So we meet again, Player.

Why are you looking at me as if you don’t know me? We’ve met countless times across many intersecting times.

And now we find ourselves in precisely this time.
You Daevas only perceive the time of Atreia and Balaurea.

However, there is another world at the furthest reaches of time that we know nothing about.

We call this place the otherworld, or the Dokkaebi Realm.

Do you understand why I’m telling you about this otherworld, the existence of which we would usually know nothing about?
A rift into the otherworld opened here recently.

This space-time wasn’t a natural occurrence.

On the contrary, it was created by the intense rage emanating from a powerful figure in the otherworld.

That’s why the Guardian League sent a vast number of troops here to investigate the rift, but no one was able to enter it.

I’m looking for a Daeva to go and see what’s on the other side of the rift.

Player, do you dare to go through the rift?
You should go through the Dokkaebi Rift.

It would be great if you could thoroughly investigate what sort of place is on the other side, and why the rift was created.

Oh yes, before you go, you should look for some trustworthy allies who can accompany you.

Who knows what lies on the other side of the rift.
No one knows what’s waiting for you.

I hope you come back in one piece so that we can meet in this time again.
Oho, a guest from the other world!

How long has it been since I’ve seen a stranger around here?

If it weren’t for the ‘Curse of Bhulrasan’, I would have been even happier to see you.
Let me introduce myself first.

I am the ruler of Bhulrasan and protector of all its people. They call me Bhulra Imoog.

In the language of this world, my name means something like ‘dragon who possesses the power of fire’, so like fire dragon!

I did good deeds for a thousand years in order to complete the Cintamani and was soon to become a fire dragon. I would only have needed one more day… But then it was all ruined, just like that.

That ungodly creature that came here from the other world brought a curse upon us!
She looked like a beautiful woman, except she wasn’t human. She called herself… Chihamaktu… or something like that. I’m sorry, it’s hard to pronounce names from the other world.

She supposedly arrived here suddenly when she was exploring the corridor. She seemed very humble and polite, but when she learned that I would soon become a fire dragon, that changed abruptly.

She asked me if I could show her what I’d achieved, and… I was so stupid. I was so caught up in the euphoria of becoming a fire dragon that I showed her the Cintamani.

She took a huge swing at it and struck the Cintamani with a terrible blow. At that moment, my thousand years of preparations had all come to nothing.
The Cintamani was contaminated by her betrayal.

When I froze in fear, she just scoffed and said that there would never be another Dragon Lord. Then she disappeared into the other world.

I don’t know why she did it, but one thing is certain.

She’s afraid that someone with great power will appear.
The Curse of Bhulrasan wasn’t over yet.

Because my thousand years of preparation were rendered useless, I was overcome with uncontrollable rage and hatred—feelings I had purged myself of through a millennium of tough groundwork. I had to release those feelings in order to protect everyone.

That’s how a monstrosity known as Gangcheol was brought to life in Bhulrasan.

Gangcheol tore the fabric of space to seek out Chiamaktu in the other world she had fled to. Demons and all sorts of diabolical creatures from every world poured into Bhulrasan through the rift.

If we don’t destroy Gangcheol, Bhulrasan will be like a lantern in the wind.
Gangcheol and I share one body. I can’t attack him and he can’t attack me.

There’s a reason why so many tried to get through to Bhulrasan through Gangcheol’s rift but failed miserably.

Anyone with intentions of cruelty, staging an ambush or coming to destroy justice won’t succeed in entering this place. You and your friends, on the other hand, were invited because you have no malice in your hearts.

My guest, please help me to calm the enraged Gangcheol. For peace in Bhulrasan…!

Gangcheol is in the far north of Bhulrasan, in Hanbul Cave.

We’ll meet again once you’ve eliminated him.
I’ve been watching your and your companions’ actions closely.

I’ve trained in combat for a millennium but I’ve never seen moves like that before.

We’ve learnt a lot thanks to you.
It will all go back to the beginning.

If I slowly devote myself to training again and overcome the Cintamani’s deception, I’ll become a fire dragon one day.

I’ll never forget how you helped Bhulrasan, and me.

Farewell, guest from the other world.
So we meet again, Player.

Did you take care of everything in the Dokkaebi Realm?
It’s frightening and amazing to think that there is a world we know nothing about, even though we’ve experienced so many times and places.

Even in this unknown world, you and your comrades have overcome adversity without letting it intimidate you. I will be informing the Guardian League about it.

You’ve really done very well.
