"SHIN!" Yoon-Yi cried out in panic.
She felt Shin's body becoming limp, pressing down onto her. Not able to sustain his weight she almost fell over. Jun-Ho got there just in time to catch them. He pulled Shin from around Yoon-Yi and put him down gently.
Finally free of his hold, Yoon-Yi turned around and let out a horrified gasp. An arrow was stuck out of Shin's back, streams of blood staining his white overcoat, making the red appear even more vivid.
She and Jun-Ho turned to look as one of the guards, one of the two that were still alive, came from behind the archer and slashed his body. The man crumbled to the ground, his bow falling next to him.
"What is happe…"
Jung-Hee, who had just gotten out of the palanquin stopped and stared petrified at the scene. Then her eyes took in the rest that had happened around them and she clasped her hands over her mouth. Her eyes instantly teared up at the sight of death and blood.
