Arthdal Chronicles (아스달 연대기)

THE SWORD OF ARAMUN

Aramun's purple blood has been passed on to them.

I announce that the Aramun dynasty, the first dynasty of Arthdal, has begun.

PREVIOUSLY ON ARTHDAL CHRONICLES: THE SWORD OF ARAMUN

- Please! - Tagon, what's wrong? Look at me.

We must kill everyone who has seen our blood.

- Igutus are not-- - Everyone is pretending...

in front of us.

We must not trust anyone.

Run.

It is passed down in the family of Ragaz.

Thank you. I mean it wholeheartedly.

Who are you?

It will change once she finds out that he is Inaishingi.

How long will you...

Eunseom.

- What is this? - An iron sword.

Thousands and millions of Arthdal's soldiers

will be armed with iron swords now.

You lot can never win this war.

I hope you will save many lives of the Ago Tribe

who will die in vain.

You put Tanya Niruha in too much danger.

Die here, Inaishingi.

"When the zelkova tree cracks and my sword is revealed,

Aramun will know his mission."

I hope you realize that you're Aramun.

FAKE INAISHINGI

Go and tell the High Priest two things.

That is the price of your life.

Aramun's sword was found in the zelkova tree.

What nonsense is that?

There's nothing inside.

No.

From now on, this is Aramun's sword.

No matter how you see it,

this sword is mine.

Tell her!

I, Eunseom of the Wahan Tribe,

will become Inaishingi

and Aramun Haesulla!

They saw my blood.

Tagon, did you do this?

What happened? I...

Why am I like this?

- Tagon. - Tell me, Taealha.

What happened?

You got hurt while trying to save Arok in Ttesarichon.

Why are you doing this?

That wasn't...

a dream?

It was worth not giving up.

The waterfall helped us.

Thank you.

But who are those people?

I'm sure he will explain later.

What are you doing?

What are you going to do?

Then,

should I reveal who I am?

Let's just follow them.

Get a hold of yourself, Tagon.

This is not a dream.

This is not

- a dream? - What happened in Ttesarichon,

your purple blood being revealed,

and Tanya acknowledging the sacredness

of Igutus wasn't a dream, Tagon.

Tagon.

I understand.

You paid a very high price to hide it for your entire life.

Yes.

It might be hard to accept it.

But Tagon, what is important now is

that you have to take all of these.

Not Tanya. You.

You must take them all as if they were yours to begin with.

Is there someone

over there?

Tagon.

Is no one there?

There is no one.

Who are you seeing?

My father.

Sanung died more than 10 years ago.

You killed him. Don't you remember?

We used every medicine we could.

He might see or hear things for a while,

but he will recover.

Tagon.

Do you see your father over there?

Yes.

He is looking at me.

That can happen.

You were injured badly.

You took too much medicine to help you sleep

and you are exhausted.

But, Tagon...

it's fake.

It's neither a spirit nor a gosal . It's just fake.

VENGEFUL SPIRIT, GHOST

It's just an illusion, Tagon.

Do not look at what is fake.

I'm real.

I'm Taealha.

You gave up your whole life for our son Arok.

And we fought together and saved him.

That's how we earned this chance and it is a blessing.

It is our world now, Tagon.

The queen has arrived.

- Your Highness. - What medicine did you use on Tagon?

Hazelnut roots, mistletoe,

and fly agaric--

Fly agaric?

- Can you use it on an Igutu? - It is hard to tell.

Who would've tried using

such expensive medicine on an Igutu before?

- What? - But the wound was deep,

he was bleeding badly, and his heart was beating too fast.

It would've been dangerous if I had not stabilized him,

so I had no choice, Your Highness.

Tagon is hallucinating.

Will he return to normal?

Still?

I think the effect is stronger on him because he is Igutu.

How is the king?

What about him?

We lost him.

We could not make the search obvious.

My Queen.

Our soldier saw a man who helped him escape.

Find out who he is

even if you have to show the soldier every single person in Arthdal.

Understood.

Tanya.

What are you praying for?

Please don't stand up.

I just cannot understand.

Understand what?

How you're acquainted with...

Saya's benetbeot.

Who knows?

Does that mean anything now?

At one point,

I started to hear other people's thoughts.

It must be the psychic ability of the gods.

You must've been happy to have gained such an ability naturally.

No. It was... extremely painful.

I barely managed to accept it.

Extremely painful?

Why?

Because I don't only hear good things.

Even if I cover my ears, I can't block them out.

But I could hear some people's thoughts and some, I could not.

Why is that? I didn't know for a long time.

But now I do.

I couldn't hear the thoughts of those who shut me out.

That's a relief.

You wouldn't have heard my thoughts all this time.

No. But...

today, I could finally hear your thoughts faintly.

Maybe you need someone to lean on

because things are tough and you're in distress.

Fine.

What thoughts of mine do you hear?

"I was impatient."

"I was worried about the era of bronze passing."

"So I wanted to use that man who had the same face as Saya."

"I just needed the Wind and Flower Ritual to be done."

"As long as the heir was secured,

everything would've been fine."

"But it was ruined."

Are they similar?

Yes.

But we couldn't even do the Wind and Flower Ritual,

and the king is delirious.

Saya's benetbeot has disappeared,

and Igutus have become sacred overnight, thanks to you.

But I think all of these might not be Arok's or Tagon's.

No matter who gives you what,

if you don't grab it, it's not yours in the end.

You're the one who knows that the best.

By any chance,

are you thinking of another Aramun?

That would also belong to whoever grabs it.

That is why you rose to that position.

That is not the only reason why I rose to this position.

I, Taealha,

rose to this position because I could not tolerate

things that I could not fathom or make sense of for a long time.

I hope you keep that in mind.

Niruha.

You have shut me out again.

I am...

very glad to hear that.

Yangcha.

What happened?

Airuju.

Airuju.

Airuju.
