About

Gravity's introduction, from the official game guide. Game guide Introduced in [Character] Introduction to Bard (2018-04-03).

Someone who especially loved singing in their leisurely free time and was skilled at writing poetry eventually came to find this profession.

The songs he sang gradually developed further until they finally came to hold magical power.

When he sang, the plants and trees would grow still, and beasts would gather by his side, quietly listening intently to his song.

His magically-imbued singing voice spread far and wide, eventually reaching the ears of King Tristan III of Rune-Midgarts. The king invited him to hear his song, was deeply moved, and requested that he join the ranks of adventurers, and so he came to join the ranks of adventurers.

Korean original

한가롭게 쉬는 시간에 특히 노래 부르기를 좋아하고 시를 잘 짓는 이가 마침내 이 직업을 찾기에 이르렀습니다.

그가 부르는 노래는 점점 발전하더니 마침내 마력을 담기에 이르렀습니다.

그가 노래를 부르면 초목이 잠잠해지고 짐승들이 그의 곁에 모여들어 그의 노래를 귀기울여 들으며 조용히 정숙을 지킬 정도였습니다.

그의 마력을 담은 노랫소리는 널리널리 퍼져 마침내 룬 미드가츠 국왕 트리스탄 3세의 귀에 들어가게 되고 국왕은 그를 초청하여 노래를 듣고 감명하여 그에게 모험가의 대열에서 활약해주기를 요청하게 되고 그렇게 그는 모험가의 대열에 참여하게 되었습니다.
