[Action: Yoon stands up. Yona grabs his wrist.]Yona Ah… Save Hak! Yoon I’m working on it. I don’t want him dying on me. But I’m not a doctor. Don’t just assume I’ll save him. Yona Ah…! Yoon You still haven’t thanked me for saving you. And what about him? Have you ever thanked him? He nearly died to protect you.

I just look after that useless priest who can’t look after himself. Long ago, priests had greater influence than even the king. Yona Than even the king?Yoon Yeah. They were revered as messengers of the gods. Priests were deeply involved in ruling the kingdom, and sometimes, they wars. One priest even deposed a king, saying he had angered the gods. So priests became a problem for the king. During King Joo-nam’s reign, Kouka Kingdom was expanding into other territories and growing stronger. Apparently, Prince Yu-hon’s achievements played a major role. For Yu-hon, the priests that could threaten a king’s power were a nuisan Yona So that’s why my uncle drove the priests from the castle.

[Action: Yona begins to tear up. Hak squats down to her level.] Yona I wouldn’t cry over that. Hak Oh? Yona Where were you? Hak I was looking for this. Yona Then you should have woken me! Hak Ah… I understand. You can’t sleep alone. Shall I sleep next to you? Here. Yona You fool! Hak Huh? Yona You’re injured… Hak Now I’m a fool?Yona Hak You’re behaving recklessly when you’re a total wreck. I thought you were going to die. Ah… Yona Don’t go off without saying anything!

You are our pride and reason for livi You shine brighter than all the White Dragons that came before you. Kija Haa… But I feel impatient. When am I supposed to use this power and for what purpose?Granny When the time comes, you will use it for that person. Your late father and mother watch over you now. It’s possible this era doesn’t need your power. However, I’m sure the next White Dragon and the one after that will also their masters, where you, perhaps, could not.

Yona When a child is born with the power of the White Dragon, the dragon’s b from the previous White Dragon.
