I...

must have caught two.

After all, my first love and I...

ended up married twice.

I...

I am so sorry.

At a time like this,

you should not be on your knees.

You should be holding me.

Like you will never let go.

The river water must have been freezing.

Your life must have been equally cold after that.

I am truly sorry.

I lived better than you think, Your Royal Highness.

I laughed often.

And there were times I was so happy I could barely breathe.

I, Park Dal, lived a pretty wonderful life.

So when you pity me like this,

what does that make my last five years?

A life is a life, however short.

No.

It is not pity.

I am just so very sorry.

And please stop speaking to me so formally.

It is awkward.

How can I go back to speaking to you so casually?

Do not treat me like Crown Princess Gang Yeon Wol.

Treat me like Park Dal.

Just like you always have.

It is not as if all my memories have returned.

And compared to that hazy past,

the five years I lived as Park Dal feel so much more real.

- But... - Besides,

what if someone were to hear you?

We must be careful, for both of us.

Okay?

You were right beside me,

and I was too foolish not to recognize you.

What right do I have to argue? From now on,

everything will be as you wish, Dal.

But...

I am suddenly curious about something.

Is it Gang Yeon Wol?

Or Park Dal?

Well...

- What are you... - Come on.

I am just asking.

Which one of us do you like more?

And for the record, you cannot say both.

I mean, what kind of...

Is it that hard of a question?

What right does a fool like me have to say anything?

I will do as you wish, Dal.

Trying to weasel your way out of it?

I am a fool. What right do I have?

I will do as you wish, Dal.

Are you okay?

Oh, no. Are you hurt?

Does a fool like me even have the right to be okay?

I will do as you wish, Dal.

You scared me. Gosh.

This fool...

is going to do as he pleases just this once.

Elder!

Elder!

What is this?

When one red string of fate goes awry,

the others are bound to follow.

It seems that fool still has not given up.

He does not even realize he is turning into a monster.

Hong Nan of Eunwol Pavilion...

asked me to tell the Head Eunuch she is with Yeon Wol of Gang family.

Yeon Wol of the Gang family, you say?

I heard Hong Nan has an older brother.

Is he that runaway eunuch?

How could you know that?

(Life)

I heard The Nameless tattoo themselves with "life."

Please save me.

So, Your Highness,

you must not be swayed by pity or curiosity.

If his goal was to become the King's in-law,

he should have just killed me back in the Gyesa Year.

Rather than the Crown Princess,

it would have been far easier to kill the wife of a grand prince.

The timing is strange too.

- You must come with us. - Let go of me!

Considering I was deposed not long after that,

at my mother's grave that day,

I must have seen something I should not have.

What in the world is on Mount Gamak?

Your Highness, it is Yeon Sim.

Come in.

I found a letter outside your chambers.

(Chapter 12: The Woman in White)

Hey! What do you think you are doing, you brutes?

Arrest the traitors who abandoned their posts and fled the palace!

- Let me go, you scoundrel! - Open the door!

- Arrest them! - Yes, sir!

- Well, I knew this day would come. - My goodness.

- Goodness! - That girl...

Hong Nan!

Goodness! Hong Nan!

You can try to cover the moon, but do you think you can hide?

Protect them.

For getting you both involved in this,

I am deeply sorry.

What are you talking about?

We are the ones at fault.

- Why are you the one apologizing? - That is right.

Do not be silly. I may have been prickly,

but I was sorry,

and I was always grateful for you, Hong Nan.

My dear.

If by some chance...

there is a next life,

I hope you will...

still find me one more time.

I will be reborn a rich nobleman,

and I will give you so much wealth, enough to build a mountain with it.

Promise me...

to find me one more time.

Gosh.

Meet again?

But if we do happen to meet again,

then I...

will not raise my voice or lose my temper.

I will treat you right.

Stop!

Stop.

Stop the execution!

- What? - Dal. It is Dal.

Out of my way.

- Dal. - Father. Mother.

- Auntie. - Dal.

Is it you?

By what authority did you sentence these people to death?

They are the fugitive Senior Court Lady and Eunuch.

And her crime is hiding the fugitives.

Well,

they are my family.

I will explain it all to His Majesty,

so please stop the execution.

That is not the answer.

Reveal your true identity.

If I answer that question,

Dal!

will you let them go?

What do you mean her true identity?

She is Park Dal!

You are and always will be...

- Park Dal! - Right! We were on borrowed time.

Five years felt like a dream, and that was enough for us.

Dal.

Dal.

Having you with me...

was the greatest gift, my daughter.

I feel the same way.

Our daughter.

Do not cry.

Okay?

Carry out the execution!

Stop!

I am...

I am the Deposed Crown Princess Gang.

The Deposed Crown Princess?

The Deposed...

The Deposed Crown Princess. Yes, it is her.

Dal!

What did you just say?

- No! It is not true! - No!

- Dal, no! - Dal, why are you doing this?

Dal!

- Dal! - Dal!

Did you not hear me?

I am the Deposed Crown Princess Gang.

Gang Yeon Wol.

Now that you have the answer you wanted,

arrest me.

Stop the execution.

Arrest the criminal, the Deposed Crown Princess Gang.

- Yes, sir! Arrest her! - Yes, sir!

No!

- Dal. - No...

- Dal! - No! What are you doing?

- No. Dal. - No!

- No! Dal! - Dal!

- Your Royal Highness! - Your Royal Highness!

- Your Royal Highness! - Your Royal Highness!

Your Majesty! The Deposed Crown Princess was to die.

For her to be alive is an act of high treason.

The Deposed Crown Princess disrespected the Royal Family.

I implore you to order her execution!

- Order her execution! - Order her execution!

She dared to hide her identity and enter the palace,

bringing contempt upon the Royal Family.

I implore you to order her execution!

- Order her execution! - Order her execution!

You, of all people, know that Dal is innocent.

Please help her.

There is no way to prove the Crown Princess's innocence.

Not unless the person who truly killed the Queen confesses.

In the end, nothing has changed from five years ago.

Then and now, you are what is most important to me.

- Your Majesty! - Your Majesty!

The Royal Concubine, who defied my edict and escaped...

No, the Deposed Crown Princess Gang...

is hereby sentenced to death by strangulation.

- As you command, Your Majesty! - As you command, Your Majesty!

No, you cannot do this. You cannot do this, Your Majesty.

Left Flank Guard and Eunuch Yoon,

take the Crown Prince to his palace.

- Yes, Your Majesty. - You cannot do this, Your Majesty!

Let me go! Please do not do this!

Please spare the Crown Princess's life!

Please do not do this! You cannot do this, Your Majesty!

Spare the Crown Princess' life! Let me go!

Are you satisfied now?

Your grace is...

immeasurable, Your Majesty.

- Your grace is immeasurable, - Your grace is immeasurable,

- Your Majesty! - Your Majesty!

What are you talking about?

The Royal Concubine is the Crown Princess?

I know. I did not believe it either.

But tons of people saw it. At that crowded execution ground,

the Royal Concubine herself...

claimed to be the Deposed Crown Princess Gang.

Prepare my official robes.

Yes, sir.

If the Royal Concubine is really the Deposed Crown Princess,

what is going to happen to her now?

I heard His Majesty ordered her executed by strangulation.

The Royal Concubine...

No, if the Deposed Crown Princess dies again,

the Crown Prince will be completely broken.

Are you worried about His Highness?

I am worried about myself.

If the Crown Prince falls, then no one can stop my father,

and no one will find Deok Chun for me.

Tell them to bring my ceremonial wedding attire.

Your Highness.

The Crown Princess's family returned to Unjeong Palace.

They are all safe.

Good. That is a relief.

But what about the Crown Princess? What do we do now?

Give the order, Your Highness, and I will break her out of prison.

No!

One reckless move, and we will lose Dal all over again.

You must not get worked up.

You must not do anything reckless, Your Highness.

Please take care of my family for me.

This is just like what happened five years ago.

We must be extremely cautious.

Your Highness.

Grand Prince Je Un is here to see you.

Did you come because you heard the news about Dal?

Yes, but there is something strange going on.

Strange? How so?

I was at the Royal Office of Attire. U Hui asked for the wedding attire.

- Is it ready? - Yes, Your Highness.

Yeo Ri will help me. The rest of you may leave.

My lady. Please step outside for a moment.

We will call you if we need any help.

- But... - Please just go.

It was always going to end this way.

You took quite the detour to get here.

What are you going to do with me now?

You will be sentenced to death by strangulation shortly.

If you kill me,

do you think the Crown Prince will simply do nothing?

His Highness?

What could he possibly do?

At my mother's grave that day,

I must have seen something I should not have.

What in the world is on Mount Gamak?

Mount Gamak.

I know exactly what you are hiding on Mount Gamak.

If I die here today,

the Crown Prince will reveal your secret.

After all, His Majesty and His Highness...

were already considering giving up the throne.

With nothing left to lose, they will not hesitate to expose you.

Who do you think stands to lose more?

Your Highness.

You seem intent on digging your own grave over this.

So there really is something there.

I have to get this information to His Royal Highness.

Do you not think you are reading too much into a simple fitting?

This is a woman who shot me in the heart...

to avoid the Royal Wedding,

Now she is volunteering to be fit. You do not find that odd?

There really is a note.

Impressive deduction.

What does it say?

I will escape the Detached Palace. Please send help.

I will create a diversion to distract my father.

So use that chance to help the Royal Concubine escape.

When you are ready, signal with a cuckoo call.

I will do it.

The Crown Princess Consort could be in danger.

She is my woman.

I will not let her get hurt.

All right.

- Your Royal Highness. - Your Royal Highness.

Is this the silk from the Hanyang Merchant Guild?

Yes, Your Royal Highness.

May I ask why you ask, Your Highness?

Do you believe this crude pattern is fit for the Royal Family?

Tell the Hanyang Merchant Guild to take this back immediately...

and send a replacement.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness.

- Your Highness. - Your Highness.

Your Highness.

What happened?

She has had no food or drink for days.

It seems she has finally collapsed.

Send for the Royal Physician now!

Stay back. I will stab anyone who comes near me.

- Yeo Ri. - Yes.

You. Take off your clothes.

Pardon the intrusion, my lord.

The Crown Princess Consort...

has escaped...

from the Detached Palace.

Was this Prince Je Un's doing?

I already sent someone to check. Our spy at Eunwol Pavilion says...

he has been there all day.

What about the Deposed Crown Princess in the prison?

- I will go and check. - No.

I will check on her myself.

Left State Councilor. What brings you here?

You just sent over a senior court lady from the Detached Palace.

Open the door.

Yes, my lord.

Stop right there!

Halt!

- Seize him! - Surround him!

Get him!

Rescue Her Highness!

- Get that man! - Seize him!

Her Highness is the priority!

Your Highness, are you all right?

Your Highness!

- Your Highness, please dismount. - Your Highness!

Your Highness.

How dare you...

I will take the Royal Concubine's place in prison.

You take her and get away from here.

(Get away from here.)

I am Senior Court Lady Jin Mi Ryeong of the Detached Palace.

The Left State Councilor sent me to see the Deposed Crown Princess.

Of all the times, right during the shift change?

Go on in.

What? Crown Princess Consort? What are you doing here?

You need to get out of here and find Deok Chun.

Give her this letter.

To Choraengi Mask?

It is unlocked.

We are out of time.

Hold on. What is the plan?

A little switcheroo.

The Deposed Crown Princess has escaped! Find her!

- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!

All right.

Let us move out.

- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.

Halt!

Keep moving.

- What is all this? - Yes, sir. This is...

silk for the Royal Office of Attire. But we were ordered to redeliver it.

I have no record of that order, so I will have to inspect it.

But this is the Royal Office of Attire seal.

Step aside.

This is bad.

Be careful!

Each roll is 100 nyang. If you tear even a single thread,

you will be buying this entire box.

One, two, three, four, five.

Gosh, that is enough to buy a fine house.

How many years' pay for a guard? Twenty?

Two hundred years? Good grief.

So be very careful with your inspection.

- Get out of here. - Right away, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Hurry.

Let us go. Hurry.

Tell the Hanyang Merchant Guild to take this back immediately...

and send a replacement.

Yes, Your Highness.

How can you be thinking about silk at a time like this?

Always be aware of your surroundings no matter the circumstances.

The Crown Prince and Crown Princess have safely escaped the palace.

Thank goodness.

In the end,

nothing has changed from five years ago.

Then and now, you are what is most important to me.

I have found evidence...

that the Left State Councilor has a private army called The Nameless.

- A private army? - This is treason.

However,

I do not have any definitive proof yet.

According to this letter from Dal,

the Choraengi Mask is in Yangju,

and The Nameless are in a mountain fortress.

Let us search the nearby mountains.

All I know is that their base of operations is in Yangju.

Speaking of which,

if I were to die,

someone else will release the secret pact.

The secret pact must be there.

The Left State Councilor said...

the secret pact would be released if he died.

He must have...

hidden it with the one he trusts most, the leader of The Nameless.

Do you have a plan?

I plan to go to Yangju with Je Un to find the base of The Nameless.

You will be risking your life.

Are you prepared for that?

No. I have no intention of just rolling over and dying.

I am not the same Yeon Wol who quietly vanished five years ago.

I am not leaving...

His Highness' side, ever.

I will survive and live the rest of my days in happiness.

As if to spite them for the past,

I will live a life they can only envy.

Things are different from five years ago.

You are right.

Both the Crown Princess and you, the Crown Prince, have changed,

so there is no reason why I should stay the same.

As they demand, I will sentence the Crown Princess...

to death by strangulation.

When the Left State Councilor lets his guard down,

take the Crown Princess and escape the palace.

Royal Father.

Bring me the Royal Tally.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Take this.

(Royal Tally: This wooden tablet mobilizes troops...)

(when its two halves are joined.)

I am so sorry.

For being a cowardly father who was not always there for you.

I will be right back,

Father.

My lord, you must hurry. Goodness.

So,

is that snoring supposed to be convincing?

My lord, what took you so long? I was just...

No, wait. Why are you even here?

You should have grabbed the Crown Princess Consort's hand...

and just run for it.

To survive.

So I can live...

and wait.

U Hui.

They will find out I have escaped any second now.

You have to hurry.

Okay.

Buy me as much time as you can.

I have to go now.

U Hui.

Will you not be in danger?

If the bait is trying to save its own skin,

the fish will never bite.

I do not know.

I do not know about any of that.

How...

can I possibly leave you behind?

Can we not just run away together, right now?

You must live.

If you get caught this time, my father will kill you.

So...

live for me, Un.

I will come back to you.

Let us go.

Yes, Your Highness.

Where is the Deposed Crown Princess?

I do not know.

Even if I did,

would I have taken all this trouble to tell you?

Yeo Ri.

Yeo...

Yeo Ri!

Yeo Ri.

Yeo Ri.

Even if I were to kill 100 more like her,

you would not even bat an eye.

Find the Deposed Crown Princess, no matter what it takes.

Yes, my lord.

(Bounty: 100 nyang)

- Get her! - Yes, sir!

(Bounty: 100 nyang)

Looks like the horse is tired too.

We cannot blame him. We have been riding nonstop.

Should we find an inn in a nearby town?

Let us do that.

Hey, you! Get over here!

You know this woman or not?

- What are you doing? - How dare you?

(Bounty: 100 nyang)

Look closely. Do you know her or not?

I said, take a good look.

I said look, you jerk!

Take a good look!

Let us go.

Okay.

- The sun will be setting soon. - What? Let me see.

Okay, this is Mount Bulgok.

Right, follow me. I have an amazing swallow stashed away nearby.

What? Wait, just how many swallows do you have?

Hurry on now.

This is the place.

I see.

It looks like no one is home.

- Here, come on in. - Hey, wait a minute.

Are you sure this is the right house?

See this stone clock?

It means they have gone far off to gather medicinal herbs.

Come on in.

That is what that means?

A grateful man I saved once told me...

to stop by if I was in the area.

He said if no one was home, I could make myself comfortable.

Okay?

I told you, Your Royal Highness. Just trust me and follow.

This way.

What do you mean by that?

What do you mean, we have to go to Mount Gamak?

Actually, on the day I was arrested,

I exchanged a few words with the Left State Councilor.

Something felt off, so I prodded him a bit.

The way he got flustered was unusual and has been bothering me.

(6 years ago, Mount Gamak, Yeon Wol's Mother's Grave)

We should go.

Please take me to the palace.

- Who are you? - This letter...

My apologies. This is my lady.

She lost her son and has not been in her right mind since.

My lady, you should at least put on your shoes.

The ground is frozen.

Please excuse our intrusion.

- Let us go. - Let me go!

Your Highness. Based on her clothes, she seems to be from a noble family.

There are no signs of abuse either.

I did not realize it at the time,

but her socks were not worn out, and her clothes were clean.

She did not look like someone who had crossed mountains and rivers.

Are you saying The Nameless have a base on Mount Gamak?

Yes, most likely.

And above all, my brother.

Have you learned of the woman in white on Mount Gamak?

I am still looking into it.

I will report back once I have investigated more thoroughly.

Then you did not come to tell me about that woman?

If something should happen to me,

please give this book to His Royal Highness.

What do you mean by that? If something should happen?

Soon after that, I was deposed, and my family was wiped out.

The woman in white on Mount Gamak.

The Nameless, who are protecting her.

And the book my brother left behind while tracking her.

I am sure there is a clue in it.

Wait a minute.

A book, you say?

By any chance,

was that book a military treatise?

How did you know?

Five years ago, I had your things gathered and stored...

in the Royal Office of Attire.

Oddly, there was a military treatise among them,

and I remember thinking it was strange.

There has to be a major clue inside.

But we cannot get into the palace,

and the whole place is crawling with their shadowy thugs.

Whether it is Mount Gamak or the palace,

it is too dangerous to make a move right now.

Let us lie low for a few days first.

Okay.

Oh, gosh.

Where are you off to?

You are awake?

I was just about to make some breakfast.

No, do not!

What do you mean?

I will do it.

Do not worry about it. I will do it.

You just do not want to eat my cooking?

No, that is not it.

I think I can handle it.

I think I can handle it.

No.

I can do this.

No!

Darn. Gosh!

You, the Crown Prince, and me...

We are both useless when it comes to cooking.

Let me see.

What are you doing with that knife?

Move aside. Let me do it.

Oh, gosh!

How come he is good?

I have learned that knife work...

is all pretty much the same.

It is only how you slice that is different.

And what have you sliced before?

I am telling you, it is not as easy as it looks.

A beginner cannot just do it.

Watch closely. This is not about brute force.

It is all about the technique.

I knew this would happen.

- Gosh, hold on. - Your skills...

will not give you rice from your lady.

Give it here.

Goodness.

If you were that lady,

I would not eat that rice anyway.

I am good at chopping more than just firewood.

- Is it good? - Yes.

- Is it good? - It is delicious.

These walnuts...

These would be great with persimmons, do you not think?

A true prince, focused on persimmons at a time like this.

Who said it was for me? I wanted...

to give you something delicious to eat, that is all.

Come on.

Any other time, maybe. But not now. I do not want any persimmons.

Why?

Because if we go outside to find persimmons,

we might die right away.

I mean,

it is so sweltering, even at night.

So I made a chilling joke to cool us down.

No need to look so serious.

What if we...

just ran away from all this?

What are you talking about?

The military treatise my brother left behind...

might have clues about The Nameless.

And what if it is another dead end?

What if that is not enough to beat the Left State Councilor?

And what if, in the end,

I cannot protect you?

You are here, alive and well.

And we are right here,

smiling at each other.

All this talk of revenge and justice...

What does any of it matter?

I just want to be your Lee Gang.

Can we not just...

live like that?

If the Crown Prince is gone,

the next in line is Grand Prince Je Un.

We must stop Grand Prince Je Un...

from taking the throne at all costs.

But he is your only blood relative, Your Majesty.

Better for him to take the throne than a stranger...

I...

framed Grand Prince Je Un's mother for adultery and had her killed.

And I banished him to Sinjusa.

Who knows what vengeance he harbors in his dark heart?

He must never,

ever sit on the throne.

Your Majesty.

There is a rumor spreading secretly among the court ladies.

Where is the Left State Councilor?

I am aware that the Crown Princess Consort...

eloped with Grand Prince Je Un...

not too long ago.

Did you summon me just to threaten me?

I summoned you to make a deal.

Even if you cannot find the Crown Prince,

you must stop Grand Prince Je Un...

from taking the throne.

But Grand Prince Je Un...

is your only blood relative, is he not?

I have never once...

considered that boy my grandson.

A prophecy foretold that if Queen Jangjeong had a son...

and that son became the Crown Prince,

the late King...

would not live out his natural life.

And that prophecy came true.

Grand Prince Je Un should never have been born.

No, from the very beginning,

Queen Jangjeong,

a woman so wretched,

should never have been made Queen.

The curse upon the Royal Family...

and the tragedy of today.

It is all because of that mother and son.

So for the throne to now go to Grand Prince Je Un...

is utterly unthinkable.

Your Majesty,

you have not changed one bit.

I thought I had taken everything.

What are you still protecting?

Why are you still clinging to your avarice?

Taken everything?

What do you mean?

Do you really believe what happened in the Gyesa Year...

was because of some prophecy?

You are still blaming...

Queen Jangjeong and Grand Prince Je Un?

What happened in the Gyesa Year...

was because of you, Your Majesty.

Why did you do that to Queen Jangjeong?

Royal Mother!

Royal Mother!

Crown Prince,

you must never resent your Royal Father.

Your eyes, your nose, your lips...

From the tips of your fingers to your toes,

everything you are was a gift from your Royal Father.

Royal Mother!

Royal Mother!

Royal Mother!

Royal Mother!

It cannot be...

Why on earth...

did you kill that precious woman...

by framing her with such a filthy accusation of adultery?

So it was my fault.

So,

do you not ever

let the name of Queen Jangjeong...

pass your lips again.

We are going to Qing.

My wife and I. Just the two of us.

Have a boat ready for us at Jemulpo by tomorrow afternoon.

Yes, of course, my lord.

Wait...

What? A hundred nyang?

His Majesty sent me.

He sent me to help Your Highness in fulfilling your great cause.

Wait, how did you know to find me here?

I have searched the entire area.

Wait...

They are here!

Hand over the Deposed Crown Princess...

and return to the palace, Your Highness.

I refuse.

We have orders to bring you back, by force if necessary.

Is that right?

- Take Dal and go. That is an order. - Your Highness.

- How can I leave you behind? - Go now! From this moment,

I am doing things my way.

- Your Highness! - Your Highness!

Fine. Come and get me.

Whatever dream he has,

come at me if you want to ruin the Left State Councilor's dream.

Go!

What are you waiting for? Clear a path.

Clear the way!

You should go now.

Right.

But Your Highness...

Is it enough for just the two of us to be happy?

What about the Crown Princess Consort and Prince Je Un?

And even His Majesty, who is waiting anxiously for us?

If we turn our backs on everyone who is counting on us,

can we truly be happy?

The Left State Councilor will continue...

to get away with his evil deeds.

And if we live on the run when we have done nothing wrong,

would that not be a raw deal?

As a peddler, I cannot stand taking a loss.

We do not know if The Nameless's base is on Mount Gamak,

or if the secret pact is even there. Nothing is certain.

We have to try, even if it is a long shot.

If there is even a small chance, we have to go look.

Right now, this is our last stand. It is an all-or-nothing gamble.

If there is anything we can do, we have to go all in.

Even if we are flying blind, we have to charge straight ahead.

You are right.

We will do it your way.

There is a temple called Jeungyeongsa on Mount Gamak.

- I will wait for you there. - No, I will be the one to go.

But you have to go to the palace and find that military treatise.

I thought this body-swapping was a curse,

but this could actually be a golden opportunity.

I know how to fight, so I will go to the mountain fort.

You are quick on your feet, so you find the treatise at the palace.

You will be confined on arrival, so it will not be easy.

But find it and send it with Je Un.

Please just do as I say this time.

Okay.

Your Royal Highness!

His Majesty ordered you to be confined.

But it was not his decision, was it?

An order to be confined? I will be trapped with no way out.

Oh, right. I have to return "The Art of War"...

I borrowed from Je Un.

- It is in the wardrobe. - Seriously? Is that important now?

Do you remember...

the moon we saw at Jeungyeongsa on Mount Gamak?

Why are you suddenly going on about temples and moons?

There, the moon...

still lingers.

Return the book to Je Un. The military treatise.

"The Art of War".

Right.

("The Art of War")

The Crown Prince told you to deliver this book to me?

Yes.

He also mentioned the Royal Tally and the moon we saw...

at Jeungyeongsa on Mount Gamak.

But I do not recall ever going to Mount Gamak with His Highness.

The moon?

He said, "The moon still lingers there."

Maybe he is saying the Crown Princess is at Jeungyeongsa?

But this is just a military treatise.

What is different about it?

It is different.

I found The Nameless's hideout in the military treatise.

I will be back within three days at the latest.

The Nameless's hideout?

Six years ago, at Mount Gamak...

I saw a woman in white mourning with The Nameless.

Let me go!

Wait a minute.

The woman in white.

The letter.

I hear they are about to issue a Marriage Ban.

- A ribbon? - If I become strong enough...

to protect you after passing the exam,

can I be your husband then?

Can you not please just live?

Please just live.

I beg of you, please live.

He is my son.

Now I...

have become more powerful than I could have ever imagined,

and yet, you can never return to me.

So what am I...

supposed to do now?

The security is very tight there. It is suspicious,

sir.

We should get a closer look.

It is the Left State Councilor.

Mother.

(Moon River)

The secret pact is certain to be wherever Her Highness is.

Can you take the secret pact and go straight to the capital...

once we find it?

I appoint the daughter of the Left State Councilor Kim Han Chul...

as the Crown Princess.

You shattered me, Father.

Now all my pieces can do is cut my husband.

He will come. He said he would, so I know he will.

Because this is revenge for the two of us, me and Dal.
