"Power is not given. It is claimed from what once devoured gods."
The City of Sin stirred.
As Jiwoon followed the echoing howl from the Queen's throne hall, the ancient streets shifted—opening a path deeper into the abyss beneath the city.
[Path of the Forsaken Flame – Unlocked]
[Location: Heart of the Sinforge]
The Black Forge
Jiwoon stood before a colossal forge carved into the ribcage of a dead dragon god—its bones etched with inscriptions in forgotten tongues, glowing faintly with residual sin.
Within the flames rested a shard of obsidian, still beating like a living heart.
The Queen's voice echoed in his mind.
"Long ago, the Black Dragon Emperor ruled this city.
When he fell, his remains became our foundation.
From his sin, the armor was born."
The Armor Awakens
Jiwoon stepped into the forge.
The shard leapt toward him.

[Forging Process Initiated: Ebonwyrm Exordium – Awakened]
A burst of searing energy engulfed him.
When the fire cleared…
He stood clad in black, scale-like armor—alive, breathing, coiled with sin.

A New Weapon
From the same forge, the remains of a shattered claw reformed into a new weapon—
A jagged glaive known as:
"Grieffang – The Fang of Condemned Kings"
It sang with sorrow. Hungered for justice.
Forged from the fang of the Sin Dragon King himself.

[Special: Deals true damage to any creature aligned with divine law]
Destiny Ignited
As Jiwoon walked back to the Queen's chamber, the four Sin Generals stirred.
Baekro spoke from the shadows.
"You wear the armor like it remembers you."
The Queen rose.
"The first queen wore that armor and rode the Abyssal Qirin into war.
You are the second.
The world does not know it yet…
but the godkiller has returned."
Jiwoon gripped his glaive.
"I won't kill gods.
But I will burn their lies."
