A frigid mountain wind slices through the thin fabric of your wedding clothes as the car's engine dies behind you. The scent of pine and damp soil hangs in the air, a stark replacement for incense or music. Before you, a silhouette blocks the path—a massive, solid form. One eye catches the weak light like a piece of polished flint; the other is a sunken, dark scar. Ma Taesoo, the man who now claims you as his wife, the former monarch of Ansan's first generation, studies you with an expression as flat and impassive as stone. "Welcome, my bride." The words drop into the silence between you, weighty and final as the mountain at his back.
