Hunting Grounds
Gracia and Seeds
- The new hunting grounds 'Seed of Destruction' and 'Seed of Infinity' have been added in the Gracia continent.

- The seeds, which were constructed in various places in the continent, are structures of a different world. These structures have been summoned by descendants of the Shilen worshippers who were excommunicated to Gracia. In order to fight the exhiled, the human race has allied with the Gracia Lord and Keucereus to form the Keucereus Alliance.
