A Great Distance in the Wind, the Sky at Dawn - Final Chapter.Episode Description:
Suzu and Shoukei reveal to the rebels that they are friends of the queen, much to everyone's surprise. They ask everyone to wait on their suicide attack on the imperial army. Keiki arrives at the top of the castle and Yoko rides him out to the army. Once there she demands from the general to know who sent the army since she is obviously the queen and she did not. Once she gains their allegiance, she sends them to Meikaku to arrest Gyokuyou. She also calls for forces to be sent to her palace to arrest Seikyo who has been controlling things from there. Arriving back at the castle, all of the rebels are bowing to her. She then discovers that the forces that had come to help were under the command of Koukan and she vows to set things right with him. Much later, after the arrests are made and cabinet members are reordered, Yoko delivers her first proclamation as queen. She rescinds the rule that requires prostration except during formal ceremonies.
