Yongsu.
You can't. I won't let you.
I've made a commitment to the Council.
Yongsu.
Who can rule without the support of the Hwarang?
But Mosan? Re-take Mosan?
You know what that fortress is like?
I'm going too. I won't let him earn all the glory.
Now, nephew... Try to keep up with the group, would you?
You making fun of me?
The road to Mosan is death.
Huh?
The road leading to the fortress is steep and narrow, ideal for an ambush.
The unit will be wiped out.
Then we won't re-take the fortress?
The spearhead unit is a diversion, a necessary sacrifice.
Which explains why no one has volunteered to lead it.
But suppose he wins, hm?
Mother, make the King stop him. Please.
Chunmyung.
Have I ever asked to be Queen?
Why is he forcing my husband to be heir, forcing him to war?
What else can he do?
Our three princes are dead. He has no royal heir.
Misil planned it this way.
This war will kill him.
Jang's got some 20,000 Baekje troops marching on Mt. Sam.

He's meeting reinforcements in Dusil. Baekje's morale is high.
You'll lead a force of 1,000 men through here to take Eulmijae.
You'll have to fight your way through ambushes on both sides.
At the same time our forces will retake the fort by advancing on the North Gate.
I'm going with you. To help.
No, I need you to look after the King and the Princess.
And watch you march to your own death?
Leave the palace. Now.
Darling.
It's your only chance. Please.
Do as I ask.
Please. I'm begging you.
Chunmyung.
Father, please. Yongsu...
I'm a failure.
Since the day King Jinheung died and passed his dream onto me...
I've been a failure.
I failed your mother, my own darling Maya.
My three sons...
I failed them all.
Father...
Most of all, I've failed the people of Silla.
The capitol is filled with Misil's cronies.
She bent the King's dying command to her own will.
Dethroned your uncle and set me up as a puppet.
The late King's hopes, my sons, the Hwarang, the Council...
one by one she took them all and I haven't been able to stop her.
But there's one thing I've kept safe from Misil.
You. Just you.
You're the only one to survive her plots.
The night the seven stars of Ursa Major became eight...
and I read the letter from Munno...
- By Munno you mean... - The field marshal...
that disappeared 15 years ago.
What did his letter say?
That the day seven stars became eight, the one to fight Misil would be born.
You.
Father.
You're our only hope.
Please do as I ask.
Father.
