after much discussion, and some arguing:
"we need more strength. we don't have enough people on our side."
when it comes from their leader, it's worrying. they've tried all they could to find others trustworthy enough not to rat them out. but everyone was afraid—smart, maybe.
"when i found kai in the woods, he said he made some friends there," yuna started, "one of them was choi beomgyu. remember him?"
they all did. one in particular, remembered him more clearly than the rest.
"i do," their leader said, knowing that he was exceptional—it didn't go by him that he should have been a part of the balevient circle.
he gave her a nod, and that was all she needed to get up and out of there.
"i'll go to," ryujin said, getting up with her. no one objected as they both walked out, mounting their horses and going into the woods.
"you knew him well, didn't you?" yuna asked, understanding.
the wind blowing through ryujin's hair did little to slow her heartbeat—maybe it would leap out of her chest. in the sunrise, the tears that pooled in her eyes shined gold; they were the happy kind, and she didn't have to reply.
at the sight of her expression, yuna's own heart swelled with the same joy.

yuna's dagger was special—a spell allowed those with the same one to be able to find it. each of them had one, just in case.
in front of them was a large cabin with flowers and plants growing in the front in neat rows. like a little old grandma lived here instead of four guys. the door opened before they could knock. ryujin's eyes went wide.
it was him. here. in front of her now. she threw her arms around him before he could react. they tumbled to the floor, blocking the doorway. and he held her just as tight. tight meaning death hug—they were squeezing the life out of each other.
neither of them wanted to let go. ever.
yuna, after seeing enough of this exchange, stepped over them and invited herself in.
kai and the two others sat around the cozy living room. yuna learned that their names were kang taehyun and choi soobin.
"can any of you wield a sword?" yuna asked. soobin, taehyun and kai said they could.
