The Last Star.
Everyone, whether Phantom or common man, child or old man, baker or long-serving military man, had heard of the Last Star.
It was the brightest star in the sky, majestic and magical.
According to the legend that mothers told their children as a bedtime story when the Last Star fell from the sky, it marked the beginning of a new world.
This was the basic theory followed by Phantoms, Operators, government officials, and ordinary people, regardless of age.
When the Last Star fell, the energy, monsters, anomalies, artifacts, essences, and everything that Adam and the Phantoms of his level knew at this point came into existence.
However, ordinary people knew about Phantoms and monsters as well. Even Adam, a slum dweller knew what artifacts were, how dangerous monsters were, and what Phantoms did.
The only thing Adam knew more about the Last Star than anyone else was the Midnight Crystals. He needed one of them to become a K2-Phantom.
