Ik-soo prayed, speaking slowy while conevying the voice of god. Yona sat to the right side of him, while You sat to the left. Hak and Yoon standing behind him.
"Darkness has fallen on the land. The blood of the dragons will revive once again. . ." Yona glanced at you, making eye contact. Both of you having the same questions in mind. Was the darkness Soo-won? Who are the dragons?
". . .and the ancient pact will be kept. When the four dragons are gathered. . ." Hak bent over to whisper something in your ear.
"What ancient pact? Who are those dragons? And what happens when they're gathered?" He asked question after question, not giving it a break.
"How am I supposed to know? Be quiet and listen, you monster!" Whisper-yelling back to him, you lightly pushed him back.
". . .the sword and shield which protect the King and Queen shall awaken. . ." The four of you quietly listened to the voice, which was sending you messages through riddles.
". . . and the two dragons shall restore dawn at least." It seemed like that's all God had to say.
Ik-soo quietly slumped over, resting his forehead on the ground, while Yoon and You made sure he was okay.
"Haaaa. Conveying Gods messages always takes half my soul out of me." He slowly sat up, getting his soul back.
"What a bothersome old man~" Yoon quietly poked Ik-soo's side, dusting any remaining dirt off.
". . Like I was saying these riddles about Gods and Dragons, I don't understand them. This coockoo guy is crazy." Hak glared at the priest.
"Hard believing that coming from a guy who survived a cliff fall." Yoon responded, while you glanced at Yona who was deep in thought.
"What's up Yona?" You asked her, making sure nothing was wrong, she thought for awhile before answering.
"The message reminded me of the dragons from the legend about the king and queen. . . father used to tell us." You thought back, remembering a similar tale about dragons.
"Ah, yes. You're correct, Princess Yona. Do you know the legend about how this country was created." While Hak and Yoon bickered. Yona and You nodded. Yona started telling the tale, the tale that will forever bring you memories.
"It's the story about the red dragon god and black dragon god who had shining white eyes." You started off the story, as Yona continued it.
"The two dragons descended to earth from heaven, to rule over it. The first rulers of Kouka Kingdom, King Hiryuu and Queen Ryujin." It was silent for a while before Ik-soo continued on with the story.
"Yes, but even the dragon gods started fighting the humans. The humans who watched after the King and Queen soon started growing jealousy in their hearts. They captured both the King and Queen with their wicked selfish hearts. They wanted the power of authority."
It always seemed like a wicked story to you, why were they all so jealous, if they had a good king, they would become a good strong country, yet the humans were so stupid.
"The four dragons called out to their king and queen. They told them to return to the heavens and punish the humans that mistreated them. But King Hiryuu and Queen Ryujin declined, stating they were already humans, and it would selfish of them to switch sides as they please. Together they both said. . ."
Ik-soo stopped for a few minutes, to catch his breath. Before he could start continuing it, the two of you finished it for him.
". . . Even if the humans hate and despise us. Torture us and kill us for their desires, we still love humans." You and Yona had said it together just like the King and Queen had once said it together, the two of you glanced and then smiling at each other, Ik-soo offering you a smile too.
"But the four dragons, loved their rulers and didnt want to lose them. So they chose four warriors, giving the four their blood, and making sure they protected their precious king and queen." Ik-soo continued on with the tale, as the two of you eagerly listened to him.
"The white dragon gave a vicous claw that could cut through anything. The blue dragon gave beautiful eyes that could see miles and miles away. The green dragon gave a powerful leg that could soar through the sky, and the final dragon, the yellow dragon gave a strong body that could never be injured."
"The four warriors, with their new powers protected the King and Queen, starting their own tribes, and created a strong country."
"But the Red dragon soon grew tired from all the battles and fell to an endless sleep. And not long after, the black dragon joined him."
You always remembered this part, because everytime your father had told you this part, you and your sister were always in tears.
"The four warriors mission was now complete, but the four mourned after the loss of someone precious. And learned that their powers were beyond human capabilities. They left their tribes and went their sepetate ways."
"The tribes became the five tribes we have today. And the four warriors locations were kept unknown."
"The end."
A silence fell over everyone as they pondered about both the story and prophecy.
