This page discusses the world and mythology of Shiren The Wanderer.

Here are a few theories:

  1. How does Shiren get back to the Canyon Hamlet when he dies? Answer: Koppa. His pet weasel is his spirit animal. When Shiren dies, Koppa carries Shiren's soul back to the Canyon Hamlet. There, Shiren wakes up to make another attempt at Table Mountain. Now, you ask, how does his body get back to Canyon Hamlet? This is where it gets weird. Koppa tears Shiren's body into little pieces and carries them back one by one. That's why Shiren is back to level one and he's lost all his equipment.
  2. Canyon Hamlet is a spiritual prison. The only thing to do in Canyon Hamlet is eat your riceball and look at your possessions that's you've acquired. There is no growth and no prosperity in Canyon Hamlet. You don't gain anything from the people. You only have the same conversations over and over again. The only way to thrive is to leave the static comfort of the hamlet. Sure, it's dangerous out there. But it's the only place where you can grow and learn! Even when you return to Canyon Hamlet by choice, the evil place strips you of your power.
  3. The real villain is the shopkeeper. He must be in league with the monsters. How else can he get to the deepest parts of the dungeons? Apparently he can get the best gear from the most dangerous areas. Even one attempt to steal will demonstrate how strong he is. IF YOU COULD KILL THE SHOPKEEPER WOULD YOU WIN THE GAME?
