[ Muyeon ]

If you're looking for the teacher, she's in the other room.

Okay, I'll tell you the story.

The Payon Cave is used to be a part of a village that was buried under a landslide.

As you can guess many people were buried with it, and their spirits are hunting the cave.

Some of them were the nine-tailed foxes. The foxes anger is beyond normal.

That's the reason we have been performing a ritual in regular basis.

But now the problem is,

The foxes spirits are getting more resentful by time, and no one knows the reason why.

Maybe the ritual is the reason they are angry, it's not working as we hoped it would.

And, every time I performed the ritual, I had nightmares about the resentful spirits and wailing nine-tailed foxes.

Soul Linkers communicates with the spirits for a living, Having nightmares is just occurs normally.

So when my first nightmare occurred, I thought it was under the same boat as the others.

But now I know the difference, It also has nothing to do with my health.

Whatever it is the reason that agitates the spirits of the nine-tailed foxes.

It drove me from sanity and sent me going to the ruined village.

And, I saw something.

It's an image of another world, different from ours.

We must shut that place down, so no one will be able to access it.

I have an uneasy feeling that a dreadful is going to take place.

Or maybe it's already taking place..

The vague image I saw is indistinguishable from hell.

I saw it after the last ritual that I did.

I beg of you, don't ask me to return doing that again.

I'm not mentally strong enough to handle such nightmares.

Much less on what's taking place inside the cave.

If you want to go, you'll have to go alone and see it for yourself.

I still carry the fox bead that I tried to purify. Let me know when you are ready.

Are you ready?

Let me know when you're ready.

Okay, this fox bead is not completely purged yet.

Place it in your hand.

Relax... and focus your mind on it ... open your mind to its energy.

Now you know what I've been through.

If you want to look further into this, you'll have to visit the ruined village.

If you decide to do it, it'll make you one of us, very ecstatic. Probably because he is a fool.

I see.

So They've come true.

You don't know why, do you?

Maybe it's because the walls between reality and dreams have collapsed.

Otherwise, how could you go in and out of someone else's dream?

I know they're dreamt by the Moonlight Flowers.

I don't know how they've become reality. I doubt anyone knows, really.

As far as I remember, nothing like this has ever happened before. If we want to figure this out, we're on our own.

Well, I'll let Chunghae figure it out.

Alright, then I'd better go get some rest.

Now that I know that those nightmares really originated from Moonlight Flowers, I feel better.

I can sleep at last.

We won't need more rituals once we deal with the nightmares.

Does this mean I'm free? Free at last!

I don't even know how to thank you.

I've found this strange stones while I was there. It's not much,

but maybe you can find an use for those?

Thank you so much adventurer.

Good luck investigating the phenomenon with Chunghae!

Once the nightmares are gone, we won't need to perform the ritual anymore!

How can I be sure, you ask?

I'm not sure. Heh heh.

They might not go away completely.

Who knows?
