He was sweeping the courtyard of Hyeoncheonjeon as usual.
...It seems a guest is coming today.
He lit incense inside Hyeoncheonjeon and finished a short prayer.
....It must be a quite desperate wish.
He was lying lazily on the roof of Hyeoncheonjeon with his eyes closed. Opening one eye, he looked down.
If a human comes, I wonder if the Master will visit after so long.
He looked up at the sky.
I hope they come. It feels like it's been a long time since we last saw them.
*Cheonjusan — The pillar that supports the heavens.
People say: "If Cheonjusan collapses, the world collapses with it."
Deep within Cheonjusan, at the boundary between the human world and the divine realm, stood 'Hyeoncheonjeon — The place connecting the Master of the Mountain and humans.'
People of the world called that place by a single name.
'Cheonmun'
A place no one can simply visit. The gate of heaven that opens only to those worthy of reaching the Master of the Mountain.
There were the Musas known as guardians — those who serve the Mountain God and bridge the gap between god and man, Dohyeon and Yeonwoo. And there was Danhong, who suddenly appeared one day and took up residence.
