Akatsuki no Yona - Vol. 18 Ch. 103 - Our Lord Lies in Slumber

So if I got this straight, Hiryuu's descendants became the Fire Tribe, Guen's tribe became the Earth Tribe, Shuten's became the Wind Tribe, Abi's became the Water Tribe, and Zeno's became the Sky Tribe, right?

oh my lord these tears

This really showcases how terrifying true immortality can be. It's no secret that living forever would probably suck, and tons of different pieces of fiction cover it, but I think this one might be the best interpretation of it.

Tragic.

 

[daisyBlin]

This is so sad

@sukaley Kind of a late reply but I believe the sky tribe was one of the lands the King Hiryuu conquered and wasn't one of the original clans created by the dragons. Zeno said that the tribe he originated from has long since died out and he never settled down within a single tribe. Most of the dragon clans became detached frim the original clans in general.

Something to keep in mind its been thousands of years since Kouka was founded so its amazing the dragons clans survived as they are now even if they are diminished.

[Cyro11]

Damn..

 

[Sparrowhawk]

Oh god, I’m a wreck rn... how sad.

 

[Majuwu]

Omg my eyes are sweating

 

[lxve]

i cant do this. zeno i wish i could hug u

 

[WiseGirl]

Mah heart

 

[Zen_Clark]

If I remember correctly, they said the tribes were originally founded by the first generation tribes, like you would found a village, colony, or army, but they were not their descendents.

The hidden villages were the powers manifest, were their decedents separate from the tribes. They alone shared a blood connection.

 

[DollDream]

I'm crying so much right now

 

[Ooitsreeba]

Aaahh hell this hurts so much. Thinking that zeno had to feel every single one of them die while he remained. I can't even begin to imagine. This is just a manga but omg it hits so differently

 

[Cursa]

How long do they intend to rip my heart apart?

 

[hanakou]

ive been following akatsuki no yona for over a year and zenos backstory NEVER FAILS TO GET ME

 

[lxmon_fax]

rereading Zeno's backstory hurts me so much, it's just so sad to realise he's gone thousands of years watching his comrades' descendants die whilst he cant ever feel the relief of finally dying
