About this listen

The ashes of the Winter Festival settled, but peace was a luxury I couldn't afford. The threats were escalating, and staying put meant stagnation. If I wanted to face what was coming, I had to get stronger, even if it meant leaving Waybound's walls behind.

My journey took me far East, into the mystical and perilous Shan Gui Highlands—a land steeped in spirits, Yokai, and watched over by powerful Mountain Gods. Alongside my loyal werewolf maid, my ascending phoenix ally, and an adventurous Goryeo princess, we navigated treacherous paths, battled ancient guardians, and sought legendary power. One destiny was reforged with divine flames, while I claimed a notorious Demon Blade, embracing the darkness necessary for survival.

But power attracts challenges. Our return to the Academy coincided with the legendary Summer Festival, held within the shifting, ghost city of Nevaramis. Disguised amongst adventurers and mercenaries, I entered its deadly trials, only to find the tournament was a facade. The Outer God Cult was already inside, their final ritual nearing completion.

Trapped in a labyrinth designed by forgotten powers, surrounded by ruthless competitors and hidden cultists preparing to unleash an ancient horror, the true test begins.

I hate murim generally because it all too happily reinforces what is essentially bad writing. There is a plot hook a progression system and the right drama to get you there and that's if done right.

Here, we have an insistence on not only bad tropes, but we have an overlay of what is apparently another game - a murim game. And that's with the indirect lens of it being clear that this is all originally a video game. There are so many levels of what's wrong with it, and that's just on the conceptual plot point.

On top of that, we have some if the driest performance to ensure that under no circumstances you are permitted to immerse yourself in the setting.

I feel mean saying all this, but desperately wish someone told me so before I bit down and determined I would finish.

By the powers of plot contrivance, I bid you do the thing!
