You and Hak continued to dig for a minute, those minutes turning into 10 then 20. But matter how much you dug, you couldn't get the boulders out of the way. Sweat dripped down your face, you glanced at Hak who was covered in sweat, breathing deeply. Both of you were exhausted.

"Damn it.. this is tough." He mumbled, as you nodded your head. He rested a hand above your head, he didn't offer you a smile like he usually does, instead said: "Thank you for helping me dig."

Before you could even reply or start digging, the village people from earlier gathered around behind you. "What..?" You questioned, catching Hak's attention, as he turned around. He stepped forward, protectively standing infront of you.

"My.. son.. he's buried in there." A woman spoke up, she looked scared as she clutched the top of her robe. "My.. sister.. is in there." Another boy spoke up, avoiding eye contact. One by one, people started speaking up before one man said: "There.. is another way to dig into there.. it's from the outside." He mumbled, as you and Hak glanced at each other.

"My sister and friends are in there too, please take us there." You spoke, trying to imitate Yona's confident voice, the man mumbled, beganing to walk. The rest of the villagers started following, as Hak made eye contact with you, nodding before following the man.

You sighed, after at least half an hour of continuous digging, your feet hurt as did your arms. Your entire body ached, and you felt exhausted, even so you followed the man with the little strength you had left.

All of you eventually exited the large cave, as the man leaded you to a side, you hadn't noticed when you entered. "This.. connects to the cave inside." The man explained, as Hak readied his glaive, he was going to swing it with full force at the wall.

When he did, the wall began crumbling, small rocks falling, he lifted up his glaive once more, hitting it, this time larger rocks fell, there was an opening, and you could see people inside.

"Princess!" Hak yelled, when his eyes landed on Yona. Your eyes landed on her, and you felt extremely relieved. Hak immediately ran towards her, his arms were around her body in seconds, he hugged her with so much love. You couldn't help but smile.

You glanced around, you could see Yoon and Kija. "Yoon! Kija!" You yelled, running towards them. The two turned their attention to the other princess. "Princess!" The two yelled back. You were quick to capture Yoon in a hug. "Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" You asked Yoon, as he quickly got out of your embrace, saying no.

You moved your attention to Kija, who was covered in rocks. "Good job out here. You did well, Kija." You offered him a smile, which he returned. You thought to yourself for a moment, before opening up your arms, saying: "Hey Kija, do you want a hug too?"

The man became red in a matter of seconds, furiously declining the offer. You laughed to yourself, gently patting his head. "You're adorable Kija." The red on his face only deepened as he avoided eye contact.

You turned to Yona, who was watching you with a smile on her face. You walked towards her, stopping right infront of her. You placed both your palms on her cheeks, surveying for any injures. "Are you okay?" You asked her, as the smile on her face never disappeared.

"I'm fine." She told you, you returned her smile. "It was dark wasn't it? It was scary right? It's okay now." You told her, wrapping your own arms around her body. Hak who was watching, couldn't help but smile before going to check up on Yoon and Kija.
