In Goryeo Peninsula, a new kingdom was carved after a successful conquest. The land, ruled by the conqueror thus split amongst his progeny.
But a wind of change is in the horizon. As Ill omen arise,The Moon bathed in blood.
~A Loona fanfic set in ps...
"You never led a court in your Fort?! Not even once?!" his father said,inexplicably shocked
Hyejoo could only muster a shrug. "well,uncle Hyegoo did it for me..and he does a good job so..."
"not even once in a whole year that i bestowed upon you the command of Black Fort and the city of Chongjin?" he asked again
"no. Sorry..father" upon hearing this,the High King could only sigh,dissapointment was palpable in his aging face.
"little cub...even Jiwoo,careless as she is,does it time to time to a varying degree of success,and Hyunjin,that carefree half sibling of yours that you oft disagree with are doing it too..Wha..you have to learn to rule,how to govern and..tell you what, you're going to learn it first hand tomorrow. You're going to attend my daily audiences in the throne hall tomorrow. You and tadpole"
So here she is,the morrow after the scolding previous night,stood beside his father from dawn to late afternoon,with her banner hang proudly behind her and boredom clouding her mind,she could let out a howl of madness if she cooped up here any longer,just like the wolf in her banner does,howling towards a crescent shaped moon.

Through the high narrow windows of the Gyeongbukgung Palace's cavernous throne room, the light of sunset spilled across the floor, laying dark red stripes upon the walls where the tapestry depicting the High King's conquest are hung, vivid with greens and browns and blues.
The High King sat upon the bannerseat. Black Hare stood beside him too,carrying a parchment. Contained in the scroll are lists of people who had asked and granted an audience in front of the High King,commoners and nobles alike. To sounded and tell their grievances,problems that requires the High King's attention and his minister. Hyejoo saw the parchment early in the morning and bewildered when she saw the number of people his father had to hear and receive in his court.
On normal days,all Head Ministers attend alongside High King Geom himself,but for the last couple days it is not a normal day,as war preparation is of paramount importance,the High King decreed.
Four day has passed since the declaration of war and tomorrow is the day to march north.
so Black Hare are the only Head Minister present today,alongside Jaeseop the scribe and stewardess of the palace Chaein,with Tozaki's men guarding the entrance.
the youngest of the attendee,the would-be- Governor of Chagang,little Yeojin sat beside Jaeseop as his assistant,eagerly jotting down everything she deemed important in her parchment.
The petitioners who was clustered outside from the lowest of peasant to the highest of nobles, the hall is now diminished in numbers.
"How many of them left?" the High King asked. Haeil the Black Hare observed the scar-ridden face of the King he faithfully serve for a moment,weary but not weakened. Before laying his eyes on the parchment.
