Rani came from the frozen North carrying little more than a healer's knowledge, the traditions of a forgotten homeland, and a loneliness she had long mistaken for strength. Shin-ah, the Blue Dragon, had spent his life hidden behind a mask, feared long before anyone cared to know the gentle soul beneath it. When their paths cross, neither of them expects to find comfort in the other's silence. Yet with every mile they travel beside Yona through Kouka, quiet gestures become trust, trust becomes devotion, and something neither of them dares to name slowly takes root. But the past is never as distant as it seems. Old gods still cast long shadows, blood remembers blood, and some bonds can only be forged through loss. In the end, the hardest battle may not be against the enemies waiting ahead-but against the fear of letting another person stand close enough to never lose them again.

She had lived in the warmth of the light with a loving family and yet one night all that warmth was taken only left with darkness.
