Even If You Got Dropped In A Ghost Story, You Still Go To Work: A visual primer for English speakers

This took me a week. I did this for ORV like 4 years ago so it felt like my moral obligation to make one again.

Some notes on character designs and images without text:

Gorals and domestic goats look very different, but in Manor of the Blind attention is put into how these two are similar and contrasting, the truly noble Go Yeongeun with the white goat and the sinister Baek Saheon with the black goat. I also picked a literal goral instead of a mountain goat (which are naturally white) because gorals look more like roe deers than goats, making the 3 of them more closely linked.

I always thought it was a shame most fanartists don't give Baek Saheon darling 90s curls because that's one of the only traits he explicitly has and is tied into how harmless he looks at first glance and it's adorable

Because this is a horror novel and unnatural features aren't mentioned, I tried to keep this as grounded as possible. Mowing through these anime designs. I don't think J3 is an idol with hair in his eyes. I think he just looks like a very tired guy of ambiguous age

Another hardliner of of grounded designs is Jin Nasol, who gets the most ostentatious anime character treatment besides Jay in fanart. She is coldly utilitarian and prizes efficiency over all else, there is no way that woman has bangs

I am not giving Park Minseong brown hair. There is nothing wrong with a good warm black

Lee Jaheon is often depicted as an adorable little newt in fanart, but a huge part of why he is so hysterical is that he is scary, so I picked more intimidating lizard traits so he functions in both dramatic heroic scenes and eating granola bars with the wrappers still on. He gets to keep the newt mask though

I gave Braun white gloves at first but I saw a Braun cosplayer and a demon possessed me. I have no idea what colour is canon. who doesnt love black leather

Making Jang Heo-un the "sharp eyes meek personality" trope made my brain light up so good. I was trying to contrast with the relaxed eyes of the easygoing Park Minseong to make them more obviously different but this feels cosmically correct

You can use these pics for whatever you want. ⬆️

Hi!! Thank you for all your posts that help translate/explains things in GSGW! I've been wondering if the translation "Wish Ticket" is accurate? It has always seemed a little strange to me, since Daydream makes potions, and all the others are still called potions. Is there some meaning being lost there, or is it really called that in Korean?

Thank you so much!

Hi,

Outside of GDCG, 소원권 in everyday life is usually the word for a homemade coupon you give to your friends and/or loved ones. It's supposed to be like a cutesy gift, a 'you get one wish out of me for free!' type of thing. For those I'd say a more accurate translation would be 'Wish Coupon'.

Below is the google img search result for '소원권' which might give you an idea of how it's used in everyday context.

So GDCG is playing on this pre-existing concept, by making this 'wish coupon' an actual magical potion that grants your wishes.

Daydream Inc. and the Skeleton in its Basement (CRI), an Analysis

Spoilers for parts 1 and 2 of the novel!

So I’ve been wondering this for a while: Why was Cheong working with the CRI remnant to create a GF body for Soleum? What’s in it for her? And then the answer hit me in the face: to create workers out of ghost stories capable of collecting Dream Essence. Because, isn’t that what Soleum is? A ghost story entity summoned into a body capable of being identified or treated as a human by Dream Collectors and therefore able to bring back Dream Essence from darknesses.

And what’s better? If this body dies or gets lost, just make a new one and summon the same or a different entity to work for you! Remember, by accepting the summoning, the summoned creature automatically accepts the contract for summoning. And this contract can be edited to suit Cheong’s needs. Such as being employed for life, for example. Or absolutely obedience to Cheong/Daydream. <- the contract isn’t foolproof, as seen with Braun, but it’s significantly easier to apply to other entities. Cheong doesn’t need the other party to read and sign a paper contract, they accept just by agreeing to the summoning.

So not only are your possible employees now near limitless, they might also come with their own special darkness related abilities! You don’t even need to equip them with tools to make them useful. No need to waste regeneration potions on them! And they’re probably naturally resistant to other forms of contamination, so they don’t need to be treated delicately or be maintained.

You could even recycle old Daydream employees using this method. The process this is based on successfully summoned a darkness entity that used to be a human being as a human being. Who’s to say the same can’t happen with members of the security team?

So of course this would be research Cheong would be interested in and invest in it.

After all, that CRI researcher was using massive amounts of Dream Essence for their tests. Even recycling old Daydream darknesses and the remains of their entities. Where else would they get those resources if not from the very director of the building they’re working under?

It’s unlikely for the CRI researcher to know the full truth of what happened in Sekwang if they were outside it at the time of the incident. It’s all too easy for Cheong to have approached them with a warped version of the story, she’s someone they trust and have worked with, after all. Maybe they only found out the truth later, after they were fully invested in the experiment. Maybe they only realized what she wanted after succeeding, when she discovered their success before they could proceed with the contract and QnA.

Anyways, dunno if anyone else thought of this, started reading well after 208 and took a break while waiting for part 3 lol.
