Chapter 16: Chapter 16

XXXXXXXXXX

Daenerys was at a crossroads.

Intimidated.

Not the word was terrified.

It had been several years since he was on Pentos.

She had married a Khal, Drogo whom she came to love, her brother married her to obtain his army.

It did not go very well, the threat got drunk and ended up dead at the hands of her husband the Khal Dothraki.

Daenerys learned to put up with the injustices of the Dothraki, a wild people who valued power above all else.

When Drogo died, the girl used her body and that of a witch to use sacrificial magic and obtained three dragons.

The eggs given by the magistrate of Pentos as a wedding present hatched and Rhaegal, Viserion, and Drogon hatched.

Those were very difficult days for her.

She had nothing, and her faithful guard, Jorah Mormont, and a small platoon of Dothraki decided to keep her.

I reach the city of Quart.

She was manipulated by a lord, and kidnapped by the witches there. She got rid of them, but it was the first time she heard of Assai and his rebellion, the birth of Assai's king.

He continued his conquest to take Asaptor, Yunkai, and then Meeren. At that time several joined his cause, Ser Barristan a guard of the king that his father had when he lived, Missandei his friend and adviser, Gray Worm his faithful commander and Daario a mercenary who became his bed warmer. .

But news came more and more.

The fall of Yiti.

The birth of the empire of magic, or Assai. It depends on where the information came from.

Daenerys was curious at first.

The years passed, their wars continued.

Rebellions.

The Sons of the Harpy, a terrorist organization led by former leaders of Meeren, Yunkai, and Astapor. And the girl believed that she was sponsored by Volantis and Bravos.

Meanwhile more rumors poured in, from Yiti to Mossovy.

From Mossovy to the cannibal arenas.

From the cannibal sands to the thousand islands.

The conquest of the empire gave them the entire eastern side of Essos in one to two years.

Daenerys was no longer curious, but intimidated by the force and speed with which the empire of magic moved.

But what really terrified her was the fall of Vaes Dothrak.

Daenerys married a Dothraki Khal.

I knew of the strength of these.

The fact that the entire city of the Dothraki fell within a few months shocked and horrified her.

The Dothraki were strong and they came in great numbers, how many khalasar were there in the city, about fifty thousand, a hundred thousand men.

Not counting the power of these on the battlefield.

I speak with his advisers.

These also did not like the news, but the worst was not that, but Lhazar.

The territory of the shepherds was never a threat, they were always peaceful, they were targets of Dothrakis and slavers.

It was a shame.

But really the emperor taking Lhazar made the girl totally intimidated. Although Lhazar was not a threat to them, it was a limit against the slave cities.

She had had nightmares ever since she found out, a man coming up to her and pointing at her. She intimidated asked her for help but nobody came from her, she always woke up when the man forcibly took her hand and attracted her to him, she could never ever see her face.

It was in the last month that new information came in, this truly terrified you, New Ghis was taken over by the empire.

The east, south and north of the slave bay was owned by the empire.

They were surrounded.

Since then, his inner circle argued about it.

The answer was to kill the emperor.

Ser Jorah and Daario wanted that.

Ser Barristan on the other hand, logically said that failing would draw the empire to them with a war they couldn't win.

Daenerys had told him of her dragons, but he replied that he couldn't protect all three cities with just one with them.

Finally Daario said that they should hire assassins, that way there would be no proof that they were involved, even if they spoke they could blame the teachers who fled the cities.

Daenerys was supportive of that plan, and a contract was made with a fairly efficient gang of assassins that Daario knew of from the past.

But the girl was still intimidated.

The empire of magic intimidated him.

Jon listened to the information brought by Arya, the interrogation of the assassins.

The attack was pathetic.

In the market.

Three experts in the use of poisoned knives.

I finish everything before I start.

After two months of rebuilding, those assassins came here thinking it would be easy.

They were crazy, the guards caught them before they could even try.

Arya spent the whole night questioning them.

The girl really liked torturing enemies.

It was a hobby.

Jon looked at her.

"Daenerys Targaryen hired them," she told him.

Jon nodded.

It didn't even surprise him.

-Prepare the men, we will go directly to Meeren. And bring the useless ones we took from New Ghis, let's see if I give them to them or just take the cities- Jon said.

The girl nodded.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

Ser Barristan gave her the information from his informants, and the girl put her head in her hands.

The assassins failed and the emperor headed for Meeren with an army of ten thousand soldiers.

"Prepare defenses," Ser Jorah instructed.

Daenerys denied.

-No…Even if the assassins spoke we can pretend not to know anything, let's not be aggressive- she said.

"I doubt the emperor believes it," Missandei reported.

Daenerys nodded.

-But it will not attack without being attacked, the only sure thing about the empire is that its conquests were in response to attacks on its territories or on itself- she said.

Ser Barristan pitched.

Daenerys turned to him.

-If the worst happens… Can we win? she asked.

The guard looked at her and became thoughtful.

-If the rumors are true, not without sacrificing Yunkai and Astapor- he informed her.

Daenerys nodded.

His dragons were the key to victory and he knew it.

But these could not protect the cities, only her.

The city where the queen is, will be the dragons.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Jon looked at the prepared camp, the queen was waiting for him without a large army like him, clearly a strategy.

When I walk in, a really beautiful ex-slave presents her with a dozen titles.

Jon could do nothing but surreptitiously admire the beautiful women, Queen Daenerys was a classic Valyrian-looking woman his age, with silvery blonde hair, purple eyes, and a slim build. Her body was developed, breasts larger than any of her wives and concubines except Daphne, narrow waist, with a shapely butt.

His advisor also beautiful, with darker teas, black eyes and hair, breasts a little smaller than Daenerys's, long legs and a better shaped butt.

"What can I do for the Emperor of Assai?" she asked.

Sansa almost laughs.

"You can tell me why you sent assassins to kill me," Jon replied calmly.

Daenerys denied everything.

"Denies it?" Jon asked.

"Of course, why would Assai attack?" she asked.

Jon looked at her for a few moments, from the beginning he didn't take his eyes off Daenerys, she was beautiful, and he didn't deny wanting her or the former slave that accompanies her, but he should do things right.

"Arya," he said.

Daenerys saw a younger woman looking at her.

She was beautiful.

In a wild way.

She smiled.

"He did," she said.

Daenerys looked at her in surprise.

"No," she indicated.

"The Dragons are still in the pyramid," Arya said.

"What?" she asked.

"Rhaegal, Viserion, and Drogon," Arya answered.

Daenerys looked at her confused and a crazy idea appeared in her head.

-Exactly…No, you can't help it, yes, we can- answered Arya.

Daenerys paled and got up from her chair intimidated.

Her men looked at her in confusion.

"Did you think that I, the emperor of magic, would not have wives with magic?" Jon asked.

The others saw them.

The boy put his hand on Arya's shoulder.

-My beautiful Arya here, is able to read minds among other things, very useful when interrogating prisoners...or queens- he said.

"Emperor," Daenerys whispered.

I look at this.

-As you know, I don't attack who doesn't attack me, Yiti attacked me, I dominated her. Mossovy, the sands of the cannibals and the thousand islands attacked Assai in the past, I overpowered them. The Dothrakis attacked me, I overpowered them. Nefer and Bazar attacked, I overpowered them. New Ghis attacked, I overpowered her…Meeren attacked me. You have ten seconds to give me a reason, just one. Of not dominating the bay of the slaves- Clarified Jon.

An awkward silence settled over the place.

Daenerys fell into the chair and looked at Jon coldly.

"They didn't give us a choice," she said.

Ser Barristan watched nervously.

Jon raised an eyebrow.

-Option? We never attacked the slave bay - he said.

"But the surroundings," Ser Jorah put in.

Sansa furrowed an eyebrow.

-The east, the north, the south... You have us surrounded emperor... You who slaughter your enemies, you who take entire cities in weeks, you who possess the gift of magic... I was terrified- she admitted.

-We only attack those who attack us- Arya clarified.

"I don't want war," Daenersy admitted.

"You should have thought about it before attempting on the emperor's life," Sansa informed.

-What choice did I have, you say you don't attack those who don't attack you, but Meeren was dominated by masters, those who survived have an organization that attacks me every week, what could I do, what would happen when they decide to attack you, and make me responsible, I admit that it was not a correct decision, I was wrong… But look at my point of view, I am surrounded by the empire, I am at war with slavers, I had to think about my people, I did it, maybe not in the best way, I admit it, but I would never have done it if I really didn't believe it was the last option, I didn't attack when you dominated the Dothrakis, nor Lhazar, but New Ghis… What else could I do? - Said the girl with passion.

Jon looked thoughtful.

-The empire may be good for you, but we know how you rule, with an iron hand, I understand perfectly, I myself executed the former masters of Yunkai, Meeren and Astapor, not in the most honorable way, but I made a decision, my People come before anything else, if you want to conquer us, try, we will fight, we will even die, but do not deny me that my mistake was surprising, I made a decision, bad, but I made it for my people- she finished.

Jon looked at Arya, she was nodding.

Daenerys wasn't lying.

"If I may, your father Jon Snow would have done things differently," Ser Barristan pointed out.

Arya glared at him.

Sansa coldly.

Jon restrained himself from killing the old man.

-As your Being Barristan, I remind you of the great warrior, the stories about you, the legend… Hardly anyone remembers the bad, no. Like when you left the mad king, burn my grandfather and uncle alive, like when you left Joffrey Aguas, execute Ned Stark…You swore to protect the people and obey your king, but you only obeyed your king…Ned Stark could do things different but I'm not Ned Stark, and you're the dog of kings, you talk about honor, but you lost that a long time ago, you talk about doing the right thing, when all you did was kill the enemies of your kings and nod like a dog- Jon reproached him mercilessly.

Ser Barristan lowered his head.

I felt ashamed about it.

-I did a lot of what I regretted, I followed a king who was crazy, another who was interested in nothing more than sleeping with prostitutes and getting drunk, finally the last one who was evil, I was wrong in many of my decisions, but not my queen, his decision may not have been the best, but contrary to me, he did it for his people, a northerner should understand that better than anyone- the old man informed her.

Jon heaved a frustrated sigh.

-Robb Stark is at war against the Lannisters, at least he was when I left- the old man finished giving him some information.

Jon knew that, he found out from the spies, his last information was that Robb married a noblewoman from Volantis.

-Your family was destroyed by mine, and the Baratheons, I will offer you a deal in favor of our blood having harmed you. You accept the blame for an attack against me, but you want to avoid a war, I want compensation, give me one of your cities, and we'll be at peace- offered Jon.

Sansa and Arya didn't say anything.

Daenerys argued with her councillors.

"I'll give you Yunkai, while you wait a month, to get the citizens out," she offered.

Jon nodded.

-One more thing, if this or something similar happens, I will not have any consideration, there will be no negotiation- he reported.

Daenerys nodded.

Jon turned to Ronald Weasley and this nod.

Daenerys watched as soldiers brought men in chains, they were similar to so many she saw in Meeren, Yunkai and Astapo in her conquest.

"Jassin Greengrass, Roson Spell, Raernis Troll…nobles captured on New Ghis and the leaders of the sons of the harpy," Jon informed.

Daenerys watched them in wonder.

-I will give them to you without any price…Take it as a peace offering- finished the emperor.

Daenerys in the throne room looked at her advisors.

"If we find out anything, it's that the emperor will be an enemy... Not only do I now know that he is the son of Ned Stark, but also that his power is not a lie, we can't let him live," Daenerys admitted.

As much as the negotiations ended relatively well.

This confirmed his nightmares.

The emperor said that he did not attack those who did not attack him.

But the way he moved.

The way he looked at others.

It was definitely an enemy.

Maybe now he wasn't attacking them.

But I would in the future.

Ser Jorah nodded.

Darius too.

Even Ser Barristan.

As honorable as he may be, he saw the emperor for what he was.

A conqueror.

"Leaving Meeren and Astapor out of his conquest is ridiculous," admitted the lair.

"Not to mention that when they reach the seven kingdoms and they arrive, the Starks will enjoy the power of an entire continent, how many will be three hundred four hundred thousand soldiers at least," Jorah said.

Daenerys nodded.

The idea of ​​a marriage was good, but I note that the emperor had two wives, three was simply too many.

Even Aegon the conqueror who also practiced Bigamy only had two wives.

No, they had to finish it.

"Assassins clearly won't work, but how about a trap, that he can't escape?" Daario asked.

The others looked at him.

-Yunaki is a good trap- he clarified.

"They will take an army with them to secure the city," Jorah warned.

Daario nodded.

-Sure but there are still the alchemists, if we combine the alchemical resources of Yunaki and Meeren, we can have at least forty liters of Valyrian fire- he said.

Daenerys became thoughtful.

Ser Barristan did not like the idea.

-If they find out in Westeros that she used Valyrian fire to attack, they will brand her like her father, she will lose many allies- he intervened.

"What other option is there?" Daario asked.

Daenerys thought about it.

"And if he survives?" she asked.

-He has to secure the city center first, he must go himself. If we hide the fire in a house with a basement and it explodes nearby, it will take half the city, no matter how much magic it has, it is not immortal… It will not survive- he clarified.

Daenerys became thoughtful.

-gives the order- she finished.
