Zhong Kui is more than a demon queller

Across paintings, stories and seasonal customs, Zhong Kui has been invoked to expel harmful forces, guard homes, confront epidemics and invite good fortune.

Those traditions are cultural context—not a shortcut to the game's unannounced plot. This guide labels the boundary every time the two appear together.
