### Summary
The tragic history of Lokheun's parents is fully revealed through a vision, confirming that the story of a male sea "nymph" and his lover is, in fact, the story of her mother, Ayeon Baek, and her father. This depiction of a male-male romance in a predominantly straight manhwa has garnered significant reader attention, with some praising the inclusion of diverse sexualities while others critique the localization's choice of the word "nymph" for a male spirit. The chapter graphically portrays the violent revenge Lokheun's father enacted upon the cruel general who abused Ayeon, the very act that forced him into a life as a fugitive. As Lokheun witnesses the brutal truth of her family's past, readers express both sorrow for the star-crossed couple and anticipation for the main plot, speculating on the potential for Emperor Garyun to fall for Lokheun while still believing her to be a boy. Meanwhile, another character, the obsessive Lady Mirang, is noted for her "lifeless" eyes, hinting at future conflict.
