■ The Rift Between Two Realms
“Elion, the god of light and order. Hadum, the goddess of darkness and chaos. Two deities whose simple, contrasting epithets belie their complex relationship. They are the ones who, together, bring balance to the world.
But signs of imbalance have begun to appear at an unprecedented rate.
A sun that doesn't rise during the day, mysterious totems scattered across several regions…
There is no doubt that Hadum's powers gave rise to the darkness that is encroaching upon our realm. We must cleanse the lands of this foul influence and prepare ourselves against the approaching threat.
Head to Velia and speak with Alustin. He may have information about the darkness that can help us.'

■ Preparations For Battle
“There is no time to waste. The situation is critical. We must ready ourselves for the coming darkness.
The Secret Guards are in the midst of gathering adventurers from all corners of the land to prepare for what results from this imbalance.'
“You may have to venture into the realm of Hadum, the goddess of darkness. A battle in a realm of chaos will be fraught with danger. Here, use this totem. It will give you the strength to fight back against this new threat.'

■ Hadum's Realm
“A rift appeared that linked the parallel realms of Elion and Hadum together.
The peacefulness of Elion's Realm was shattered as the darkness from Hadum's Realm bled through the rift and began tainting the lands.
The darkness spread and strengthened as time passed.
But to counter the encroaching darkness, Lightstones and Crystals haved gained a new power.'
The power of light has morphed to help those willing to fight Hadum and restore the balance between the realms. Lightstones and Crystals have gained the following functions:
1. The light within [An], [Ti], [Tae], and [Ki] Lightstones can be extracted and used to enter Hadum's Realm.
2. Items with new powers can be crafted using Abyssal Crystals.
Get stronger and prepare to fight against the coming darkness!

■ Savage Giant Ogre

The Savage Giant Ogre, the leader of the ogres in Southwest Calpheon, was large and powerful enough to rival his brother Muraka, the King of Ogres.

He coveted the artifacts within the Chamber of the Ancients and entrusted many with this mission. However, none who set out on this mission were ever successful.

Already angered by so many failures, he became consumed with rage when he received word that one of the men he sent out on the mission to the Chamber of the Ancients was captured, now a prisoner at the Western Guard Camp.

Enraged and unwilling to let such transgressions go, the Savage Giant Ogre decided to complete this mission himself.
Word of his decision spread rapidly throughout Southwest Calpheon and threw the region into a state of tension.
