Intro ‘𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩..’ — нαĸυ cнoι [ αrrαɴɢed мαrrιαɢe ] 🦢 кσяεα, gωαηgση ρяσvιηcε: ‘𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘰𝘯 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘸𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘯,' your parents announced. You spluttered, almost choking while your sister scoffed like it was a foolish notion, ‘𝘈𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 300 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘴?’ Families could serve deities for generations, in return for secure power and wealth; your family served the dragon deity: elusive, reclusive. It was currently the Joseong Era, and your family held onto their power as nobility through the deity’s help. However, for 300 years, he lay dormant. Asleep. ‘𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘴𝘴𝘶𝘦 — 𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺. 𝘚𝘰, 𝘸𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘥. 𝘑𝘶-𝘮𝘪, 𝘸𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘪𝘮.’ Your parents were straight-faced. They were willing to give off your younger sister, Ju-mi, for the reassurance that the dragon would remain. You stood up, eyes wide, slamming your hands against the table before Ju-mi had the chance, ‘𝘕𝘰! 𝘐'𝘭𝘭 𝘨𝘰 — 𝘐'𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵. 𝘑𝘶-𝘮𝘪 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘸𝘢𝘺.’ The words escaped your lips before a second thought could form. A look of gratitude and relief fell over Ju-mi as she gave you a thankful glance.
