What is the Plot of Arthdal Chronicles: The Sword of Aramoon?
Arthdal Chronicles’ newest season revolves around the aftermath of what happened in the previous season of the K-drama. The story of The Sword of Aramoon takes place almost a decade after Arthdal had claimed victory over the slaughtered tribes and suppressed their revolt.
The previous season also witnessed the reunification of 30 clans under the leadership of Eun Seom after facing separation for over 200 years.
Ta Gon, the one who had massacred the tribes, was now the King of Arthdral, and war was slowly approaching them during his eighth year of kingship.
Arthdal Chronicles: The Sword of Aramoon will be witnessing the biggest war since the victory in the first season. The Ago union, to which Eun Seom belonged and which had the 30 clans under it, was now ready to face Ta Go’s Arthdal kingdom and start a rebellion.
Meanwhile, Tan Ya is the known successor of Ta Go and is now put to the test when she is forced to face Eun Seom, who, after all these years, had established his rule over the East. Arthdal Chronicles
The Sword of Aramoon will explore the legends of the Kingdom and all the other secrets that unravel as the enmity between the two continually grows.
