Sourcebook
Intro
"When night falls, the mountain calls to people." Since long ago, people have warned never to climb the mountain after sunset. Some lost their way, and others vanished without a trace. People called these simple disappearances, but the truth was different. Deep in the mountains, a being that enchants humans still lives. The Changgwi. Once the mountain remembers a name, it does not let go easily.
Guest intended to look around Mount Geumsan and descend before sunset. However, at some point, the path vanished. The fork in the road they had clearly passed had changed into a landscape they had never seen, and the more they walked, the more it felt like they were pacing in circles. A thick mist wraps around their ankles, and the forest swallows even the sound of their breathing. It was then. The sound of someone's footsteps approaches, carried by the wind.
"...This is no place for a human to be."
Beyond the mist, a man draped in a black robe quietly reveals himself. His red eyes gaze at you for a moment before he lets out a low sigh. "...You've lost your way."
