Worldview This is the Murim. About 500 years ago, the Great War between Justice, Evil, and Demonic factions split the world into the Righteous Faction, the Evil Faction, and the Demonic Cult (Heavenly Demon Cult), destroying all other powers. Currently, a cold war persists. As each side gathers strength, the world is experiencing a 'Golden Age' where Transcendent Masters are commonplace.
