  Thrid Person POV

  Essos, 296 AC.

  ---------------------------------------

  Jon finally returo his main ship as soon as he reected with the fleet returning from Braavos.

  As soon as he arrived, he approached his men. "Well, Captai all the ships ready and head south immediately, it's time to go to Pentos," Jon ordered as the ships began to move and the Arti sailors raised the sails and scurried across the ships to keep up with the entire fleet, or at least nearly all, after all, 50 ships were breaking off from the fleet, heading north carrying all the books, animals, metals, and people they had hired from Braavos, along with the inister, who didn't o tinue participating in the journey south and the rest of Essos.

  Then, 450 ships tinued heading south. Jon looked at this and nodded as he saw Arya approag him with a stare.

  "What is it?" he asked.

  "Well, Wind is a bit sad, since she couldn't go to Braavos," Arya said, looking at the forest daughter who had left the ship just before they ehe city of Braavos, with Jon forbidding her from entering Braavos with the others.

  Jon sighed and approached the slightly hurt forest daughter. "Wind," he murmured, as the girl looked at him.

  "Hello... Jon..." she murmured.

  "Wind, I know you wao go with us, but it's dangerous for someone like you. After all, children of the forest haven't been seen for thousands of years below the wall, and no oside of Artica even thinks you exist. I just want you to not be in danger on our journey, I promise we will venture more ter, uood?" Jon said. Wind nodded in the end.

  Satisfied with that, Jon theuro the deck while Arya practiced some new moves with Darksister, as Jon noticed. "That guy from Braavos, did he teach you anything?" he asked curiously.

  Arya nodded excitedly. "Yes! He said I fight even faster. As fast as a cat!" she said with a mischievous smile.

  "Well, let's see if that's really true. I'll see ter," Jon said before entering the ship and passing the royal guards before entering his .

  Closing the door, he found his wife adjusting her dress, looking surprised. "You're here?" she said.

  "The journey is long, so I decided to spend some time in the room," he approached her from behind, toug her body lightly, running his hands ritte's curves.

  The woman with intense red hair closed her eyes at Jon's toud felt a shiver as he began to take off her dress, leaving her naked in front of him with just a quick touch.

  Jon was still toug her wheerrupted him, removing his hands from her body and pushing him away. "I don't like it when you touch me with clothes. I prefer you like this," she said as she removed her casual clothes.

  Ygritte smiled as she touched his bare chest, and Jon pulled her to him by her waist to feel the warmth of her body, as he kissed her on the lips and moved to her neck, with his wife moaning with pleasure. It wasn't long before Jon put her on the bed, and took her as his husband.

  Meanwhile, the ship tinued heading south, and a week had passed sihey started the journey rushing to the coast of Braavos while trading ships and pirates quickly raced as they saw hundreds of fgs on the horizon.

  During this time, the news of the movement of 500 Arti ships had already been spread throughout all the coastal cities of the region while ravens passed the information to farther nds.

  The situation was much more shog than before, after all, the Artis already had all the fame acquired with their strength at sea, now instead of 150 ships, having 500 ships navigating the sea made everyone quite cautious about this.

  Sined received a raven, he had been reading about the versation that Manderly had with Jon in Braavos and he immediately responded asking if he could visit him to talk in person.

  "Jon..." Ned couldn't stop thinking about the st time he saw his nephew, who now knew of his true parentage and wao talk about what they couldn't st time... after all, Jon hadn't given him a d that thing that appeared in the middle of Winterfell interrupted any ce of Ned really talking to Jon.

  While Winterfell and other castles were already being aware of the Artis, King's Landing was no different as the news left everyone in the court surprised and cautious, after all, they couldn't overlook the situation being a bit more plicated than it seemed, what they thought was dealing with 150 ships, had bee three times more, and with the soldiers of Westeros beginning to trate on the Wall, a war could even break out betweewo nations.

  A cil of the king quickly vened, while Robert did not participate due to being so huhat no one had tried to interfere, which had gotten much worse after he had returned from his defeat at sea and beien by a brat.

  In the cil room, all the others were present as they discussed putting all the coastal vilges and cities on high alert. Even though all the nobles were already gathering all the men they could to protect their nds against this group that most of Westeros now sidered an enemy.

  "Five hundred ships? They have five hundred ships?" Jon Arryn raised his voice asking twice, looking at Varys cautiously.

  "Exactly. They have almost three times the amount of the 200 ships that had left their nds over a year ago," Varys responded cautiously.

  The atmosphere quickly turned somber with this information. Everyohere had their own thoughts, whether fear, anger, envy, or eve, Baelish remained silent until now in his chair.

  The scar on his face was a neect of his appearaurning him from a man with a ical fad a maniputor into a man ed by hatred, hatred for his life taking such a turn, while he might have escaped death, at the same time, he was a joke at the court, people mocked and ughed at him, calling him some kind of monster, which made him hate everyone.

  First Brandon Stark had marked him in a duel, but now it was much worse, after all, he couldn't hide this scar with clothes, he hated Jon Artica with all his might at this moment, he began writing all kinds of letters to Catelyn about how dangerous Jon Artica is and his ambition to destroy the Stark family iure trying to sow discord, whied was beginning to hear from his wife, returning to his bouts of hatred for Jon that had not been there for many years.

  Baelish knew very well that he could manipute Catelyn, still using her fear to try to undermine her head how bad Jon was and even beginning to ihat he was even pnning to take the north for himself.

  It wasn't just Baelish who was cautious with the Artis, after all now with Jon being again the subject of the cil, even more with his sighting, everyone had different expressions from those they had once used to discuss the Artis, after all now Jon was reized how dangerous he was, after his numerous incursions.

  Cersei was another who had traumas from Jon like Baelish, even after Jon stopped the attacks and the death of any birds flying through the red fortress. She opped being vigint, always looking for any sign of danger. Her life was not the same with the fear that she had to face murderous birds stantly even more when Baelish looked like monsters, Cersei's biggest fear was having a face as horrible as his.

  But Cersei had not fotten the idea of killing Jon, wanting to end him ond for all to be safe, however, seeing that now they would have to face five hundred ships full of Arti men, made her even more disheartened.

  "How is this possible? How they build so many ships beyond the Wall?" Pycelle asked with a skeptical and dishearteone.

  "Believe it or not, there are thousands of witnesses who saw a fleet in front of the titan at the entrance of Braavos," Varys replied calmly.

  "What we do to stop him?" Cersei asked, fear in her voice.

  "I don't know, but the men you sent north, whathering at the Wall now, will serve as nothing more than on fodder," Varys responded.

  "Perhaps a treaty is the only solution. We ot face them at sea and a war beyond the Wall is madness... Perhaps a marriage is the best choice," Jon Arryn said, even though he did not like Jon after what he had caused, this would be the best sario for this situation, siywin had suggested such a thing.

  "It's not a bad deal..." Renly murmured. "If you ot defeat an enemy, join them." He spoke despite seeming to have hidden motives in his tone.

  "I've already said I won't let my daughter marry that savage!" Cersei immediately excimed, not wanting something like that to happen. "Why do we have to worry about all these ships? We elimihe king directly, and everyone will fall, we should hire a Faceless Man!" she cluded.

  "Do you believe we afford a Faceless Man for him now...?" Stannis ented with a severe tone as always, bearing some marks from the fight at sea.

  "That may be true, but we go to Braavos to iate with the House of Bd White..." Baelish spoke now, wanting to find an opportunity for revenge.

  "I imagihat would not be a wise choiot when we already have a pn to try to appease the flict between the realms..." Barristan said, standing like a statue, still dreaming every day of Jon's battle and his face.

  "Still, we see the prid I'm sure Mr. Baelish will be excited to go personally to see the price, as a good iator at the Iron Bank," Varys spoke, looking at Baelish and his scar.

  Baelish bristled with anger seeing that Varys was mog him and his mark on the face, but sighed trying to trol himself. "That be done," Baelish spoke at st, since he was indeed ied in seeing the price for the head of the man who had risen to the highest level of people he hated, even surpassing Brandon. "I will visit Braavos in the ing days," he affirmed.

  "Anyway," Jon interrupted. "He stopped in Braavos, and he's heading south, but he's not ing to our waters, right?" he asked.

  "The Artis are going to iate with the major cities on the coast of Essos. Braavos was just the first and from what I uand, they made a rge purchase and sold many things, creating ercial tracts beyond the products they were selling to Dorne and the Reach," Varys responded. "Like wood and food," he said.

  "Food? They io sell food?" Stannis raised an eyebrow at this a bit surprised, but still keeping his faeutral.

  "I don't know the details, after all my little birds could hardly ehe Iron Bank, but it seems it was a quite rge tract. Much rger than they made with Dorne and the Reach, and it seems that the food for Braavos will be se and with much more variety of things than the Seven Kingdoms produd Essos, that Braavos might even resell to other locations for the price that the Artis will be providing," Varys tinued.

  "This could be bad. Lord Tully and even the people of the Reach might not like this at all, knowing that there is a new food supplier on the seas," Jon Arryn murmured.

  "Yes... Lord Hand..." Baelish interfered this time. "Perhaps the Artis could be more dangerous than we imagined..." He had to ent. He might be a greedy maniputor, but he uands a bit of eics. "The Artis could simply domihe ey of Essos and enrich themselves by selling their products, even leading to a small eic crisis ieros. After all, many will lose trade with Essos." Baelish saw a good opportunity to increase the discord of the cil against the Artis.

  "Even if a marriage proposal is made, why would they accept, when they simply dominate us in other ways...? And if we do nothing, they might destroy the Seven Kingdoms," Baelish ented as everyone frowned, knowing he was exaggerating, and the smart ohere, whhis, said nothing against it, after all, they also had an i in ending this threat from the north.

  Meanwhile, oher side of the sea, at Magister Illyrio Mopatis' mansion, the situation was not very positive either. The news of 500 ships emerging in the north had left Illyrio quite worried, and now, with the Artis bringing 450 ships this way, it was a bit desperate for the man.

  After all, he could not refuse and khat his fellow Magisters would not turn down the tracts the Artis were , and even though he tried to say that they could destroy the city, the iations in Braavos had left them fident with the successful tracts, and no one wao be left behind with this rade trend.

  Magister Illyrio wao avoid this tact because he did not want the Artis to have tact with the Targaryens. His friend Varys had suggested that he do everything to prevent this tact. He even wao suggest that Viserys send his sister to the desert to marry some Khal, as Varys and he wao take the Targaryens out of the race for the Iron Throne, as they were pnning another pyer to do that.

  Regardless, he could do nothing and just sighed befoing to the dining table to meet his guests, or rather, his proteges.

  Viserys beamed a big smile upon seeing him, seeming very excited about the news, while Daenerys, more cautious, ate her pte of food, gng occasionally at her brother.

  "y friend, Illyrio. The food is delicious!" Viserys excimed as he seemed to own the pce, as he had acted all these years he was here.

  As Illyrio approached the table, Viserys looked at his sister. "They are ing, Dany. They are finally arriving. Those savages will have the privilege of following my orders, a true dragon," Viserys boasted, while Dany tio look at him in silence.

  "Yes," was all she ented, cautiously.

  "Be more excited, Dany. After all, you will help your brother while I will be handed over to them. I don't care what the king of the savages will do with you, even if they make you a ibal like them or even if you serve as a wild whore, your sacrifice will not be in vain oouch the Iron Throne again," Viserys spoke, oblivious to the atrocities he was saying to his own blood, while Daenerys shuddered at these ents.

  Illyrio remained silent in a er. While Viserys did not seem to be finished. "Perhaps sister... if there's anythi of you after going through all those savages... I might even rescue you, but until then, you'll have to endure," he spoke with a malicious tone.

  Daenerys was almost g at these ents, she had heard things about the Artis defeating King Robert and how they killed the men who fought against her family, but also her brother always said that they were ibal savages from the north who kidnapped women to rape them.

  Hearing that her brother was going to seo that group left her trembling with fear. She feared her fate, feared the Artis, and especially feared their king, who, acc to her brother, was a Stark bastard who had bee a king beyond the Wall. He would stantly speak of the atrocities itted and the crimes that Jon Artica had itted, even with wild women.

  It seemed that Viserys took a strange pleasure in seeing his sister scared, and that's why he liked to talk about the Artis, saying they would be just a people who would serve his purposes. Perhaps, in the end, he would even put ao them if he did not like these people once he took the throne.

  Illyrio listeo all this and was restless. He couldn't stop scratg his , thinking that perhaps it could even be a good thing for Viserys to act this way. Knowing that by defaming the Artis, they might be killed by these people, who had proven to have a short fuse in Oldtown.

  This would be better than his total pn to end the lihrough a marriage with savages. But the problem was that besides spshing ba him, the Arti king might even take an i iargaryen girl.

  If Jon Artica took an i in the girl, that would be a problem, siheir children might have sht to the throne. And it would be harder to pce his pyer that he and Varys had been preparing for years to take the throne.

  "Viserys, could you speak with me at the end of the dinner?" Illyrio apanied Viserys to his dining sor.

  "Viserys, I heard something serious. Perhaps the Artis are not as friendly to you as you imagine," Illyrio began, trying to ge the mind of this man trying to seek an alliance against the men of the north.

  "What is this story, Illyrio? I will offer them something they ot refuse. Their king will have the right to sleep with a Targaryen, something no one could dream of, not even that Stark bastard. Being able to share his bad blood with the true lineage of the dragons." Viserys scoffed while Illyrio looked at him thinking he did not have a good grasp of reality and this could kill him in a very cruel way.

  "But I have already spoken with Khal Drogo... you ot refuse him after making the proposal..." Illyrio tried tue, after all, he had already advahe marriage between the Khal ihraki desert to ehey would not get involved with the Artis.

  "I prefer the savage from the north to the savage from the desert, at least those from the north are not afraid of the sea and have hundreds of ships and eveed that damn usurper!" Viserys excimed angrily and Illyrio tried to stay calm.

  "Think about what I'm saying, the Artis could simply kill you, as you've seen, they have no respect for any other king..." Illyrio spoke sighing, seeing that he could nue much with Viserys in his fits e like now.

  "I sider you a friend and an ally, Illyrio, but I don't like hearing that someone is going to kill me, I am your king, remember that!" Viserys growled at Illyrio as he turned his bad left, his mood destroyed by Illyrio's words, while he would look for his sister to beat her up a bit, as he always did when he was frustrated, meanwhile, an owl outside the window listeo every versation happening in this mansion.
