Companions Arc
While other players were fervently searching the 7th layer for their companions, Kasumi searched for changes in her favorite 4th layer. At a tavern, she encountered a large frog she didn't remember. After mentioning a dangerous monster in a faraway land and seeing her interest, he gave her some tasks to prove her strength. Upon completing the tasks, she received a map to the Fog Valley in a Faraway Land.

After searching for a way to enter the valley and preparing to log out for the day, she stumbled into the valley. Shortly after entering, she became unable to move and was killed. After another attempt and being aware of how the valley worked, she used Mind's Eye and progressed toward a cave. Learning from Maple's crazy antics, Kasumi used explosives and her skills to propel herself inside the cave and avoid death. Deeper inside the cave, she found a small, white snake that climbed her body and became her companion. After returning to the guild, she named the snake Haku.
