Third POV

Location: The Great Black Cliff , Iark.

"Is there something bothering you?" A quite frail looking old woman ask the Girl whose sitting right beside her , while helping her to recycle the straws.

"Ani" the  girl answer back without any hesitation lace in her voice.

"Sure?" The old woman,  Asa Hon , ask in doubt

".....ye"

"I see..."

A moment of silence

"......your not going persuade me, aren't you?" The child wants her, Asa Hon, to beg her to spil the tea and yet.

Pathetic

"Uh humm"

"I've never been  this low in my entire life"

"Sure, if that's what you say"

"You still don 't believe me, are you?" She was only met by silence,  A complete silence as a response.

"Wae...?" Knowing the child is talking about the another matter , she didn't even try to tore her gaze away from the straws.

"why can't you just believe me!? Why can't you just tell me , why everything feels so...." pausing her sentence,  the child directly look at asa hon .
Though the said woman is still remained unfaze about it.

"Everything....Feels so out of place..!why....why..?"

"...heh, whatever, you won't understand  me anyway " shaking her head, she reposition herself again, but more far from Asa Hon.

"If I tell you now..." startled by her sudden offer  , the child immediately whips her head to asa hon.

"What it is?"

"You....."

"Me?"

"...."

"What about me?"

"Promise me, after this one , you won't ask me anymore....arachi?"

"Ye"

"What do you want to know?"

"The question is what do you want me to know"

" Just ask me"

"Then....

When you told me before that you were hiding from something, aniya , its more like...you are hiding from someone named aramun. The question is,who is aramun and what is your reason from running away from him?"

"...."

"...I see , can't answer me?" Mocking Asa Hon, the older woman couldn't help to clench her teeth from her sudden flashbacks.

"Aramun.....

The founder of arthdal , once appeared in my dreams.

He said.....I should choose between my children and husband.

I couldn't risk my children's life , but then I found my husband body...." Sniffing her own tears , Asa Hon continues talk.

"Ragaz....The father of my children,  died , while his dead body was hung up to a tree.

He was mercilessly killed by those people.

They hunts for every last kind of Nweantal. Killing them on the spot.

At that day  I immediately knew what aramun means .

Out of fear , I run away from arthdal.
Setting my destination to Iark , A land where no god can bestow their authority" She looks at the child with longing eyes.

"Ragaz......He is like you"

"Like me?"

"You belong to his tribe , The great Nweantal tribe"

"Wow, I thought you'll never tell me" laughing sarcastically,  the child shakes her head in amusement

"It took you....mmmm.....three years just to tell me this kind of information?"

"...."

"Since We already got this far , How about you tell me what kind of tribe I belong and a few story about them?"

"I already did"

"Jinjja? You think I'm stupid?"

"..."

"See?you can't even--"

"I already did."

"Aniya....You just told me what kind of world is outside of this cave , you describe how beautiful it was.
You didn't tell me what kind of people and era is out there.

But now this is my chance. Since you don't want to share stories

Then , anwer this last question ,

Why?

You were hiding from someone but then....!

You pick me up somewhere and bring me with you.

Why though?

Why did you bring me with you ?

Does that even make sense? You guys are dying to survive but you just add me up? Am I that  special ?" She wheeze while clapping her hands , but it's not even funny.

Like a broken radio , every moment that she cherish began to play like a movie. Only worsening her bottle up emotions.

"Sigh Min-Yeong ah"

"YOU.....! Do you even know that I shouldn't be here....!?

This place......Is not where I belong to"

she couldn't control her emotions .

Damn this sensitive child

Who wouldn't?She is a human too, she can't just play dumb forever.

Three years.............Three years since she endure everything,
Three years of experience of her being powerless,
Three years of her without knowing anything at all.
Three years of her guessing she might not in her world anymore.
Three . freaking . whole years without any proper toilet to use.

The whole place is now cover by eerie atmosphere, Asa hon opens her mouth to speak but she was cut off.

"Listen---"

"I,Jeon Min-Yeong , Queen kingdom of Corea.

Ha. Ha. Ha. Ha .

That name....haAa......That......Title.......is nothing but a bunch of nonsense here.
How can I call myself a queen when I don't even have a proper bathroom or a house?

  Heh, bullshit!

You don't even have a clue about what I'm saying" her tears is staring to bud up, but she do her best to hold it, she can't just cry in front of someone because of dignity as a former queen but too many things has change.

However , She not that Queen anymore.

she's now nothing but a someone who can die anytime , defenseless.

"Min-Yeong...." laughing hysterically, she use her left fist to pound at her chest.

"What if I'm a queen.....?No one recognized me , No one knows me......No....one.....is searching for me! It's been three years since I arrive here and,and,and.....toilet doesn't even exist here"

"JEON MIN-YEONG!"

"Hic......Hic" Quietly cursing at her sensitive self she forcely covers her mouth, creating a bunch of child squick.

she tries to stop herself from crying but.....
it didn't change the fact ;
This new environment change her entire self.

"Listen my dear" Grabbing both of her shoulders, forcing the child to face her.
Slowly tracing her dirty looking hands, she gently put it down away from her blue dried up mouth.

"I don't know what you are talking about, but you need to pull yourself together, arachi?" Pushing back the strand of her hair behind her ears. She softly smile to the child.

"Ever since I found you, I know you are a very strange yet soft girl. Also a clever one at that , I may not be able to answer your question but someday you will found out , but until then......Set it aside and live a quiet life with us." She pat the child's head with care.

"A....Quiet life with you?"

"Ne, live a quiet life with us

And , How about this?" She wipes the tears in in the child's face, carefully touching her cheeks.

"Unghhh....hic" Embarrassed by her muffled voice, she avoid any eye contact from the woman.

"If you feel like everyone is leaving you behind......look above the sky and loudy shouts

'Naneun....!
Naneun sal geos-igo neohui moduga dulyeowo hal salam-i doel geos-ida!'

If you are still not satisfied, you can put your hand into your heart......ileohge......" she grabs the hand of the child , demonstrating what she wants her to do.

Scoffing at older women's doing, she looks away

"Stop it . I don't need that....what I need is a proper house to live on" she snatched her hands away from her grip before sitting at the small boulder, that is not too far ways from her.

Sighing at strange child behavior, the older woman could only get back to her previous work.

"Min-Yeong ah" she spoke up before three minutes can pass.

"Oh...?"

"Do this favor for me..." She didn't take her eyes away from the straws at her hand while saying this things.

"Why would I?" Raising her eyebrows at the woman Infront of her , she couldn't think any reason for her to do this.

"Just....do what I said, okay ?" Taking a deep breath, she once again put the straws down.

"There's three things that I would like you to do"

"The first thing is; Please......Protect Eunseom-ah if something bad will ever happen to me...."

"Wh---"

"Let me finish what I am saying before anything "

"...."

"Second thing is , someday.... i want you to call me eomma ......."

"Why wou----"

"Shhh my child" pointing out her index finger at her mouth, shushing at her.

"Third thing is....."

"Quite greedy , Aren't you?" Rolling her eyes at the sassy respond she received, she continues to tell her last request.

"I said shhh, the third thing I want you to do is"

"Just say it"

"I want you to live."

"What...?"

'Why I wouldn't want to live?Im the queen and no one can stop me from doing so.'

"Live for your present , not for your past or future

You need to live , For yourself...okay?

Don't waste your life , don't think about who are you before

Only think what you are now "

"What do you tak--"

"Just do it" With that , the little girl shut up falling into a deep thoughts.

Location : Sea of Tears

Three figures were slowly walking through the land named "Sea of tears" . The smaller woman doubt there's an end , who wouldn't? They been walking for hours and yet they didn't find any living thing.

A moment of silence before the young boy confronted his mother.

"eomma" you can clearly hear the pain in his voice when he calls for his mother.

"Hmmm"

"My...feet...its bleeding" showing her mother his bleeding feet , the smaller woman who's beside her can't help but to pity their situation. A hopeless situation.

"Ah.....get at my back, I'll carry you"

"..."

"PPalli, get at my back" hesitantly he place himself at the back of his mother , who just brushed it off and continues to walk.

The mother and son figure wasn't even that far from their former spot earlier, the older woman almost collapse.
Signing at their pathetic situation, the smaller woman hurriedly run in front of them , blocking their way to move.

"Get at my back" she squats in front of the woman while her hands resting on her knees.

"Aniya, it's ok" seems dissatisfied with her answer, she use her authoritative voice.

"Eunseom ah, get down to her back" obeying her, he got down quietly.

"eomeoni.....get at my back" she soften her voice , seems embarrassed what she just say to the older woman.

"...al-ass-eo, al-ass-eo" chuckling at her adorableness, she slowly get to her back .
After securing their position, she turn around where the another 'manggot' is staying.

"Eunseom ah , come here" immediately obeying her , he suddenly found himself into her arms. Carrying him in bridal style.

"Aren't you a strong one, ne?" Asa Hon teases the young girl, while poking Min-Yeong's cheeks.

"Just shut up and don't bother me " while older woman at her back can't stop from smiling and the child whose in her arms just shyly smile at her.

"Don't smile at me , it's creepy"

Min-Yeong carry the mother-son figure  until they reach the forest , She , the once Strong queen has finally collapsed .

She can't feel anything,  The lady at her back is also same scenario as her while the boy panicks,  he immediately run to find herbs that might help the two women.

Her feets is severely damage from the long walking , though the old woman beside seems to have more serious case.

Strange?It's not .

Asa Hon didn't walk , but she looks like she is about to die any second, Min-Yeong knows the reason why she seems frail and sick looking , But she decided to keep quiet about it.
Because she knows that she can't do anything to avoid it.

Warn sunlight, bird chirping and strong currents can be heard in the dreamy surface.

A large land where no one can measure its beauty , nor  steal its beauty. Everything is peaceful,  People whose happily interacting with each other
Freely Chatting without any care.
A village that only has countable people, but not far way from the village.
A lone tree house can be found.

Inside of a tree house is  where a group of men surrounding two people.
A man and Woman who are soundly asleep.
Though there is a little space between them but they still can't stop their skin from touching.

It can be considered a scandalous scene but many people know their relationship, and so, they just brushed it off.

"Shhh, quiet y'all will wake her up"

"And what?"

"neo babo aniya?"

"The last time we suddenly woke her up, We almost died"

"Right, but isn't it strange?"

"Ngnnnb" Out of panick , they covered each other mouth, afraid they woke the woman.

Sighing in relief, they feel like they survive a dangerous situation when they didn't wake her up.

"Shhh,shhh he's waking up"

"That's good, but be quiet, we might wake her up" They anxiously agre

"eomma" they back lean forward , to properly see the face of the lying man.

" eomma!" As if a cue , the young man who's in early twenties immediately sit up while the alluring woman beside him is still sleeping peacefully.

"Aigoooo...!"

"Kyahh! My gosh"

"Ha...ha....hAaa" the man breath heavily , desperately striving for air.

"What was that?"

"Shhhhh, quiet down! Or she'll wake up" one man whisper-shout to his friends, And fortunately the Said woman is Still unbothered by their sudden shout,  in return she scratchs her side face in annoyance before sleeping again.

A heavy sleeper,despite her reputation for being alert. She didn't wake up.

But not in his view, the man with purple lips looks , panicky shakes her body.

"Min-Yoeng ah wake up,wake up" he only shakes her more harder, finally stirring her from her sleep.

"....uh?" After realizing she's being surrounded by a group of men, she immediately sit up in comfortable position as her gaze direct look at the stressed man beside her.

The only soul who has guts to violate her.

(Bruh,that sounds kinky
👁👁)

"Is it true?" An old man walk from the group's behind.

"Answer me" The old man, known as the father of this tribe, Yeol-Son, Ask the both figure in front of him.

Set asiding his status , He only received a fierce glare which also caused the minions behind him to flinch.

"What do you all want?" Hearing her voice , The group of men immediately back away from her.

"E-Eunseom....!" Yeol-Son look at her for a second , before directing it to his objective. He also seems quite scared from the said woman.

Oh well, she might be innocent looking but her attitude tells otherwise
