Review:
After the festival, the group is about ready to move on, when Yona
gets the feeling something is happening at Kohka. Despite it being
dangerous, and maybe even none of her business, she can't stay out of
it.
They infiltrate in disguise, nosing around as they try to find out
what's happening, what's planned. They're being told one thing, and
simply waiting in the village. But pretty soon, the numbers and
actions aren't matching up with the information. And they realize
there's a distraction tactic being used.
Despite the fact that Yona has no reason to help Su-Won, and in fact
shouldn't, doesn't stop her from heading straight for Kohka. It's her
country, even if Su-Won took it. Though, of course, Su-Won isn't one
to be taken by surprise, as we've seen.
This is sure to be an interesting encounter and battle. I'm excited
and worried.
At the end of the volume, we got a little extra featuring Gija's
childhood. It's a new insight into him that we haven't seen before.
It's bittersweet, really; it's sad, and yet Gija doesn't really let
things get him down much.
