It has been one day since I woke up almost death, injured in bed, today I was on my tent talking with my wife, Daenerys insisted that I had to rest one or two days more before moving so here I was finishing off my breakfast in bed as I collected my thoughts. Though my mind is still a bit fuzzy after what it seemed it was a week of endless nightmares, I'm strong enough to start planning.
The Shadow Demon mentioned a champion of darkness, and considering what I had seen in my visions, that champion was the night king attacking people beyond the wall to the north. If this Demon really choose that thing as his champion there is no doubt it won't be easy to defeat it now, this, of course, had something to do with my reincarnation, I doubt it's a coincidence, but the point is I won't win this like I thought I would. Who knows what a demon with that kind of power could give the night king, maybe enough powers to match me.
But, the night king seemed pretty different, like a new person, so perhaps the champion of darkness was someone else. Who knows but whoever it was it would surely bring me troubles.
But no matter what, I will prevail, I will overcome this and show that shadow thing that I will not bow down, no matter how utterly terrifying he might be.
No matter what I decide to do, waiting around in this tent in the plains of Essos isn't getting me any closer to defeating my one true enemy, the still unknown champion of Darkness. All I knew was that he had a connection to the white walkers and that at one point he would be there to fight me, but either way, thinking about its not going to fix the situation, so it's time to stretch my legs and venture forth!
Being scared is not a reason to stop moving forward; fear is something all humans must overcome, and right now is my turn to overcome this.
Taking a deep breath, I decide to head over to war tent where my wife was at the moment, discussing with the generals in my army about strategies and logistics, with a smile I take a seat across from her with a teasing smile, earning a faint smile from her as we both dismissed everyone in the room.
"Morning my Queen," I smiled, seeing her taking charge was kinda sexy, so I decided to give her a kiss for being so diligent.
After my recovery, I moved all my troops to start taking off the camp; after a couple of hours, we were ready to start moving forward once again.
After all that happened here, I was standing outside what our camp was, ready to keep moving with my plans.
It takes a couple of minutes so that my men can confirm they are ready to depart, and once again, we find ourselves on the road.
After eight hours of travel or so, I can see evidence that a bunch of horses we nearby, the grass looks like it was crushed, my Dothraki confirmed someone was here, though the when was uncertain, we knew someone had crossed the path we were crossing.
Deciding to see where this path would lead me, I continue to follow the trails, maybe some Dothraki ran pass here, or the second sons, maybe some merchant, regardless of who, I was curious to find out, if they happened to be Dothraki, it would be a benefit for me.
But I wasn't an idiot, while curiosity was driving me, I wasn't going to let that turn me into a brainless moron, the safest and logical path to ensure I didn't walk into my own grave was to send my Ravens to scout for me.
*CAW! WE WON'T DISAPPOINT YOU! RAVENS IN FORMATION! CAW!* With that Raven squad flew into the horizon, to see what was ahead of us, these little critters really made my life a whole lot easier, without them things would surely be a nightmare for me.
With my ravens on the job, I decided to move slowly, making sure to not advance too much in case they came back with bad news, so as to avoid being forced into battle if I wasn't prepared.
"Be honest with me, can you talk to those Ravens," Daenerys inquired with puzzlement in her purple eyes as she approached me.
"In a way," Half-truths weren't lies, at least that's what I wanted to believe, the less she knew about my powers the safer she would be, but a part of me wanted to tell her, what did I have to lose, she was my wife, she should be the one person in the world to know everything about me, like I should about her.
"That's not cryptic at all," Daenerys deadpanned, and to be fair she was right, I didn't answer her question, I just went around it, like a fox dodging a bullet.
"I suppose, I owe a better answer but later," I chuckled as I saw the Ravens coming back doing some flashy formations as they descended, they had found whatever made these trails and by the amount of time it took them, whatever it was, was close.
* CAW! Go Go Raven Rangers~ Go Go Raven Rangers CAW! ~ Go Go Raven Rangers CAW!
WE ARE SOME Mighty Morphin' Raven Rangers!~* All the Raven sang in unison as they descend, every second doing even more flashy poses.
"Fair enough," Daenerys chuckled as she herself saw the Raven flying like bullets towards us, "But at this point, nothing that isn't you telling me you can speak with them will suffice as an answer, I mean look at them,"
