Thanks to her help, I succeeded in making a rather decent eel pie. It was a truly meaningful experience, I was able to take another step forward on my path as a maid.A Traveler's Journal 1Knowledge: OtherI was planning to sleep early tonight, but I can't ignore the bizarre sight I just witnessed. I had to write it down. It was a blinding mass of light, so brilliant it nearly scorched my eyes. Strange characters floated around it, their meaning indecipherable. Maybe it was an ancient spell or a curse yet unbroken. All I know is that a warm, mysterious aura surrounded that light.A Traveler's Journal 2Knowledge: OtherWhen I touched the stone tablet that had been hidden behind the mass of light, a series of strange symbols rose into the air. They lined up in the sky, forming what looked like a single sentence, almost like instructions meant for me. Perhaps it was a record of some ancient civilization that once walked this land or a cryptic script of the Creator? Surprisingly, I was able to understand the entire message at once, and I couldn't move for a moment. It reminded me of the Elvish writing I had seen in Serenia, and for a moment, I wondered if it was because of my half-elf blood that I could read it without effort.A Traveler's Journal 3Knowledge: OtherThe mass of light darted around me in quick loops before halting right before my eyes. Peering into its glow, I saw the figure of a small, adorable cat. The cat wore a pointed hat like a wizard, and for a moment, it seemed to be conversing with someone in the distance, its head slightly raised. Yet upon closer look, I saw its lips quivering as if trying to talk to me. Then, a single word surged through my mind, its meaning etched in my thoughts. The name of this magical cat: Oz.About Consciousness Warps - AbstractKnowledge: OtherThe study into Consciousness Warping began with the question: "Can human consciousness be transferred into a machine?" At first, researchers focused on whole-brain emulation, attempting to transfer the entirety of human consciousness into a machine. However, after decades of research, they were ultimately forced to admit failure. Following this, inspired by the fact that brain signals are transmitted as electrical impulses, Code proposed a new hypothesis: it might be possible to induce a Warp within the nervous system to intercept those signals and transmit them directly to a machine. Based on this theory, KrypTiiK resumed its research, this time focusing on the brain's electrical signals.About Consciousness Warps - ConclusionKnowledge: OtherHowever, the limitations of Consciousness Warping quickly became apparent. For one thing, there needed to be a way to keep the original body safely maintained while the brain signals were intercepted and transmitted to a machine. On top of that, mass-producing machines capable of receiving, calculating, and processing neural signals was simply not feasible. Additionally, while the brain signals could be transmitted, the body's chemical responses could not. As a result, human emotions could not be conveyed in their entirety. This absence of emotion eventually led to a far more serious problem as subjects began to lose sight of whether they were human or machine. It was ultimately concluded that prolonged use of Consciousness Warping could have severe effects on the subject's mental state. All of the research findings were preserved by KrypTiiK, but whether this technology would ever see practical use was a mystery.About Consciousness Warps - Research RecordsKnowledge: OtherThe process involved creating a miniature Warp Device inside the body to transfer signals from the brain to a machine, which would then interpret those electrical signals and convert them into command codes that allowed it to control itself. Using this method, experiments to transfer human consciousness into machines succeeded far more easily than expected. Because the brain and machine were effectively connected in real time through the Warp Device, there was no delay, and the subjects could control their mechanical bodies as freely as if they were their own. This breakthrough was celebrated by everyone. There was a sense of exhilaration that humanity might've taken a step forward in evolution alongside machines, finally gaining a chance to stand against the Void.About GisaengKnowledge: OtherThere are three ranks among gisaeng: first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate. The first-rate gisaeng of any gibang possess striking beauty that could topple nations, graceful eloquence that allows them to talk about any topic endlessly, and a refined eye for the arts. To meet such a woman is a rare honor not easily earned. So if a first-rate gisaeng invites you to converse, do not refuse. It is a chance to broaden your horizons.Academic Society Founding Declaration 1Knowledge: OtherIn this world, there are other beings of note beyond humans, animals, and plants. The first are demihumans like elves, orcs, and goblins. They are intelligent and have civilizations of their own. Despite having their own distinct cultures, they are our closest companions. Next are the monsters like cappies and slimes. While they construct ecosystems of their own, communication with them is rarely possible. Thus, information about them is less readily available.Academic Society Founding Declaration 2Knowledge: OtherI am certain that observing and recording the ecology and environment of the whole world, including that of demihumans and monsters, will become a cornerstone of progress for our kingdom. This will be the key to unlocking the next great leap in humanity's progress. From our soil in Solismenamus to the far reaches of the eastern continent beyond the Grand Ocean and even to the accursed Deadlands, nothing shall be excluded from our pursuit of knowledge.Academic Society Founding Declaration 3Knowledge: OtherTherefore, with the blessing of Richard Astravel, the steadfast guardian of this world and my beloved husband, I hereby found the Royal Biological Society of Solismenamus.

In fact, there are many more of them there than there are people in all of Port Vellum. There are just that many Shellymanders in this region. Shellymanders are natural pranksters and love to collect shiny objects. This inevitably leads to frequent conflicts with humans. However, that is not the case with the Shellymanders around Port Vellum. Somehow, they maintain an amicable relationship with the residents there. How is that possible?An Ecological Report on the Shellymanders in Port Vellum 2Knowledge: OtherIn Port Vellum, there is a folk tale about a Shellymander that saved a sailor from drowning. While there might not be more to that than a mere story, it is true that the Shellymanders around Port Vellum live in harmony with the humans. They like to help by plucking barnacles from ships or diving after lost cargo. In return, the people toss them fish and other food. They live in mutual respect and harmony.Beware the Dohwa GardenKnowledge: OtherThe gisaeng of Dohwa Garden aren't just beautiful. Delicate like peach blossoms, they come to bear fruit like peaches: they're ripe with valuable information they coax out of their customers. Once captivated by their beauty, their targets will spill everything they know without even realizing it.Bunnie Martial Arts Primer 1Knowledge: OtherThe core of Bunnie martial arts lies in swift movement.

Nature has been preserved in its pristine form because of a lack of human traffic. Deep in its heart lies Sylvarium, a settlement of elves. The merry laughter of children playing in a nearby creek show how peaceful it is.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 10Knowledge: OtherOver time, Ceris grew into a fine young elf. One sunny day, she left home, like the adventurer she'd seen as a little girl, with a map she bought from a merchant a few days ago.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 11Knowledge: OtherLike that day long ago, elves had gathered at the entrance to Sylvarium to see her off. This time, it was Ceris, with a large rucksack on her back, who walked out. With a bright smile, she said, "I'll be back, everyone."Ceris's Travels - Prologue 12Knowledge: OtherAs if to bless her on this journey, a gentle breeze of Arcana brushed against her cheek. After a warm hug with her sister Ceresbellona, Ceris said her farewell message to her family of the woods. "May the courage to embark on great adventures be with you all." And so Ceris stepped out into the world to begin her own adventures.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 2Knowledge: OtherOne day, little elves played in the water under the sunlight, as is typical for them to do. One elf girl gazed upon the sparkling stream alone, standing away from her friends. Suddenly, they heard a commotion from the village. One female elf came out of Sylvarium and shouted at the elf girl by the stream. "Ceris!" Hearing her name, the girl lifted her head. Seeing the elf woman waving at her, Ceris rushed to her with a big smile.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 3Knowledge: Other"Ceresbellona, what is it?" Hugging her little sister, Ceresbellona replied. "An adventurer has come to our village. We haven't had one in years. Do you want to go see him?" "An adventurer has come this far?" Surprised, Ceris turned her head toward the town. Outsiders rarely made it to Sylvarium. Yet, an adventurer did? Her curiosity piqued, Ceris nodded as she headed to the village hand in hand with her sister.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 4Knowledge: OtherOnce they got there, they heard the voice of a man coming from the square. "I got lost in the woods. Could I stay here for one night, please?" Tuning her ears to the unfamiliar voice, Ceris easily spotted the man. His hat was pulled low and his stance tense as the adventurer cautiously asked the elves for help. Pleased to have a visitor after so long, the elves welcomed him with unexpected warmth and accepted his request without hesitation.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 5Knowledge: OtherWith visible relief on his face, the adventurer thanked them profusely. Putting down his rucksack, he turned to take in Arcana Forest. Finally appreciating the beauty he'd missed when his eyes had been clouded with panic, he let out a gasp of awe. Lowering himself to the forest floor, he opened his adventurer diary and began to sketch the scenic view in front of his eyes. The elves were impressed by his artistry and wanted to see more of his drawings. A bit bashful, the adventurer pulled out a stack of sketchbooks from his bag.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 6Knowledge: OtherCeris darted forward between the other elves and picked up a sketchbook from the pile. As she flipped it open with her small hands, page after page revealed unfamiliar but breathtaking landscapes. Overcome with wonder and longing for a world she had never seen, she stared at the sketches for a long while.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 7Knowledge: OtherAs the elves admired his work, the adventurer told vivid stories of the lands he'd explored. Ceris was captivated. His stories continued late into the night, a rare but merry occasion for the elves.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 8Knowledge: OtherThe next morning, the adventurer packed up to leave. Many elves came to see him off at the entrance of Sylvarium. Ceris, who had been enchanted by his tales the night before, was among them. "May the courage to embark on great adventures be with you all." With a gentle farewell message, the adventurer took off.Ceris's Travels - Prologue 9Knowledge: OtherEver since then, the stories he'd shared kept resurfacing in Ceris's mind. Even in moments when she was enjoying flowers with her friends, tumbling over from a fairy's prank, or chatting with her older sister... The scenes the adventurer had described played vividly in her mind. His parting message lingered deep in her heart, becoming a beacon for her future.Codelium 1Knowledge: OtherA common ore found throughout Nirvan. It may appear to be nothing more exciting than a large, blueish boulder, but it possesses the peculiar ability to absorb and store information within itself. This information refers to things such as the scenery it has captured over countless years through the reflection of light, or the sounds it has recorded through vibrations in the air. The older the Codelium, the more information it contains, and the larger it grows as a result.Codelium 2Knowledge: OtherBecause information continuously accumulates within Codelium over long periods of time, even relatively small pieces can contain an immeasurable amount of data. Nirvan possesses the advanced technology that allows this information to be converted into electrical energy. The most distinctive characteristic of Codelium is that it produces a variety of reactions when its stored information is converted into energy. The appearance of letters across the mineral's surface is one of the most common examples. Other reactions include emitting intense light, producing loud sounds, among many other forms. Because unstable Codelium can pose serious danger, it's generally refined and processed under controlled conditions before being put to use.Courtship Playbook 1Knowledge: OtherEssential tips and tricks for confessing your feelings!

If even one of them is still alive, it could threaten the entire land of Baek-Ah. Don't let your guard down.Demonic Beasts Suppression War 2Knowledge: OtherOn the tenth day, Elder Naun gathered us all and spoke. "Do not lose your way. As long as the people of this land can find peace, even if we're put at risk, that is enough. Descendants of dragons, take the lead and fight."Demonic Beasts Suppression War 3Knowledge: OtherOn the final day. The Divine Maiden finally managed to seal that demonic crayfish deep under the Toxic Mire, but my heart was still uneasy. If the earth shook, it could always rise again. So, expecting us to live in the Toxic Mire is no different than asking us to build homes atop our own graves!Elias's Tale of Survival 1Knowledge: OtherI'm glad that I can communicate with the beastkin here. Anyway, I wonder if the rest of the crew is safe...?Elias's Tale of Survival 2Knowledge: OtherToday, I tried a dish made by steaming rice soaked in water. I find myself slowly adjusting to life here.

I hope to one day cross the Grand Ocean and see you again.Elven Records 1Knowledge: OtherArcana Forest is like a natural fortress. Deep in its heart is Sylvarium, a settlement of elves. If you ever become friends with an elf from Sylvarium, don't react with surprise upon hearing their age, as they enjoy an extended period of youth!Elven Records 2Knowledge: OtherAfter observing the elves for days, I noticed that there are very few males. What differentiates them from humans to cause this? The more I study them, the more apparent it becomes that aside from the marginal similarity in appearance, they are mysterious beings fundamentally different from us.Elven Records 3Knowledge: OtherHave you ever made a financial transaction with an elf? These innocent people have no way of discerning greedy merchants. Yesterday, an elf sage proudly told me they snagged a great deal on a rare item. Further talk revealed that the item was an outdated accessory, and the deal cost them over triple its market value.Forgotten God's Altar - AeonKnowledge: OtherThe ancient altar in Port Vellum North marks the holy site of the fallen order known as the Feline Order. It was discovered when the remnants of the long-lost shortcut connecting Natura Monastery of Ventus Forest to Port Vellum were discovered. According to the Feline Order's scriptures, the altar was built 3,000 years ago and infused with the Creator's power to heal a breach where the dimensional barrier had grown thin and wounded. Weathered by time, the altar's stones are now cracked, and the fractures emit a mysterious energy. This isn't mere natural weathering, but clearly the trace of a seal. It is believed the order's followers gathered here, invoking the Creator's power to mend the rift and preserve the world. The traces they left may still protect Belana today.Gaba Archipelago Settlement Log 1Knowledge: OtherIt's been a full year since we escaped Nirvan and settled here in the Gaba Archipelago, yet we haven't once made contact with the native human inhabitants of this planet. There wasn't a single trace of human habitation in the Gaba Archipelago, and with violent storms raging across the seas surrounding the islands, there was no way to venture beyond them or contact the outside world. Still, the constant stream of trash and other objects washing ashore from beyond the islands makes it clear that civilization exists somewhere beyond those seas. One day, once we've rebuilt our foundations and are ready to brave the storms, we'll be able to meet the inhabitants of this planet.Gaba Archipelago Settlement Log 2Knowledge: OtherThe Gaba Archipelago had no Codelium, our primary energy source, and even ordinary resources were woefully scarce. To create an environment suitable for habitation, we had no choice but to make use of the supplies we had brought aboard the Ark, even dismantling the Ark's hull itself for materials. As we built our new settlement, Ortus, whose members had replaced parts of their bodies with machines, worked tirelessly day and night. Ordinary residents, too, stepped up to lay the foundations for our new life. As a result, we established not only the infrastructure needed for our daily lives, but also research facilities for pursuing new discoveries and machinery manufacturing facilities, giving us the means to build a future for ourselves. In exchange, however, the Ark that had saved our lives vanished without a trace, with only the section that had served as Code's control room left intact.Gaba Archipelago Settlement Log 3Knowledge: OtherAs our new home has taken shape and everyone has begun to settle into a more stable life, we have been able to get by on the food and resources we brought from Nirvan. However, it is clear those supplies won't last forever. We must find a way to brave the storms and venture to the outside world before our stockpiles ran dry. Ortus and KrypTiiK established a research facility dedicated to this cause. And yet... something feels off. With our level of technology, we should be more than capable of building a transport that can withstand a storm of such magnitude. It seems both Ortus and KrypTiiK have been dragging their feet, making little progress while the days slip by. I'm sure there must be a reason for it... but I'm worried they might be hiding something from us.Goblin MenuKnowledge: OtherWe are pleased to offer two choices of entrée for today's meal. 1. Vegetable Curry 2. Mushroom Curry Please select only one entrée per goblin. (If you have a problem, take it up with the chef!)Hyper PortalKnowledge: OtherWith hopes that Nirvan would be restored in the distant future, the Hyper Portal was designed to safely return all survivors back to Nirvan through dimensional travel. Its official name is the "Fixed Interdimensional Synchrotron," and it operates on the principle of connecting passages between dimensions based on the preset coordinates for the entrance and exit. When the portal is activated, a massive energy barrier is generated. It is designed to operate only if equipped with a safety mechanism that discharges excess energy caused by system overload.Journal of a Knight of the 9th Brigade 1Knowledge: OtherFebruary 24, 1019 Our 9th Brigade has a new commander: Esther. I knew it was time. As the finest swordmaster in the kingdom, she is the perfect choice to lead the "Rag-Tag 9th Brigade," the strongest combat unit in the land. Knights from other brigades might call it a demotion, but I know the truth! They hate us because they ain't us.Journal of a Knight of the 9th Brigade 2Knowledge: OtherApril 2, 1019 It's been over a month since Commander Esther took over. At first, some punks looked down on her and shrugged off her authority. Still, she was unfazed and treated everyone fairly. Her integrity eventually won them over, and now everybody respects her. Of course, a demonstration of her swordsmanship also helped.Journal of a Knight of the 9th Brigade 3Knowledge: OtherDecember 1, 1019 Following a fierce snowstorm, a new recruit joined the 9th Brigade. Her name is Reina, and she's, get this, a commoner. Most Solar Knights come from noble families, so this humble rookie from a rural town stands out. Maybe that's why she looks somewhat... simple. I just hope she's not bullied.Journal of a Knight of the 9th Brigade 4Knowledge: OtherMarch 15, 1020 We got another new recruit. Her name's Flare, and apparently I should know who her family is. Top of her class at the Magic Academy, too. Naturally, the hazing started immediately. They want to break her spirit so she falls in line. Hm? What's that? A fireball! She fired it?! The bullies' butts are burning. Bold move... but they had it coming.Journal of a Knight of the 9th Brigade 5Knowledge: OtherA day I'd like to forget about in February, 1022 I'll call it what it is: a betrayal. Three units were deployed together, and we took the lead. But nobody supported us from behind. We were completely isolated and abandoned but fought with everything we had in that hell hole. Refusing to give up, Commander Esther fought to open a path for our escape. She held off the pursuers behind us... and disappeared.Journal of a Knight of the 9th Brigade 6Knowledge: OtherMay 21, 1022 Commander Esther stepped down and left the brigade today. She'd returned last month, fully recovered from her injuries. I heard she spent her recovery at some inn in Vestigia. Command laid the whole operation's failure on her. The rest of the 9th Brigade put up a fuss, but command wouldn't hear it. The commander accepted all responsibility and resigned. Was it my imagination, or was she... smiling? - From the Journal of Shun, Knight of the 9th BrigadeLegends of Dragons Among the CloudsKnowledge: OtherIn Mooncloud Valley, there is a waterfall rumored to have once been climbed by a giant carp. It is said that the carp kept on climbing into the clouds and became a dragon, and so the waterfall was named Dragoncloud Falls. It is said that there is another entrance to Moonshadow Cave behind Dragoncloud Falls, but one must solve its mystery to even find a hint of its location. However, only a handful of people have actually seen this waterfall... Some even consider it a crafty tale spread by the foxes who once called the valley home.Memoirs of the Knights of Parliament 1Knowledge: OtherAfter receiving a letter from an old friend, I arrived at Rainwood at last and paid my respects at her grave. She had once been my closest colleague and a candidate for the Twelve Apostles. I can't believe she's gone. I have no idea how she met her untimely death, but I suspect Parliament's secret "Essential Prohibition" was involved. If only the "Child of Prophecy" hadn't been born to them... the lives of her and her husband may have been different.Memoirs of the Knights of Parliament 2Knowledge: OtherKnowing the order's fear all too well, I never asked the child's name. Even so, I caught a fleeting glimpse of it, embroidered on her faded clothes. The order is probably still looking for this Child of Prophecy. And my time here, away from the gaze of other brethren of the order, is running thin. Fortunately, I was able to watch from afar today, here in Hananis, as the child wielded the power of Fire, just like her mother. There was a young man at her side, radiating a strange power. Somehow, seeing him there calmed my heart. - Mathias, Guardian Knight of ParliamentMessy LetterKnowledge: OtherI can't seem to find my way out of this place. I was never good with directions. What do I do...? I just wanted to visit Homecoming Garden!Miho's PetitionKnowledge: OtherMiho, Divine Maiden of the Council of Empyrean Fangs, made this announcement to all clan and family leaders: Henceforth, any soul who dares to speak of the Tragedy by Poison shall face a fate most dire. Let every heart present here vow steadfastly to uphold this decree.Nirvan Martial Arts - Accel Blitz 1Knowledge: OtherA martial art unique to Nirvan. Accel Blitz is a martial art developed in Nirvan, where enhanced robotic prosthetics have become increasingly common. It was developed with the single goal of transcending the limits of human potential using nothing but the pure human body and the strength of the human spirit. The discipline is founded on the steadfast belief that true strength can only be achieved through a body tempered by grueling training and sweat, without relying on mechanical enhancements. In a world increasingly consumed by machines and the Void, this philosophy represents a uniquely human indomitable will.Nirvan Martial Arts - Accel Blitz 2Knowledge: OtherAs its name suggests, the fundamental principles of this martial art are "acceleration" and the "relentless assault" that follows. The technique relies on explosively contracting and relaxing the muscles throughout the entire body to generate extreme speed in an instant, then channeling that full momentum into a destructive force.Nirvan Martial Arts - Accel Blitz 3Knowledge: OtherThe Blitz Youth Championship is Nirvan's most prestigious youth martial arts tournament, officially held to determine the world's best student fighter. However, unlike traditional martial arts tournaments that test the limits of natural physical ability, the Blitz Youth Championship operates under a revolutionary set of no-holds-barred combat rules. This tournament permits not only mechanical prosthetics but also physical enhancement through drugs and medical procedures. Behind these seemingly liberal rules, however, lies the far more calculated purpose of KrypTiiK, the tournament's secret sponsor and a powerful megacorporation. KrypTiiK manipulates spirited young fighters into willingly undergoing dangerous forms of physical enhancement in pursuit of victory. As these enhanced fighters clash on the tournament stage, KrypTiiK secretly harvests the extreme real-combat data generated by these battles, as well as invaluable information on the capabilities and limitations of cybernetic bodies to further its own technological ambitions.Old Song LyricsKnowledge: OtherOh, have you heard? My heart is a bird that roosts in a barren wasteland across the sea. I long to fly back to that nest... And sing beneath blue skies... And whisper promises to my beloved... Before sudden disaster set me a-flight! Oh, don't forget. Home is a barren wasteland across the sea. Oh, how I miss its warmth!Parliament Code - Chapter 1Knowledge: OtherBrothers and sisters, open your eyes.

And so shall we cleanse all stain from the order's path, unflinching and unwavering.Parliament Code - Chapter 4Knowledge: OtherFollowers of Terraris, the sacred order of earth and foundation, only yours shall be the power to withstand dread and fear. O Goddess of Earth, Terra, let faith take root in the faithful and grant them the strength to overcome the terrors of sin. And so shall we bury the unjust who stand against the order and let them suffocate to death without hesitation.Parliament Code - Chapter 5Knowledge: OtherFollowers of Aurelia, the sacred order of breath and air, yours is the power to scatter the energy of corruption and impurity. O Goddess of Wind, Aura, blow away all evil from within us and purify the stench of sickness. And so shall we cast out the phantoms of death blocking the order's path with never-ending wind.Parliament Code - Chapter 6Knowledge: OtherBehold, we are members of this sacred parliament following only the rules of the four, standing before our brothers and sisters. From this moment onward, and unto eternity, we are entrusted with the divine right to judge those who reject doctrine and rebel against the order. Before all others, we shall be revered, and with the blades of the Knights of Parliament, we shall bring the will of the goddesses to every corner of the world.Regretful Exploration RecordsKnowledge: OtherI thought I could become rich with even just one Night Pearl... Is it really impossible to take anything from Moonglow Mountain? No matter how hard I try, I just can't find a way off this mountain. Maybe I should leave the Night Pearl behind...Secrets Hidden in Peach Blossoms - Part 1Knowledge: OtherDohwa Garden has a secret rank of gisaeng. The fourth-rate gisaeng. Their position exists beyond the formal ranks of first through third rate. They are lurking everywhere, sometimes serving food, hiding in the shadows, or sweeping the floor, all while maintaining a watchful eye.Secrets Hidden in Peach Blossoms - Part 2Knowledge: OtherThey can get any information they want. If you have a secret you'd like to keep, you'd better not visit Wolha. Of course, they have eyes and ears outside of Wolha, too, in Namryung or anywhere else across Baek-Ah. No secret is safe forever beneath the peach blossoms.Serpent Dragon Guild Master's Command 1Knowledge: OtherReward those who follow you. Be generous. Cast out those that oppose you. Show them no mercy.Serpent Dragon Guild Master's Command 2Knowledge: OtherWealth and glory will be granted only to those who follow us. When the new Baek-Ah rises, you will all bask in the palace's glory until the end of time.Serpent Dragon Guild Master's Command 3Knowledge: OtherThis is not merely to reclaim what my father lost, but to ensure that you all can partake in what is rightfully yours.Someone's Journal - Part 1Knowledge: OtherI learned how to write. I was always able to speak, but I can now read and write. It's really amazing that I can write like this. Talking a lot makes my throat hurt. I wish I could just write down the things I say often and carry them around. When I was learning how to write, I wondered why I needed to... but I'm glad I listened to Jiwon. I'm going to keep listening to her.Someone's Journal - Part 2Knowledge: OtherWhen I listen to Jiwon play... my heart feels peaceful. I tried to think of another word than peaceful, but I can't think of anything. I guess it's because I only just learned how to read and write. If it wasn't for Jiwon, what would my life be like right now? Would I even be alive? I only have memories of being hungry before coming to Dohwa Garden. Back then, I thought that was natural. But Jiwon saved me. I must repay that kindness.The Boundaries of Heaven 1Knowledge: OtherThe Immortal Plane, the Heavens, the Realm of Life and Death, the Netherworld, and the Underworld, these five boundaries shape all that exists.The Boundaries of Heaven 2Knowledge: OtherThe Immortal Plane is a realm free of ill intent, making it the perfect haven for the Supreme Divine to make their abodes.The Boundaries of Heaven 3Knowledge: OtherThus, the demons and spectral beasts of the Underworld were defeated, preventing their wicked aura from entering humans.The Divine Maiden's Inheritance- Part 1Knowledge: OtherThe Kumiho Divine Maiden bears a single child via supernatural reproduction. She conceives new life by concentrating her natural essence and passes on the mantle of the Divine Maiden to her.The Divine Maiden's Inheritance- Part 2Knowledge: OtherOnce the Kumiho Divine Maiden has produced an heir, she becomes enlightened and ascends to the Immortal Plane after a period of one hundred years. She likely spends that century training the next Divine Maiden and passing on any necessary knowledge to her. Since a lowly creature of the secular world cannot dare glimpse into the business of the Immortal Plane, this is mere speculation.The Dokkaebi War - End 1Knowledge: OtherThe dokkaebi forces leading the assault on Naksan had suddenly vanished. It was the result of a rare second intervention by the Council of Empyrean Fangs, a group that normally refrains from getting involved in worldly matters. The details remain unknown, but many believe the Empyrean Fangs, deciding they could no longer let the dokkaebi act against the terms of their past accord, delivered punishment.The Dokkaebi War - End 2Knowledge: OtherIt seems the Council of Empyrean Fangs once sought to accept dokkaebi as a part of Baek-Ah, as they were longtime inhabitants of the land. However, the cruelty of dokkaebi far exceeded their expectations. Admitting their misjudgment, the Empyrean Fangs acted swiftly. They sealed away Duoxini and the dokkaebi who'd committed crimes, ensuring they could never again set foot on Baek-Ah soil.The Dokkaebi War - End 3Knowledge: OtherSurah regained peace after sealing away Duoxini and the dokkaebi, but the residents who'd fled Surah did not return. What remains now are a handful of residents who refuse to give up their homeland, the residual energy of wandering dokkaebi, and a landscape of youkai-filled forests and sprawling silver grass fields.The Dokkaebi War - Events 1Knowledge: OtherThe dokkaebi who had disappeared were gathered in Surah, the northern province of Baek-Ah, plotting a war. Under the leadership of Duoxini, they plundered and destroyed small villages in Surah and enslaved humans who had not managed to escape.The Dokkaebi War - Events 2Knowledge: OtherWhile villages across Surah were destroyed, Beomgol remained safe. Many believe this was due to a request made by a woman Duoxini took as a consort. Of course, that didn't spare the villagers from being enslaved, but at least their homes were safe.The Dokkaebi War - Events 3Knowledge: OtherThe Dokkaebi War raged on, eventually targeting Naksan, the heart of Surah. Fortunately, the brave government soldiers of Baek-Ah united against the dokkaebi and managed to defend Naksan. All the residents of Surah fled to Naksan for safety, with most eventually evacuating further to Namryung or Muwon's islands.The Dokkaebi War - Events 4Knowledge: OtherThe battle in Naksan lasted for about two years. Countless lives were lost, and the financial toll was immense. This battle became one of the main reasons why Baek-Ah, including Surah, entered a period of hardship and poverty in the years that followed.The Dokkaebi War - Events 5Knowledge: OtherOne day, Duoxini gathered his power and raised a blood-red moon into the sky. From it poured a chilling wave of energy. It transformed dokkaebi into even more savage beasts and drove youkai into uncontrollable madness. Even when the sun rose, the sky remained dark under the moon's power. It was a living hell.The Dokkaebi War - Events 6Knowledge: OtherEventually, even Naksan stood on the brink of collapse, and the people of Baek-Ah began preparing to evacuate to elsewhere. Yet amidst the growing despair, some soldiers and civilians refused to yield, vowing to fight to the bitter end. Had a final battle taken place, the damage to Baek-Ah likely would have been irreversible. Fortunately, that last, desperate clash in Naksan never came to pass.The Dokkaebi War - Onset 1Knowledge: OtherDokkaebi were creatures as strong as warriors and as cruel as venomous snakes. When humans and beastkin began settling in Baek-Ah, the dokkaebi took offense and launched indiscriminate attacks. After Duoxini rose as the king of dokkaebi, the conflict worsened. Merely looking at dokkaebi the wrong way would trigger them to plunder everything, so the people of Baek-Ah couldn't even step outside their village alone.The Dokkaebi War - Onset 2Knowledge: OtherThe Council of Empyrean Fangs, guardians of Baek-Ah, deemed the dokkaebi's acts excessive and intervened. Though the details of their days-long meeting remains unknown, the troublemaking dokkaebi vanished from Baek-Ah, bringing temporary peace. Yet, this was no true end to danger, but the dawn of a greater crisis.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 1Knowledge: OtherThe first meeting between the woman and the dokkaebi was anything but pleasant. Dokkaebi, by their nature, are greedy and arrogant. Once they have their eyes set on something, they must have it, and the woman was no exception. After being captured, she was transported like cargo on a wagon, and she was battered and shaken by the rough journey.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 2Knowledge: OtherInjured and dragged from her home, the woman refused to speak a word for three days. The dokkaebi, who feared neither beast nor blade, found himself at a loss. Desperate to win her over, he brought her gift after gift Yet no treasure, no gold or jewels, could move her heart. It was only when he offered a single beautiful flower that he had picked himself that she finally broke into laughter.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 3Knowledge: OtherDokkaebi may be wicked and greedy by nature, but they treasure what they consider their own. And to this dokkaebi, the woman was no exception. The woman began to believe that even dokkaebi could possess a gentle heart, and to her, that single flower was proof.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 4Knowledge: OtherThe woman believed that, if she embraced the dokkaebi and guided him with kindness, he could be changed. So, she accepted his proposal. In return, the dokkaebi left her hometown untouched.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 5Knowledge: OtherA year passed, and the two had a beautiful child together. The child bore the father's crimson hands, but inherited the mother's delicate and lovely features. Overjoyed to have her first child, the woman was determined to raise her well.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 6Knowledge: OtherWhen the dokkaebi lost the war and were sealed away, the woman began thinking. No matter how young, a child born of dokkaebi would never be forgiven. Yet, what crime could a newborn possibly have committed?The Dokkaebi's Lover - 7Knowledge: OtherThe woman, with an aching heart, set her child adrift in the river. Then, believing she could never be forgiven by humans after living so comfortably among dokkaebi, she joined the other dokkaebi within the Dokkaebi Shrine and fell into a long slumber.The Dokkaebi's Lover - 8Knowledge: OtherThe woman wept up until the moment she was sealed away in a slumber. She had believed in the kindness of dokkaebi, and had hoped of a world where dokkaebi and humans could live in harmony. But in the end, that harmony wasn't realized. If she had tried a little harder, could such a world have come to be? Could that innocent child have been raised by her loving parents? It was all a futile dream now, remaining only as a sad tale for storytellers.The Dokkaebi's Lover - AfterwordKnowledge: OtherThis story is based on true events and was written at the request of Duoxini's wife during the Dokkaebi War. She hopes for at least one soul to understand her. And finally, she wishes for her child, Gabi, if still alive, to be safe.The Fall of Nirvan and Escape 1Knowledge: OtherThe people of Nirvan considered Void Corruption, which had appeared in their world overnight, a natural disaster. The ominous, ashen energy began to devour everything in their world, but they had no effective countermeasures. As a result, they ended up making the worst possible decision: to flee and wait for the corruption to subside on its own. Perhaps they didn't realize the danger. After all, the idea that the people of Nirvan, who had sought to fully document their world and then challenge the very laws of the universe, could be destroyed by a mere natural phenomenon was far too absurd. However, the Void corruption was not merely a natural disaster, and a solution would not simply emerge with time.The Fall of Nirvan and Escape 2Knowledge: OtherWhen Code, hailed as the greatest genius in the history of Nirvan, concluded that there was no way to stop the Void's corruption, the people of Nirvan plunged into collective despair. And why wouldn't they? Code had led humanity forward, gathering the world's greatest scientific and technological achievements under a company called KrypTiiK. And now, she had personally declared that the world was ending. Yet even in the face of such despair, Code refused to give up. Nirvan couldn't be saved, but she devised plan to evacuate the people of Nirvan aboard a spaceship. All of humanity took part in the construction of the Ark, with everyone contributing however they could. At the same time, Code created an android-housed AI designed to oversee the Ark's operation and navigation.The Fall of Nirvan and Escape 3Knowledge: OtherEven as humanity stood on the brink of extinction, work on Code's Ark brought people closer together than ever before. People from every corner of the world came together and poured all their efforts into a common cause, and thanks to their dedication, the Ark was completed far sooner than expected. However, the Ark had a limited capacity, and there wasn't room for everyone. So those determined to share the fate of their home planet, Nirvan, and those who had resolved to remain behind and wait until a solution to the corruption was discovered chose not to board the Ark, giving up their seats to others.The Fall of Nirvan and Escape 4Knowledge: OtherAfter the Ark set out into space, we drifted through a vast emptiness for a long time. The journey itself went smoothly thanks to Rin, the AI responsible for managing and controlling the Ark, which guided us safely along the way. However, a prolonged voyage with no destination in sight gradually left people feeling anxious and exhausted. Then, the end of our long journey through space came without warning. On Rin's orders, we all entered impact-resistant pods and closed our eyes. When we opened them again, we were flying beneath the blue skies of a planet called Belana.The Founding of Solismenamus - The 9th Brigade 1Knowledge: OtherAt the end of the continental war, as Richard Astravel laid the foundation of the kingdom of Solismenamus, he was troubled by one particular matter: What to do with Pavel, one of the heroes who had fought beside him. While Pavel and his unit were a force of unmatched power, they were also impulsive and hard to control. In wartime, they were an invaluable asset, but in peace, they were a liability.The Founding of Solismenamus - The 9th Brigade 2Knowledge: OtherIn Solar Year 5, King Richard announced the establishment of the 9th Brigade, naming Pavel its commander. When Pavel scoffed at the number and asked why it was picked, King Richard replied that it was because it represented the strongest individual, as nine was the greatest single digit. The answer pleased Pavel, and King Richard marveled at his own cleverness. That offhand remark would go on to define the position of the brigade for over a thousand years.The Founding of Solismenamus - The 9th Brigade 3Knowledge: OtherStill, just as King Richard had anticipated, Pavel and his men had a hard time adjusting to the time of peace. While duties shifted to maintaining order and patrols, the 9th Brigade still valued combat the most. They soon started refusing routine missions like reconnaissance. Over time, they came to be known as the "Rag-Tag Knights."The Founding of Solismenamus - The 9th Brigade 4Knowledge: OtherEventually, the dishonorable nickname reached the ears of Pavel. He became disillusioned with life in the kingdom. So he asked to step down and left the kingdom with a handful of his men. This was during the eighth year of King Richard's reign.The Founding of Solismenamus - The 9th Brigade 5Knowledge: OtherSaddened, King Richard appointed a new commander to the 9th Brigade. This decision surprised many who had expected the king to disband the unit following Pavel's departure. Appointing a new leader and maintaining the 9th Brigade was King Richard's way of honoring the friendship he'd once shared with Pavel. And so, the 9th Brigade lived on as part of the Solar Knights. To this day, they're still called the "Rag-Tag Knights," but they also remain an unstoppable force in combat. - Excerpt from The Founding of Solismenamus by Historian TakitosThe Tale of Sangun and the Divine Maiden - Part 1Knowledge: OtherThe Kumiho Divine Maiden kept her heart well guarded. Time had worn her feelings smooth, settling them into serene tranquility. However, there was one who could still cause ripples in her still heart: the king of Mount Tai.The Tale of Sangun and the Divine Maiden - Part 2Knowledge: OtherNo soul in the secular world knows the true name of the king of Mount Tai. After all, the king has wholly accepted the name Sangun, offered to him by his followers. The only person he allowed to use his true name was the Kumiho Divine Maiden.The York Choco RevelationKnowledge: OtherRevelations from the primordial deity, Bigcat, recorded by Saint York Choco of the Feline Order. It prophesizes of an apocalypse, the judgment of Bigcat, and the destined return of all beings to their "original place." It also affirms an unwavering resolve that even if faith wanes, the faithful must be led to the very end, guided along the true path. For the few remaining followers of the Feline Order today, it serves as a guidebook of their beliefs. Filled with layered metaphors and cryptic symbols, the text invites diverse interpretations even among members of the same order. Yet despite these differences, followers often quote its passages, striving to understand its teachings. The York Choco Revelation remains a guiding beacon for this forgotten order.Torn Letter 1Knowledge: OtherI've spent my life ignoring my feelings, carrying the burden of justice and destiny.

Don't miss out!Void Implant Research 1Knowledge: OtherVoid Implants are mechanical prosthetics and artificial organs developed by KrypTiiK in response to the catastrophe known as the Void Corruption, which befell Nirvan. The earliest mechanical prosthetics were developed purely for medical purposes, intended to restore lost bodily functions and extend human life. But as the corruption's effects grew increasingly severe, so too did the range of organs and bodily functions that could be replaced and enhanced by implants.Void Implant Research 2Knowledge: OtherAs implants' neural interface technology underwent rapid advances, their applications expanded far beyond physical enhancement. Today, they've come to be utilized more extensively as combat equipment. In particular, Ortus, KrypTiiK's special forces unit, has actively adopted implant technology, dramatically increasing its combat capabilities. Although some side effects remain, such as loss of sensation at the points where implants connect to the body, the technology has now advanced to the point where most of the human body's organs, with the exception of the brain, can be replaced.Wind LotusKnowledge: OtherA poem composed by Sangun the day Miho, Mina and Narae's mother, passed away in his arms, entrusting Fate's Embrace to him.

Its scattered petals ride the wind.Baek-Ah Flora CompendiumKnowledge: FindingsA codex full of information about Baek-Ah's medicinal herbs, flowers, and trees. The physician Yun Bidam gathered the information by personally experimenting with various plants she found growing in the mountains and fields of Baek-Ah, accidentally poisoning herself several times in the process.Blossom Shower PavilionKnowledge: FindingsA stone sculpture standing at the center of Dohwa Garden's courtyard. It's become quite famous for greeting all who pass through the garden's main gate. On days when flower petals scatter in the wind, raindrops gather upon it to form a delicate pool of blossoms and rain. Hence it is called Blossom Shower Pavilion.Brass Chamber PotKnowledge: FindingsIn villages in Baek-Ah without sewer systems, chamber pots are an essential part of every household. Fortunately, this one is empty.Bronze BrazierKnowledge: FindingsA still-warm brazier where charcoal was recently burned. In poorer villages, people huddle around a single brazier like this to get through the winter.CA 35 Cherry BourbonKnowledge: FindingsKnown for its smooth finish and sweet flavor. The first sip delivers a strong sweet cherry taste, soon followed by subtle notes of vanilla and caramel. It's commonly called the "Devil's Drink" among Nirvanians and can be enjoyed over ice or used as an ingredient in cocktails.Cat Paw Cart DecorationKnowledge: FindingsThere are a lot of carts around Breezeville because of the village's lumber industry, but one cart in particular stands out because of its cute cat paw ornament. This cart belongs to a heavy built man with a very rugged face. He always rubs the decoration for good luck, and, with his rocky face beaming from ear-to-ear, tells everyone within earshot that it was made by his lovely daughter.Cat-shaped StatueKnowledge: FindingsFunny-looking cat statues present all throughout the world. Sometimes, these statues will have fish, foodstuffs, and incense left at their feet as a kind of offering. Are there really people worshipping these cat statues out there? I guess that's something we'll have to see to believe...Cave Ice CrystalKnowledge: FindingsFinding ice crystals outside of Vmerznut, in the northern part of Centralia, is a rare occurrence. They occasionally form in cool, breezy caves and are quite valuable because their melting point is higher than room temperature.Clear Water Hot SpringsKnowledge: FindingsAn outdoor hot springs fed by the clear waters of Azure Orchard. Bubbling up from deep beneath the mountains, its waters are exceptionally pure, without a single trace of impurity. Lil' Hauntstacks often enter Azure Orchard via Sangun's scroll, and instead of chasing them back out, Sangun allows them to rest in the Clear Water Hot Springs. After soaking in the Clear Water Hot Springs and getting a taste of the mountains' essence, Lil' Hauntstacks are sometimes able to release the resentment binding them to the mortal world and move on. If you want to befriend these gentle Lil' Hauntstacks, just let them continue to enjoy their soaks undisturbed... and if you lose sight of any of them, rest assured they've moved on to a better place.Cocorn SkewerKnowledge: FindingsCocorn on a stick, prepared by Leeho to roast over an open flame.

Yet, these Brown Cappies fought violently against the Fire Slime in a field full of flameweed. This is the result of that battle.Crispy RockymanderKnowledge: FindingsMost monsters that are struck with Fire magic become "burned," but Rockymanders are unique in that they become "roasted." Roasted Rockymander is a dish known for its mouth-watering smell, and the fact that it's very difficult to bring yourself to eat something this cute.Crystal Cradling EnergyKnowledge: FindingsA crystal found in the forest where dokkaebi once roamed freely. It holds powerful dokkaebi energy. Touching it feels like electricity surging through the skin.Destroyed GateKnowledge: FindingsPort Vellum erected iron gates to defend against frequent outside invasions, and they were once considered as impenetrable as the infamous gates of Manafall, the capital of Solismenamus. However, a joint assault by the Void Knights and orcs brought Port Vellum to the brink of collapse, and its steadfast gates were breached. In response, Count Lowell, Lord of Varhine, is urgently seeking a skilled repairman to restore the gates.Dewy LeavesKnowledge: FindingsFoliage in Arcana Forest glistening with morning dew. The dew pooling on the leaves carries the crisp scent of the woods, making the air feel even fresher and cleaner.Dokkaebi BatKnowledge: FindingsA Dokkaebi Bat isn't just a ordinary wooden club, it's a tool infused with youkai energy accumulated over many years. The dokkaebi who's lost this bat is probably still wandering the forest, searching for it.Dokkaebi Shrine DoorsKnowledge: FindingsThe doors leading to the Dokkaebi Shrine, where the Council of Empyrean Fangs sealed away the extracted souls of the dokkaebi war criminals. They shouldn't be able to be opened without the approval of the council, but Duoxini opened them with sheer force.Elf Queen's StatueKnowledge: FindingsA life-sized statue of the elven queen standing in the central plaza of Sylvarium. The statue is replaced whenever a new queen takes the throne. Apparently, Ceresbellona made countless attempts to avoid having her statue built when she became queen but ultimately failed.Empty Kkaebi NestKnowledge: FindingsAn empty nest. If no new Kkaebi take up the nest, the lingering energy will fade, and it'll return to being a normal rock.Fate's EmbraceKnowledge: FindingsThe divine weapon of Miho, the previous Kumiho Divine Maiden and Mina and Narae's mother. Its name refers to following the flow of fate. It is currently believed to be in Sangun's possession.Forest Goblin FlagKnowledge: FindingsA flag set down by forest goblins to mark their territory. It has a mildewy odor to it, which hints that the flag's cloth might have once been part of an old, unwashed tent. Be careful not to knock it over, unless you want a horde of goblins to charge at you.Fox StrawberryKnowledge: FindingsA strawberry that resembles the shape of human liver. It is called a "fox strawberry" because Kumiho have a fondness for them.Gargoyle Warning SignKnowledge: FindingsA sign alerting travelers to the presence of gargoyles. Goblins that were driven out of their homes by the gargoyles placed this sign to minimize further harm.Giant Luminous FlowercapKnowledge: FindingsMushrooms that grow in places untouched by sunlight. Because their unique properties allow them to glow in the dark, they're handy for navigating dark caves without a light source. Since Luminous Flowercaps lose their light when harvested, it's best to leave them alone and admire them from afar.Giant PortraitKnowledge: FindingsA painting found in Natura Monastery. The texture of the canvas and art style suggest it's very, very old, so it was probably made by someone that used to worship at the monastery. Did the ancients really worship a cat as their god? That sounds an awful lot like that one group that's around today...Goblin's Curry PotKnowledge: FindingsA pot filled with simmering curry. The Plains Goblins keep it full of curry at all times.

One must pass through this hanging scroll to get to Sangun's home, Azure Orchard. It was sealed by Sangun's power, which has been undone by Manwol's antler.High-Density FiberboardKnowledge: FindingsA high-tech fiber panel specially synthesized to withstand extreme environments. Densely woven into a honeycomb structure, it boasts excellent shock absorption capabilities. It is lighter than conventional metal yet offers far superior protection, while also providing exceptional noise and heat insulation. Designed to remain flexible without restricting the wearer's movements, it's primarily used in combat uniforms and armor. It is considered one of the key factors that enabled Nirvanians to withstand the Void's corruption for some time.Hydro MetalKnowledge: FindingsA special metal alloy cast in a molten state. It is processed by subjecting the alloy to extreme heat and pressure until it melts to a liquid consistency, then pouring it into the desired mold and allowing it to harden. Its molecular structure is far denser and more uniform than that of conventional metals, giving it greater strength than steel while remaining remarkably lightweight. Once hardened, it can withstand any impact without fracturing and offers exceptional resistance to heat and corrosion. It is the primary material in advanced weapons and powered armor, but the sophisticated technology required to produce it keeps its availability limited.Idol with Evil AuraKnowledge: FindingsThe idols erected in Port Vellum were created by those that worship the Void. A disturbing energy ripples through the air around it. These idols are found on ominous altars located throughout the area, and those who wander near the altars bow down to them in reverence. It's unknown why these idols, made of stones and leaves, radiate such corrupting energy. It is only speculated that it's because they embody the deep evil intent of those who created the altars.Jar of Blessed WaterKnowledge: FindingsA jar with blessed water gathered by Sangun, brimming with the energy of Mother Nature. Even for Sangun, with the powers of Mount Tai, it takes a long time and effort to create potent blessed water.

Now retired, it's just a lonely scarecrow watching the setting sun in silence.Manwol's AntlerKnowledge: FindingsAn antler, offered willingly by Manwol, the mystical guardian of Moonglow Mountain. At a glance, it may look like an ordinary stag antler, but up close, it shimmers from a soft light within.

Rabbit beastkin believe the Moon Rabbit is their ancestor, and every year, they visit the Temple of Eternal Life to offer tribute to their ancestral spirits.Mystic MirrorKnowledge: FindingsA mirror made by the followers of an ancient religion that worshipped the Creator. It allows you to move to the location where the slumbering Warden of Nature lies. Only those who possess the key capable of undoing Custos's seal may use the mirror to enter.Mystical Tiger StatueKnowledge: FindingsOne of the two stone statues guarding either side of Sangun's altar. It was carved by the villagers of Wolha based on their hopes that the White Tiger Divine Beast Sangun's enormous presence would tower like Mount Tai. Though the altar may now be crumbling and forgotten, the flanking tiger statues still stand tall, with their sacred dignity undiminished.Old LongswordKnowledge: FindingsA sword abandoned in a cave. The rust on its blade suggests it was forsaken ages ago. It was most likely left behind by an adventurer who entered the cave in search of treasure.Old Military BadgeKnowledge: FindingsAn old badge inscribed with the name "Lee Yibyung." While it was originally issued to a soldier for official military use, it seems to have fallen into the hands of the beastkin bandits, who used it for cover. This small yet solid badge that used to confirm the identity of a proud soldier has now been now abandoned and serves no one.Orcs' Wolf EnclosureKnowledge: FindingsThe more ruthless orcs have a penchant for "taming" other species of monsters to join them in battle. The tiny cages that the orcs shove these monsters into is a testament to their cruelty.Ortus Enhancement SuitKnowledge: FindingsA premium combat suit crafted with top-tier bulletproof alloy and lightweight composite fibers. It features a built-in hydraulic assist system that not only multiplies the wearer's physical strength but also enhances agility. It's equipped with environment-adaptive filters, ensuring the wearer's survival even in radioactive environments or toxic atmospheres. In addition, it's rigged with a multi-purpose mounting rail on the shoulders and a compact power source on the back, allowing for easy attachment and operation of specialized equipment or weapons.Particle Analysis DeviceKnowledge: FindingsA device that captures and analyzes microscopic particles in the air. It is a lightweight analyzer developed by KrypTiiK after settling in the Gaba Archipelago to help adapt to Belana's environment and ecosystem. It's primarily issued to Ortus scouts tasked with exploring contaminated regions. The analyzer is used by mounting it onto a specially designed mask or helmet, and captured particles are compressed and stored on a nano-scale chip. These chips can be used as research samples, or depending on the type of contaminant, trigger an automatic injection of the appropriate antidote.Port Vellum GateKnowledge: FindingsPort Vellum has long suffered from invasions from outside forces because of its ability transport goods across the ocean. This led to the residents of the town building a gigantic gate to serve as the entrance to their home.Radio Jamming BeaconKnowledge: FindingsA device that automatically emits disruptive frequencies when it detects nearby communication signals, disabling the wireless communication networks around the barrier. As virtually all forms of interference are strictly controlled by KrypTiiK, these devices are typically used covertly in black markets or areas where stealth is necessary.Regenerator - MKnowledge: FindingsA military regenerator used for healing and enhancing bodies. Though originally developed as a medical device for use on patients affected by corruption, under Ada's command, Type M was modified for military use. Now, the device can go beyond simply attaching prosthetic arms and legs. It's even capable of performing extreme void implant procedures, replacing an entire human skeleton and all internal organs, excluding the brain, with machinery. Code's dedication was instrumental in this device achieving its current overwhelming level of performance. Fidelis, the deputy commander of Ortus, stands as a prime example of the regenerator procedure. She was saved from the brink of death by transplanting her brain into a robotic body using the device.Reginula's FeatherKnowledge: FindingsA massive feather that fell from Reginula's wings. Humanity's fascination with the cosmos once made this feather shimmer like the stars, but as people's interest in the universe waned, it lost its glow and became an ordinary feather. Long ago, Reginula would awaken when the planets aligned in a straight line and traveled through space along their path. To those in Belana, this journey was identical to a meteor shower. Now, as city lights grow brighter and the stars of the night sky fade from view, Reginula lies in a deep slumber within her sanctuary, waiting for the day the skies are once again filled with starlight.Reginula's MeteoriteKnowledge: FindingsA meteorite that's fallen from outer space because of Reginula's power. Reginula occasionally drops meteorites from space in order to ingrain the cosmos upon the humans of Belana and boast her strength and power. Normally, if a meteorite of this size dropped from space, it would cause massive damage to the area around it. However, since Reginula's goal wasn't to harm humans, she controlled the speed of the falling meteorite, allowing it to safely land in Belana without causing much damage.Reginula's StarKnowledge: FindingsA star-shaped crystal that's fallen off of Reginula. It is pure energy and the source of Reginula's power. Each of Reginula's stars hold massive power, and simply possessing a star from Reginula will allow you to partially utilize that power. However, it's it said that if you get too captivated by that power, your mind will be consumed by Reginula's stars. You'll begin to believe that you're a star yourself, becoming overwhelmed by the compulsion to return to the cosmos, and lose your life.Sacred StoneKnowledge: FindingsA giant meteorite fragment lodged in Homecoming Garden. The people of the Starfall believe that it symbolizes a great hero returning home after defeating evil in the heavens.Scroll Dragon Ascending into the CloudsKnowledge: FindingsA scroll containing the image of a serpent dragon ascending to the heavens.

At the top is a sculpture of an imugi who's failed to become a dragon.Shellymander ShellKnowledge: FindingsThere are oddballs out there that collect specifically Shellymander shells. The shells vary in value depending on their luster and the presence of scratches or other damage. They're most commonly seen as decorative pieces in homes.Signal Jammer RepeaterKnowledge: FindingsA signal jammer repeater is a device that jams signals from the robots of the Scrap Metal Barrier, disrupting their activity. It recharges itself using solar and wind power and is also equipped with a battery for emergencies. It monitors its surroundings using a high-definition camera during the day and an infrared thermal imaging sensor at night. When it detects a robot with its acoustic vibration sensor, it takes immediate action.SkybreakerKnowledge: FindingsThe divine weapon bestowed upon Mina after she accepts her fate. Its name carries the meaning, "Defying even the heavens."Sorin's Gray ScaleKnowledge: FindingsA scale that fell from Sorin's body. It is said that a serpent dragon's scales normally shine with a brilliant, lustrous radiance. Sorin's, however, have been tainted by the Void, giving them a deep, ink-black hue. The Void Energy that Sorin has embraced is far too potent for an ordinary person to withstand. Even the lingering energy contained within a single scale can corrupt anyone who touches it, so extreme cautious is advised.Spoonmugger's TableKnowledge: FindingsA Spoonmugger's table laden with fresh ingredients. It looks like slime soup is the dish of the day.Star Conch EssenceKnowledge: FindingsShellymander essence, commonly used as a natural remedy. It's frequently mixed with various herbs to make an effective ointment. It can also simply be boiled with water and used as a tonic.Statue of a WomanKnowledge: FindingsA crude female figure, clearly made by someone who is not an expert in their craft. It seems like it's meant to depict a woman.Swellymander ShellKnowledge: FindingsSwellymander shells are even more valuable than Shellymander shells. They're don't seem all that different from Shellymander shells, but collectors are willing to pay a hefty sum for them, so who's complaining?Tasty-Looking MeatKnowledge: FindingsThe White Wolf pack loves to take down large game, and the entire pack will gather together to cook and eat it. This is a very important ritual to the White Wolves, as it is where a hunter is recognized as a warrior and the entire pack congratulates them on their achievement.Traveling Merchant's CartKnowledge: FindingsElves are ideal customers. They buy whatever they find necessary without questioning the price, no matter how high it is. The goods on this cart will be sold out at a premium price before the day is over.Trending Romance NovelKnowledge: FindingsA romance novel that was hidden within the stacks of books in the Queen's Garden. It is part of one of the hottest romance series currently trending in Solismenamus. It would be wise to say nothing to Ceresbellona about finding this.Unbreakable CenserKnowledge: FindingsAn unbreakable censer rumored to be located in the Divine Cat Garden. A ritual tool created by an ancient clan that worshipped a Cat God, it hasn't been seen since the Demonic Beasts Suppression War.Void Flora FragmentKnowledge: FindingsA small fragment left behind where Void Flora used to be. It pulses with intense Void Energy.Well-Worn Offering BowlKnowledge: FindingsThe bowl that was used when the old man offered tribute the Serpent Dragon every full moon. Having been used faithfully for more than a decade, its rim has been worn smooth from years of handling. Crudely carved into the bottom of the bowl are the words: Please, let him be healthy. Sorin sensed the lingering illness and misfortune left behind in this offering bowl and erased it, finding it distasteful. And although she hadn't intended to, her actions ultimately fulfilled the old man's heartfelt wish for his grandson's health.White Wolf's MarkKnowledge: FindingsA symbol left by the White Wolves to mark their territory. White Wolves tend to look down upon those who don't meet their definition of a warrior, so be prepared for consequences if you can't prove yourself to them. You might be able to earn their respect by carrying around the corpse of a large predator.Wisdom-Illuminating SteleKnowledge: FindingsA stone stele standing in a silent corner of Moonglow Mountain. It marks the start of the trial of wisdom and is inscribed with a stern warning from Manwol, meant for those too foolish to proceed.Arcus WaterfallKnowledge: NatureA waterfall hidden at the end of Thesaurum Cave, which has an infamous reputation as the "Adventurers' Grave". Since no one has ever returned alive from Thesaurum Cave, its location remained a secret until now.Azure OrchardKnowledge: NatureThe Azure Orchard, Sangun's home, is a mystical place that exists outside the physical world. Those that step into this liminal space between heaven and earth are greeted by an overwhelmingly massive pond. The boulders that peak above the ocean-like pond look like floating isles in the sky, mysteriously crowned with tufts of moss and tiny blossoms. Within the orchard stands a pine tree so ancient and immense that ten people could not encircle its trunk. It pierces the sky, as though rooting the heavens to the earth, its branches cradling the clouds. The tree's needles shimmer in soft shades of teal, and when the wind stirs them, they whisper a clear but gentle note, as if played by a flute.BeomgolKnowledge: NatureA small rural village that serves as the gateway to Surah and a first stop for travelers. Twenty years ago, during the Dokkaebi War, the village fell under the control of dokkaebi for a time, so the villagers are terrified of dokkaebi. They have a tradition of placing bowls of buckwheat jelly outside their homes, hoping to appease the dokkaebi.BreezevilleKnowledge: NatureA small town located near Hananis. Residents of Breezeville primarily work in logging, refining timber, and delivering their high-quality timber to nearby cities.

All information regarding authorized personnel and equipment inside is highly classified, and the facility is under strict Ortus surveillance.DanogolKnowledge: NatureDanogol is a village in the center of the vast farmlands near Wolha, where farmers have transformed hills and slopes into fertile fields. Thanks to its rich soil and generous sunlight, the village yields bountiful crops of grain and vegetables year after year. As the seasons pass, the fields take on new colors: fields ripple in vibrant greens during spring and summer, then blaze with gold in autumn, offering a breathtaking view.Divine Cat GardenKnowledge: NatureThe garden of the Cat God.

The sun never rises, and a perfect full moon permanently graces the sky, illuminating the whole mountain. Here, plants grow solely by moonlight. Trunks and stems shimmer with a silvery hue, and leaves and petals glow faintly in blues and purples. Some, saturated by moonlight through the ages, emit a radiant glow of their own, forming a luminous garden in the dark. Scattered across the mountain are rare ores called Night Pearls. These stones hold moonlight and glow in the dark like tiny moons. Their beauty draws many to the mountain in search of them, but they are stopped by the divine stag Manwol, the guardian of the mountain.Moonshadow CaveKnowledge: NatureTucked deep within Mooncloud Valley is a natural cave that formed long ago.

Ada exploited this research for military purposes, but Bianca continued to cooperate, driven by the hope that their work could help overcome the Void despite her fears.

When Nirvan was consumed by the Void, all of Fidelis's body except for her brain was severely compromised. However, she survived by transplanting her brain into a robot via a regenerator. Since then, she has continuously modified her robot body (at great risk to her life) and has done her utmost to help Ada achieve Ortus's new goals.Goblin ElderKnowledge: PeopleThe very oldest of the Plains Goblins.

After all, in the process of solving this problem, she might just discover a new clue to solving the problems that lie ahead.Lord WhitehareKnowledge: PeopleThe leader of the rabbit beastkin.

He's known for his laid-back attitude and charismatic confidence. This charisma has made him an expert at getting people to relax in conversation and admit things they might not otherwise have shared. While he was tough and calculating in the past, the loss of his adventurer friends has softened him up and given him a fondness for his fellow guild members, especially the young and promising rookies.

You'd best behave around him, because he does not like repeating himself.MondiKnowledge: PeopleWhile Mondi now belongs to the beastkin bandits in Moonshadow Cave, he was once an ordinary raccoon beastkin living in Starfall Forest.
