Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King

The weather was cold and damp, and it rained all morning. In the afternoon, although the rain stopped, it was still covered with dark clouds, and the sun could not be seen.

Outside Storm's End, on the cliffs facing the sea, the huge bodies of Cleopatra and Drogon blocked the strong wind from the narrow sea.

Under the shelter of their wings, Aemon Targaryen lay still on the pyre in a new black robe.

"A maester of the Academy, he wore a choker and took an oath as a youth, and later joined the Night's Watch, and as he always did, he did his duty.

He was named after the heroic knight who died young, but though he lived a long life, his life was no less great.

His wisdom, nobility and kindness are unmatched.

He is of the blood of the true dragon, but his flame has been extinguished.

He is Aemon Targaryen, and his watch shall not cease until death, at the end of Us. "

After reading the eulogy, Samwell waved to the white dragon.

Cleopatra immediately opened her huge mouth, and hot flames spewed out from the depths of her throat, drawing a line of fire in the air, and igniting the funeral pyre.

Every member of House Targaryen is cremated after death.

And now Maester Aemon too.

Jumping flames rose up, quickly engulfing the old man's withered and thin body.

Daenerys looked at all this sadly, and said softly:

"I didn't expect to see the fall of a true dragon's blood just after I came back. I didn't even know him... Sam, I heard that Maester Aemon had a chance to sit on the Iron Throne. Is this true?"

"Yes. He is the third son of Maekar I. He was killed when the king conquered the rebel lord. The eldest son died of illness, and the second son died of drinking wildfire. Moreover, the heirs they left behind were all children. Someone wanted Yi Meng took off the necklace and inherited the Iron Throne.

But he refused. Aemon valued honor and vows more than the throne, so he gave the throne to his brother Aegon, your great-grandfather. "

Daenerys was silent for a while, then said:

"What a respectable old man. I really want to hear his story about the past..."

"Maester Aemon left some words for you." Margaery walked to Daenerys, took her arm naturally, and began to recite Aemon's last words before he died.

Daenerys is still a little unaccustomed to the intimacy shown by Margaery, but anyway, Daenerys, who has always been nervous, is secretly relieved that the other party is so easy to get along with.

It's just that when she saw Margaery's big belly, Daenerys couldn't help touching her flat belly, feeling a little sour in her heart.

She already knew that the scenes she saw in Meereen that conformed to the Witch's prophecy were hallucinations, so she had some worries and doubts about whether she would restore her fertility.

"So the savages are attacking the Great Wall now?" Samwell asked after hearing Margaery's report.

"Yes. It is said that they had to go south to avoid the threat of the White Walkers."

"There are White Walkers?" Daenerys asked, who had always heard this as a legend.

In fact, nearly all Westeros considers the White Walkers to be fictional monsters.

After all, this thing has never appeared for tens of thousands of years, and there are no detailed historical records, only vague and even inconsistent legends.

"There are indeed strange ghosts, and they are coming soon." Samwell said in a very firm tone.

"Then what should we do? If the White Walkers are really as terrifying as the legends say, shouldn't we stop the civil war and unite first?"

"Even if we want to stop the civil war, others may not agree." Samwell sighed.

He and the Lannister family had a deep hatred, and there was no possibility of reconciliation, and even if someone like Tywin agreed to peace talks, Samwell couldn't believe the other party's promise.

There is still a civil war to be fought, but it must be resolved quickly.

"We can write to all the lords in Westeros to tell them about the White Walkers and test their attitudes," Daenerys said.

"Yes." Samwell did not refuse the proposal.

In fact, he knew very well that the lords of the Seven Kingdoms would not believe it unless the White Walkers really entered the Great Wall.

Samwell didn't expect a letter to change the attitude of these nobles, he just wanted to take this opportunity to let the lords of the Seven Kingdoms know that Daenerys had returned and married him.

This is the real princess of the former dynasty, a pure Targaryen bloodline. If there were people who suspected that Samwell was the Blackfyre and questioned his claim to the Iron Throne, but now after marrying Daenerys, as long as he If King's Landing can be captured and the Lannister family can be wiped out, the other realms can basically be passed down.

He took such great effort to go to Slaver's Bay half a world away and bring Daenerys back, in order to unify Westeros at the fastest speed with the least cost.

After all, winter is coming, and he really doesn't have so much time to slowly fight the war of conquest.

Although there will be many hidden dangers in such a unification, we can only wait until the White Walkers are eliminated before going back to sort out internal problems.

During the conversation, the funeral pyre was gradually extinguished, and the old man who had witnessed the vicissitudes of Westeros for a century was reduced to ashes in the fire.

Samwell led the audience to the castle.

"And the brother of the Night's Watch who sent Maester Aemon to Storm's End?"

"I am, Your Majesty." Dareon stepped forward to salute.

"Is the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch still Lord Jeor Mormont?" Samwell asked.

"Lord Geor has unfortunately died." Darion said sadly, "He had led an army of night watchmen out of the Great Wall to investigate the situation, but was attacked by white ghosts and ghouls at the Fist of the First Men, and the troops were damaged Seriously, retreated to Custer's fortress, but was killed by traitors..."

"Jeo Mormont?" Daenerys asked upon hearing the familiar name. "Is that Lord Commander Ser Jorah's?"

"It's his father." Sam Wells said, feeling secretly that the commander-in-chief of the night watchman still died outside the Great Wall according to the original trajectory, "then the night watchman has elected a new commander-in-chief now?"

"It wasn't there when we left the Great Wall." Dareon said, "At that time, the wildlings invaded, and everyone was busy defending against foreign enemies."

Samwell was silent for a moment.

He remembered that in the original book, it was the original owner who used a little trick to help Jon Snow win the election of the commander-in-chief of the night watchman. But now that the Great Wall has no "killer" Sam, can Jon still be the commander-in-chief?

"Your Majesty," Dareon said again, "The Night Watch Corps is short of people and food, and encounters wildlings moving south. Seeing that winter is approaching and the White Walkers are about to invade, they are in urgent need of support."

Samwell nodded: "I will ask the Lords of the Stormlands to send the prisoners in their dungeons to the Great Wall. In addition, I will give you a batch of food."

"The Night's Watch will always remember your help!" Dareon was overjoyed.

He didn't think it was a humiliation for Samwell to send the prisoners to the Great Wall. Today's Night Watchman Corps has long since lost its glory, and most of them are composed of prisoners, at most, illegitimate children and nobles who have failed political battles.

Quite literally the Seven Kingdoms Garbage Repository.

Maester Aemon had also written to the major lords of the Seven Kingdoms asking for help before, but they received no response, and even the Iron Throne ignored the Great Wall's request for help.

So after the comparison, Caesar's approach seems commendable, not to mention that he also donated a batch of grain.

"However, I have a request." Samwell added.

"Please tell me."

"Don't be nervous, it's not a request, it's actually just a proposal." Samwell smiled when he saw Dareon with a tense face, "The position of commander-in-chief of the Night Watch Corps cannot remain vacant all the time, I hope you can elect a new one as soon as possible." Commander-in-Chief."

"Of course, we will elect a new commander-in-chief as soon as possible." Darion heaved a sigh of relief, this is really not a requirement.

After a pause, he seemed to realize something, and asked carefully, "Your Majesty, do you have any suggestions for the candidate for the commander-in-chief?"

"I respect the choice of the brothers of the Night Watch." Samwell said with a smile, "I just think it's better for the new commander-in-chief to have the blood of the Stark family."

"Stark..." Darion turned his mind quickly, and immediately thought that the only night watchman who met this requirement was Jon Snow, the illegitimate son of the Stark family.

The Storm King wants Jon to be Lord Commander of the Night's Watch?

But how did Jon know the Storm King? Or was it because of the Duke of Winterfell?

That's right, I heard that the Storm King has a good relationship with Duke Ed, and they worked together to kill the false king of the Lannister family.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take your suggestion back to Castle Black."
