Chapter 72: Memories from Asshai



Anywhere door was a very convenient gadget. Alexander went to Asshai through it. The city was extremely big with big building structures. He couldn't imagine how it was created. The buildings had a deep black color and seemed to absorb the little light that fell on the city.

But the surrounding air spoke about the nature of the city. Depressing and dark. Most of the streets were always empty and those people that he saw also covered their bodies.

The sky above was so black that it allowed close to no sunlight inside the city. He wondered what might have caused it. Even the river flowing through the land was poisonous.

He calmly walked the streets, judging anyone he saw. Till now, he hadn't been able to find someone below category 3. He then became invisible and started investigating. The city allowed anything and everything, from dark to evil practices. Worshiping of any god. He surprisingly found that the biggest temple in the city was dedicated to him, All-father, so he thought about checking it out.

Inside, he found so many sculptures of himself that it gave him a headache. But by far the strangest and the biggest of them was at the end of the hall.

It had various small sculptures kneeling in front of him. The small ones were not just Humans either. Weird humanoid beings were there. Including white walkers.

Then he felt it, inside his head. Like a lock being opened. A lot of information rushed into his brain.

[Memory]

15 thousand years ago.

There was another red-colored moon in the sky, it was smaller than the other, normal one. Where he stood looked like Asshai, but not black or dark. It looked like a flourishing city, A city that he made after advancing people from cave-dwelling barbarians to current knowledgable society. But then, the red moon started to fall. Having no other way of saving people, Alexander used his powers to the fullest.

He flew to the sky and used the strongest blasting curse to obliterate the moon. But sadly, he didn't know that it was filled with strange black liquid. Feeling the dangerous black substance falling on earth. He quickly evacuated as many people as he could.

Most of the part of the falling moon had gone away from Earth, though still in orbit, a lot of its dark liquid fell on earth. Mainly the shadowlands. Wherever it fell, the black liquid integrated itself with the object. The ancient city of Asshai turned black. The grounds around it turned black. The river became poisoned. The sky above it turned black and some people died.

Another large part of the liquid fell on the cursed island, west of Westeros. The whole Island turned black due to it and created mutations in the aboriginal human tribes and animals. It also created various dangerous diseases. Due to some reasons, the island started to have extreme storms in a radius of thousands of miles around it. Making the island inaccessible.

Another small part of it fell in Sothoryos, on an abandoned city. The city also turned black and poisonous. The tribes living around it mutated to mindless cannibal beings. Animals became more dangerous and diseases filled the land.

Some broken parts of the moon also fell in various parts of the world. The moon rocks were red and had red dust at the beginning, but due to falling through the Atmosphere, it turned black and harder. A huge part of it fell in Westeros, mainly Oldtown. The black rock on which the Hightower was built was that moon rock.

To not create more destruction he used magic to put down most of the big meteorites gently.

The craziest part happened after that event. The event created dragons. Yes, for some reason, the moon in the sky was filled with dragon eggs. Later when the eggs hatched many people started to feel magic.

"Well, I know what's west of Westeros. There's a crazy reverse storm there. If you somehow cross that storm then you'll come out into the sunrise seas, which leads to right here. Sothoryos is probably a huge continent with various mysteries, which I'll uncover later. Ulthos is the same as Sothoryos. Also, I think that Sothoryos and Ulthos are connected. At least that's what it looked like from space," Alexander answered.

"Okay, boss. Where are you going next?" Dobby asked.

"Yi Ti, but first. I'm going back to teach Rina archery. She must already be angry at me." he said with a wide smile on his face.

He took out the Anywhere door and crossed it. On the other side, he found his precious little Rina, watching Tom and Jerry with other children in the Starks living room.

"RINA, I am back," he loudly said.

Rina's ears stood up as soon as she heard his voice. She looked towards him with a very excited face and nearly jumped towards him. But then she remembered that she was angry at him.

"I am not talking to Grandpa" she pouted and puffed her chubby cheeks.

"Oh, but why?" Alexander asked, shedding some fake tears.

"You promised to teach me how to use a bow. But you never came," she replied.

"Aw... My sweety. I am sorry. How about I make it up to you? I'll take you with me the next time I go away. We'll travel to the far eastern kingdom of Yi Ti." Alexander suggested.

"Waaaa... Really?" She exclaimed with stars shining in her eyes.

"Yes, Grandpa promise." He gave her his pinky finger and made the kid's version of the unbreakable vow.

Then he suddenly caught her and tickled her. "Hahahaha... Grandpa... Hahaha. I will tickle you too"

She started trying to tickle him but instead pulled his beard. They played for the next hour or so with other kids too. Little Jon was the quick one and Alexandra was the cheerful one. She would laugh at nearly anything. Eric was more of a calm boy but still naughty.
