Hana of the Dusk | Akatsuki no Yona

[on hold]

Hana was the eldest daughter of King Il of the Kingdom of Kouka. She was 18 years old, the same age as Hak and Soo-won while also being two years older than Yona. In contrast to Yona who had striking velvet-red hair, Hana was born with natural orange hair. That was how she earned the name Hana of the Dusk from Soo-won.

At the age of 12, when she was informed that she would be the Queen in the next few years after her father's retirement, Hana had refused the throne, for she deemed she was not fit to become the ruler of the kingdom. She had persuaded her father to pass the title of the heiress to Yona, since Yona had a good heart and would obviously be a better ruler than Hana. Besides, Hana preferred a life with freedom; not bound to any duties. King Il had reluctantly agreed and granted her wish. Hana then stayed with the Wind Tribe to train with Lord Mun-Dok and Hak.

She lived a good life, getting a chance to do whatever she wanted. She had a kind and loving father, a sister who adored her so much, and a childhood best friend who loved to annoy her. She wouldn't want it the other way around.

But we don't get to choose what happens in our lives, do we?

On this one particular night, Hana's life turned into hell in a blink of an eye.
