Ep 23. Morning of Pledges

In Yona of the Dawn season 1 episode 23, titled "Morning of Pledges," the group has arrived at the Yellow Dragon's village, where they are met with hostility from the villagers. The Yellow Dragon, Jaeha, explains that the village has been frequently attacked by a band of pirates, which is why they are wary of outsiders. However, Yona is determined to speak with the pirates and find a peaceful solution to the conflict.

With the help of Jaeha's abilities as a dragon, the group is able to locate the pirates' hideout. Yona, Hak, and Jaeha infiltrate the hideout and begin negotiations with the leader of the pirates, who initially refuses to listen to their pleas for peace. However, as Yona continues to speak with him and share her vision for a world without war and conflict, the leader begins to soften and eventually agrees to consider her proposal.

Meanwhile, the rest of the group is working to gather provisions and supplies for the Yellow Dragon's village, as they understand the difficulty of living in such a remote and vulnerable location. Yun, in particular, shows his resourcefulness and cunning as he negotiates with local merchants and convinces them to donate goods to the village. The group also takes the time to train and build their strength, knowing that future battles and challenges await them.

As the episode comes to a close, Yona and the group reflect on their journey so far and the bonds that have been forged along the way. Despite the obstacles they have faced and the dangers they have encountered, they remain fiercely committed to their mission and to each other. The Morning of Pledges marks a turning point for Yona and her companions, as they continue to grow and evolve on their path towards reclaiming the throne and restoring peace to the kingdom.
