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.

Braavos took my threat seriously because the next day before noon they were openly surrendering.
Braavos was finally mine, but there were a few rats inside the city that I had to eradicate before moving forward, the iron bank being one of them, they were the main poison inside the city, my city, and I was the antidote.
"The nobles have completely surrendered, my king," Ser Barristan said as he knelt before me.
With a smile, I looked at him and said, "Perfect, send the unsullied to collect all the nobles of the city, including the bankers," To make sure I wouldn't suffer a coup in the future I had to first gather all the rats in one place and then purge the untrustworthy ones, leaving only those that I could trust because they were loyal, or they feared me, either one worked.
Ser Barristan stood up from the floor and said, "As you wish, my king," with that the old knight departed to carry out my orders, leaving me in my office alone.
Now that the city was mine, I had no tangible real reason to stay here, I had my army, and no real opposition on this side of the sea, so I had to start planning my invasion of Westeros.
When I arrived at Braavos I was more than surprised to see the city was completely taken over by the young bear, he had managed to do it in less than a week. That is surprising and terrifying. Just how good was this brat in war, to lead the Dothraki he had to be strong, and to win wars he had to be smart, a really fearsome combination.
"State you business," I was abruptly stopped by an unsullied warrior, pointing his spear at me.
"My name is Oberyn Martell, I was sent here by the Queen," I chuckled, taking a step back.
"I'll let the King now, don't move," Oh the unsullied, always straight to business, no fun, but how nostalgic, it reminds me of the old days, when I was traveling around Essos training among them.
"Rude, at least give me your name," I smiled.
"Lancelot," Lancelot, well that was a weird name for an unsullied, if I remembered correctly their masters force them to change names every day, and their names would usually be something insulting and demeaning.
"Don't worry I'll wait here!" I waved him off.

[Ronard Mormont POV]
Oberyn has arrived.a tad late if you ask but I suppose is the intention what really matters, with his house I had the support of two out of the six great houses in Westeros. the Greyjoy's were a thing of the past so I can't count them.
Now all I had to do was get some ships and move my army to the west, and start planning my strategy, from the top of my head I had many ideas, a lot of them involving rats, for kings landing had thousands of them, but I would have to wait.
"My King," Oberyn bowed.
"Let's get to the point shall we?" I knew what he wanted and he knew what I wanted, so why pretend? "I know the only reason your house is joining us is to destroy the Lannister, which is totally fine, I hate those Lions for the most part too, but what comes after that? After the destruction of you enemies what comes next?" I didn't want allies that would turn their backs at me once their own personal vendetta was complete, I wanted to know to what extent they would stay.
Oberyn looked at me and after a second of humming started to laugh, "A straight to business man, I can respect that don't worry you will have Dorne's loyalty as long as you let us have our retribution.." by the end of that his tone of voice was dark and cold, the complete opposite to his normal cheerful demeanor, as if a switch inside of him had been turned off.
"Then we won't have a problem," I nodded, if all they wanted in exchange of their loyalty was Tywin, the mountain and the other idiot that fucked their family, they could have them, "They are yours to do as you please, but leave Joffrey to me,"
"Then, I will do my best to serve you my king," Oberyn smiled.
