Kenshiro barely has time to breathe after his encounter with Vahl before the weight of his decision crashes down on him.

As he grapples with the implications of his new power, Kenshiro digs deeper into the system that governs this world. His quest log offers more than just a list of tasks; it’s a cryptic map of his fate, with messages from Tara that hint at something far bigger than he ever imagined. Between the unsettling control he now wields and the lingering question of what Vahl really wanted, Kenshiro faces a chilling reality: power isn’t free, and neither is survival. With each revelation, the mystery of Nowhere only grows deeper, and Kenshiro is left wondering whether he’s on the path to dominance—or if he’s simply another piece being moved across the board.

As the team quickly harvests the creature for valuable materials, Kenshiro grapples with the limitations of his current strength and the group's decision to sell the second core rather than let him use it. Though grateful for their protection and guidance, a seed of frustration grows in him, knowing how much the core could have meant for his survival.
As the group journeys onward toward the city of Bethaven, Kenshiro seeks to learn more about the world’s strange, mana-filled cores. Myrtle eagerly explains their nature, how they form within magical beasts, and the dangerous effects they can have on creatures.
