Dawn Breaks over Westeros
Chap 10 - the Ladder Breaks
Chapter Start
Right after his meeting with the Reynes, Naruto had some dinner and right after, he went to his room to see Melisandre crying and sniffling. Naruto guessed that it was due to the guilt of burning Shireen.
"Hey Mel," Naruto said as he closed the door behind him. "I'm sorry, about that business with Davos. But he brought it up, and I had to lay down the law."
"It is no matter, your grace," Mel said but her sad tone and sniffling told him otherwise.
"You feel guilty, about Shireen," Naruto observed and Melisandre looked down in shame.
"I shouldn't have suggested it. But it was the only option I could think to give Lord Stannis a fighting chance. And…it didn't matter. Half the men abandoned him, and they all died anyway. I helped burn an innocent girl for nothing."
"You did what you could. You provided Stannis a way out, he didn't have to take it. The Red God works in mysterious ways," Naruto said as he cupped her cheeks and wiped away her tears. "Let me help you feel better, my red priestess."
Lemon ALERT!
Naruto pulled Melisandre in for a passionate kiss and the Red Woman melted into the kiss, wrapping her arms around her king and her lover. Naruto undid her necklace and let it fall to the floor while she took off his moonstone broach. Naruto very quickly threw off his his clothes to reveal his strong and powerful physique and semi-hard cock while Melisandre undid her robe and let it fall to the floor, revealing her naked glory. Naruto pulled her in for another passionate kiss, their naked bodies pressed up against one another.
"Well this is exciting," came a voice. Naruto turned sharply, a sword of fire in his hand, pointed at the shadows. Only for Shiera to step into the light, wearing nothing a big fur cloak.
Naruto sighed and dispelled the sword. Shiera was probably the only one woman in the world who could sneak up on him. "You shouldn't sneak up on me. I could have actually hurt you."
"But it was always so much fun 70 years ago in Kings Landing." Shiera teased and Melisandre was utterly confused at what they were talking about.
Naruto noticed this and said, "Lets just say I'm a lot older than I look." Naruto kissed Melisandre, mentally showing his interaction Jon.
Melisandre was shocked as she pulled away. Naruto wasn't the reincarnation of Azor Ahai. He IS Azor Ahai. And he had chosen her as one of his lovers. Words could not describe how touched and honored she felt. She should be prostrating herself before him and pleasing him, not feeling sad over her mistakes. They had led her to the savior. Any trace of sadness was erased in that moment and replaced by intense devotion and affection for her lord, her king and her Master.
"My king, how may I serve you?" Melisandre said with intense devotion, lust and affection for Naruto as she knelt on her knees, looking up at him.
"You can start by worshipping the divine rod of Azor Ahai, my lovely priestess." Naruto teased and Melisandre immediately began to work diligently, fondling his balls and sucking his semi-hard cock, so that she might be blessed with the seed of Azor Ahai.
"Wow, you changed her mood awfully quick." Shiera giggled with the lovely voice of hers.
"She's truly devoted to the Lord of Light, and now, to me." Naruto said as he eyed his oldest lover. "So, not even a day and you want back in my bed already."
"I've never taken another man into my bed. I've stayed loyal to you all this time, Naruto," Shiera said, almost sounding offended but he knew she was just playing. He had looked into the past to see how loyal she had been, never taking another man into her bed and securing him allies and influential servants. "I've never wanted anyone as much as I wanted you. You are the man that I love, the only one worthy to be my partner. Even knowing your true identity didn't change that. I love you, I always have, and I will never let you go again."
"I love you as well, Shiera. I loved you the longest of all my women and that hasn't changed. Come, let us celebrate our reunion. Join the party," Naruto wiggled his eyebrows. Shiera undid her fur cloak, letting it fall to the floor, and as he had expected, she was completely naked underneath.
As Melisandre dutifully sucked his fully hardened cock, Naruto placed a hand on her head, enticing the Red Witch further. As he groaned from her skillful sucking, Naruto took a second to admire Shiera and her body. She was perfect, truly the most beautiful woman to ever grace Westeros.
Shiera sauntered over to her lover slowly and sensually. When she reached him her hands caressed his face and pulled him in for a passionate kiss, their tongues exploring each other's mouths. As they kissed, she pulled his right hand down towards her perfectly shaved cunt and allowed Naruto to feel his prize. Truly, her pussy was luscious; a nice light pink color, her outer lips as soft as cotton, her inner walls smoother than velvet, yet warmer, tighter, and wetter than any other pussy he had fucked across his many lives.
Naruto began to finger Shiera as he whispered in her ear while Melisandre continued to suck him off. "Mm, it been many years since I've had the pleasure of fucking this beautiful cunt. And just like back then, it's all mine. Just like the rest of you."
"Ah, Naruto," Shiera moaned as hands touched her in her most sacred place for the first time in 70 years. "I need you. I'm all yours."
"Prove it, then." Naruto said cheekily as he withdrew his hand from her cunt, causing her to whine a bit at the loss of his skillful hands. "Help Melisandre suck my cock."
Shiera's hungrily looked at his dick which Melisandre just released as she took a gasp of air. Shiera took opportunity to take Melisandre's place and swallowed down the whole cock in one go without hesitation. Naruto gasped as he suddenly felt Shiera's mouth suck on his tool, he felt her tongue coil around his hard shaft as she bobbed her head up and down. 'Guess 70 years of staying loyal to me has left her with a lot of pent up lust.' Naruto chuckled at the thought before groaning as Melisandre played with his balls, sucking on one and the licking along the base of the shaft.
With the double blowjob, it didn't take much longer for him to blow his load down Shiera's throat, filling her stomach with his extra hot sperm. Naruto was recovering his breath as he watched Melisandre lick up the semen that splashed on Shiera's face. The sight was enough to get back to him full mast in an instant.
Naruto wasn't sure what, but between Melisandre's new-found devotion and adoration for him, and Shiera's 70 long pent up lust and obvious love and devotion to him, he was really getting into this whole roleplay thing they were doing, where he was the dominating divine god, and the two beauties who had just sucked him off were his lusty and submissive priestesses who were responsible for satisfying all his sexual desires.
Naruto sat on the bed and said to Melisandre and Shiera, playing up the whole roleplay thing "Melisandre, it's time for you receive the seed of Azor Ahai properly. Shiera, come here and sit on my face. I haven't tasted that perfect cunt of yours in ages."
Both of the lovely ladies crawled onto the bed. Shiera climbed on top of Naruto's face. Naruto reached behind her and grabbed Shiera by her delicious ass firmly. Naruto used his tongue to lick and caress her womanhood.
Melisandre rose up and sank herself down onto Naruto's pole. The engorged cock pushed deep inside of Melisandre's tight body. Melisandre gasped as she came around Naruto's cock. He was even bigger now that his power was restored.
Melisandre grabbed Naruto's torso and drove herself down onto his huge cock to fill herself up completely. Each and every thrust hit the entrance to her womb. Her wet flesh connected with Naruto's firm thighs the further and deeper she shoved herself down upon his mighty rod. Naruto let go of Shiera's ass, and gripped Melisandre's hips, thrusting up as she came down on him. His size, his thickness, and the force of his thrusts quickly pushed her over the edge within a few minutes, coating his cock again with her love juices.
Melisandre received a nice and warm kiss from Shiera and it quickly devolved into a makeout session between Melisandre and Shiera. Shiera moaned into Melisandre's mouth as Melisandre played with Shiera's luscious and perfect breasts. Between Melisandre's fondling and Naruto's vigourous licking, it wasn't long before Shiera came for the first time in 70 years, almost screaming into Melisandre's mouth as Shiera unleashed a torrent of her sweet nectar onto Naruto's face, which he eagerly lapped up. Shiera removed herself from Naruto's face and lay back, needing a little rest from that intense orgasm.
Naruto then gripped Melisandre's hips and flipped her over so she was on her back and he thrust into her wet, dripping snatch. Melisandre, in response to his powerful and quick thrusts, wrapped her legs around his waist to draw him further into her and her arms wrapped around his muscled back. Naruto groped her ass as he fucked her and kissed his Red Priestess smooth neck.
"I'm getting close," Melisandre announced, "That's the spot…that's the spot right there, My Lord!"
"Take my seed, Melisandre! Accept the royal load of Azor Ahai and bear me a son!" Naruto exclaimed. The idea of being blessed with the son of Azor Ahai pushed her over the edge and she exploded around his cock. Her climax pushed Naruto over the edge and he unleashed his seed inside of her, filling her fertile womb completely.
"Why don't we let you rest, darling," Naruto said as he pulled out Melisandre and made his way over to Shiera. Naruto pulled her onto his lap, his massive pole rubbing the outer lips of her cunt, teasing her opening. She smiled, knowing what was next. The woman straddled his hips, her legs tightly around him. He cupped her ass in his hands, before she rose up.
"Oh God," Shiera breathed heavily whilst she impaled down on his thick rod, feeling it stretch her to her limits. It had been too long since he had ravaged her perfect body. No one could push her to her boundaries as much as this piece of male perfection did.
"Yes, so good," Naruto grunted as she rose up and sank down on him, riding him. The perfect walls of her cunt caressed his manhood, as she worked up a tempo riding him. "You're so tight, wet, and warm. And all mine."
"This pussy belongs to you, Naruto," Shiera stated in a lustful moan; she pushed herself up and sank back down, and continued her bouncing. She breathed in and out, when Naruto thrust into her, hitting her and causing her to throw her head back with a scream.
Naruto was in heaven when his member was enveloped in her warm tightness, wrapped around him, and squeezed around his cock. She rocked up and down, back and forth, and really picked up a steady and heavy pace. Naruto brought his head down and sucked on her tits, sucking and nibbling on one nipple before switching to another. She rode him, gyrating her hips around him. His thick cock jammed into her hot cunt when she rode him until she began screaming.
"Yes," Shiera panted, feeling another orgasm wash through her body when Naruto rocked her with his cock. "More! Pound me harder!"
Naruto complied and pounded her harder, thrusting his cock into her, and causing her to bend back. He used the leverage to his advantage, slamming his thick member into her pussy, driving it into her sopping wet core. Each thrust buried deeper into her. Shiera wrapped her hands around him and sank her nails into his back.
"Oh, so good," Naruto breathed as he cupped her ass.
"You're the best," Shiera panted as his cock slid in and out of her, when she felt another earth-shattering orgasm rock her body. She was not sure how much more she could take and Naruto kept pounding into her, reducing her to putty in his hands.
Naruto smiled, and pulled out of her and Shiera whined at the loss but not for long, when she found herself lying flat on the bed with her legs spread, with Naruto towering over her.
She tingled with anticipation, when Naruto's big cock lined up with her pussy and slammed into her. The woman clutched the sheets he pushed in and out of her, thrusting into her, rapidly hammering her, the lewd sounds of his pelvis smashing against her perfect ass with every thrust filling the air.
"I love how tight your sinfully beautiful body is, Shiera. Your pussy was practically made for my cock." Naruto breathed as he moved his hands to grope and play with her breasts as he hammered her, increasing her pleasure as he peppered her neck with kisses.
Shiera gasped as she felt her eyes roll into the back of her head. She felt this perfect male sheathe himself inside of her, using her for his own pleasure, pushing her to her limit with his huge tool.
Shiera looked back with a submissive and lustful look. "It's not-ah- safe day for me. If you cum, I might get pregnant, Naruto."
"Maybe that's what I want." Naruto said as whispered in her ear, pounding her harder. smiling when he felt her next orgasm coming and knew he was about to blow his own load. "I wonder, will it be a son as handsome and talented as his father, or a daughter as beautiful as her mother? Either way, you will give me a child, my love."
"Yes, please, cum inside me! I want you to impregnate me! I want your baby!" Shiera panted heavily, when she continued to speared by the thick cock of this powerful man.
She had another orgasm where she saw stars and then soon after Naruto finally exploded. Shiera screamed when his cock thrust into her, spurting his thick, juicy cum into her, painting her insides milky white. She screamed out loud.
"Wow," Shiera breathed as Naruto pulled out and flipped them over so now his back was on the mattress and Shiera laid on top of his chest, "You're amazing, Naruto."
"The night is still young, my lovelies," Naruto said as Melisandre recovered and crawled over to them. "That and I did kinda promise you both a child. Would be a shame to stop now."
Lemon End
Next Morning
With Sansa
Naruto left the dining hall after breakfast and head to the south balcony where Sansa was standing. Naruto had the Stark cloak over his armor. Sansa gives Naruto a smile before she looks out to watch the snow fall.
"We need to talk, Sansa. My spies reported that the Knights of the Vale allied with the Bolton's. Why did they betray them?" Naruto asked. "Why would Lord Baelish do that? He sold you to the Bolton's."
"He did," Sansa said.
"You don't trust him, I hope," Naruto asks.
"Only a fool would trust Littlefinger," Sansa said. Naruto looked at her pointedly and she felt shame for hiding it. "I should have told you about him, about the Knights of the Vale. I'm sorry."
"We need to trust each other. You need to trust me. We can't fight a war amongst ourselves. We already have enough enemies from all corners in the Seven Kingdoms." Naruto said. "I know that you have been hurt, and abused, but I am not like them. I'm not Joffrey, Cersei, or Ramsay. Your father and even your mother would've rather seen us stand together than have us at each other's throats. Trust in me, Sansa. I will always look out for you and in turn, I know you'll look do the same for me."
Sansa nods her head as Naruto embraces her and kisses her on her forehead. Sansa then did something unexpected and kisses him on the lips, which he was surprised a bit. "Are you sure? I know we're cousin's, so it isn't really considered incest but I'm already sharing my bed with 3 other women and at least 1 more is likely to join them." He asked her when she pulled away.
"I want to be with someone who isn't going to abuse me like Joffrey and Ramsay. You may not be the same Jon I knew. I-I'm ashamed to admit it, but I like this version of you better. My feelings for you have grown beyond sibling affection," Sansa said and she leaned in for another kiss.
"As long as you are sure this is what you want." Naruto said as he returned the kiss in kind before he pulled away.
"A raven came from the Citadel. A white raven. Winter is here." Sansa said.
"Well, Ned always promised, didn't he?" Naruto said. They shared a laugh and Naruto adopted a serious expression.
"Come with me. There is something we need to do." Naruto said as she followed him out into the Godswood. They came into the Godswood, and a dozen Stark guards stood in their way.
"Are they all here?" Naruto asked.
"They arrived just moments before you did, my Lord." The Stark guard said.
"Good, make sure nobody else ge's past you." Naruto ordered and the guard nodded.
Naruto and Sansa walked past the guards and behind the Heart tree to see Yohn Royce, Lady Waynewood, Arthur Dayne, Gerold Hightower, Shiera, Lord Reyne, and Lord Tarbeck. There was also a young blonde man with blue eyes.
"Everyone is here, your grace," Arthur said and some of the occupants looked at him in confusion.
"I was declared King in the North by the Umbers," Naruto explained, which made Lord Royce, Lady Waynewood, Lord Reyne and Tarbeck widen their eyes, as they had called him Lord.
"Apologies, Your Grace, we were not aware," Lady Waynewood said as she and the others made to bow, but Naruto stopped them by holding his hand up.
"It's fine, Lady Waynewood, My lords. I'm not gonna break your legs for one little breach of decorum. Besides, it will all be made official when the other Northern Lords get here in two days, I'm sure." Naruto waved away.
"I believe introductions are in order though," Naruto said, as he held his hand to the young blonde man. "King Jon Stark," Naruto said as he was wearing his glamour necklace. Just for a little bit longer and then he could take it off.
"Ser Harold Hardyng, Your Grace," The young blonde man greeted.
"Oh, that's right. You're Jon Arryn's grandnephew through his sister, Lady Alys Arryn, right?" Naruto asked.
"That is correct, my lord," Harold said, happy that Lord Stark knew who he was. He had always felt somewhat unimportant his whole life, at least until he was named Lord Robin's heir. He felt honored that a distinguished war hero like Jon Stark felt Harold was important enough to know about.
"Now that introductions are done, we have some business to take discuss. Baelish." Naruto brought up.
"I heard talk about him." Lord Tarbeck said, "Lord of a lowly house in the Vale, yet over the course of the first Greyjoy Rebellion and the War of the Five Kings, he became Master of Coin, Lord of Harrenhal, and now he's acting Lord of the Vale."
"If young Harold here dies, he will be Lord of the Vale. Something that must not happen." Lord Yohn said. Harold was confused.
"What about Lord Robin, Lord Royce? Is he not Lord of the Vale?" Harold asked.
"He isn't, young Harold. He's not even Jon's trueborn son," Lady Waynewood said, shocking Harold, Sansa, and everyone present except Royce, Waynewood, and Naruto.
"W-What? How is that even possible?" Sansa asked, as she was once again confronted with someone she knew might be an illegitimate son being passed off as someone else's son.
"Jon Arryn." Naruto said, causing the others to look at him. "Lord Royce and Lady Waynewood explained this to me yesterday evening. In his youth, Jon Arryn had a strong build, blonde hair, and blue eyes. Even when he died, he was still as strong as a bull. The Arryn's, like the Baratheon's, have one of them most unbroken lines in Westeros. Unlike the Baratheon's, it is possible for Arryn's to inherit their mother's features occasionally. But Robin Arryn has neither of his parents features. Instead of blonde or Tully red hair, he has brown hair. Instead of blue eyes of his parents, he has black eyes."
"If Robin had inherited his parents features, we would have never questioned his legitimacy. But he didn't." Lord Royce said. "Young Harold looks just like Jon did in our youth."
"And young Baelish looked similar to how Robin does when he was young. Brown hair, black eyes, and a weak constitution." Lady Waynewood said and Sansa understood.
"You believe that Robin is Baelish's bastard son." Sansa stated.
"Believe? It's a fact. You need only compare young Harold and yourself to Robin to see he looks nothing like his parents." Royce snorted.
"I also have it on good authority that he betrayed Ned Stark to Cersei and Joffrey," Naruto said as he quickly recounted the tale to the others.
"If I may, Your Grace, you yourself were on the Wall when this happened. Alastor and myself were in Essos when this happened and no-one but those gathered here know it, so we could act as witnesses in this case. Nobody would be able to disapprove it." Tion Reyne offered.
"Thank you, Lord Tion." Naruto thanked as he turned to Sansa. "The reason I asked you here, is because I have reason to suspect that you know of some other crimes Baelish has committed, specifically against the Vale. Please tell us."
Sansa appeared a bit hesitant as all eyes fell on her, suddenly feeling like she was back in King Roberts tent near the Darry all those years ago, so Naruto held her hand in his and gave her a comforting squeeze, which gave her the push she needed.
"Baelish conspired with Lysa Arryn to have Lord Jon Arryn killed." Sansa admitted and Lord Royce and Lady Waynewood were furious.
"What!? How!?" Lord Royce demanded to know how they had killed his old friend and his lord.
"Baelish bought Tears of Lys and gave them to Lysa. Lysa was Lord Arryn's wife, so she was able to slip it into his wine after it had already been taste-tested." Sansa said, and Royce and Waynewood saw how that would have been possible. Jon was always a bit too honorable for his own good, living up to his House Words of 'High as Honor', but he was not dumb. He naturally would have employed taste testers while in King's Landing.
"How did you come to learn of this, Lady Sansa?" Harold asked.
"Lysa was in the main hall with Baelish and me. She had threatened to toss me out the Moon Door when Baelish managed to talk her down. She then became hysterical and began talking about how she killed Jon Arryn for him. And he said he only loved her sister, my mother, and pushed her out the Moon Door to her death." Sansa said and Naruto rubbed her arm.
"My Lords, I think we have all the evidence we need to take care of Baelish once and for all." Naruto said and they all nodded. "Sansa, at this meeting in 2 days, we'll put him in his place. End his threat to the North and the Vale and make him pay for his crimes."
Sansa nods her head in understanding.
2 days later
At last, all the Lords of the North arrived.
Naruto sat at the head of the Table as Sansa was sitting to Naruto's right while Val sat on his left. Arthur Dayne and Gerold Hightower stood behind Naruto but they were cloaked. Melisandre was by the door while Shiera was standing off to the side of the wall near the head table, both watching with interest.
"You can't expect the Knights of the Vale to side with Wildling invaders." Ser Lyn Corbray said.
"We didn't invade. We were invited." Tormund said.
"Not by me." Ser Lyn Corbray said as he sits back down.
Naruto stands up immediately. "The Free Folk, the Northerners, and the Knights of the Vale fought bravely, fought together and we won," Naruto said bringing silence to the room. "Ned Stark used to say, we find our true friends on the battlefield."
Cley Cerwyn stands up. "The Bolton's are defeated. The war is over. Winter has come. If the maesters are right, it'll be the coldest one in a thousand years. We should ride home, and wait out the coming storms."
"The war is NOT over," Naruto said harshly. "The true war has only just begun. Unlike you, Lord Cerwyn, the true enemy won't wait out the storm. He IS the storm." This caused Lord Cerwyn to sit back down as the room began to talk once again.
Naruto's eyes dart to Petyr Baelish who was leaning with his back against the wall. He has yet to say anything but he was watching with great interest.
After a couple of minutes of the Lords just talking to one another, Maege Mormont stands up.
"Your son was butchered at the Red Wedding, Lord Flint." Lady Mormont said in a loud voice. This caused all chatter to stop. "but you refused the call." Lady Mormont turns to Lord Glover. "You swore allegiance to House Stark, Lord Mazin, but in their hour of greatest need, you refused the call. And you, Lord Cerwyn, your father was skinned alive by Ramsay Bolton. Still, you refused the call." Lady Mormont said in a loud voice. This caused Lord Cerwyn to bow his head down in shame. "But House Mormont remembers. The North remembers. We know no King, but the King in the North whose name is Stark." Lady Maege Mormont said in a very loud voice. This caused several lords to nod their heads in agreement. These words cause Sansa to smile as well. Naruto and Val look on. "I don't care if he's a bastard. Stark blood runs through his veins and Robb chose him as his successor. He's my King, from this day until his last day." Maege Mormont declares.
Silence filled the chamber as Lady Mormont sits back down.
Smalljon Umber took the moment to stand up and address the gathered Lords. "Many of you know the Umbers. We're farther north than any of you fuckers. When the Wildling's come down, we always fight them first. Some years ago, one of them raped and murdered my sister. So, when I heard that Jon Stark had brought more than 40,000 of them behind the wall, I admit, I was tempted to break my faith with House Stark. But I stayed true to them, because I would have dishonored my father, my ancestors, and my own children. At the end of the day, I'd rather die fighting beside a Stark, than bury my head in the snow and be the Bolton Bastard's little bitch like some of you chose!" Umber said crudely, directed at the houses that didn't support the Starks. "Some you didn't believe we would see another king in our time. But you were wrong! Jon Stark avenged the Red Wedding. He is the White Wolf." He said as he draws his sword. "The King in the North." In saying that, he places his sword downwards and kneels before Naruto, with is Uncle's Mors and Hother doing the same.
Lady Dustin stood up and addressed the Lords. "I hated Ned Stark for leaving my husband and brother's body to rot in Dorne during the Rebellion. I won't deny it, every Northern Lord hear knows it. My father and I sided with Roose Bolton because our sister was married to him before her death and gave him a son, a boy I loved like my own son, Domeric. Jon Stark could have had us all killed, even when we realized the error of our ways. Yet, he showed mercy and welcomed us back under House Starks banner. For that, House Dustin and House Ryswell will follow him until our dying breaths, as our King." With that, Lady Dustin, her siblings and Lord Ryswell all knelt before him.
Lord Mazin stands up and he looks very sorry indeed. An apologetic look appeared on his face as he looks at Naruto and Sansa. "I did not fight beside you on the field and I will regret that until my dying day. A man can only admit when he was wrong and ask for forgiveness."
Everyone turns to look at Naruto to see and hear what he would say.
"There's nothing to forgive, my Lord," Naruto said.
"There will be more fights to come. House Mazin will stand behind House Stark as we have for a thousand years. And I will stand behind Jon Stark." Lord Mazin said as he draws his sword and holds it up high. "The King in the North!" he said as he bends the knee besides Lord Manderly.
"The King in the North!" Other Bannerman said.
Soon the room was filled with chants of "The King in the North!"
Naruto stood up. He looked at Sansa, Val, Melisandre and Shiera and they all give him a warm smile.
Naruto brings his hands up to call for silence. It took a few moments for the chants to die down.
"Thank you, my lords. I swear, before the Old Gods, I shall lead you all as best as I can. Now, we have some business to take care of. Please, take your seats." They all do so.
"Melisandre of Asshai, stand before me." Melisandre comes up from the back of the room and stands before him.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" she asked, voice smooth and seductive but devoid of any emotion.
"It's not what we want, it's what honor demands." Sansa, on the other hand, just sounded bored and unaffected.
Without missing a beat, Melisandre shot back, "And what does honor demand?"
"That I defend my family from those who would harm us. That I defend the North from those who would seek to betray us." Naruto said, and Baelish was watching this whole thing play out.
"Very well, then," Melisandre replied, with the slightest edge to her voice. "Do with me as you will."
After a short pause, Sansa did so.
"You stand accused of murder. You stand accused of treason." Sansa said and everyone was on edge, anxiety rising.
But it quickly abated with Sansa's next sentence. "How do you answer these charges… Lord Baelish?"
The Great Hall of Winterfell was quiet enough to hear a pin drop.
Eventually, it was Melisandre who spoke up. "Lady Sansa asked you a question, Lord Baelish."
A moment later, Littlefinger finally swaggered forward, still confidence in his step. "Lady Sansa, Your Grace, forgive me…You have me at a loss."
As cool as icy steel, Sansa leaned forward an inch, an expression of mock concern on her beautiful face. "Which charges confuse you?" she asked sweetly, and then her voice hardened. "Let's start with the simplest one. You murdered my aunt, Lysa Arryn. You pushed her through the Moon Door and watched her fall – do you deny it?"
Baelish's voice was quiet but calm as he addressed everyone. "I am afraid that is not true. She had Lady Sansa's head forced through the Moon Door and was threatening to throw her out. I was able to talk my wife down and pull Sansa away from her. It was a good thing I did, because my dear wife slipped and fell through the Moon Door when she stood. A great loss, none more so for the Lord Robin and myself."
Naruto and Sansa shared quick glances with each other. Clearly, Baelish had found out about their meeting and prepared his responses in advance. Naruto continued "You stand accused of murdering Jon Arryn. You stand accused of giving Lysa Arryn tears of Lys to poison him. Sansa was there when Lysa Arryn admitted it outloud before she 'fell' through the Moon Door. Do you deny that?"
Littlefinger steeled himself as he prepared his response, "Whatever my beloved wife might have told you, Lady Sansa, while you were with her, she was a troubled woman after losing so many children. She was paranoid and saw enemies everywhere. She even created enemies in her own mind, like she did when she believed I had romantic feelings for you, which is what led to her death. Anything she may have said, was likely born of her own delusions and cannot truly be held as truth."
'Hmm, I'll give him this. He does have a silver-tongue,' Naruto thought with a certain grudging respect.
"You got Aunt Lysa to send a letter to our parents telling them it was the Lannisters who killed Jon Arryn when really it was you. The whole conflict between the Starks and the Lannisters, it was you who started it, do you deny it?" Sansa pressed.
"I never said anything to Lysa about telling her to claim it was the Lannisters. Jon Arryn was very advanced in age. Most men do not live as long as he did. Whatever illness he suffered from was likely to take him quickly. The fact that he died so suddenly likely made Lysa afraid, and as I said earlier, she was very paranoid after losing her other children with Jon, and likely believed it was the Lannisters. Lord Tywin's time as the Hand of the King had not been forgotten and he was the most obvious choice to take Lord Arryn's place," Baelish countered.
Sansa pressed on. "You conspired with Joffrey Baratheon and Cersei Lannister to betray our father, Ned Stark." Her voice hardened. "Thanks to your treachery, he was imprisoned, and later executed, on false charges of treason. Do you deny it?"
Littlefinger countered again with that signature smirk of his, "Lady Sansa, this is all quite outrageous. I cannot be held accountable for what promises Joffrey and Cersei made and decided to not keep. Joffrey did whatever he wanted, and well, he was always a bit bloodthirsty."
"Except you can be held accountable, Lord Baelish," Naruto said, as he began, "Janos Slynt, the former Commander of the City Watch, was there that day. He was all too eager to rub it in my face, about how he betrayed Ned Stark. He even told me how when you came to him with the offer Ned Stark had, you gave him the one the Lannister's proposed, and he betrayed Ned Stark in the throne room when the time came."
"And yet, where is Lord Slynt?" Baelish asked, smirk present.
"He's dead. He refused to follow my orders when I became Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, so I cut off his head. I will admit I probably enjoyed it a little too much." Naruto admitted with a shrug.
"So, I'm afraid this story is little more than speculation on your part, you grace," Baelish said, smirk still present.
"If I may interject, your grace," Lord Tion Reyne said as he stepped forward, "Myself and my nephew, Lord Alastor, can confirm your story. We were there that day." Baelish, for the first time, was at a loss of who this was. He had a fairly good idea who everyone else was, except that pretty lady with the dual eye colors, but these Lords, he had no idea.
"Please proceed, Lord Tion, Lord Alastor" Naruto said.
"It was a rather intriguing day, to say the least. We were in the room, disguised as Gold Cloaks, but we were on the very edge of the room, so we did not partake in the slaughter. Lord Stark came into the throne room with his retinue and handed Ser Barristan Selmy Robert's last will and testament. He had proclaimed Lord Stark protector of the Realm, at least until Prince Joffrey was a little older. Cersei had the paper torn up, telling Lord Stark that he should bend the knee, and Lord Stark countered by saying the Joffrey had no claim on the throne."
"The situation devolved after that, Your Grace," Lord Alastor continued, "Cersei's men moved to arrest Lord Stark and Lord Stark ordered his men to take the Queen and Joffrey into custody. It was then that the City Watch turned on the Starks and slaughtered the entire retinue, except for Lord Stark. Baelish had pulled the dagger from Lord Stark's belt, held it against his throat, and whispered 'I did warn you not to trust me.'"
"Hmm, interesting," Naruto said outloud, stroking his chin before he turned to Lady Sansa, "Sansa, in court the day before Lord Eddard was executed, you plead for his life, didn't you?"
"I did," Sansa said solemnly, "I am ashamed to admit that I was still enamored with him then and did not yet see Joffrey's true nature, but I didn't want my father to die either. I plead for mercy, and Joffrey agreed to spare him, as long as he publicly confessed to being guilty and proclaimed Joffrey the rightful king. You all know what happened afterwards."
"This is the part that many are unaware of, my Lady," Lord Tion said, "We had a chance to speak with the Sandor Clegane, known as the Hound, while he was off-duty one night after Lord Stark's execution. After he had a few drinks, he revealed to us, that only one person had visited Joffrey that night before your father's execution, and it was Lord Baelish. Clegane would have known this because he was on duty that night."
"This is utterly ridiculous. Your grace, these are false charges and slander on my good name." Baelish said.
"You once told Lord Varys, that 'Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder.'" Sansa said, Baelish turning back to her, his eyes wide with shock. Only Varys should know that!
The Northern Lords were glaring at Baelish after they saw his eyes widen, as they knew now that he was responsible for Lord Eddards death. Galbert Glover, Maege Mormont, and Howland Reed looked they were barely stopping themselves from getting up and gutting Baelish right then and there.
"Your Grace," Lord Yohn announced, "Myself and Lady Waynewood have several charges to bring before the accused."
"Proceed, Lord Royce," Naruto invited with a gesture of his hand and Lord Yohn stepped forward, bringing Ser Harold with him.
"Jon Arryn was 80 years old at the time of his death. By that point, the color had faded from his hair. Yet, Ser Harold here is Jon's grandnephew through Jon's sister, the Lady Alys Arryn. In fact, I can tell you all that young Harold looks exactly like Jon did in his youth. Same blonde hair, blue eyes, and strong build. Even his face is the same." Lord Yohn said.
"Now, Lysa Arryn was always a bit troubled, but she still had strong Tully features of their red hair and blue eyes. Now, many you may be wondering where I'm going with this, well worry not. It will all be revealed in a moment. Lord Robin, if you would come forward, please."
Lord Robin came out of the crowd, to Baelish's shock, guided by two of Lord Yohn's sons. They were kind of forcing him along. Lord Yohn turned him around so everyone could see him. "As many of you can see, Lord Robin has neither blonde or red hair, and he doesn't have blue eyes. He has brown hair and black eyes." Lord Yohn then stood him next to Lord Baelish. "Look familiar?"
Many of the Lords started to see a resemblance between Baelish and Robin, and their eyes widened when they made the connection.
"My Lords and Ladies," Lady Waynewood said as she stood next to Lord Yohn, "What Lord Yohn and I are saying, is that Baelish cuckcolded Lord Jon with Lady Lysa and committed bloodline theft, passing their bastard of as an Arryn. Robin is not an Arryn at all, but rather a Stone."
Murmurs started to spread through the crowd before shouts from the Vale Lords started, calling Baelish a traitor, backstabber, and calling Lord Robin a bastard.
"Quiet! I am your Lord and I will make you all fly!" Robin screamed.
"You are not our Lord, bastard!" Lyn Corbray shouted.
"No Vale Lord will ever follow a bastard posing as Jon Arryn's son!" Lord Hunter shouted.
"Execute him!" One Vale lord shouted.
"Send him to the Wall so he can die in the cold!" Another Vale Lord shouted.
Naruto rose in his seat and held up his hand, silencing the Lords. "Lord Baelish, after careful review of the presented evidence, I find you guilty of betraying Ned Stark and ensuring his unjust execution. I find you guilty of cuckolding Lord Jon Arryn and committing bloodline theft of the Arryn line. I find you guilty of directly causing the War of the Five Kings, which nearly saw the extinction of House Stark."
Baelish pursed his lips and gritted his teeth, as he realized he had been had. The Game was up. He had lost. But there was still one card left to play.
"Very well," Baelish said, still keeping up his façade of an innocent man, "I can see I will get no justice here. I demand a trial by combat."
More shouts arose but Naruto quickly silenced them and asked, "Would anyone here stand for Lord Baelish?"
There a couple Lords that looked like they might, due to owing Baelish money or favors, but they knew they'd likely be damning their house to oblivion if they helped this man. So, they figured it would be better for them and their families to let him die.
"Looks like you will have to stand for yourself, Lord Baelish." Naruto commented. "Normally, in the North, the man who passes the sentence swings the sword. But your crimes in the Vale are far older. Lord Yohn, would you pass the Vale's Justice on Baelish?"
"I would honored, Your Grace." Lord Yohn said.
"Let's take this outside." Naruto said as they all left for the courtyard, while Baelish was hauled out there.
Courtyard
Everyone was gathered in a circle while Baelish and Yohn stood apart from each other. "Reminds you of Riverun all those years ago, when you challenged Lord Brandon for lady Catelyn's hand, doesn't it?" Lord Yohn taunted.
"I have no intention of it ending like it did back then, Lord Yohn." Baelish said as he tried to keep his anger in check. "You seem to enjoying this."
"I promised myself when I figured out what you did, that I would be the one holding the axe that fell upon your neck, Littlefinger. It's not an axe, but it will do." Yohn held his sword at Baelish, "This is where your ladder breaks, Baelish."
"Fight!" Naruto announced.
Baelish swung sloppily to decapitate Yohn but he maneuvered his head out of the way. Baelish swung again at Yohn's chest but Yohn parried the blow. Baelish gripped his sword tightly and swung at Yohn's head, but Yohn parried the strike and stepped across Baelish's left side, delivering a shoulder charge to his stomach, causing Baelish to fall on his back.
Baelish scrambled to his feet as Yohn then swipes at Baelish with two hands on his sword, who blocks the attack, but feels his arm going numb. Baelish had never kept up his sword play after his defeat by Brandon. Against Lord Yohn, who was heavily muscled despite his age and who towered over Baelish, Littlefinger was quickly losing. Yohn uses an overhead slash and Baelish blocks and tries to redirect the attack, but the force from the blow causes Baelish to lose his grip on his sword.
Yohn then slices open Baelish's stomach, causing him to shout in pain as he fell to his knees, trying to hold his guts inside his body.
"Hold him down." Yohn ordered his son's and they forced Baelish to his knees. Yohn took up a position in line with Baelish's exposed neck. "In the name of Jon Arryn, Lord Paramount of the Vale and Warden of the East, and King Jon Stark, Lord of Winterfell and King in the North, I, Yohn Royce, Lord of Runestone, sentence you to die." At long last, Baelish dropped his façade of an innocent man and screamed in anger at losing everything, as Yohn's sword cut his head off in one clean strike, letting his head roll in the snow and mud.
Yohn sighed as he stood and his son's let Baelish's bleeding headless body lay in the mud. "It is done, Lord Jon Arryn and Lord Eddard Stark have been avenged." The Lords of the North and the Vale cheered.
"What should be done with the Stone?" One Vale Lord asked, talking about Robin.
"Send him to the Wall. It will wash your hands clean of him and honestly, with his attitude, he won't last long there." Naruto suggested.
"That is acceptable, Your Grace," Lord Yohn said and Naruto snapped his fingers making four Stark Soldiers come forward and drag the screaming bastard away.
"Now, we'll be needing a new lord of House Arryn. Ser Harold Hardyng, stand before me and kneel." The young knight approached and knelt before Naruto. Naruto pulled out Blackfyre and tapped the left shoulder. "You knelt as Ser Harold Hardyng, a Knight of the Vale," Naruto said as he tapped Harold's other shoulder, "Now rise, as Lord Harold Arryn, Lord of the Eyrie, Lord Paramount of the Vale and Warden of the East." Naruto resheathed Blackfyre and Harold rose to the cheers of the Vale Lords and the nods of respect that Lady Waynewood and Lord Yohn gave him. Harry was a bit full of himself and already had a bastard daughter and another bastard child on the way, but he was otherwise a true knight, and was much more worthy of being Lord of the Vale than Robin Stone was.
"You have my eternal thanks for this, your Grace. I cannot possibly repay for this honor," Harold said humbly.
"The Vale's loyalty and military support in the wars to come, will be repayment enough," Naruto said with a knowing smile.
"Your Grace," A stark soldier came up to him and whispered in his ear, and Naruto looks at him and nods his head.
A few Stark Soldiers came into the courtyard with a giant box that was creaking and smashing.
"Your grace, what is that?" One lord asked.
"Something you all need to see." Naruto said as he was given an ordinary sword by a Stark Soldier as he prepared to open it. "I would recommend taking at least 10 steps back, my lords." They all do so.
Naruto waits a moment before he undoes the lock on the box and kicks it over, letting the wight that was in it fall out. The undead corpse rushes at the nearest person, Lady Dustin, but Naruto pulls the chain, stopping it from reaching her, and pulls it back to him, cutting it in half with the steel sword.
The corpse still tried to move and used both of it's arms to move. Naruto cut off both arms and let the corpse flail around aimlessly.
Yohn picks up one of the severed arms to see the fingers still moving. "What the hell is this thing?" he asked.
"It's a Wight." Val said as she came up with torch and flint for Naruto. "A corpse that has been reanimated by the White Walkers."
Naruto lit the torch and took the arm from Yohn and held it up for everyone to see. "We can kill them with fire," he burns the hand and it stops moving. He pulled out a Dragonglass dagger and held the other hand up. "We can kill them with Dragonglass," He stabs the other hand and it stops moving the second the blade pierces it. Naruto pulled out Blackfyre and stood over the corpse, "And we can kill them with Valyrian Steel." Naruto stabs the wight with Blackfyre, everyone seeing the unnatural light fade from the Wight's eyes completely as it went still.
Naruto resheathes Blackfyre and addresses them all. "The White Walkers are awake and active once more. It won't be long before we have to fight them to survive. The only thing that is saving us right now, is a seven-hundred-foot wall that prevents them from coming down up upon us and that won't last forever. We also have another enemy in the south. As long as a Lannister remains in power, they will never accept the Starks holding the North, not after Tywin orchestrated the Red Wedding." The Lords start to mumur once more, despite what they have seen.
"There is one last thing we need to take care of, my lords," Naruto said before he steeled himself. "The truth is, while I was proclaimed the son of Ned Stark, I am not. While I am still a Stark, I'm not his son."
"What are you trying to say, Your Grace? How can you say that?" Lord Galbart Glover asked.
"A couple reasons I say this, Lord Glover." Naruto said as he pulled out the moonstone broach to show everyone, but it was still around his neck. "This is a moonstone broach, created for me by Melisandre to look like my old self."
"You asked why I said that, Lord Glover. Well, its difficult to look in the mirror and think I am still Ned Stark's son, when I have silver hair and Targaryen purple eyes." Naruto took off the moonstone broach for the final time and let his true appearance show.
"By the gods," Some the lords whispered.
"A Targaryen," some more whispered.
"My name, my true name, isn't Jon Snow or Jon Stark. It's Naruto Targaryen, trueborn son of Princess Lyanna Stark and Prince Rhaeghar Targaryen." Naruto said.
"Your grace, how is this possible?" Maege Mormont asked.
"Well, I was resurrected on my own funeral pyre by Lady Melisandre and I don't burn anymore, so there's that." Naruto joked, relieving some of the tension felt by the Lords. "but there wasn't any female Targaryens besides Queen Rhaella alive at the time of my birth, and she was pregnant with Daenerys, so she's out. I would have been killed if I was Aerys's bastard, and Viserys was only 7 at the time. That left Rhaeghar. And Lyanna was the last woman he was with. And Ned Stark would never have vouched for me if I wasn't related to him in some way."
"These two confirmed it for me." Naruto pointed to Gerold and Arthur and they took off their cloaks.
"What?" Some of the Lord said.
"Lord Commander Hightower? The Sword of the Morning?" Some of them said.
"How do we know this is truly them?" Lord Howland asked.
"Lord Commander Gerold was stabbed in the throat by Ned Stark," Arthur said, "I cut your stomach open in the beginning of the fight, Lord Reed. Later on, I was about to finish off Ned Stark after I disarmed him, but as I was about to, you stabbed me in the back of the neck. Ned Stark then cut my throat open with Dawn. I still have the scars to prove it." Arthur pulled down his high neck collar to show the scar across his neck and on the back of his neck.
"Lord Howland," Naruto said, getting his attention, "There is no point in keeping this a secret any longer. Robert Baratheon is dead and I know the truth."
"He speaks the truth. Lyanna Stark died from childbirth, but not before she admitted that she fell in love with Rhaeghar and married him in secret. My liege, Lord Ned Stark swore me to secrecy to protect his nephew from Robert Baratheon. He told me to never speak of the matter to anyone." Howland Reed said after a few moments of hesitation.
"I found this in my mother's krypt," Naruto said, holding up a journal and a sealed piece of parchment. "The sealed parchment is the official document for the marriage between Rhaeghar and Lyanna, with her being his second wife. The journal is my mother's, which confirms that they were married secretly in the God's Eye by the High Septon. It also confirms that they spirited themselves away to Dorne to sire me and named me Naruto Targaryen. As their marriage is legitimate and my half-siblings through Elia are dead, that makes me the Rightful Heir to the Iron Throne. My claim is more legitimate than my aunt Daenerys Targaryen."
"My lords, you have seen what the Army of the Dead looks like. Our enemy does not tire. Does not stop. Doesn't feel. They only want to kill all living things, including our families and our loved ones. To them, we are nothing more than fresh corpses waiting to be added to their army. And there are at least 300,000 of them marching on the Wall. They will be here in 2 years."
"I told you all earlier what kills these things. We have special sources of fire, which I'll show you in a minute, but they aren't enough. We have 3000 Dragonglass daggers amongst the Freefolk that can be outfitted onto spears, which is still not enough. And while I know how to produce Valyrian Steel, I can't produce more than maybe 2 weapons a day. But Dragonglass, if we have access to it, can be easily molded, and with enough smith's, we can produce hundreds of weapons a day."
"Someone, get me a map of the Seven Kingdoms and a table." He ordered and two stewards brought both items out.
"What are you doing?" Sansa asked.
"Planning our next move," Naruto said.
"The Northern Lords combined might bring about 15,000 men to the table. Tormund, Val, will the Free Folk continue to fight alongside us?" Naruto asked looking at Tormund.
"We have to discuss it amongst ourselves. But given your recent campaign, I am confident they will." Val responds while Tormund nods in approval.
"That means another 20,000 men, then." Naruto said as he continued.
"The Knights of the Vale have 40,000 men. Lord Tion's Red Cloaks are another 14,000 And the Riverlands have another 20,000 men. The first order of business is to finish avenging the Red Wedding. We have to march upon the Twins. Kill the Frey's for their betrayal to the North, and bring the Riverlands back into the fold. However, this presents a problem with the Ironborn. The moment Balon Greyjoy hears we're back in the Riverlands, fighting the Lannister's, he'll send his ships to attack our homes and slaughter our people again. That is why this time, we will leave a full garrison in each castle from Winterfell to Moat Caitlin to Bear Island and patrols all along the coastline, about 10,000 men. Then, after we have crushed Jaime Lannister's 20,000 strong army laying siege to Riverrun, we have to attack the Iron Isle's in full force. Burn their ships, isolate them on their islands and wipe out their entire degenerate culture forever."
"Are you sure that is the best decision, your grace?" Yohn Royce asked.
"You're talking about wiping out 36 noble houses, not mention ten's of thousands of more men." Smalljon mentioned.
"The Iron Islands are nothing but a glorified cove of pirates, raiders, and reavers. The smallfolk they capture are little more than slaves. Their saltwives are nothing more than sex slaves. Even when the Targaryens ruled and outlawed those practices, they still committed them against Westeros. They should have been wiped out centuries ago. They have been reconquered at least twice in the last 200 years alone. Once right after the Dance of Dragons and when Balon rebelled against Robert Baratheon. They will never change. We will liberate the slaves and the saltwives, but we kill all the Ironborn. All the drowned Priests will be hanged, their sacred texts burned, the Salt Throne will be torn down, the Driftwood Crown will be burned to ash. Every man, woman, and child that identifies as Ironborn must die. We will not show mercy, we will not compromise, we will wipe them out!" Naruto said, as he plunged a knife into a table, right on the dot that represented the castle of Pyke. He was kicking himself for not doing exactly that years ago. He should have wiped them out. The people of Westeros would have liked him a lot more if he had. No one gave shit about the Iron Islands but the Iron Islands. They were gonna love him for this.
"After that, we will burn the fleet at Lannisport and Lord Reyne will take Fair Isle and then will lay siege to Casterly Rock with 10,000 Red Cloaks while Lord Tarbeck and Lord Reyne's son's will enter the Westerlands from the Golden Tooth with 4,000 Red Cloaks, 5000 Riverland forces and 10,000 Vale Lords. Meanwhile, Lord Wyman Manderly and Ser Davos will take 5,000 North men to take Dragonstone. After that, they will start mining Dragon Glass, and sending shipments here to Winterfell, where our smiths will mold them into speartips, arrow heads and other weapons. I will get the lords of the Narrow Sea on my side, and we will begin our March on Kingslanding and Take the Iron Throne." Naruto was having the Reynes go through the North half because most of the Houses that would side with them and overthrow the Lannisters were in the North. The northern Westerland houses had suffered under Tywin's rule, since he left them unprotected from Robb Stark when he invaded the Westerlands. House Farman of Faircastle had suffered when the Ironborn came and Tywin left very little troops to defend the Westerlands. Just because Balon diverted most of his forces to the North, didn't mean he wasn't raiding elsewhere.
"A brilliant strategy your Grace. But how do you intend to move across Westeros quickly enough to get the Narrow Sea lords on your side? And what of Daenerys Targaryen?" Lord Reyne asked.
Mereen
Currently, Meeren was being assaulted by the combined forces of Astapor, Yunkai and Volantis.
A ship with the Lannister sigil approached behind them, bearing Lannister colors. On board, all men were red-eyed, being possessed by Naruto's clones. Onboard the ship was all of Aery's old wildfire, minus the stuff underneath the Sept of Baelor and inside the Pyromancer Guild.
"Alright Boys, let's blow these fuckers to kingdom come!" The head clone shouted and all the rest cheered. They made their way into the middle of the sieging vessels and a clone lit a fuse. The fuse detonated the keg it was attached to, which set of a chain reaction.
The older wildfire gets, the more volatile and explosive it get's. Aery's old stuff was 20 years old at least, so it produced a much bigger explosion than the fresh stuff Tyrion used in the Battle of the Blackwater. The explosion traveled far, taking out 90% of the fleet and some of Daenerys own vessels.
Back in the North
'Good,' Naruto thought as he watched it happen, 'That should keep her away for another year.'
"Let's just say she's got her own problems to deal with." Naruto said.
"Anyway, my Lords, let's head outside the castle walls. What I'm going to show you is a little too big for the courtyard." Naruto said.
They all followed him outside the walls. Naruto channeled his power and shouted in to the sky in high Valyrian.
4 roars could be heard in the distance. Then they saw them. 4 massive dragons flew out of the tree line surrounding Winterfell and landed in front of them. These 4 dragons were easily as big Drogon had been when he saved Daenerys when she was ambushed in the Fighting Pits.
"My lords, these are my dragons Khalamet, Athuisa, Midhir, and Acnologia. I brought them to life nearly three months ago." Naruto said gesturing to each one. "With my dragons and what forces we have right now, we have a slim chance of surviving. But with me on the Iron Throne, the other 5 kingdoms behind us, and Dragonstone in our hands, we will avenge the Red Wedding, destroy the Ironborn and House Lannister, bring peace to Westeros, and then, we will conquer death itself! For the Seven Kingdoms!"
Said Lords and Bannermen were inspired by his charismatic speech and shouted along with him, "For the Seven Kingdoms!"
Historians would one day call this the beginning of 2nd War of Conquest, The Conquest of the White Dragon, and the Red Lion's Revenge.
Chapter End
I cannot fucking believe it. D&D have done it again! I thought it couldn't get worse after episode 3. Boy, was I wrong. Episode 4 kinda sucked with the copious amounts of stupidity on Daenerys part, never mind Euron's stupid ass teleporting, Varys not even considering a marriage between Jon and Dany to solve the whole succession problem and Euron inexplicably capturing Missandei, but episode 5 was worse. They undid 7 years of character development for Daenerys by making her burn thousands of innocent people in Kingslanding, when she spent all of last season trying NOT to do that. Then, the Northern and Vale armies rape and pillage Kings Landing. Come on, man, these ain't the fucking Lannisters or the Ironborn. That's some real grade A bs. At least they kept Jon from being okay with it, but that's the only good thing I've seen the few clips I've watched.
There was no reason and very little setup for this whole 'Mad Queen Daenerys' thing. Plus, we already had that with Cersei Lannister. We didn't need a second one, damn it! Especially not with my favorite dragon girl. A cliché ending with Jon taking throne and Daenerys as his wife, and them having kids and leading Westeros into a better and brighter future after executing Cersei, would likely be infinitely better than whatever D&D have planned for the final episode.
I swear, Rian Johnson must be tutoring D&D, because this is something he would do. Let this be proof that subversion for subversion's sake never works and only ruins a well-crafted story. Plain and simple.
Sigh…I'm sorry about the rant guys, it's just that I really love this series. Game of Thrones has been my favorite show for 5 years, given me as well as other viewers unforgettable characters and memorable stories, and it really breaks my heart to see was what D&D have done to it, especially Daenerys.
