Overview
Seo Hweol was the personification of Tainted Soul Filling the Heavens and an innate Sacred Vessel.
He was created through Ja Eum's Purple Soul Filling the Heavens, but his essence was corrupted through Agate's Hatred Dream.
Appearance
Seo Hweol was described as a handsome middle-aged man or a handsome young man, having deer-like horns and either a top-knot or open blue hair. He always wore a gentle smile on his face, and was fond of laughing with a "hohoho". He usually had a calm disposition around him.
Personality
Outwardly Seo Hweol is the Sea Dragon King loved and respected by all, wearing a gentle smile in whatever situation may arise, when the ascendants had a conflict, just his words were enough to stop them, whom (aside from Mad Lord), all came to pay respect to him.
However, such personality is merely a façade. According to the Mad Lord, Seo Hweol's heart is dead, with him hiding behind a thick mask of lies and deceptions.
His true nature was seen after Eun-hyun glimpsed at his heart essence:
"Beyond heartless and shameless, his heart essence seems like a monster wearing a human mask.
Evil (惡).
He is the embodiment of endless malice."
After he successfully assimilated Seo Ran, Seo Hweol could only feel endless Hatred. However, after Oh Hye-seo accepted all of him, he realized he had denied his own existence by denying the heart. He killed himself for Oh Hye-seo's sake, passing on all of his "past" and knowledge to her.
