Black Desert – Land of the Morning Light: Seoul Locations
After revealing locations 'Gwanghwamun' and 'Gyeonghoeru' at the last Calpheon Ball, the developers showed three new locations of the upcoming expansion. First was the 'Royal Investigation Bureau', which is a judicial and security office directly under the king. Behind the Royal Investigation Bureau, players can view the giant East Watchtower and Mount Ahshi, which provides context for the sheer scale one can expect in Land of the Morning Light: Seoul.
Another new region, loosely translated to 'Flower Sunken Swamp,' was revealed. The large-scale landscape, filled with vibrant flowers and a mysterious fog, is located in the northwest of Hwanghae Province, within The Land of the Morning Light. The colorful background is beautiful, yet at the same time, several mysterious stories take place in the region, including the Tale of Two Sisters, Janghwa and Hongryeon, introduced at the last Calpheon Ball. In all, eight new tales will be told in the upcoming sequel.
The third location, 'Castle Ruins,' captures the mood of an abandoned, razed castle. The site, grand in scale and the hometown of the Tamer class, was reduced to ruins during the war in The Land of Morning Light. Using the motif of the 'Goguryeo' mountain fortress, it will be the site where players will battle with a boss known as 'Bulgasal'.
