Returning to the slopes of Mount Hwinsan, the Shahati headquarters, made Yangcha feel a little nervous. Not because he was afraid, but because he remembered all the torture he had suffered while being trained there.

"Are you sure you will do that?" Yangcha asked.

Tanya nodded, "You said they wouldn't kill if they didn't get the order, right?"

"Yes, unless they are attacked first."

"We have lost Daekans, the best army in Arthdal. So we must get the best assassins after Daekan."

But when they arrived at the Shahati headquarters, the place was already empty, abandoned.

"Have they all died during the rebellion by Asa Ron?" Murmured Tanya.

"If there's anything left, maybe they have run away and mingled with the people."

Tanya's shoulder dropped. Yangcha embraced and rubbed it softly.

"It's okay, we tried."

But before leaving the base, Yangcha faintly heard a voice. He turned to and fro while on standby. Taking Tanya's hand, he walked over to the wooden wall, tapping it from end to end. He pushed against a wall that sounded different from the others. The wall is open.

"Well, I never knew that this base had a secret room," murmured Yangcha.

Just a few steps they entered, a sickle knife was unsheathed in front of Yangcha's neck. Tanya gasped and hid behind Yangcha's back, trembling.

The owner of the knife is a woman. Yangcha opened his mouth, showing his black tongue, but the knife still did not come down from his neck.

"We didn't come here to attack you, Seena," Yangcha said

The girl stared, "do you know my name?"

"Not many have names in this group. Neither do I."

Seena narrowed her eyes, then the tip of her lips raised after she could recognize Yangcha.

"Oh, you are the one who killed Asa Sakan, our master before Asa Ron."

"Am I that famous?"

"We were all ordered to kill you."

"So you are going to kill me now?"

Tanya was getting more scared, she gripped Yangcha's arm. The man patted the back of her hand slowly, calming her.

Seena instead lowered her knife, "No. Before getting the assignment from Asa Ron, I was ordered by Asa Sakan, not to kill anyone who killed her and protect you."

"Protect me? When did you protect me? I fought alone to escape from those who were chasing me."

"Tagon is looking for a Shahati boy to recruit to become his warrior. So I introduce you to him. I told him that he will meet you in the forest near headquarters."

Yangcha snorted in disbelief, "so it's not a coincidence ..."

"There is no coincidence in this world."

Yangcha frowned, "but why does Asa Sakan want to protect me, the person who killed her?"

Seena invited them to go deeper into the secret room. In there, there were several other Shahati women, not many, less than ten. All looked at them with cold eyes. Tanya shivering, she wasn't sure she could be their master.

Seena invited them to sit down.

"She said, she dreamed, her first and last dream. A white snake came to her and said that this country would return to the way it was started. Asa Sin would return with her protector, Risan, as well as Aramun Haeseulla and Inaishingi will come together in a woman's womb. They will change the world, restore peace that they failed to do in the past. That's what Asa Sakan tells me. "

"Then what does that have to relate with me?"

"You are..." Seena pointed at Yangcha, "Risan."

"What?" Both Yangcha and Tanya stared in surprise.

Seena turned to Tanya, "and you're Asa Sin, I think."

"Asa Sakan said, Risan came down to earth first, to prepare himself to be stronger and not die young as in the past. He chose to be present in a mixed blood family of Neanthal-Igutu-Saram."

Seena paused for a moment before continuing, "Twenty-five years ago, when Asa Sakan decided to step down from her post as highest priestess and was replaced by Asa Ron, a married couple helped her when she was about to be attacked by a lion. The man was descended from Saram - Igutu, while his wife was being pregnant is a descendant of Neanthal-Igutu. But a few months later, Saram hunted them down. Apparently they were found to be of mixed blood. The husband was killed, while his wife was still alive and dying when Asa Sakan found her. She gave Asa Sakan a manuscript scroll, then died after give birth, on the night of the bloody moon. Before you kill her, Asa Sakan asked me to give the script to a woman."

Yangcha pensive, he felt a little relieved, knowing that he was not a child who was deliberately abandoned. Tanya who heard Yangcha's mind, held his hand tightly.

"After dreaming of that, Asa Sakan realized that her life would not be long, especially with having an ambitious son and wanting to have everything. Asa Ron assigned one of our members, but Asa Sakan told me to take the assignment letter and give it to you. Because she would feel more honored if her life is taken by the incarnation of Risan. "

Yangcha nodded in understanding.

"By the way, why am I the one who told the story? I forgot to ask what your purpose were here?"

Yangcha turned to the Shahati members who sat not far from them.

"Are there only you guys left?"

"Yes. Asa Ron took down all the members during his rebellion. You know, Shahati never ran away. Once we get the orders, we will finish it completely."

"Then how can you still survive?"

"Only we were not invited. Asa Ron did not trust the abilities of women. He treated us like servants after Asa Sakan died."

"Who is your master now?"

"No one."

"Then, will you work for us?"

Seena pulled out her sickle knife, "who should we kill?"

"Tagon."
