Chapter 20: The Seal Returned
They set the Crown Prince on his knees in the mud of the gorge road, in front of both armies.
He had lost his cap.
His white silk was torn at the shoulder and black with smoke.
His hands were tied in front of him with a plain horse rope.
Six thousand of his own men sat on the slope with their weapons in a heap, watching.
Eight hundred of the Company stood behind Ha-rin in a long black wall.
She walked out to the middle of the road in the gold robe, with Do-gyeom at her left shoulder and his arm in a grey sling.
His good hand found hers and held it.
She had asked him to.
Three old men in armor stood on the other side of the road, their helmets under their arms, with Company spears at their backs.
Gwang-ho had marched them over himself.
"Generals," said Ha-rin.
Her voice rolled up the slope.
It was the voice she had only ever used alone, in empty rooms.
"I am Seo Ha-rin. You were told on a scroll that I was murdered. I am standing in front of you."
