Chapter 1110: Unchanging Thoughts (1)
As Jo Yi-shin continued to play Plmago and met many people in this world, gradually discovering events tied to the mythological age of the “Gaechun” (the time of creation), his growing doubts became more apparent.
Why did the lamenting “Wungnyeo” (the great woman of sorrow) make such a choice?
If the fake had merely imitated the lamenting Wungnyeo and orchestrated things, then Jeokho (the main male character) would have recognized it, or Eun Ho or Huang Jiho would have been able to find the fake and prove the innocence of the beloved couple.
Therefore, the one who asked to break the Hoshin Chong (a sacred object) had to have been the real Wungnyeo.
"But the fact that the lamenting Wungnyeo loved Jeokho is beyond doubt."
When you observe the actions of the Wungnyeo after Jeokho’s death, it becomes clear.
Players of Plmago speculated that Wungnyeo only realized her true love after Jeokho died, which led her to make those drastic actions.
I had a slightly different perspective.
“There’s something odd about the idea that Wungnyeo wanted to achieve the Celestial God’s annihilation by betraying Jeokho. Among the true Wungpalseon (the eight legendary figures), the only one who actively cooperated with the hidden forces was the Gom (the bear) of despair."
If she had betrayed Jeokho and almost destroyed Hoshin Chong, she would have been acknowledged and could have become an executive of the hidden forces or the new leader of the Wung family, but Wungnyeo did not choose that path.
Instead, she worked as an item maker, accumulating funds and connections, which she used for research on the Cheonching (the celestial scales).
There could be an interpretation that her research on the Cheonching was meant to erase the Celestial God, but if that were the case, it would be strange that she didn’t receive help from the hidden forces during the process.
