Rune-Midgard scientists were dispatched to investigate the strange sound, only to find dimensional cracks that lead to an alternate plane of existence deep within the castle. Always curious about paranormal phenomena, the Cat-hand agents have offered to help maintain the dimensional cracks which lead to what is now known as the Hall of Abyss.

After heated debate between the Rune-Midgarts Kingdom and Cat-hand agents, it was decided that the Hall of Abyss will be open to the cities that contribute the most to an investment fund...

The number of castles per realm has been reduced to four. Available castles: [Valkyrie Realm], [Balder Realm], [Britoniah Realm], and [Luina Realm].

Cat-hand agents have been deployed to realms and individual castles to collect investment during a specific period of time after WoE has ended.
