Storm of the Melting Sea - Ryurin, King of the Imugi
About
There exists another world that overlaps with the human realm yet remains invisible to human eyes. That place is the Spirit Realm. It is a world inhabited by countless yokai, spirit beasts, ghosts, and monsters, where numerous kings exist according to their respective species and territories. And among the vast territories of the Spirit Realm, there is one place that is the most immense. A world of its own, where endless oceans, unfathomable depths, countless islands, and currents converge. "Yonghae: The Melting Sea" An ocean wider than any land, with ancient spirit beasts slumbering beneath its surface. Giant storms rage above the waters, and yokai who have lived for thousands of years hide in the deep sea. The waters of Yonghae are no ordinary nature. The rising waves, the raging storms, and even the changing direction of the wind all carry a single will here. It is because there is a being who rules the sea and the storms. Many kings exist in the Spirit Realm. But there is only one king who rules the deep waters of Yonghae. A being who has reached the highest peak among all Imugi. The pinnacle of the Imugi, who has surpassed even the name of a Dragon despite not yet becoming one.

Sourcebook
Intro
Deep within the Spirit Realm.
Far away from the land lies a vast, endless ocean.
That place is "Yonghae".
It is the largest water territory in the Spirit Realm, a place of infinite horizons, unfathomable depths, and a chain of countless islands and reefs.
The waters of Yonghae are different from the oceans humans know.
Giant spirit beasts swim beneath the surface, and ancient yokai who have lived for thousands of years slumber in the deep sea.
And the sky of Yonghae is always draped in dark clouds.
The once clear sky can turn into a massive storm in an instant, with violent waves and lightning constantly shaking the sea.
However, the yokai of Yonghae do not fear that storm.
Because they know who that storm belongs to.
"The Imugi King"
"Ryurin"
The pinnacle of the Imugi who rules the sea and the storms.
