Chapter 234 The Mark of the Glutton
After waking up, Leonor listened to a lot of information.
Learning about Rhaegar's attack on the Three Women's Kingdom and the imminent victory of the Stone Step Islands.
A dragon returns to the continent, and rebellion among the princes of the Riverlands will not be a problem.
“Lord Leonor, please pay attention to your injuries.”
Rhaegar looked at the other party's bloated figure worriedly.
Leonor patted his chest and coughed twice: "My physical condition is fine."
The Strong family.
As soon as you hear the name, you will know that all members of the family are strong and healthy.
Except for his second son, Larry Strong.
That is a deformity of a crooked foot, and he is born weak and sickly.
Looking up, the night is dotted with stars, and a bright moon emits fluorescence.
Helena leaned against Rhaegar's legs, put her two chubby hands together, and watched quietly.
Rhaegar understood this and asked, "What is your proposal?"
Seeing that his body was still strong, Rhaegar said seriously: "The rebellious princes are led by the Blackwood and Bracken families. I mean to suppress them with iron blood."
Rega's eyes were soft and he took the initiative to hold Helena's little hand.
The nobility are a strange group.
“Prince, your idea is not wrong.”
Except when riding a dragon, she has a relatively reserved temperament.
Leonor shook his beard and thought: "However, the two families have lasted for thousands of years and are deeply rooted in the riverlands. Too much killing may cause a backlash from other nobles."
Severe punishment will be given without credit.
Rhaenyra glanced at Helena and took her hand helplessly.
“Rhaegar, go and rest first.”
“Okay, you two share a tent and take care of each other.”
We usually fight back and forth, fighting to the death.
Rhaenyra took Rhaegar's hand and looked at him with concern.
Blatant treason must be paid in blood and fire.
Using the hatred of both sides, one fights against the other, and the rebellion is put down with minimum loss.
He is also the half-brother of Samwell Blackwood.
Subsequently, Rhaegar and Leonor discussed specific strategies.
Rhaegar agreed with this view and thought about it for a moment: "Samwell Blackwood, the heir to the Blackwood family, is familiar with me and we can win over him."
After leaving the camp, Rhaegar stretched.
Rhaegar squinted his eyes and watched the glutton's movements.
“Be polite first and then attack, so as not to be offended.”
Sleeping in the wild, it is safer for the two sisters to be together.
The illegitimate son of Earl Blackwood.
Under the night sky, the screams of gluttons sounded, flying from the direction of Harrenhal hidden in the night.
Ever since she tamed Dream Fire, this girl has become more courageous day by day.
The Bracken family is crazy and regards the law as nothing.
Leonor's eyes flashed, and he muttered: "First send people to negotiate with the two families to see their respective attitudes."
Speaking of which, Robb Rivers, leader of the Second Sons, also comes from the Blackwood family.
It was not until late at night that it gradually ended.
The giant dragon flew overhead, and the moonlight was temporarily blocked, making it dark.
If the royal family takes action to overthrow a big noble, it will immediately cause waves and make other nobles fearful.
This giant dragon, which usually sleeps whenever he can and never moves much, is actually a little restless.
I don't know if Allison will be so anxious when he learns that Helena sneaked out of King's Landing.
This is a family that can be won over.
The Blackwoods still had their sanity and only had one conflict with the Riverrun army.
Rhaenyra and Helena walked out hand in hand.
Boom—
“Hiss…”
After circling twice, the glutton landed on the shore of Divine Eye Lake, its huge body covering the heads of the three siblings.
The broad wings are spread wide, the dragon's head is raised high, and it **** its wings and shakes its body.
“Man, what did you find?”
Getting close to the glutton's hind legs, Rhaegar patted the scales and was keenly aware of its abnormality.
Glutton leaned down, the dragon head as big as a house arched over the driver, and a pair of green vertical pupils stared straight at the Divine Eye Lake.
Rhaegar looked along the line of sight.
The surface of the lake was dim under the night, with occasional moonlight scattered and causing slight ripples.
"Roar…"
The glutton roared dullly, and the dragon's head was powerful, signaling the driver to climb up his back.
It smelled an unusual smell.
Just near this blue lake.
Rhaenyra looked at the calm Lake of the God's Eye and said suspiciously, "Rhaegar, your dragon seems to be looking at the Isle of Thousand Faces."
The height and field of vision of dragons are different from those of humans.
Even if the sky is dark, it is still clearly visible under the vertical pupils.
“Hiss…”
The glutton raised a thick hind foot and carved a ravine of dragon's claws on the lawn beside the lake.
The vertical pupils stare at the driver, expressing the meaning.
Rhaegar glanced twice, and the memory of the recent past came to mind.
Helena tamed the Dream Fire, and the two brothers stopped at Thousand Faces Island.
When the glutton left, he left traces of dragon claws on the land of Qianmian Island.
After comparing the two sides, Rhaegar realized the key point and said fiercely: "Mark!"
After many years of contact, he knows the habits of gluttons.
Wandering to many places in Westeros and Essos, he has rich experiences and broad knowledge.
Thanks to the wisdom of dragons, which is not inferior to humans.
The glutton has an excellent memory. He not only holds grudges, but also remembers the places he has been and the wonders he has seen.
However, I never have the habit of leaving marks.
"Qianmian Island..." Lei Jia murmured and found the records about Qianmian Island in his mind.
Twelve thousand years ago, there were no humans in Westeros.
Those who rule the continent are the children of the forest and the giants.
Later, the ancestors of the First Men could not stand the oppression of the old Valyrian people and invaded the continent of Westeros from the Arm of Dorne.
A war between the children of the forest and the ancestors has officially begun.
The war between the two sides is known in history as the "Dawn Era".
No one knows how long the Dawn Era lasted.
Perhaps two thousand years, or more.
Finally, the wise people in both camps made an oath of alliance on Qianmian Island.
The provisions of the oath;
The ancestors owned the coasts, plains, grasslands, mountains and swamps, but the lush forests were always owned by the children of the forests.
And no more weirwood trees are allowed to be cut down in the entire kingdom.
To celebrate the hard-won peace, every weirwood tree on the island was carved with a face to allow the old gods to witness the signing of the oath.
Since then, the ancestors and the children of the forest have maintained peaceful coexistence for four thousand years.
Historically known as; "The Age of Heroes".
Later, the ancestors of the Andals, who were also invaded by Old Valyria, left their homeland, landed from the Five Fingers Peninsula, and launched an attack on the valley.
The Andals had more advanced iron tools, more etiquette, and were more barbaric.
They killed all the children of the forest they met and burned the weirwood forests to the south.
Abandoned the belief in the old gods and brought about the belief in the Seven Gods.
This disaster resulted in the death of a large number of children of the forest, and the peace contract with humans was broken.
For various reasons, the children of the forest moved away from the south of the continent and moved to the north of the Great Wall.
Since then, there has been very little news.
Become a record in the history books.
Thinking of this, Rega was shocked and sighed: "The Free Fortress Empire is really powerful."
Even as powerful as the Targaryen family, they are only in the middle and lower reaches of the forty dragon king families.
The exile Aenar Targaryen said that he followed the prophecy of his daughter Denise Targaryen and moved to Dragonstone to take refuge in advance.
It is better to say that the family power was suppressed and was exiled to the outpost of Dragonstone Island.
“Hiss…”
The glutton was impatient to wait, so he pushed Rhaegar hard, staggered, turned around and crawled down.
Rhaegar steadied his steps and said carefully: "Don't be impatient, we'll come right now."
Climbing up the ladder to the back of the dragon, Rega looked at the two sisters and asked, "Are you going back to rest, or are you going to Qianmian Island with me?"
"I'm going!"
Helena raised her little hand, quickly ran to the glutton's side, grabbed the ladder and climbed up.
Rhaenyra pushed her little **** up and climbed up, also very interested: "Go and have a look."
The three of them climbed onto the dragon's back. The glutton was satisfied and flapped his wings to fly across the God's Eye Lake.
Rhaegar gave up the saddle to his sisters and stood alone on his neck, his silver hair flying in the evening wind.
The glutton glided at low altitude, and the dragon's tail drooped on the lake, causing ripples.
Not long.
Three people and one dragon arrived at Qianmian Island and landed in the core area of the island.
“I'll go check it out first.”
Rhaegar jumped off the dragon's back and saw several thick gray-white weirwood trees.
Weirwood trees are relatively rare in the southern zone.
Nobles who believe in the old gods usually plant a weirwood in the godswood.
Only on Thousand Faces Island can you see multiple weirwoods at one time.
Sasha…
These weirwood trees grow very thickly, and their branches are twisted like the fingers of a witch in a fairy tale.
Luxury red leaves cover the crown of the tree, whistling in the breeze.
Slightly dark and harsh.
As if the old witch was about to cast a spell, she clapped her hands excitedly.
Especially the human faces carved on the gray tree trunks, with bright red tree oil leaking from the eye sockets, look creepy.
Rhaegar touched the hilt of the Dragon Claw sword with one hand and looked around to make sure there was no danger.
He took out a torch to light it up and said, "Come down, there's no one around."
Rhaenyra and Helena climbed off the dragon's back one after another, and each shared a torch.
Looking around, except for a few weirwood trees that add to the gloomy atmosphere, everything is covered with vegetation.
“Glutton, what's here?”
Rhaegar touched the rough bark of the weirwood horn and asked tentatively.
“Hiss…”
The glutton really responded and snorted dully.
followed by.
It has two wings on both sides, and its thick and long dragon tail swings, sweeping across the vegetation on the island.
Wow…
The climate in the Hejian Land is warm and the water and soil are fertile. All the islands grow are shrubs and tropical flowers and plants.
Gluttony: An evil dragon swung its tail and suddenly cleared a large space.
It hasn't stopped yet and continues to clean up.
Qianmian Island is located in the center of Shenyan Lake. It is a rare island in the middle of the lake.
The island is quite large and covers a larger area than an ordinary castle.
But it can't stand up to the huge gluttons wreaking havoc.
In a short period of time, it was completely wasted.
Rhaegar allowed it to act, and he himself was not idle.
There are seven weirwood trees on the island, and Rhaegar explores them one by one.
When touching the last and strongest weirwood.
A sharp voice interrupted suddenly:
“Stop, Prince Targaryen!”
Rhaegar made a move and turned around cautiously.
On the dark hillside, a short figure with a stooped body and a cane emerged from the dark hillside.
