Author Note: This novel is around seventy percent done, so things will start to fall into place and stuff sooner than later!
So if you want to read chapters ahead what I have done so far, be sure to check my patren! I have fourteen chapters ahead!
Also I'm starting a new novel on my ptreon first! But it will come way later on, I will post here once I have 20 chapters at least on patren, I don't know if some of you remember at the beginning of this novel that I said I had a marvel gamer idea, well, I decided to flesh that out, with the first chapter already being on Patren.
For that novel the chapters are around 3000-4000 words per chapter.
The first chapter is 3400 words so yeah big bois

I smiled, pointing my sword towards Myr's army, "Let's go fuckers!"
I could hear my Khalasar galloping towards the gates, raising their swords while crying out with one voice.
Hundreds of arrows whistle through the air, as I cut each and every single one of them, my hand lighted for a second, showing the runes of the left hand of God, I was pushing my body to react to hundreds of hundreds of attacks.
I could hear the cries of pain of my men as arrows hit them; I could also hear them tumble into the ground dead, one by one, but they needed more than that to stop my army, so I continued holding my ground, by this moment all the men I had freed, had either died or were down on the floor bleeding out, as for me, I was slashing at the men that approached the gates, the limited space of the gates helping me to fend them off.
I wasn't unscathed, I had cuts all over my body, nothing serious, the nine percent of them could be considered paper cuts at much, my mind and body were moving and acting in total sync, but I was fighting more than even I could chew, and little by little I was being pushed back.
But unfortunately for Myr, it was already too late, as my Khalasar was already riding pass me, slaughtering the men at the gates like dogs.
"Kill all those who oppose you! Don't show mercy!" I shouted.
"For the Great Khal!" My bloodrider chanted, jumping off his horse near me, "My Khal, allow us to take this city in your name, you had done enough."
I looked at him for a moment considering his offer but decided to wave it off, I wanted to kill the Magister myself, and that I would do, "No, not until the Magister is dead!" I practically growled.
"Then I'll fight by your side!" My bloodrider smiled, rushing into battle.
With a smile, I rush into the castle, cutting everyone that got in my way down with ruthless precision. Every time I swung my into the air, another Myr soldier would fall; by this point, my face was covered in their blood.
My Dothraki besides me now, thoroughly crushing the army inside the castle walls, with no sign of slowing down at all.
---------------------------------
"I will kill him," I finally answered, in front of the door where the Magister was hiding.
With one kick, I busted the door open, behind the door, was the pitiful man that tried to take away everything from me, my ravens were attacking him nonstop, he was bleeding, and crying on the floor, utterly pathetic.
"Please I don't want to die," He begged, crawling to me with tears and snot, hate, anger, disgust, were just a few of the feelings I had for him right now.
I wanted to kill him, I wanted to make him suffer, but Roda was right, once you go down that path there is no turning back, he had to die, but I didn't have to become a monster, I wasn't like him.
"Disgusting," I breathed out cutting his head with a single swift, a part of me was crying this was not enough, but I knew it had to be done, I can't crave into every emotion I feel, or I'll end up becoming a tyrant, no matter how much he deserved to scream and suffer, I had unfortunately to be the better man.
Was I satisfied? No. I wasn't, this was but a moment, a fleeting moment that lasted too little to satiate my thirst for blood, but I was happy somehow, I had avoided going deeper into the void.
"Keeping my sanity is getting harder and harder," I chuckled, as I cleaned my blade from his disgusting blood.
And just like that Myr was mine, while there was still some opposition, by the end of the night, it would be completely under my control.
Taking a deep breath, I decided to let my men take the rest of the city; they would do without me for some hours, I needed some time to gather my thoughts, and rest before going to Tyrosh.
"My Khal?" My bloodrider approached me.
"Take the city, and kill those who oppose you, I need a break," I ordered him.
"As you wish blood of my blood!" My bloodrider said eagerly, probably happy I had trusted him to take the rest of the city, this was like saying I trust you more than I trust my horse kind of thing for them.
*Hrmm. Meditate we must, Yrrss* Roda offered.
"You know what, sure. Let's." I nodded with a smile as I walked out of the castle.

[Melisandre POV]
The fire was showing me things, showing me that I was blind, but the lord of light is kind and caring, and he had illuminated my blinded mind to his glory.
He had shown me I was wrong, that Stannis wasn't the prince that was promised.
No, the real prince that was promised was on the other side of the sea, I didnt knew who he was, or how he looked, but he wasn't on esteros.
The fire had shown me he was having a hard time, fighting the shadows deep within him, he needed my guidance.
And I would give it to him, my guidance, my mind, my body, but first I had to weaken his enemies, I had made his mission harder when I wrongfully thought Stannis was the chosen one.
I had to mend that mistake, or I wouldn't be able to serve under his gracefully light, I had to fix my wrong doings.
"I shall be yours soon, my prince," I promised to the fire, as I started to plan Stannis downfall.
