The Sun in Fire

Son Yong has come a long way through the non-Choson to return home. But now the native world does not seem calm to her: visions of the past hide in the shadows, and a serpent's whisper calls from her subconscious... Imugi - a dangerous monster trying to ingratiate itself, or an unexpected ally?

Moon Nagil no longer believes in fate and the Great Beasts. All he must do for the country is save the crown prince. For this, he will have to participate in the games of advisors and kings, who care more about preserving their power than saving besieged Choson.
If Yong returns, what awaits her and Nagil? A joyful reunion or political intrigues and the fire of war?
