Yona of the Dawn
One night of betrayal turned a sheltered princess into a warrior fueled by nothing but the will to live and the need for answers. Yona had everything—a doting father, a peaceful kingdom, and a secret love for her cousin Soo-Won—until the man she trusted most painted the palace floors red with her father's blood. Forced into the wild with only her childhood friend and bodyguard Hak at her side, the crimson-haired princess must trade her silk robes for a bow to survive a kingdom that now wants her dead. Her path is one of blood and legend as she seeks the four dragon warriors to reclaim her destiny, but the ghosts of her past are never far behind.
Even as she grows stronger, the weight of the crown hangs heavy on the man who stole it. In the quiet moments between cold political moves, Soo-Won finds himself haunted by the shadow of the girl he betrayed, instinctively turning his head at every familiar voice in a crowd only to find a stranger. From the chaotic, heartfelt counseling sessions of the Green Dragon Jae-Ha to the bittersweet memories shared by those living under the same moon, this story explores the deep, hidden scars left by a shattered peace. This is more than a quest for a throne; it is a journey of growth, sacrifice, and the agonizing question of whether a broken heart can ever truly heal when the person who broke it is the one you must destroy. Witness the fire of a fallen princess as she sets the sky ablaze to protect the people she loves.
