"It seems that some magical creatures make an appointment when they come to this world."

Freddie Germanos, 1934-1999, Greek writer & ethnographer

(referring to Lambeti-Horn)

"Zeno, thank you for everything. Let's meet again, up in the heavens, all right?"

"...Yes."

Her last remembrance before she overwhelmed the darkness was her husband's sad smile and the warmth of his hands.

With the first light of day, the sky was adorned with intense red, golden yellow, pale purple and cyan. The sky of the dawn that stretched that day over the capital of the Kingdom of Kouka was really "Heart of eyes". Surprisingly, they did not all have time to enjoy this beautiful spectacle. There was intense mobility at the Crimson Dragon Palace.

The cries of a woman's pain resounded in every corridor and room. This woman was no other than Princess Sui-Feng, wife of Prince Il, who was in the ninth month of pregnancy. She was ready to give birth.

My midwife and her assistants were on her side from the first moment.

At the same time, outside of the room of childbirth, Il was alone with his big brother, Prince Yu-Hon, and his three-year-old nephew, Soo-Won. The boy had begun to make plans for the things he could do with his cousin, so many games and adventures, so he could not stand waiting.

"Where is he going?" "I'm tired of waiting."

"Wherever she goes, Soo-Won, she's just a little shy and the ladies just come trying to help her feel comfortable."

"Tell them to do it quickly."

Il and Yu-Hon could only laugh at the innocence of the little child.

The moment, however, was interrupted by the entrance of King Joo-Nam, who approached his two sons. An old man with an aura of wisdom and an imposing presence worthy of his title.

"I called the royal priest of Kouka to bless the royal infant, as the tradition imposes. Are we younger?"

Before one responded, another strong cry of pain penetrated the corridors before she succeeded in a baby's soft crying.

"Looks like you got the answer you wanted, Father. Well, Ottouto's congratulations, you're an official parent!"

Il started to feel embarrassed by Yu-Hon's good ideas and advice on raising a child. Though, here we say, he had gained some experience with Soo-Won, so his help was valuable.

The little boy, who was sitting and waiting all the time, approached his father to learn the news.

"Dad, will I finally meet my cousin?"

"Of course, my son. At last, the wait is over."

"Yaaaayyy ! But Dad, I do not understand."

"What happens ?"

"If my cousin did come, then why does the aunt continue to hurt?"

Soo-Won's observation landed in reality, as they once again heard the princess's screams for a few more minutes.

And then, a second cry of baby came to the fore.

Everyone was shocked. They were prepared for a baby, not for two.

Eventually, Il's entry into the room took Yu-Hon and King Joo-Nam from their dizziness and followed their most uncomfortable husband.

Their spectacle was indescribable.

The nurses arranged the space after the long and tedious process the princess underwent. Meanwhile, lying in bed and apparently exhausted was Princess Sui-Feng with her dear wife at her side.

"Mmm ... Il ..."

"Shhhh." "Relax, sweetheart, you did."

Soon, the midwife entered the room and took over Sui-Feng at birth and approached the new parents.

In her arms she held two babies wrapped in a warm blanket each, which she carefully placed in the bed next to her mother.

"Congratulations, High, High, You are the clear parents of two healthy girls!"

These words dominated the silent silence in the room.

Two girls.

Two Princesses.

The eyes of everyone turned to the two babies.

One was wrapped in a pink blanket and slept peacefully. She had beautiful red hair like the sky at dawn. Il loved his daughter's cheek gently, a move that prompted her to wake up, revealing two amethyst-colored eyes.

The other was wrapped in a yellow blanket and, unlike her sister, she was awake and watched with wonder and wonder the world around her. He had dark brown hair and pale brown eyes. It was her mother's miniature.

Sui-Feng used all her strength left and took her first baby in her arms, letting her husband keep the second. The emotion on her face could not be described in words.

"Welcome to the world, my little ones Mom is a little tired now and has to sleep for a while We'll be embracing all the time, okay, I've got so much to share with you, so much to know you We have all the time in front of us. "

This tender moment was about to stop by King Joo-Nam, who approached the midwife.

"Who of the two girls was born first?"

"The little girl with the red hair was born first, the second was born after half an hour, your Majesty."

"Mmm, welcome, you can leave now."

The midwife and her assistants gave one last bow before leaving the room.

Yu-Hon approached his son, who had fallen asleep in a nearby chair, and took him in his arms.

"My poor boy, so long to meet his cousin, who finally got him to sleep, ah, better to take him to his room." Congratulations again, Otouto.

With the departure of his eldest son, King Joo-Nam approached the new family in front of him. His expression was always difficult to read, but this time something was wrong and did not know why. And the worst was that Joo-Nam himself was not sure about the reason.

He looked carefully at his granddaughters. Especially the redhead in the arms of Sui-Feng.

"Have you decided names for girls?"

The couple looked for a moment in the eyes before Il took the floor first.

"We were thinking of naming the greatest Yona, like the urn when dressed in the colors of the dawn."

Then it was Sui-Feng's turn.

"The truth is that I was not prepared for a second baby, but none of us were. But now looking at our guys, I can only think how blessed I am and Il."

Seeing her younger daughter in the arms of Il trying to understand the new environment full of curiosity, she smiled broadly.

"Such a plague, with insatiable thirst for knowledge, we call it Kaya."

She could not think of a more terrible name for her daughter.

"Yona and Kaya, Mmm, you better get some rest, the priest will arrive soon, so I expect you to come in your time."

With these words, the king stepped out of the room, letting his son and his wife enjoy some quality time with their daughters.

Happy New Year, Friends Readers! Officially, those born up to 31 December 1999 are chronologically in the 20th century. An event we are not going to relive for as long as we live.

In our issue, now:

I do not own "Akatsuki no Yona", but only some OCs. One of them is Sui-Feng. The rest will appear in the course of the story.

My main pair of my story is none other than Zeno and Kaya.

Their story at Anime is very tragic, so I decided to change it by writing my own story. The inspiration for the plot of the story came to me when a few days ago I heard on Youtube two wonderful soundtracks.

The first was "Beautiful Anime Piano Music - Dawning Light" (the video that accompanies today's chapter).

The second will reveal it in the course of history, so you have a little patience.

Names translations:

•Sui-Feng = Water stamp

•Yona = Dawn

•Kaya = Wise child
