The sound of one of my man knocking at my door woke me up, it probably meant two things either we were close or someone was stupid enough to attack us in the sea, so with curiosity I hastily dressed up as I scrambled over to the deck to confirm which one was it, happy for either of the two.

"My King, we are two hours away from the coast close to Lys," The captain of my ship stated, pointing with his finger to the map in front of him. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

"Very well," I nodded, it seemed one of my suspicions was right, and I would be reunited with Daenerys soon, it has been almost a month since I last saw her, she must have that beautiful baby bum bigger than when I left her.

My first priority was getting a base in Essos, and Lys would suffice for many purposes, it was on the sea, so it was easily protectable, and it was located close to the Pentos, so travel would be a breeze.

But the one reason that moved me to get this city as a fast as I could was that I didn't really know how much time Daenerys would need to recover, after childbirth, she would be having twins and the medical state of this world was quite lacking, but I would give her all the time she needed on a protected environment.

And Lys was the perfect place for that.

A mercantile city, built on a very fertile island that was very good for agriculture and that at one point was considered a tropical paradise by old Valyrian Dragonlords. This beautiful sunny island would serve as the safe haven I was looking for, for my wife and kid, quite poetic that one of the latest Dragon Ladies is coming back to the island.

But things were easier said than done, and conquering may or may not present its challenges, my ravens had said Lys is protected by high walls and hired sellswords, both navy and land, the navy would be a piece of cake to destroy, but I had yet to see if their army would prove a bigger challenge, after all, numbers don't always win wars. But I would find a way, victory would be mine, one way or another.

But in many aspects it was the right choice, conquering Lys would make me infinitely richer than I was before.

Because. Politically speaking the city was dominated by wealth rather than by birth, so in short, there were no lords, just rich merchants with tons of gold begging to be mine, apparently, Lys is a place where trade is considered a profession more honorable than being a Knight.

But that wasn't all the city was known for, they were renowned in the world for their Pleasure Gardens and Temples dedicated to pleasure, that are said to have the best whores in the known world. I already knew where my men would spend their gold after the conquer.

"Let me know once the land is in sight," I told my men, leaving to my quarters inside the ship.

The Sword was a masterpiece; it could be seen that it was magnificently crafted by a highly skilled blacksmith, it was not as unique as Ice, but it would certainly do the trick when in battle. Whoever made this was very good.

"You didn't have to do this," I smiled, admiring the blade.

"Use it until you get your blade back," Hoster chuckled.

"Aye, that I will," I nodded, Ice would come back to our family, one way or the other.

[Catelyn Stark POV]

Ned was alive and was staying with my father in Riverrun, the gods were smiling at me, they had heard my prayers and helped my husband.

Ned said it was thanks to Ronard that he escaped, that by his hand he was able to survive.

But I could see beyond that, Ronard was trying to manipulate Ned into servitude, I wasn't going to let him. That treacherous Rat would not take advantage of Ned anymore. Stannis would make sure of it, once Ned pledged his loyalty to him.

"Let's see how well you do, little bear," I smiled triumphantly. No matter what he was planning, I would always be one step ahead of him. For my family, I would stop him.

*Ok this bitch is dumb. her IQ must be negative, this motherfucker needs some books and corn somebody help this bitch increase her brainpower,* Unbeknownst to her, a Raven with an eye patch and a black rob was trying hard to calculate her IQ.

[Robb Stark POV]

Father was safe, and the one responsible for it was Ronard, had he foreseen this just how far ahead he had seen this game played out.

Like mother said he was dangerous, but after this, I doubted he was for us. He had rescued father knowing full well that Father would most likely support Stannis.

He had done something for us, we as a whole would never be able to repay, he had united our family, our pack.

But mother was paranoid saying he was trying to manipulate us, to use us. At this point, I was almost sure her ideas and opinions of him were biased on her one-sided hate she had for him. Because I refuse to believe now that he is our enemy and hates us. He had done what I couldn't.

"I wonder why mother hates him so much," I sighed, at first I thought it was for what he did to Theon, but she never liked him, at least not that much to warrant such profound hate.
