WATER!
GET WATER!!!
WAAAAH... MOMMY...!
AAAAAAH!
WATER!
HELP ME!
GET UP.
GET UP AND...
COME OUT AND SEE.
SEE WHAT THAT MAN YOU CALL YOUR FATHER HAS DONE —
THE ONE WHO BURNED DOWN HOYEONJAE
AND SLAUGHTERED OUR FAMILY.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT HE DID?
YOUR GRANDFATHER COULDN'T BRING HIMSELF TO CAST YOU OUT, SO HE TOOK YOU IN.
AND YOUR FATHER DUG UP HIS GRAVE...
AND STOLE HIS REMAINS!
YOU'RE NOT EVEN SURPRISED.
YOU ALREADY KNEW, DIDN'T YOU?
AND THAT THE MAN YOU'VE BEEN CALLING YOUR FATHER ALL THIS TIME
IS ACTUALLY YOUR GRANDFATHER.
THAT I'M NOT YOUR MOTHER.
THEN—
YOU MUST ALSO KNOW WHAT YOUR FATHER DID TO MY DAUGHTER!
DO YOU?!
I'M...
I'M SORRY...
YOUR FATHER...
FIND YOUR FATHER...
FIND THAT BASTARD
AND BRING BACK YOUR GRANDFATHER!!!
FLAMES ROSE INTO THE EMPTY AIR.
THROUGH THE SOOT AND ASH, BLACKER THAN THE NIGHT SKY,
I RAN WITHOUT STOPPING.
THE CRIES OF COUNTLESS PEOPLE SEEMED TO PULL AT MY ANKLES,
AND THE MEMORY OF THE MADAM'S SHARP GAZE FELT LIKE IT WAS CUTTING INTO MY BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN.
AT THE END OF THE BLAZING TRAIL,
EVEN IF I WERE TO WITNESS DESPAIR,
EVEN IF THE SIGHT OF MY DYING TEACHER WERE TO BLACKEN
THE WORLD BEFORE MY EYES...
WAIT, HOLD ON.
WAIT A MINUTE!
SHE'LL GET UP! PLEASE!!
EITHER SHE GETS UP OR SHE DOESN'T.
WHAT'S THIS "SHE'LL GET UP" NONSENSE?
MY EARS ARE RINGING.
STAY STILL, WILL YOU?!
AAAARGH!
THIS SEEMS LIKE A SERIOUS SITUATION,
BUT I CAN'T MOVE.
PLEASE, PLEASE...
THAT VOICE...
WELCOME, MISS.
IT'S DARK...
I'M SCARED...
PLEASE, SOMEONE...
A WOLF...?
HUH? H-HEY...!
SIR! WAIT A SECOND!
SHE SEEMS TO BE AWAKE.
WHERE... AM I...?
OH MY! YOUNG LADY!
I'M SO SORRY!
THANK GOODNESS YOU'RE AWAKE.
WE WON'T BE NEEDING THIS ANYMORE, SO GET RID OF IT.
INFORM HIS LORDSHIP.
YES, SIR!
I CAN GO NOW, RIGHT?
MY HEAD IS THROBBING...
HOW DO YOU FEEL?
CAN YOU WALK?
!
GET CHANGED AND FOLLOW ME.
BEFORE I COULD EVEN COME TO MY SENSES,
IT SEEMED MY NEXT DESTINATION HAD ALREADY BEEN DECIDED.
THIS MUST BE WHAT IT MEANS TO HOLD THE KEY.
YOUR LIFE BECOMES LIKE A CANDLE IN THE WIND,
CONSTANTLY IN PERIL.
BUT I'M NOT AFRAID FOR MY OWN LIFE.
IF THE BEGINNING OF MY LIFE WAS THE BEGINNING OF SIN,
THEN ISN'T THIS ATONEMENT, NOT DEATH?
IF THERE IS ANYTHING I FEAR,
IT'S FAILING TO BRING MY GRANDFATHER BACK.
TO DIE A MEANINGLESS DEATH,
HAVING ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING.
I CAN'T LIFT MY HEAD...
DON'T JUST STAND THERE.
LOOK AT ME.
THE BLUE-EYED WOLF.
Chapter Summary
Atonement, For Your Cruelty Chapter 6 opens with a confrontation amid the fire and massacre engulfing Hoyeonjae. A woman screams that the man she knew as father slaughtered the family and dug up the grandfather's grave to steal his bones, and demands that he find her father and bring back her grandfather. The narrator runs through the flames, then wakes up in darkness; she is asked to change her clothes and follow to be brought before a man known as the blue-eyed wolf.
