[Scene: Overlooking the castle of the Kingdom of Kouka. Yona is fixing

[Action: King Il enters the room.]
Yona Father! What about the ceremony?
King Il As you can see, it’s over.
Yona Oh no… I’m sorry, I…
King Il Hahaha! Well, no matter. It was merely a formality. There is
no need for you to appear before the people.
Yona Um, Father… Isn’t there something odd about my hair?
King Il Of course not! Your beauty surpasses that of any jewel --
Yona Yes, that of my face! I believe I was born with quite a cute face.
But why is this hair so red and unruly?
Grr! It won’t behave at all!
King Il That isn’t true at all. Right, Hak?Hak Yes, King Il.
Who would ever say that the princess’s hair looks strange?
If anything is not right, it would be her brain.
Yona Quite, knave!
Father, do something about this impertinent cretin!

[Action: Yona throws the tea cup at Hak. He catches it easily.]
Hak Yona Speaking of lovable… Shouldn’t you be trying to look lovable
yourself?
Huh?
Hak It seems Lord Soo-Won has arrived.
Yona Y-You should have said so sooner!
[Action: Yona begins walking out of the room.]
King Il Soo-Won? Is that why you were concerned about your hair?
But why now?

Soo-
Won
Yona Next time, I’ll strike dead center, as well.
I’m going to do archery with Soo-Won, too!

Soo-

Please… you’re mistaken.
There have been a few discussions of engagement, but…
Yona Engagement?!
Soo-
Won
Oh, but nothing is decided yet…
Let’s not talk about this, okay?
There’s no need for you to know.
Yona (Thoughts) Treating me like a child again…
I-I’ve had offers of engagement, too!
Soo-
Won
Yona What? With whom?
Hak, for one!Hak Huh?
Yona (Thoughts) Idiot! Of all the names to give him, Hak makes it too obvious!

I think that sounds nice.
Congratulations!
[Scene: In the palace after the horse riding session. Yona laments while
being waited on by Min-Soo. Hak and King Il are also present.]
Yona You’re cruel!
You’re too cruel, Soo-Won! How could you believe that lie?!
Hak You’re the cruel one. You’re also a nuisance.
King Il Your marriage may not be a lie after all.
Yona What?
King Il It would only be natural for you to be betrothed by now.

Soo-Won is the son of my Father’s brother, Yoo-Hong.
He is of royal blood.
King Il True… But it is my duty as king to choose my heir.
Yona Why? Soo-Won is a fine man.
You’re a cowardly king who is too afraid to touch a weapon.
King Il I am indeed a cowardly king.
Your mother was captured and killed by insurgents.
Such dangers go hand in hand with being part of a king’s family.
That is why I have found no desire to take a new wife.
Yona, you want Soo-Won to be happy, do you not?
Yona I don’t understand. I don’t understand, Father.
[Scene: Yona sits alone outside the room under protection from rain.]Yona Does that mean it’s all right for the man I marry to meet with misfortune?
Am I not allowed to be happy?
But it’s true. Even if Father allowed it, in Soo-Won’s eyes, I’m still the sam

and closes the door.] Soo-
There’s no one there.

Yona That can’t be! I…
(Thoughts) He ran away…
(Thoughts) A castle guard would have said something…
[Action: Soo-Won notices how shaken Yona is from the incident.]
Soo-
Won
Yona Yona!
(Thoughts) Was he targeting me? Because I’m the king’s
daughter?
Yona.
Soo-

[Action: Soo-Won wraps his cloak around Yona.]
Soo-
Won
Yona It’s all right. I’m here.
Soo-Won…
No. I can’t be with you.
Soo-
Won
Yona Why not?
Because…
(Thoughts) If you stay with me, you’ll be in danger.
[Action: Soo-Won gets up to leave.]
Soo-
Won
If you would rather be with Hak, I will take you to his quarters.
He is your betrothed, isn’t he?
Yona That’s not…
Soo-
Won
You don’t need to hide it.
Hak would be angry if he knew the two of us were alone here.Yona (Thoughts) No… Soo-Won, that’s not it…
(Thoughts) You don’t have to turn around… So…
Soo-Won, I have always…
(Thoughts) So I can love you, can’t I?
Soo-

away.] Soo-

I may make a mistake.
Yona What?
Soo-

Yona That is, a moment ago, it sounded as if you were saying that
you…
And if that weren’t a mistake?
If it weren’t a mistake, would that upset you?
Soo-
Won
I can’t let this happen.
I can’t let myself see you as a woman.
Yona What was I until now then?
Soo-
Won
Yona Huh? Oh, well… A younger sister, perhaps?
I knew that!
Soo-
Won
R-Right…
I’m sorry. I am unfamiliar with things like this…
Yona (Thoughts) Soo-Won is turning red…
So you lied about your engagement?Soo-
Won
I just meant such discussions have come up.
I’m not engaged yet.
Yona Soo-Won, do I look like a woman to you?
Soo-
Won
At the very least, I could not sleep holding hands with you anymore.
My nerves would prevent me from sleeping.
Yona Well, that’s fine.
If you’ve given me even the slightest consideration, that’s enough for now
Soo-
Won
Yona Yona…
(Thoughts) Father, I still love Soo-Won.

I’m sorry to bring you out here.
I thought it would suit you, so I wanted to give it to you personally.
Yona My hair… is red and unruly, and it won’t behave at all.
This wouldn’t look right on me.
Soo-
Won
What? But I love your hair, Yona.
It’s a beautiful red, like the sky at dawn.
Yona (Thoughts) How simple am I?
(Thoughts) Just like that, I suddenly love my own hair.

each other.] Yona Hak?!
Hak His Majesty is looking for you.
Yona Is he? Tell him I’m resting in my room.
Hak Well, I figured this is what was going on.
Soo-
Won
Huh?Hak I’m sure you could persuade the king, Lord Soo-Won.
Soo-
Won
You misunderstand, Hak.
And would you stop speaking so formally?
Just call me Soo-Won, like you used to.

More importantly, do you not sense something?

I’ve already spoken to the elder.

You should live quietly here.
Yona I don’t remember allowing you to leave alone.
You told me to use you as a tool to live.
Hak I returned the name of “Son”.
I’m no longer a general or your servant.
I’m about to leave on a free journey. I don’t have to take care of you.

Hak By the way, Princess, if we must search every corner of this
area, we’ll have to sleep outside. What should we do?
Yona Sleep outside? I’ve gotten somewhat used to it.
Hak Unlike the mountains behind the castle, it gets cold here.
Yona Then I’ll snuggle against you while I sleep.

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.

Ik-soo Yoon…Yoon Ik-soo, I bet you don’t know that, to me, your words are absolute.
So if you order me to go, I’ll go.
It must be God’s will for me, right?
Besides, you seem like you’ll be totally fine without me now!
Ik-soo There is strength in words…
Yoon Huh?
Ik-soo Sometimes, they become words of power.
I thought that if I said I’m fine, then I really would be fine.

Hak I see that dragons are weaker than insects.
Kija N-No! I just dislike creepy, crawly creatures!
I have been granted the proud, divine strength of the White Dragon!
It isn’t like that of ordinary men.

Yeah. Hak is strong.
He protects me all the time now, but someday, I want to protect him.
Kija You are strong, despite living in the castle your whole life.
Yona I’m not strong.
Kija But you weren’t that shaken by the bandits.
Yona You’re right. I’m not afraid of bandits.
Nothing could terrify me more than that night.
Yoon Hey!
Kija Ah…

Yona Heh… Let’s go.

King Hiryuu.

up some food with his chopsticks.]
Kija What is this?
Yoon It’s dinner. Is there a problem?
Kija Yoon Dinner? These are the weeds that were growing on the
mountain path!
They aren’t weeds! They’re mountain vegetables you can eat.
You should be grateful I didn’t add any insects.Kija Insects? You eat insects?
Yoon Insects are nutritious.
Kija Are you all right with this food, Princess?
Yona I still can’t eat bugs, but I’ve gotten used to most of it.
After all… I can’t afford to dislike it.
But since Yoon arrived, the food has gotten better!

Kija Princess, allow me to perform this menial task.
Hak White Snake, don’t butt in at the good part.
Kija How dare you allow the princess to feed you.
Yoon If you’ve finished eating, I’d like to discuss the Blue Dragon’s location.
Kija, can you sense the Blue Dragon?
[Action: Kija closes his eyes and points in a general direction.]
Kija I feel something over there.
Yoon Yeah, okay. Sorry to bother you.
Kija Huh?
Yoon Kija Does the Blue Dragon have a village like the White Dragon,
or does he live alone?

Ik-soo said the other dragons move around.
The Blue Dragon’s clan must have moved somewhere.
Kija is pointing east-northeast toward the Fire Tribe’s land.
I’d say there are about six locations where the village might be.

There are only about six other places that are infrequently travelled and

Hak And someone has to stay outside and watch for the villagers.
I’m the only one left, so I have to do it?
Yona Because I know I can depend on you.
I’ll be careful not to let anything like that happen again.
Hak Ngh…
Yona Hak?
[Action: Hak pulls Yona closer to him.]
Yona Ah…
Hak Yona This time, come back. Otherwise, I’ll stick annoyingly close to

Hak Yes, please do.Yona Fufu~!

What a creepy bunch.

Hak I’ll just have to intimidate them.
[Scene: In the cave. Yona leads the way with Yoon and Kija following.]
Yoon Yona Princess, you’re actually a bit scared without the Thunder
Beast, aren’t you?
Yoon, don’t say that!
When Hak’s around, I rely on him too much.
Yoon Doesn’t the Thunder Beast want you to rely on him?
Yona Yes, but Hak actually served my late father.
He’s still following my father’s orders.
Yoon I don’t think that’s the only reason…
Yona Hak didn’t like being a general or a bodyguard.
I can’t do it yet, but someday, I’d like to set Hak free.[Action: Yona, Yoon, and Kija reach the end of the cave.]
Yoon Huh? The dead end has a hidden passage?
Yona Yes.
[Action: Yona touches the wall, and the hidden passage opens.]
Kija Ah…!
[Action: Kija turns around. He sees a shadowy figure behind the group.]
Yoon Woah! It’s open! How interesting!
Kija, let’s go.
Yona What’s wrong?
Kija Yona Oh, nothing… The Blue Dragon is in there. I’ll wait out here.
You two go ahead.
Huh? Why?
[Action: Kija and Yoon give each other a knowing look.]
Yoon It’s all right. This handsome genius knows the way.
Kija I’m counting on you.
Yoon Got it.
[Action: Yona and Yoon head into the secret passageway.]
Kija Now, then… What do you want to do in this narrow space?
[Action: Several men confront Kija.]
Man We cannot allow those who follow that path to leave.

[Action: Jae-ha prepares to jump into the ocean.]
Yona Jae-ha…
Jae-ha Ah…
[Action: Jae-ha runs to the other side of the cliff to find Yona hanging off
a tree root.] Jae-ha Yona!
Yona Ugh… Ngh…
Jae-ha Are you okay? I’ll save you!
Yona No!
Jae-ha Ah…
Yona If you help me now, then my promise to Captain Gi-gan…
Jae-ha You’re unbelievable…
[Action: More waves begin to crash against the cliffs.]
Jae-ha Ah…
[Action: Jae-ha gets Yona up from the cliffside.]
Yona Ngh…
Jae-ha Ahh…
Yona Jae-ha?
Jae-ha You know, you’re incredible.
You manage to leave me breathless.
Yona I needed your help, after all…Jae-ha Don’t get the wrong idea.
Yona Huh?
Jae-ha Yona Treating women with the greatest care is one of my
principles.
Ah… Heh… Fufufu!
Jae-ha What are you laughing about?
Yona You were ready to jump into the sea to save me. Thank you.
Jae-ha Ahh… Don’t tell the captain.
Yona Huh? But…
Jae-ha It’s that.
[Action: Jae-ha points to Yona’s satchel containing the senjusou.]
Yona Ah…
Jae-ha Yona You picked and protected the senjusou yourself. You kept
your promise to the captain.
Ahh…
Jae-ha Yona What I did was just a bonus. You don’t need to tell the captain
about it.
I haven’t done anything yet.
I need to take this back to the others.
Jae-ha Mm…
[Scene: At the top of the cliff. Yona’s group, Gi-gan, and her pirates look
out toward the cave where the senjusou grows.]
Yoon So, the senjusou grows here?
Kija Ah… Ahh… Ahh…
Gi-gan I told you it was a sheer cliff.
Yoon Yeah, but it’s too steep! This is crazy! The waves are choppy,
and the wind could blow Yona away!Kija I shall go rescue her!
Gi-gan Wait!
Yoon,
Kija
Gi-gan Ah…
That girl accepted this job to earn my trust. Are you willing to
crush her resolve beneath your feet?
Kija But if something happened to her…!
