Thrid Person POV
Westeros, 295 AC.
---------------------------------------
The 150 ships tinued heading south until reag the very tip of Dorne before headi, while the 50 northern ships passed through Stepstone, but not without problems. After all, many opportunists saw a ce to attack the now reduced enormous fleet, what they didn't expect was the defense of that pany.
"Captain! We're seeing the fleet and it's as we were informed! 50 ships, mostly ercial!" a pirate said to his captain, who nodded in satisfa.
"That's good! Let's attack!" He announced, looking at his men in the port, "Prepare all 20 ships, we're going to loot everything they have!" The bearded man spoke in a stern tone.
"Have you heard they have giants on the ships, you believe that?" said a man.
" we hahem?" asked someone cautiously.
"You idiot, we'll knock them down at sea, it will be quite simple!" another spoke.
"I'm going to fuck a female giant if I find one!" another pirate ughed.
They armed all the ships and began to leave a port city that housed many pirates among the Stepstone isnds. Setting off to intercept the Arti fleet on its route as it headed north.
"Captain! I'm sighting the ships!" Many days ter, the man announced from his mast with a spygss.
"That's good! Let's grab the oars and catch up to the fragmented fleet!!" The pirate captain shouted and all the men quickly began rowing towards the location, as the 50 ships grew rger and rger from that side.
"Strange... they've stopped sailing... they're not running away..." said the man on the mast.
"Let me see that..." the captain said, moving to the front of the boat and looking at the fleet not seeming to flee but stopping its advance as if it were waiting for them to catch up, which was quite strange.
"Whatever, they're just ercial ships." The pirate murmured and looked at his men. "Let's go, if they want to stop to wait for us, we won't let this ce slip away, get them!" He shouted as his men forced their oars and the 20 ships moved towards the 50 ships.
They were even somewhat thankful for this given the rumor that these strange ships were faster than anything at sea, so they wouldn't miss this ce. Before, with 200 ships it seemed intimidating, but 50 was much easier to attack.
They tinued forward and the ships were getting closer and closer, however, it was when they were 300 meters away while their men seemed all excited about the possible loot that something happened.
The pirate captain saw a strange movement from that distance while seeing figures much rger than anything he had seen before, because even at 300 meters away he could see them moving, while these figures were on some type of harpoon aiming at them, making the pirate captain's eyes widen, even never havihat type of equipment, he had a foreboding of what would happen.
"They 't shoot from this distance, they?" the captain thought too te, after all, there was an explosive sound from the 10 ships on the side of the small fleet, throwing those harpoons flying towards them.
The pirate captain saw small lines fly from that distao the sky and start desding in their dire, while 2 harpoons fell into the sea, 8 ships were pierced by the huge pieetal in the hull and on a ship, a man being pierced between the deck with the harpoon.
"They unch these ons from this distance?!" The pirate captain seemed incredulous, seeing his ship being pierced on the side with the harpoon like many others. "This is madness..." He murmured with some fear, after all this distance could be dangerous, but he was fused, as it would be a good idea to unch objects that would burn their ships and not unch metallic objects.
"Captain! We have a problem! There's a strange object with liquid attached to the iron harpoon!" A pirate shouted, looking at the harpoon stu the wood of the ship.
The pirate captain quickly ran to the location to see the object, he saw a der with blue liquid and a fuse burning, at that moment he froze.
"Put it out!" He immediately shouted, but he didn't stay to watch his men attempt to extinguish it, after all, his instincts told him to run as fast as he could from there. While running, it didn't take long for him to hear the explosion, as his men hadn't had the time to put out the fuse, and the wildfire exploded, the explosion emerging from the der spreading in all dires, ing the ship quickly as it exploded, with the men turning to ashes while they just let out a cry for mercy before being ed by the green fmes.
This happened on all the ships that had the der and even those that missed, after all, the harpoon that fell into the water returo the surfad as soon as the nearby fmes hit it, they too exploded, ing aire line of pirate ships with their captain turning to ashes in the main one.
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
BOOOM!
10 explosions ed more than 15 ships since even those not hit by the on were still caught by the explosion, making 5 of them watch their panions being decimated so easily and starting to turn in despair to avoid the green fmes burning on the sea.
"Retreat! Retreat!" The survivors shouted on their ships, but would the Arti ships let this happen?
Harpoons began to be unched, and this was not exclusive to galleys, but even the carracks had this attack system with the giant, the ships began to explode without the fleet needing to chase them, hitting them from 500 meters away, eliminating the st ones, some survivors mao jump before the sea, knowing they could not escape and saw their ships being exploded from a distance, but this moment of survival did not st long.
Huge tentacles began to grab and lift survivors, as they screamed ahrown into the sea, leaving those who saw this se even more desperate, seeing that death had not stopped until it elimihe st of them, pletely finishing off those who moments ago had malicious thoughts towards the small Arti fleet.
"That was a good extermination!" A dwarf shouted, whistling from one of the ships.
"Jol, you owe me money!" A man excimed to the dwarf.
"Damn, you beat me this time, you bastard, take these gold s!" The dwarf spoke grumpily, they still had an attat to gold, and losing put them in a bad mood.
"It's always good to bet with you, Jol!" The man ughed at the dwarf feeling the sack of s he won, learning in Dorne a bit more about the cept of exging this metal foods.
They had bet on how long it would st, with the man winning. "You see, they sted faster tha ones." The man ughed.
It was the third attack they had suffered since leaving the mai, as the pirates began to see them as easy prey. However, no one survived on attack began, they waited for them to reaeters before starting to attack, after all, even with them fleeing and distang after the first attack, they still had a margin to attack the ships while they fled. Even if there were some survivors, Serume would elimihem, as there could be no witnesses always having the element of surprise, and that was something they themselves sought.
The fleet tis journey finally emerging north out of Step Stoer a week being attacked 3 times while navigating past the pce, but with no damage to the fleet after all, now they would sail in open sea until the freezing waters of the north, of course, there would be ataing from King's Landing, but that wouldn't be any problem for them as long as they had ons that could eliminate anyone who attacked them.
2 weeks had passed since Jon had left Dorne, as the 50 ships headed North, Jon faced a storm in the south at sea again, while his ships cut through the massive waves, but staying firm in the face of the sea's challenge.
News about them emerged not only in King's Landing but all over Westeros, with a scroll nding in the hands of the old Queen of Thorns, receiving it in her room as she began to open it to see the news of the kingdom. In the West, the old lion also received the test news from the south of the Seven Kingdoms. However, the North was not left out, but with a different scroll from the st two, as instead of spy news, something the Starks did not have, there was yet another marriage proposal nding on the crow's tower of the maester.
A moon ago, a scroll arrived from the Manderlys about an ued visit from them with quite urgent news. Lord Stark o this and waited until the men from White Harbor finally passed through the gate of Winterfell, as they approached to greet Lord Stark and his family with Arya absent.
Wendel Manderly dismounted his horse and proceeded to greet the Starks, waiting for his arrival along with the retinue of his house.
"Lord Stark," he greeted with due respect.
"Lord Wendel Manderly, it's a pleasure to see you here in Winterfell," Ned spoke with a small smile, despite seeming like a tired man here.
"Always a pleasure, my lord," he said and greeted all the other family members, before turning back to Ned again. "Could we talk in private?" he said, giving a covert look towards Catelyn, after all, he knew how sensitive the woman was to this subjed wao talk to Lord Stark first.
"Of course, e to my sor," Ned spoke as he asked the man to follow him after aodating his men for a stay at the castle for a few days.
They went ier that and finally reached the room, keeping the same old anization of Lord Stark's from the st time Wendel had appeared here.
"Tell me, my lord, what do I owe your visit, that made you personally e to Winterfell...??" As soon as they entered and closed the door, Lord Stark asked as he settled into his chair.
"For this, my lord..." Wendel said nothing more as he took a piece of cloth out of his pocket, ed up, and pced it oable.
Lord Stark looked a bit suspiciously at it, while calmly pig up the piece of cloth and starting to un it, leaving him stunned, after all, there was a drawing of a ship, but what caught attention was the sail, more specifically its design, ohat he knew very well.
"This?!" He asked armed, looking at Wendel. "Where was this seen?" He inquired, since his nephew who had cut off unication a long time ago used this fg, a ship seen by sailors from White Harbor could only mean that these ships had emerged from beyond the Wall and sailed south, not that he found it impossible, Jon had shown up with armors never seen before, what was a ship built by him?
"You are mistaken, Lord Stark, it's not a ship, this is just one of them, passing in the open sea in front of White Harbor, seen by many mert ships ing and going from Essos, what surprises me was that I received the news of these ships and not from any house in the north, which means they passed unseen..." He spoke in a serious tone.
"How many?!" Lord Stark wao know the number, even knowing he wouldn't like the answer.
"A fleet of 200 of them," Wendel said. "200 ships passed beyond the Wall without anyone seeing, I remember I was here at that time when your son was hosted and I didn't pay much attention to him saying he was a king of the kingdom beyond the Wall, now I see how blind I was, your son has a gigantic fleet sailing the sea at this moment," Wendel recalled from that time.
"200 ships?! Joed all this..." Lord Stark was armed, uo imagihat Jon had created such a rge fleet of ships in just a few years.
"Do you know their destination and objective?" He turned his attention back to Lord Wendel and asked, hoping he would know.
"No ship dared to approach those ships, Lord Stark, we only know they are heading south..." Lord Wendel said.
"What Jon is pnning... 200 ships is not a small thing, the kingdom may see this as a threat and treat him as an enemy... especially after..." Lord Stark was going to finish but stopped, and Wendel pleted the sentence for him.
"After he kidnapped your daughter?" He lifted his head.
"He didn't kidnap her, I mean... he could have brought her bastead of returning beyond the Wall, but Jon did no harm to her, of that I am certain," he spoke.
"That's not what everyohinks, and you know the South does not look kindly upon this after seeing maers from your wife speaking with her family and even sendiers to King's Landing," Wendel spoke, finally even being a Northerhere were always merts arriving at his port and telling stories, and a very famous one was of the bastard stealing his true sister.
"Don't eveion it, I've been arguing with Catelyn about this for years, but she's always talking about Jon and we haven't slept together in moons..." Ned admitted, these st years had not been easy, with Catelyn even bming him for Jon stealing Arya, but he believed Arya was in good hands, though he preferred her here in Winterfell rather than being away from home for years without seeing her.
"You don't look well..." Wendell spoke cautiously to not offend him after what he had shared.
"You are right, my lord. But now I o know everything about Jon and this fleet. I want to know if Arya is on those ships and I need Jon to send her home, unfortunately, he ot set foot in the North, but he send Arya," Lord Stark spoke with a serious tone, wanting to see his daughter again.
"I will stay informed of any update I receive from them, my lord, but we o see how the lords will deal with this news, no one is going to like that wildlings have a fleet of ships traveling south, whether it's your son or not, the Lords of the North will not see this with good eyes," he spoke.
"You are right..." Lord Stark already saw a new headache ing for him and the cause was Jon again.
He listeo Lord Wendel as he provided more details, until he left a few days ter, days passed and news of the fleet began to spread through the North, letters from all ers of the North fell on Winterfell demanding they prepare for a wildling attad asking if his son would be attag the North, Lord Stark had to ask for help from Maester Luwin to reply to all the letters and demands throughout the North.
His headache truly began when Catelyn finally discovered about the fleet. "A fleet!!! The bastard has a fleet of 200 ships!" She seemed hysterical.
"He first takes my daughter, now he pns to attack Dorne and steal Winterfell!" She spoke with evident fear in her voice.
"They could never quer the North like this..." Lord Stark spoke, after all, the North had the entire army stationed here, it was impossible for an invasion of 200 ships to st very long.
"He's preparing to un attack, I'm certain!" Catelyn spoke with her paranoia. "He's got my Arya, he could use her as a hostage!" she murmured as if Jon was really a ing man using everything to his advah no morals.
"For heaven's sake, Cat, listen to yourself for once, you're speaking nonsense!" ried tue.
"No! It was you thinking like this that he took my Arya!" Catelyn excimed.
Ned sighed ahe woman live in her paranoia, when it came to Jon, she became a very difficult woman to deal with.
Days passed aher of their children except for Bran and a questioning Ri knew who Jon was, after all, Jon was not an easy topic to discuss within the family, and Catelyn made sure Jon was ent to little Ri, while their other children didn't have much sympathy for Jon, and Theon had a hatred for Jon, after all, every time he looked at his maimed hand, he remembered his nephew with no fondness.
After days, weeks passed until a raven arrived from House Martell. "Lord Stark, this is quite ued!" Maester Luwiered his sor with the scroll bearing the Martell sigil, he hadn't ope due to it appearing important and not wanting to be bold in looking at the tent before his lord saw it.
ook the scroll from the maester's hand and looked at the seal in, frowning. He expected any news of Jon tinuing his journey southward, but seeing a Martell seant that Jon was there and something had transpired between him and the Martell family. He broke the seal and began to read, finding the tents of the letter ued. Doran had written about how Jon's son was educated and intelligent at a high level, leading them te very fruitful agreements between Dorne and the Arctic, which already surprised Lord Stark. But what came left him even more stunned, as there roposal for a possible betrothal between Arya and his eldest son, Trystane Martell. Doran had not written about aive events that had arisen; instead, Doran was looking to see if he could secure an alliah the Starks, as this would bring the Arctic closer to them, noting Jon's care for his younger sister.
"What is this?!" he excimed in surprise.
"Is it something I should know, Lord Stark?" Maester Luwin asked curiously.
"See for yourself." Ned hahe paper to the older man, who also frowned after reading its tents.
"This is more ued than I thought, the young Joiated with the Martell family their products, which is quite impressive. I wonder how that boy mao do this... but your daughter being so praised and asked to marry his son, even gaining the status of a princess... after all, the Martells have this princely status along with those they marry," Maester Luwin ented.
"This seems very surreal..." Lord Stark seemed lost. "The st thing I would imagine hearing about Arya in the first news was how she was being a rare beauty, intelligent and skilled with bow and sword, coupled with a marriage of this scale. Even Doran says she was an example of a Lady... which makes me wonder if it's really Arya?" Not even Lord Stark could imagine such a thing.
"What should we do...?" Luwin asked, wanting to know what his lord would do.
"First, I must talk to my wife, and it won't be an easy versation..." he said, not knowing how she would react to suews, hoping that at least she would be proud, after all, a great house like the Martells was so impressed with Arya that they wanted a marriage betweewo families.
