すべてのメモの場所とテキスト

学校。パート1

1/10:スミ、光州での生活

場所:カフェテリア

私が質素な家庭に生まれたのは1938年の秋でした。私たちは7年間、光州の小さな家族の家に住んでいました。父は米や大麦を収穫する農家として働いていました。母は綿工場で働いていました。兄のスホと私は、両親が見ていない家事を手伝っていました。当時、誰もが自分の体重を支えていました。それは予想されたことであり、私たちは細心の注意を払ってそれを行いました。困難な年でしたが、お互いの仲間と笑い声で大きな慰めを得たので、私たちは幸せでした.

2/10:運命の日、スミ

場所:トイレ、2 階

1945 年 8 月 15 日は、私の 7 歳の誕生日でした。国は35年ぶりに独立を祝った。父は、娘の誕生日がそのような日になるのは縁起が良いと信じていました。母は彼が迷信的すぎると叱った。その月の終わりに、彼は突然、私たちが土地を売却し、より良い機会を求めて兄に近づくためにソウルに引っ越すと発表しました.少女だった私は、大都市への旅が何年も経ったように感じたことを今でも覚えています。暇つぶしに、兄がリコーダーの吹き方を教えてくれました。彼はその後もずっと家庭教師を続けました。それらのセッションは今では貴重な思い出です。

3/10:セファ研究所、スミ

場所：職員室前

ソウルに到着してから数か月は激動の日々でした。父ががっかりしたことに、それは政治的動乱の危険な時期でした。私の家族は、ソンルンと呼ばれる未開発の都市地区に定住しました。当時、それは2つの点で最も注目に値しました。カトリック宣教師の際立った存在と、神秘的なアメリカ人家族が所有するセファ研究所の卓越性。私たちのコミュニティは、さまざまなアウトリーチ活動で組織をよく知っていました。彼らの開発プロジェクトが私たちの地区にもたらした利益にもかかわらず、セファ研究所は疑わしい秘密の霧に覆われていました.

4/10:英語学習、スミ

場所:学校のロビー

セファ研究所は、1945 年から 1949 年にかけて松陵でのプレゼンスを強化しました。彼らはセファ病院を開設し、1932 年から開いていたセファ アカデミーを拡張しました。西洋人は主に両方の施設にスタッフを配置しました。スホはアカデミーに通い、英語が流暢になりました。彼はそれを自然に使いこなすことができ、彼の知性は私の両親にとって大きな誇りでした。彼は言語の読み書きも教えてくれました。彼への私の憧れは日を追うごとに増していきました。私は彼のようになりたかった。何年も前に彼からもらったリコーダーを使って今でも練習しています。それは彼の足跡をたどる私の個人的な方法でした.

5/10:1950年夏、スミ

場所：地下倉庫、発電機室

1950 年の夏に恐怖がやってくるのに、私たちは何も備えることができませんでした。北朝鮮軍が 38 度線を越えたという知らせが届いたとき、私たちの地区全体が混乱に陥りました。私の家族は、危険が差し迫っているにもかかわらず、市民にソウルにとどまり、政府を信頼するよう促した李大統領のラジオ発表を聞いていました。私の家族は何が起こるかを知っていたので、運べるだけの荷物をまとめて、燃えている街から徒歩で逃げました。わが軍がハン橋を破壊する直前に、ハン橋を渡りました。それは私たちの人生で最も困難な旅でした。多くの苦しみと心痛を経て、私たちはついに最後の都市である釜山にたどり着きました。当時 16 歳だったスホが他の生徒たちと一緒に志願兵として参加することを発表したのはそこでした。私は無駄に怒って抗議しました.

学校。パート 2

このセクションのすべてのメモは、T-Money カードのために学校に戻った後、ストーリーを通じてさらにアクセスできます。

6/10:恐怖の日々、スミ

場所:学習室Ⅰ

敵が釜山を取り囲み、私の家族は閉じ込められました。破滅が差し迫っているという嫌な予感が私たちを襲いました。それから数週間、私たちの家族はラジオの周りで陰気な沈黙の中に身を寄せることがよくありました。私たちは街中で闘争が猛威を振るっているというニュースを切望していました。私は、スホが米国の指揮下にある他の韓国軍とともに釜山周辺に駐留していることを知り、彼の気分を高揚させるために地元の連絡先を通じて自分の写真を送った。ある日、ダグラス・マッカーサー元帥の仁川上陸の報せが届いた。私たちの悲惨な状況に関する絶望感は、すぐに慎重な楽観主義に屈しました.

7/10:私のエクソダス、スミ

場所:生物学研究室

9月、国連軍がソウルを奪還したというニュースは、私たちの気持ちを証明しました。これらの肯定的な結果にもかかわらず、スホからの連絡はありませんでした。私たちは、彼が同じ軍隊と共にソウルにいると仮定しました。戦闘が続くにつれて、数か月は数年に変わりました。両親は悲しみに打ちひしがれていましたが、人生は続きました。私たちに残されたのは希望だけでした。 1953 年の初春、私は母と深刻な口論になりました。振り返ってみると、私たちの戦いが何であったかさえ思い出せません。彼女の平手打ちの鋭い刺し傷は、今でも記憶に新しい。私は両親が眠りにつくのを待ち、感情が高ぶったまま、慌てて荷物をまとめて夜中に逃げました。

8/10:ソウル、スミへの旅

場所:校長室

私は自分の名前をほとんど何も持たずに、急いで詰め込んだ服といくつかの持ち物を背負って、ソウルへの不安定な旅に出ました。私の行動が母の悲しみを悪化させたことを知って、私は意地悪なプライドを感じました。これは、私を平手打ちしたことで彼女を罰する方法でした。一歩進むごとに解放感が増していきました。私は見知らぬ人の善意に頼って、目的地に近づくことができました.欺瞞の芸術はどういうわけか私に自然に身につき、私は毎日大人に私の技術を磨いていました.指が軽いので、お腹が減ることはありませんでした。本当の最終目標はなく、スホと再会して幸せを見つけるという漠然とした考えだけでした.何度も挫折を経て、やっとソウルにたどり着きました.

9/10:瓦礫の街、墨

場所:コンピュータ ラボ

何年にもわたる砲撃により、ソウルは地に落ちた。私はあてもなく、信じられない状態で街の通りをさまよいました。老朽化した建物が残っており、長年の放置により荒廃していました。住民は、かつて活気にあふれていた地区の名残りにスラム街を建てていました。認識できませんでした。長い旅に疲れ果てた私は、やがて静かな路地を見つけ、路上で眠りについた。鮮やかな夢を見てから目が覚めました。 8年前に私たちが定住した松陵に自然と惹かれました。私は自分の人生が永遠に変わろうとしていることを知りませんでした.

10/10:再会、スミ

場所:医療センター

私がソンルンに着いたとき、私たちの近所の多くが街の残りの部分と同じ運命をたどっていたことがわかりました。私の検索は続き、それから私はそれを見ました。がれきと廃墟の中で、私たちの家。ほこりと灰がその外観を鈍らせましたが、そこには一人で反抗的に立っていました.正面玄関は半開きで、私は慎重に内部を再認識しながら通り抜けました。私は兄と私がかつて共有していた古い寝室の中に引っ越しました。部屋の隅には軍服姿のスホが倒れていた。私は彼の目を見ましたが、内なる光は消えていました。彼の手には開いたお守りがあり、私が彼に送った写真が入っていました。悲しみが私を襲い、私はそこに落ちました。眠るまで涙が止まりませんでした。

警察署

1/10:掃除当番、セホ・ギル

場所：警備室前

私の奇妙な旅は、可能な限り平凡な方法で始まりました。いつものように、ミョンギルはテフンと私に問題を起こしていました。事態が頭に浮かんだとき、教師のマッド・ドッグの注意を引きました。彼はいじめっ子に対して私たちの味方になると思っていましたが、古いオナラが私たちを保管室の清掃当番にしました。私たちはその夜、放課後に始めました。部屋は半世紀もの間、ほこりを払っていないように見えました。テフンがミツバチのように熱心に掃除をしている間、私は余った時間を使っていくつかの箱を調べました。

2/10:ローズウッド リコーダー、セホ ギル

場所:将校宿舎

1つの箱をくまなく調べていると、真鍮のラッチが付いた革のケースを見つけました。一気に引き込まれたのを覚えています。 PC ルームでゲームをしていると、ダンジョンを走っているときにユニークなアイテムを発見したときのようなものです。ただの粗末なローズウッドのリコーダーだと知ったときの私の失望を想像してみてください。私は音楽に興味がないので、テフンに演奏方法を知っているか尋ねました。彼は、それは古くて役に立たないように見え、口の近くに置くことは夢にも思わないと言いました.私の中の逆張り者は彼の軽蔑的な態度を理解していなかったので、私はそれを家に持ち帰りました.

3/10:白い嘘 セホ・ギル

場所:証拠保管庫

お父さんはいつも ♥♥♥ に悩まされていました。彼がその学期の私の点数に非常に失望したことは助けにはなりませんでした.私がリコーダーを持って家に帰ったとき、彼は私にそれをどこで手に入れたのか尋ねました。私は彼に、私が音楽のレッスンを受けているのは、彼が私の背中から離れられるようにするためだと彼に話しました。彼が笑ったと信じられますか？私は正直言って、老人がこんなに幸せなのを見たことがありません。彼は放課後の授業料を支払うことさえ申し出ました。さて、これは計画としてどうでしたか？私は彼をその申し出に連れて行き、代わりに PC バンでその余分な小銭を使いました。もし彼が私をテストしてくれたら、私は小学校で習った古い曲を何曲か弾くことができた…

4/10:音楽レッスン、セホ ギル

場所:独房 D

ある日ミョンギルに出くわし、彼は私のお金を取り上げると脅しました。音楽の先生の能さんが近くにいたので声をかけました。私は彼女にお父さんのお金を渡し、放課後の音楽教室に参加してリコーダーの練習をしたいと言いました。それでミョンギルはなくなりましたが、私はまだ夕方の音楽レッスンに夢中でした.私は状況全体について完全に腹を立てていました。私の運だけ！リコーダーは正規の楽器なのだろうかと思ったことを覚えています。他のみんなはヴァイオリンかピアノを習っていました。私は間違いなくばかみたいになるつもりだった!

5/10:古い楽譜、セホ ギル

場所：地下駐車場の端

私は早く能さんの部屋に着きました。彼女は私がリコーダーを演奏したことがあるかどうか尋ねたので、私はそれが小学校以来の最初のクラスであると彼女に話しました。ケースを開けると、リコーダーのパーツが入ったベルベットのコンパートメントの下に古い楽譜が入っているのを発見しました。彼女はそれをレビューし、最初の数ページは初心者に最適であると言いましたが、他の部分はもう少し高度に見えました.私はそこで立ち往生したので、それを試してみました。夢にも思っていませんでしたが、これが私にもたらす新しい可能性を想像することはできませんでした.

6/10:チャレンジ受諾、セホ・ギル

場所:尋問室、右ドア

信じられますか？音楽のレッスンは私に成長しました。数か月後、私はリコーダーにも習熟しました。私は家で練習し、それが私の進歩を速めました。能夫人は、これほど急速な進歩を見たことがないと私に言いました。あなたが本当にそのような音楽的才能を持っていることを誰が知っていたでしょうか?簡単な曲から難しい曲まで、楽譜を見ていきました。特に、私が釘付けにならなかった作品が1つありました。能はそれを私にとってマイルストーンの挑戦として設定し、私は喜んで受け入れました.練習を続けるために、その後も学校に残り始めました。時には私が最後尾だったこともありましたが、目標に近づいていました.

7/10:奇妙な会社、セホ ギル

場所:トイレ、2 階 (このメモを取得するには、地下鉄駅レベルの管理人室でバールを取る必要があります)

ある夜、延滞した宿題を終わらせるために学校に遅くまで泊まりました。仕事をしている間、私はレコーダーを取り出して机の上に置きました。ある時点で、私は居眠りをしたに違いありません。目が覚めたら、学校は暗く、みんな建物から出ていた。さらに悪いことに、私の電話は機能せず、誰かがドアをロックしました。ある窓の外を見ましたが、見えたのは不気味な黒い虚空だけでした。その時、私はパニックになり始めました。それから彼女は到着しました。私はこの女の子を見たことがありませんでしたが、彼女は合計10/10でした.彼女は古いセファの制服を着ていましたが、それは少し奇妙でした.彼女も私に期待しているようだった。ねえ、私は文句を言うつもりはありませんでした…

8/10:黒魔法少女 ギル・セホ

場所:廊下の角、3 階

ヌナと呼んでくださいと言われました。彼女がなぜ「お姉さん」と呼ばれることを主張したのかはわかりません。彼女は私の手を取り、学校の暗い廊下を案内してくれました。彼女はとても見覚えがありましたが、指を置くことができませんでした。この湯たんぽが私と一緒に時間を過ごしたいと思っているなんて信じられませんでした。私はその瞬間に夢中になり、全体の状況がどれほど奇妙であったかをほとんど忘れていました.彼女は「私の世界」にとても興味があり、私たちは何時間も話しました。彼女は過去にとらわれているようだった。ある時、彼女は私にきちんとしたものを見たいかと尋ねました。拒否するのは誰でしたか？彼女は部屋の中央まで歩き、空中浮遊を始めました。

9/10:コデックス・イルミナス、セホ・ギル

場所:尋問室、左ドア (このメモを取得するには、地下鉄駅レベルの管理人室でバールを取る必要があります)

彼女は、これらすべての力が私のものになる可能性があると私に言いました…そしてそれ以上。彼女はお金を払えば秘密を喜んで教えてくれました。しかし、何かが正しく感じられませんでした。私はそれを考えるのにもっと時間が必要だと彼女に言いました。それから私は本当に目が覚めましたが、私が見たのは単なる夢ではないことを知っていました.あのキラー能力で何をするか、空想にふけるのを止められなかった。ミョンギルに忘れられない教訓を教えてあげるかもしれません。戻らなければならないことはわかっていましたが、準備する必要がありました。さらなる手がかりを求めて古い倉庫を探しました。その時、Codex Illuminus という古い本を見つけました。それは私の疑いをすべて確認しました…

10/10:ペットのサキュバス、セホ・ギル

場所:副局長室 (このメモを取得するには、地下鉄駅レベルの管理人室でバールを取る必要があります)

私は昏睡と呼ばれる影の領域に入りました。その女の子は、セファ高校の地元の「陰」でした。私のローズウッド リコーダーはレリックです。コーデックス イルミナスを信じるなら、これらのレリックは、刻印されたシェードを制御することさえできます。私は鍵、本、そしてモクシーを持っていました—ケーキを持って食べてみませんか？私は戻って、今度は彼女の前でリコーダーを演奏しました。攻撃を試みたとき、彼女は目に見えない鎖で拘束されているように見えました。彼女は私の腕をつかみそうになりましたが、私はついに彼女を制圧しました。私はペットのサキュバスを使って自分の入札を実行することで、自分自身の暗い王国を完全に支配しました!

ドッケビ市場。パート1

1/7:シャドウ レルム、セーワ インスティテュート ドシエ

場所:衣料品市場

昏睡状態は、Waking World の要素が影のように現れたものです。鮮やかな空想、既視感、幻想的な出来事、奇妙な噂。誰もが昏睡を経験していますが、その本質を知っている人はほとんどいません。それは私たちとつながっているので、私たちはそのマイナーな側面を知覚します。ほとんどの人は、これらの超自然的なものとの出会いを、明晰さのつかの間の失速として一掃します。しかし、それらははるかに多くあります。これらは別の世界の断片です。実際、その存在の小さな手がかりです。その境界のベールを越えて探検する者は、不気味な力を手に入れ、闇の精霊と交信するかもしれません.

2/7:シャーマン、セーワ研究所書類

場所:ウヒョクベーカリー

シャーマンは、人類の黎明期から昏睡状態を知っていました。伝説によると、すべてのシャーマンは母系の血統を共通の祖先までさかのぼることができます。この原始シャーマニズムの存在は、何世紀にもわたって多くの名前で呼ばれてきました。彼女は現在、一般的にバーバ・ヤーガと呼ばれています。シャーマンの部族の祖先は、文明の周縁部に住み、黒魔術とアニミズムを実践していました。彼らは、人間の感情とそれらに拍車をかける行動が、影の領域の存在そのものを養うことを学びました。彼らの儀式により、彼らは私たちの世界を超えた実体と交信することができます。この異様な知識は、彼らを恐れ、尊敬し、ののしった。何世紀にもわたって、闇との持続的な接触が彼らの血そのものを変質させてきました。彼らは考慮すべき強力な力です。彼らは英雄や著名な王たちに助言を与え、人類の歴史の進路を深遠な方法で舵取りし続けています。

3/7:影、セファ研究所の資料

場所:コインランドリー

The Coma で行っているように、日光の下で影を落とします。影は私たちの潜在意識の意識的な現れです。誰かの精神が強力であるほど、彼または彼女の影はより明晰になります。私たちはこれらのエンティティを「Sober Shadows」と呼んでいます。彼らは、Waking World のカウンターパートの抑圧された感情を示します。逆に気弱な人は「マッドシャドウ」と呼ばれる、目に見えるものすべてを攻撃する拷問された生き物を出現させます。彼らは最も基本的な欲求に基づいて行動します。一部の影は人間からまったく発生しません。 they come from rumor collectives so powerful, they are literally memed into existence.

4/7:Flesh Thralls, Sehwa Institute Dossier

Location:Market Service Office

Flesh Thralls are macabre entities constructed, through the use of eldritch blood magick, to serve the whims of their masters. They may be mindless or possess cunning intelligence. Their powers wax and wane with the influence their masters exert over the domains in which they roam. It is a powerful agent of force and will carry out its master’s bidding with a single-minded focus. These creatures also have the limited ability to phase into new locations, allowing them to traverse vast distances in seconds. Should a Flesh Thrall’s creator die, however, it too will suffer the same fate.

5/7:Shades, Sehwa Institute Dossier

Location:In front of Butcher Shop

Shades are powerful, local spirits that inhabit The Coma. They are sentient manifestations of the collective emotions, historical trauma, and human routines associated with a specific area. Shades are highly territorial and will go through great lengths to exert control over the domains that bind them. Shadows naturally gravitate toward the willpower of their Shade. While these entities may be benign or dangerous, they are often deceitful and willing to manipulate gullible humans to achieve their ends. Their surroundings influence their forms, and it is unknown to what degree they may control their appearances. In rare occurrences, a Shade may manifest from the powerful emotions of a single individual from the Waking World.

6/7:The Notemen, Sehwa Institute Dossier

Location:Underground Hallway

The Notemen are Shades bound to a local domain and cursed with an unending compulsion to record the thoughts and utterings of folks from the Waking World. Unlike their brethren, they are naturally attuned to receive this information, no matter how discreet it may be. It also seems they show no discrepancy between what they record, aside from a tendency to focus on darker thoughts. They do this in the form of loose-leaf notes, sticky memos, or scrawls left on the walls. Despite their highly compulsive nature, they can still be unpredictable and contact with them should be conducted cautiously.

7/7:Dokkaebi, Sehwa Institute Dossier

Location:Dokkaebi Shop (After signing the bill for Dokkaebi)

The Dokkaebi are semi-legendary creatures well-known in Korean folklore. These “Goblins,” while technically classed as Shades, have distinct attributes that separate them from their more common brethren. They possess an innate ability to use powerful magick, unmatched in the Shadow Realm, that may manifest in the form of blue Goblin Fire. They are also alchemists skilled in transmuting metals and concocting various elixirs. Dokkaebi are mischievous tricksters with a penchant for pranks. One only strikes bargains with them at their own peril. Koreans named Dokkaebi Markets after the elusive nature of these entities and their ability to vanish.

Dokkaebi Market. Part 2

1/4:Ancient Pedigree, Jang-mi

Location:Traders Market, second floor

My childhood was anything but ordinary. In fact, my earliest memory was from a crib. I remember my mother’s smiling face looking down at me. I even remember her soothing voice as she sang a lullaby. The warmth, her touch, and the atmosphere of the room embedded in my mind – more of a feeling, yet still so vivid. Years later, I learned that most people considered this peculiar. This did not surprise my parents. When I was four years old, they told me I was a special child. Unlike other children, I had the blood of Shamans, and this endowed me with abilities that required cultivation. My homeschooling began on that day. It was a curriculum especially designed to hone my latent powers for the fight to come.

2/4:Clarity in Purpose, Jang-mi

Location:Vegetable Store

My family can trace its ancestry in the Yeongnam region back for many centuries. Some trainees undergo a rigorous initiation ceremony to become shamans. Others have a symbiotic relationship with a possessive spirit. I inherited the exclusive right to perform rituals in our home district through my family’s distinct lineage. From the age of four I began the observation, study, and practice of basic ceremonial rites at a remote shrine. I would perform these, under the strict tutelage of the shamanka, so often over the coming years that they became second nature to me. These rites increased in complexity and ranged from dance, song, instruments, and more. I had an elite general education, but it was always clear, however, that becoming a shamanka would be my highest priority. I never truly had a choice in the matter, but the clarity of my purpose came as a great relief to me.

3/4:Born in the Fold, Jang-mi

Location:Karaoke bar (where the Shade Engineer is)

When I was twelve, my teacher shared the true nature of my studies. She revealed that our people had protected Korea from the forces of darkness since a time immemorial. There were others like us, around the world, who shared a similar burden as well; from the Inuit of Alaska to the Bobohizan of North Borneo, those of us, who were born into the fold, were to wage an unending war against the hostile entities seeking to spill into our realm. Historically, our people have faced much opposition and violence from those who did not understand our ways. It behooves us to continue our fight from the shadows to avoid the scrutiny of the unenlightened. On that day, I finally understood the full weight of my responsibilities; it would be my duty to prevent a Blood Ritual and stop Vicious Sister’s attempt to enter the Waking World.

4/4:My Struggle Begins, Jang-mi

Location:Blocked Passage (To get this note you need to take crowbar in Janitor Room and use White Burrow at Staff Lodging of Underground Station level)

The rise and fall of powerful Shades is as predictable as the ebb and flow of the tide. Every region of the world has its own monsters to contend with. They spend decades growing in influence, fear and rumor from the Waking World quietly fueling their power. These local spirits soon move beyond their locality, spreading their dark tentacles into new domains. When their desire for expansion in The Coma no longer sates them, they inevitably turn their dark gaze toward the Waking World. It is common for lesser spirits to find their way into our realm. We can often undo their mischievous presence through simple rituals. Combating a true Shade, in our world, is another matter entirely and cause for great alarm. One need only look at such historical crises as the Bubonic Plague to understand what’s at stake. And so it is that the Vicious Sister has now begun her ascent here. But I will put a swift end to her ambitions with the Moon Incense.

Underground Station. Part 1

1/6:The Order, Yaesol Han

Location:First Exit

Mystery shrouds the true history of the Order of Ghost Vigilantes (or The Order). It is an international group composed of many powerful chapters around the world. The Shadow Ministry, a central leadership headquartered in Rome, binds them. These chapters operate independently and outside the conventional rules of law. Their primary purpose is to protect the Waking World from the ever-present threat of onslaught from hostile entities within the Shadow Realm. Scholars, priests, shamans, mercenaries, and individuals of interest make up its ranks. These people possess unique skill sets and wield great political influence. The Shadow Ministry provides directives to its Ministers (or Bishops), who oversee local chapters.

2/6:The Book of Memories, Yaesol Han

Location:Convenience Store

We lack a thorough understanding of the side effects that may occur from traveling within The Coma. However, we have seen the most basic and disastrous symptoms that may befall individuals unprepared for the Shadow Realm’s adverse psychological influence. From the moment normal people arrive in The Coma, their general sense of identity erodes. Should an individual forget his or her name, it may already be too late to save them from insanity. Those who possess shamanic blood reduce the severity of these symptoms. Alternatively, frequent journeys into The Coma may result in the spiritual conditioning required to withstand the Shadow Realm’s adverse effects. Regardless, it is advisable to record one’s name in The Book of Memories as a safeguard to possibly losing one’s identity.

3/6:Shadow Telecom, Yaesol Han

Location:Second Exit

The Ghost Vigilantes established a mobile network within The Coma called Shadow Telecom. Traditional forms of long-distance communication do not function in the Shadow Realm. The necessity of maintaining close contact with other agents while conducting high-stakes missions prompted prioritization of the network’s establishment. Before a mission begins, modified Base Transceiver Stations are erected in select locations to provide optimal coverage. Return expedition reuse these resilient BTS relays. The network is constantly expanding and is a reliable means of communicating. These phones are fully functional in the Waking World and their securely encrypted lines safeguard against government interference.

4/6:Relics, Yaesol Han

Location:Under escalator near Ticketing Booth

We use Relics (or Totems) to traverse the boundary separating the Waking and Shadow Realms. A Relic’s pull into the Shadow Realm will be stronger if it connects with a location’s tragic history. The Coma naturally draws and anchors those who possess Relics within it. Without full possession of a Relic, leaving the Shadow Realm is impossible since it acts as a totemic vessel to phase between realities. Every Relic has both Waking and Shadow Realm forms. Relics brought into The Coma will usually manifest in their normal physical forms, but this isn’t always the case. Some powerful Relics can even bestow their owners with abilities that many consider unnatural.

5/6:Hellion, Yaesol Han

Location:Janitor Room

Hellion, or “Hell Money”, is currency that holds great value in the Shadow Realm. The practice of traditionally burning hell money as an offering to the deceased began in China. These currencies have regional variants in The Coma and the entities there trade their otherworldly goods for it. In Korea, these spirits prefer traditional coins bearing a resemblance to Joseon era money. True Hellion is difficult to come by in the Waking World; in most cases, a shaman ritualistically blesses these coins in the final stage of their minting process. Similar paper currencies also exist outside of Korea.

6/6:Shadow Incense, Yaesol Han

Location:Platform

This unusual item appears to be ordinary sticks of incense, although the materials that composes them remain a mystery. Sober Shadows or merchants in Shadow Realm will trade it for Hellion. When burned, these sticks release an aromatic smoke that instantly calms any Mad Shadows within their immediate vicinity. This makes Shadow Incense an especially indispensable commodity for adventurers exploring The Coma, since the realm is often fraught with hostile entities.

Underground Station. Part 2

1/4:The Walhyang, Shamanic Lore

Location:AHU

The Walhyang (Moon Incense) is an ancient relic and a traditional blade that was used to conduct shamanic rituals by Korean mudangs. Its continued use in these rituals over many centuries has instilled it with special powers. The complete blade can ferry its bearer between the Waking World and The Coma. When blessed with the Holy Waters of Separation, it can even destroy Shades and other entities of the Shadow World. Only a ruby, charged with light from a Super Blood Moon, can reveal its true powers. One must re-sheathe the blade after it has fulfilled its purpose to protect its unique properties.

2/4:Taejo’s Mirror, Shamanic Lore

Location:Control Center

Shamanic tradition holds that Taejo’s Mirror is an ancient relic that was used to communicate across space-time. In the glow of a Super Blood Moon, those of shamanic ancestry may use the mirror to communicate with individuals from the previous phase of the Super Blood Moon. It is said that even physical objects can pass through the mirror. Leaders have often relied on shamans to consult with oracles from the future using the mirror. The knowledge gained from these dialogues has been used to satisfy simple curiosity or guide successful revolutions. Korea’s unbroken line of shamanic heirs traditionally passed down the mirror from generation to generation for centuries. This changed in the early 20th century, when the Sehwa Institute discovered and confiscated the mirror.

3/4:Blood Rituals, Shamanic Lore

Location:Staff Lounge (After taking crowbar in Janitor Room)

Blood Rituals are an esoteric shadow art most commonly used by powerful Shades to possess the bodies of the living. This allows Shades the ability to traverse the boundary that separates the Waking and Shadow Realms. While the payoff is highly beneficial, the ritual requires many unlikely conditions to align. This makes it difficult to perform. The first requirement is that the Shade must conduct the ritual on the night of a Super Blood Moon. This is when the boundary between realms is at its weakest. Second, the Shade must possess the Relic associated with his or her creation. Third, the Shade must have a Vessel to transfer its spiritual essence into – the body of a mortal human. Finally, the Shade must have the original Relic which brought the human into The Coma. The result is complete possession of the human subject’s body in the Waking World.

4/4:Blood of the Ancients, Shamanic Lore

Location:Staff Lounge

Oral tradition holds that the latent powers of Shamanic blood awoke in certain individuals during the dawn of humanity, thus blessing them with Sight Beyond. They used their powers to travel beyond the boundaries of the known Waking World. They returned from these dangerous expeditions into the unknown with the boon of knowledge for their fellow man. Society both feared and respected the mysterious arts they practiced. They refined their knowledge over many millennia, passing on their traditions and rituals. Today, their descendants wage an unending war against hostile entities from the Shadow Realm. The Miko of Japan, the Bobohizan of North Borneo, the Mudang of Korea – their legacy spans the globe and connects them in this crusade of light.

Hospital. Part 1

1/10:My Rite of Ordination, Minsu

Location:Food Court

Having completed my service as deacon, the time for my Rite of Ordination was finally upon me. I remember the day vividly, but not because of the special milestone it represented in my journey to enter the Catholic Priesthood. The Church was to ordain two of my fellow brothers and I. We prostrated ourselves before the altar while the religious faithful sang the Litany of the Saints. Following this, I watched as each brother knelt before the bishop to receive his prayer. When it was my turn, I too knelt before him and closed my eyes. He placed his hands upon my head to confer his silent blessing.

2/10:White Light, Minsu

Location:Chapel

What I expected to be a symbolic gesture invoking the Holy Spirit, turned out to be much more. A brilliant white light instantly blinded me. A peculiar calm overtook me, and I heard a voice that penetrated my very being. It spoke to me with a dignified tranquility:“Behold, she cometh with the shadows; and every eye shall see her, and all kindreds of the earth shall weep before her.” The voice’s message would continue to haunt me through the years. I began my work at the archdiocese of Seoul overseeing certain administrative functions before they assigned me to a small parish on the outskirts of the city.

3/10:The Strange Case of Joanna Lee, Minsu

Location:Pharmacy

I grew intimately familiar with our vibrant community. One day a young woman entered the confessional to speak with me. I knew her as a newer member of our congregation. She began by recounting her sins before her confession took a turn for the peculiar. She thought God was punishing her family for some unknown indiscretion. When I inquired why she believed this, she told me that her daughter had recently taken ill and, after overcoming that sickness, began to display aberrant behaviors. Her symptoms progressed more dramatically with each passing day and now sharing the same house frightened her. If her story was true, she would have me believe a malicious spirit possessed her daughter.

4/10:A Fateful Visit, Minsu

Location:Doctor’s Office II

I paid a visit to the family’s remote home one evening. The parents had confined the girl to her room. The father told me they had recently moved into the house. They initially believed their daughter had suffered a psychological break because of an illness she picked up after the move. As the days progressed, her symptoms worsened. He explained a new entity had overwhelmed his daughter’s personality and had taken her place. I asked to see her, and he wordlessly led me to the door of her room. Before entering, he cautioned me by saying, “It’s dangerous. It knows things. Be careful.”

5/10:Encounter with a Demon (I), Minsu

Location:File Room

I asked to enter Joanna’s room alone. Inside, I found the girl listlessly gazing out her window. She did not acknowledge my presence when I first spoke her name. The second time I called her, she turned her head slowly in my direction. Her countenance was dark, and she spoke in an unearthly, ominous tone, “You keep calling me that name, priest. Did your God not bless you with eyes to see?” Wounds of self-inflicted bruises and open sores riddled her body. Joanna, or the creature that had possessed her, slowly approached me. She studied my face, her own expression betraying a mild amusement. “You are here because you believe your faith can help these people. How deliciously naïve you are, priest!”

6/10:Encounter with a Demon II, Minsu

Location:First Room of Basement 1 in Funeral Hall

“Your prayers have no power here,” the creature laughed. I asked whom I was addressing and an insidious smile flashed across her face, “My name is Umbra, for we are Shadows.” The demon revealed various facts of my life in a vulgar tirade, meant to belittle me. When I raised my hand against the creature, it gripped my arm and threw me across the room with an unearthly strength. It was then I knew the power of this spirit was beyond my abilities, and I left in haste to seek help. Though unusual, I knew my concerns were best brought directly to the bishop.

7/10:Trained Professionals, Minsu

Location:Restroom, Second Floor

The bishop seemed unwavered by my story. He nodded in silent understanding and revealed that Joanna was beyond the remedy of a traditional exorcism. Umbra would require the aid of trained professionals. He seemed familiar with the demon’s name. When I inquired about this, he told me of spirits unrelated to fallen angels. These were maligned beings from a shadow realm of our own creation. He gave me an old rosary and said, “This will be your Relic. You must use it to journey into the shadow realm and free this girl from Umbra’s grasp.” Fortunately, I would not be alone; our allies, the Ghost Vigilantes, soon arrived.

8/10:Calm Before the Storm, Minsu

Location:Operation Room (To get there, use ladder in Men Restroom near Daycare Center)

The Ghost Vigilantes immediately went to work. Their inquiries revealed a deep understanding of the situation at hand. When they asked about my encounter with Umbra, I recounted my experience and told them the family had recently moved into a new home. The agents asked me to take them there. The next day, before departing, the bishop brought a vial of water to me, “These are the Holy Waters of Separation. We can only use them within the shadow realm. Remember your teachings and perform the rite of exorcism. The Ghost Vigilantes will guide you… they know our ways.”

9/10:Into the Dark, Minsu

Location:Ward 403

We arrived at Joanna’s home around midnight. With her parents’ permission we entered the room. It took great effort, but the three of us restrained and bound the girl securely to her bed frame. The Ghost Vigilantes began a meticulous search of the room. A hidden space beneath a floorboard yielded what they were searching for — a small box containing an old signet ring. One of them spoke up, “This is the Relic she had. She couldn’t have known. There may still be time to help her though.” With that, one agent asked me to close my eyes, and he said an invocation. I clutched the bishop’s rosary tightly and opened my eyes when he finished.

10/10:The Coma Revealed, Minsu

Location:Ward 503

I found myself in a strange place. The room had eroded into a dilapidated, grotesque version of itself. “Welcome to The Coma,” one agent said after noting my surprised expression. We turned to see Joanna, bound to the bed and screaming for help, the shadowy figure of Umbra crouched over her. I began the rites of exorcism and concluded with a prayer to Saint Michael. I dashed the Water of Separation on Umbra and it fled, screaming into the night. We unbound the girl and the Ghost Vigilantes gave her the signet ring. We made the journey back to the Waking World with their invocation, and she rejoined her family. I now realize the voice I heard during my Rite of Ordination was a calling to a greater purpose in service to the Lord.

1/10:A Search for Help, Sumi

Location:Hallway to School

I awoke at night with Suho’s amulet in my hand. An ominous feeling overtook my senses as I sat up and studied my surroundings. I was still in our family home, but it was quiet… too quiet. I decided to find an adult who could help me with my brother’s body. I put the amulet around my neck and set off. I remember feeling unnerved as I wandered the streets, searching for another soul, but finding Songreung to be empty. My path eventually led me to the gates of Sehwa Academy, which had also somehow survived the artillery fire that destroyed much around it. The distinct shadow of a person, looking out to the city, was cast against a lit window. Perhaps I’d find some help here.

2/10:Entering Sehwa Academy, Sumi

Location:Old School, entrance

I passed the creaky gates and knocked on the front door. There was no answer, but a simple twist of the knob let me in. A well-maintained interior greeted me. I nervously made my way through the academy’s halls to the upper floors of the building, looking for the lit room. I eventually found it deserted. An old, leather-bound tome sat open upon a candle-lit desk. Various people had scrawled their names throughout its pages. The ink had barely dried on the page where these signatures ended. I made out the inscription which bore the initials of one, “YSH”.

3/10:A Soulful Melody, Sumi

Location:End of Hallway in Old School

I continued searching the school and calling out for help to no avail. Had my eyes been playing tricks on me? I soon found a quiet corner in what appeared to be a library and lit a candle to rummage through my belongings for any food I had. My hand found the box of the old recorder my brother had gifted me. Touching it brought back a flood of memories and tears began pouring from my eyes. After calming myself, I lifted the rosewood recorder from its case and placed it to my lips. As I played, I felt my anguish empower every note of the melody drawn from my breath. As I brought it to a close, the sound of clapping hands reverberated through the room.

4/10:Figure From the Dark, Sumi

Location:Stafroom Ruins

I shot to my feet, startled by the clapping. A female figure slowly emerged from the shadows cast by the bookshelves. Had she been listening to me the entire time? A trembling voice broke the silence between us, “That melody, so sorrowful… my sister.” My eyes widened in fear and confusion when the light caught her face. It was as if I staring at a reflection of myself. The girl that had walked into the light… was me. She was wearing the same clothes, and her face was still wet with tears. I stumbled back and tried to gain my composure, but the best response I could muster was to ask, “W-who are you?”

5/10:Long-Lost Sister, Sumi

Location:Clasroom 2

“I’m your sister. Can’t you see that?” she asked with genuine confusion. I was surely experiencing some strange fever dream. I regained my composure and said, “That’s not true! I don’t have a sister!” Her face winced in pain. My words had stung her. She took a few cautious steps closer, and I could feel her determined gaze scrutinizing me. “You’re hurt and confused. I’m your big sister and we just lost our dear brother, Suho.” She knew Suho, and her pain seemed real. Did I have a twin? My mind was reeling as she placed a hand on my cheek, “We need each other now more than ever.”

6/10:Mysterious Woman (I), Sumi

Location:Classroom 1

Before I could respond, another young woman burst into the room, startling both of us. She came forward, snatched my hand, and forcefully led me from the room and into the hallway. In the confusion, I dropped the rosewood recorder on the library floor. I struck and shouted at her to no avail; she had an iron grip on my wrist as she wordlessly pulled me along. Her serious expression betrayed a beautiful face. She had flowing black hair and bandages wrapped around her wrists. I finally gave in and followed her lead. As we turned the corner, I took one last glance over my shoulder and saw my sister’s silent silhouette in the library.

7/10:Mysterious Woman (II), Sumi

Location:Morque (To get there you should solve “Door puzzle”. Proper number from left to right:5, 3, 7, because Shades do not see blood-framed doors).

She led me outside the academy. I shouted at her to let go, and she reluctantly released her grip on me. I stumbled back, massaging my sore wrist. She was deceptively strong. It didn’t seem like she intended to do me any harm though. Still, I was no less confused by what had just transpired. “Who are you?!” I screamed. She was unperturbed by my outburst as she silently examined me. Instead of answering, she followed up with her own question:“How did you get here?” I told her the front door was open, and I was looking for help, but this didn’t seem to satisfy her curiosity. The moonlight must have glinted off Suho’s amulet, because it suddenly caught her eye.

8/10:Suho’s Amulet, Sumi

Location:Door Puzzle (Note is in the level with Shade Engineer)

She asked where I found the amulet and the specificity of her question took me aback. I told her it belonged to my brother, Suho. She then asked if I could take her to him. When I told her he was dead, she looked saddened by the revelation. “I’m sorry… he was a good man,” she said. When I asked how she knew him, she told me he had done an invaluable service for our country and was a hero. She once again asked to see him and I could feel her concern was genuine. As I led her back to my home, silence filled the air between us. I had so many questions, but they could wait. I knew I would soon have my answers.

9/10:The Dagger Revealed, Sumi

Location:End of second floor Hallway

She walked into my home and found my brother. She knelt beside him and gently put her hand on his face. “A sister… I didn’t know we had a sister,” I said. She stood up and took me by the shoulders. She spoke with fierce eyes, “That thing is NOT your sister. Do not believe a word it says.” Her attention returned to my brother and a knapsack by his side. She started to open it and I protested in anger. She raised a hand to silence me and continue looking through his belongings. A moment later, her hands found the object of her search and she raised it into the light – a traditional dagger, still concealed by its silver sheath.

10/10:A Fleeting Dream, Sumi

Location:Hallway to School

She said my brother had gone through great lengths to find the dagger which she called Moon Incense and that he had destroyed a mighty “Shade” named Umbra. She told me I was lucky she found me when she did and that my lookalike was another dangerous Shade she had never seen before. She took my hands and told me it was time to go back to my world. She asked me to close my eyes and imagine my family home, in happier times. Her request confused me, but she reassured me that all would be explained in time. Before I complied, I asked who she was. She replied, “Yaesol Han”. When I awoke, the sun was up. I was alone, unsure of whether my experience was a fleeting dream.
