This is the story of my journey across the kingdom, undertaken to deepen my understanding of the four elements: Water, Air, Fire, and Earth. I sought places where I could meditate, immerse myself in nature, and connect with the essence of each element. My path first took me northwest of Kugnae, to a quiet water island. I sat on the steps that touched the water and felt the flow wrap around me. As I listened to its movement, I reflected on Water as the element of healing and emotional understanding. Water touches the heart with comforting hands, cleansing and replenishing the inner self. From there, I traveled higher, climbing the mountains of Vale. The air was cooler and lighter, and the winds carried me into meditation. Air, the free-flowing element, expands the mind with imagination and awareness. As it swirled around my body, I felt my thoughts lift into realms of clarity and consciousness. To meet Fire, I ventured to Northeast Koguryo, where the ice beast roams among rivers of lava. I walked along the heat and felt its intensity rising, bursting with energy. Fire did not allow me to stand still and dwell on emotions-it demanded action, courage, and transformation. Its flames illuminated the need to act decisively and live with passion. Finally, I journeyed into the wilderness, where all four elements live together in abundance. I sat within the forest, the soil beneath me, surrounded by life. I felt the embrace of Earth-the patient, nurturing force that sustains and provides. Earth is diligence, usefulness, and endurance; it is the steady rhythm of life itself. As I meditated there, I felt one element calling me more strongly than the rest. In the quiet of the forest, grounded and sustained, I realized: Earth is the element with which I must align. TKNach | |
