Chapter 5 – Everything is wrongBran is talking with Tyene, who is once again pleading for military assistance and says;
"I understand your frustration, and everything that should be happening is wrong. Happening at the wrong time, with people that (Then the image of the spaceship appears in his mind)…I have found one of the complications."
Tyene angrily states;
"Dorne is on fire, and you are talking about complications?"
Bran thinks then says;
"I'm sorry I was distracted. Your forces in Dorne have received help from an unexpected source. The person invading Dorne had Unsullied that turned on them and joined your fight against them."
Tyene thinks then asks;
"We still need aid. Is there anything that you can send us?"
Bran states;
"Aid for the people who have fled I can offer, and I can ask the other four lords of the six kingdoms to send at least one-thousand soldiers."
Tyene asks;
"Shouldn't that be five lords of the six kingdoms?"
Bran smiles and states;
"Lord Barathan is riding south with five hundred of his men along with almost three thousand free Unsullied. My sister Queen Sansa sent General Stebbins with one thousand volunteers; eight hundred of them are still alive. Your hand Lord Rugel Sipicone is travelling to them along with General Stebbins and another five thousand free Unsullied. You need to return to raise more soldiers from the refugees."
Tyene looks at her mother, who says;
"It would be best; your sisters are trying to raise troops and not having much luck (Then quietly says) Lord Bronn's wife is on her way here, and we shouldn't be here when she arrives."
The night is clear and dark; Jacob has been following the transmission controlling surveillance drones and is close to finding where the persons from an alternate Terra are hiding when Bran's voice says;
"There is a vessel or some sort of ship in Volantis that I need you to investigate."
Then the image of the spaceship appears in his mind, and Jacob says;
"I'm a little busy trying to get more information on the people who left that thing in Volantis. Your sister want's me back North as soon as possible. She's sleeping right now. Is that why you called me?"
Bran states;
"I thought it would be best if I talked to you first."
Jacob responds with;
"It's not best, and there are men from another Terra here working with the Slave Master who invaded Dorne unless that ship's doors explode open with an invading army of spiders. I'll get to it when I can. Now I have to go. I'm close to the origin signal. You should know by now that when anything involves your sisters' plans for me, you have to speak to her first."
Jacob looks at an encampment with energy signatures that should not be found in this world, his AI states;
"Energy signal consistent with a disruptor weapon detected."
Jacob asks;
"Threat assessment?"
His AI responds;
"I am not able to at this time determine the exact number of weapons; the other weapons signatures are consistent with type one pulse rifles and two, type three plasma cannons. There is an energy signal consistent with a mark two fusion reactor."
Jacob responds;
"They do need something to recharge and power their equipment. A fusion reactor is a little overkill."
Then two energy signatures are detected moving in his direction, and Jacob says;
"They are getting close; let's see what these two are doing out here?"
Tyrion is sitting in the command tent along with Darrio and has been reading the books that the Warlock gave him and says;
"I don't remember this king."
Darrio says;
"Which king?"
Tyrion replies;
"These books listed a King Ironsword the enlightened. A thousand years ago, a king called King Pain, the cruel. Was overthrown and beheaded if I remember my history."
Darrio states;
"The victors write history; what else have those books told you?"
Tyrion closes the book and says;
"Bloodlines, wealth and how the descendants have built such a large army without anyone noticing. If I were to routinely purchase large numbers of slaves and slave fighters, people would notice. These people managed to keep everything unnoticed by using ships to move them and paying the Dothraki what they asked for to not to raid here. The Second Sons were different; they just funded wars with people that could afford to hire you. The Sons of the Harpies was a distraction to keep Daenyres from coming to the other side of Volantis, and it worked. I have a complete list of every Harpy alive and dead."
Tyrion puts the book he was reading aside and picks up the third book and says;
"They are all in here, along with all the persons who aided and profited from the Harpies."
Darrio states;
"That's a very long list."
Tyrion states;
"Most of the people are dead, even so. It's still a very long list."
Darrio states;
"Then we are fortunate to have almost six-thousand Unsullied and two thousand ex-slave fighters to help round the more prominent people on the lists."
Tyrion states;
"We will have to deal with that another day; going after them is another distraction. The second book details their battle strategy. They use distractions and have their enemies waste resources before fighting them."
Darrio comments;
"When their enemies become weak, they attack."
Tyrion replies;
"Like waiting for Westrous to tear itself apart and attack. This last great slave master wants to take the throne, and they have waited a very long time to do it."
Darrio states;
"A thousand years is a long time to wait."
Tyrion replies;
"They were planning on invading centuries ago; they even started the war between my ancestors and a house they invited to dinner and killed. Then the Targaryens and their dragons invaded. They just had to wait a few more centuries for the right time."
Darrio thinks then asks;
"With all games, these people are playing. I wonder how real any of the information in there is real. Warlocks are something not to be trusted."
Tyrion answers;
"They have no reason to lie; they rule Koth and seek magical power, not conquest or support of a conquest unless it is in their best interests. They could have just accompanied Daneryse while she took the Iron throne; instead, they tried to imprison her and her Dragons. Ruling Koth allows them the financial means to buy what they need to increase their magical power. They may not be trustworthy, but they know the value of gold and what it can get them."
Jacob is watching the two men with type two pulse rifles, type one type combat armour speaking in a form of German. As they look at a scanning device one of them is holding, his AI translates;
One;
"This thing must be broken, one false signal after another."
Two;
"We have to keep following them; Hellstrom is already pissed. I don't want to be the next person he permanently demotes with his disruptor pistol."
One;
"Once they have the DNA sniffer fixed, we'll find this fucking GenSol so Hellstrom can kill it."
Two states;
"That thing never fails; I once saw it track a clone through a radiation storm."
As the men walk away tracking random biosignatures, Jacob asks;
"Do I have to worry about a DNA sniffer?"
The AI responds;
"I do not know what this device is unless you take this Combat Unit off. Any DNA that could be detected would, in theory, lead them to the last location where you took it off."
Jacob asks;
"What about DNA on the outside of the combat unit, my weapons and rucksack?"
His AI responds;
"This combat unit is also configured for infiltration; one of its features is the ability to neutralize User GenSol Dublois Jacob's external trace DNA and replace it with a sample of another person. This includes anything that is carried on this combat unit."
Higgins is one of Hellstrom's men, a battle-scarred veteran of the wars on his Terra, with a thin muscular build, bald, thick red beard, and always calm. He's the only one of Hellstrom's men that isn't worried about being permanently demoted; As he is always calm, collected, professional, and never openly questions Hellstrom's orders. He doesn't have Hellstrom's ear, just Hellstrom's guarded respect. He has found the bodies of the three men Jacob executed. He pushes the box over, dumping the bodies onto the ground. See's the nine-millimetre bullet holes in their heads kneels and begins to think. While he does, one of the men who came with him says in a variation of German;
"This world is primitive; who uses firearms anymore?"
As Higgens examines the corpses more closely, he replies in a variation of German;
"Someone from another world, this planet doesn't have the level of technology to make this level of firearms. (as he stands up, he says) Bury them and a proper grave this time. Not a shallow grave that the feral hogs and scavenger animals can easily dig up."
The Man responds in a variation of German;
"Why those three screwed up and got themselves killed."
Higgens quickly turns around and punches the Man in the head, knocking him to the ground and angrily states in a variation of German;
"We've fought alongside those men for almost twenty years; they didn't screw up. The GenSol we are looking for killed them. They didn't stand a chance; Hellstrom wouldn't let them take any of our modern tech except the control unit for the slaves with the control collars. It took months to build those things and less than a minute for the GenSol to deactivate and repurpose them."
Then an explosion is heard followed by men screaming, and Higgens says in a variation of German;
"The idiot who picked up a control collar the GenSol turned into an anti-personnel mine, if he's not dead, end him. He screwed up; he didn't listen to what I had to say. So he doesn't get a grave shallow or otherwise."
As the Man who Higgens knocked to the ground stands up, he asks in a variation of German;
"How did you know that the collars had been turned into mines?"
Higgens states in a variation of German;
"The one thing I like about GenSol's is that they are always polite and considerate when it comes to non-combatants. I don't think this GenSol is from our world. He put up a sign with an image of a collar exploding when picked up. Then wrote "Warning Anti-Personnel Mines" in ancient German. Which none of you speak or read, but I do."
While the men are digging proper graves for the three men Jacob killed, Higgens reports to Hellstrom in a variation of German:
"Located the men operating the control collars; all three are dead. They were killed by a chemical propellent pistol. GenSol is most likely from a different Earth than ours. Awaiting further instructions."
The only response he gets is also written in a variation of German and reads;
"A GenSol is a GenSol, they all die. Especially one using primitive firearms. Continue to sweep for the GenSol, find but do not engage. This kill is mine."
As Higgens puts the comm unit away in his mind, he says;
"We came here by accident and can't go home. This world is too beautiful to bring our war to. I'm fucking tired of fighting in a war, especially another one we started."
Stebbins, Rugel and the freed Unsullied have joined up with what is left of Stebbins men and Dorne fighters that have begun to regroup. They are looking at a map of Dorne and known locations of the enemy positions and troop movements. Stebbins states;
"They are using devices more advanced than anything we have to communicate, which puts us at a severe disadvantage. They can update and move troops in real-time from hundreds of miles away."
Rugel thinks then says;
"They still have to move troops the same way we do; I think there may be a way to use that to our advantage. (He looks at Red Rag) Can your soldiers ride horses?"
Red Rag answers;
"Yes, but we prefer to walk. What do you have in mind."
Rugel happily replies;
"The war masters the slaver uses are fond of using distraction tactics. It's time for us to fight like that and see how they adapt. What do you know of the slave master and his war masters?"
Red Rag states;
"Only what I have told you so far, the men from the flying ship a great deal. They are cruel, like animals. Their leader Commander Hellstrom is the most violent and ruthless of them. It is not uncommon for them to fight and kill us without honour. Their thunder bows and other weapons can kill from great distances. Their Commander likes to have slaves run and see how far they can run before he shoots them in the back with their weapons. Something that shoots a bolt made of light makes a loud sound like lighting striking the ground. The big ones mounted on wagons can kill people without seeing them. Both make a strange sound before they can fire it again, which takes several seconds to do. Two Unsullied used this to kill two of their men; what their Commander did to them was dishonourable. Their deaths were painful and long. They like raping female slaves, even those raised for pleasure houses. Then beat them to death when they become bored with her."
Stebbins asks;
"How many of them are there?"
Red Rag states;
"I have only seen one-hundred. I have seen their Commander execute ten of his men because they failed him. When their Commander executes one of his men, one of them goes into their metal ship and brings out another to replace the Man he executed. Their Commander is not the only one who executes their men because they have failed him. His hand Sunderland enjoys executing their men only after he has tortured them. There is one with honour; he is very different. He does not want to kill, torture, rape, hunt or fight slaves and the hand Sunderland is afraid of him. Not the Commander who seems to respect him but not completely trust him. They call him Higgens; he beats the men who do not follow his orders. The other men fear him, but it is not the same fear as their Commander or his hand; I think it is because he is a great fighter and has honour. He has never fought an Unsullied with his thunder bows. He uses a sword, is very good with it and never kills his opponent. Just knocked out the Unsullied he fought."
Stebbins asks;
"So you've never seen the slave master or his masters of war?"
Red Rad states;
"I have seen them; when it comes to big battles, they sit in a viewing tent and watch. I believe the Slave Master (He looks at Stebbins) looks like someone from the seven kingdoms, dresses strangely, and wears a crown. He has his own personal guard; their loyalty to him is absolute as if they had been raised to protect and obey him without question from birth. I have never seen the men who sit next to him who look like them, their skin has a yellow tone to it, and their eyes are different."
Stebbins asks;
"Do you have any idea how many guards he has?"
Red Rat answers;
"No, those who whisper say it is in the thousands."
Rugel states;
"It sounds like another person with a claim to the throne of Westeros."
Stebbins adds;
"If there weren't hundreds or thousands of legitimate heirs, we would have a better idea of who this one is."
Rugel looks at a confused Red Rat and states;
"There was a time when overthrowing a king of Westeros happened every ten years or less. Very few overthrown Kings were executed, exiled or banished, along with their immediate families were the standard punishment. Who wants to execute their brother or twin sister."
Sansa is looking at the wagon filled with lost or hidden treasure Sir Mackenzie has retrieved and states;
"Where am I going to put this and not have to worry about someone trying to steal it."
Sir Mackenzie replies;
"Is there something wrong with the place your father kept his coin?"
Sansa states;
"If it is the place everyone knew, that would be the worst place for it. If I knew the actual place he kept his coin, I would put it there."
Sir Mackenzie asks;
"We could put it in the crypt; that would be a good place to put it."
Sansa replies;
"That would even worse, until the battle with the dead. I didn't know that there was more than one entrance. An undead bear, four undead Dire Wolves and some sort of undead farm animal walked in through one of them. The stonemasons have so far found three unguarded entrances to the crypt. It will cost at least five thousand gold to seal them properly; one of the hidden entrances is almost as wide as the main gates (She holds up a strange-looking key that looks like five keys combined ). I found this key hidden in my chambers, which used to be my parents. I'm fairly certain it opens the real vault that may be hidden in the secret passages, with hidden entrances and exits. It's also going to cost a fortune to seal them. I hope the Mayfield sisters don't find it before I do."
The Sisters are in the hidden passages and standing in front of a recently discovered door. As Elaina goes to open it, she says;
"I hope this door leads to a place the Matron doesn't know about or would never expect to find us."
When she opens, the door she becomes annoyed when a vault-like door with a strange-looking keyhole stares them in the face. Eeina states;
"Why would a secret passage have a door that you need a key to open. The exits are hidden; how would anyone be able to escape using the secret passages when invading armies breach the walls."
Amyelia responds with;
The other hidden doors can be barred from the inside; why shouldn't this one be any different."
Eeina shoots back;
"No, they have regular locks needing matching keys to open them; no one has locked them in years. The keys I stole for the secret doors, none of them look they can open this door."
Elaina states;
"I want to know what's on the other side of this door. You picked a bad time to stop using Howard to find out what's behind a wall or door."
Eeina counters with;
"He stopped talking to me because Sansa had Leroy and his family evicted from their new home inside her floor. The only ones that will talk to me are the ones with poor hygiene or the mice, and you can't trust what a mouse says when your friends with a few rats."
Then Sansa says;
"Aren't the three of you supposed to be making clothing for the orphans?"
Elaina states;
"They're orphans with a roof over their heads; they will be fine. It's not like they're going to freeze to death or starve."
Sansa replies;
"You three are testing what little patience I have left when it comes to you. The orphans don't have proper winter clothing, which they need to keep from catching pneumonia, which is worse than freezing to death."
As the sisters grudgingly leave to go back to sewing clothes for the orphans, Sansa holds out her hand and says;
"Eeina, please give me the keys you borrowed from the lockbox."
With hesitation, Eeina hands the keys to her and silently says to her sisters;
"It's a good thing I had one of the new blacksmith's apprentices make copies of them for us. Amyelia, you have a diner date with him, tonight I think."
Then Sansa silently says to them;
"I'll take those two; why do you three keep forgetting that I can speak silently as well? I don't want to know. Amyelia, don't be late for that dinner date; we had to pay higher than usual to get an in-house blacksmith that can train blacksmiths."
Amyelia silently states;
"How can I think about going on a dinner date with a boy with questionable hygiene when I still haven't heard or been told anything about how Cindy is doing."
Elaina silently adds;
"How do you know it's a boy? Two of the apprentices are girls with questionable hygiene."
Eeina silently states;
"Queen Sansa, your majesty. I can't seem to remember where I left the copies of the keys. They disappeared just after you had Leroy and his family evicted from their new home in your floor."
Sansa silently responds with;
"It's good that you have friends, but that was a rat, and it's family living in my floor, and he had to go. Find your friends who helped you steal the keys in the first place and get the keys back. Or you won't have any friends left; I have five of Westrous's best rat catchers headed here to deal with our rat problem."
Elaina asks;
"Should you have your baby with you here? There is a great deal of dust and rat shit in the not-so-secret passages."
Sansa replies;
"Princess Catlin goes where I go; she has my looks and has her father's healing and sleeping gifts. You three and I are more likely to get sick from breathing the air in here than she is."
A strange woman wearing what looks like stolen clothes heavily wrapped around her is stopped at the gates by the first guards who ask her;
"Who are you, and why are you here?"
The woman trying to not shake from the cold, says;
"My name is Elizabeta, and I am here to train the Mayfield sisters."
The first guard looks at her with annoyance and says;
"Those three are a lost cause, and no one has told us anything about someone coming to do the impossible. So fuck off and don't come back."
As Elizabeta begins to hum a hungover Dothraki knocks her out, stating;
"That crap doesn't work on Dothraki, and it's making my head hurt worse."
The second guard asks;
"Why is a Dothraki still here in the North?"
The Dothraki states;
"We follow the strong, The Dragon Queen was strong, and we were all her blood riders. Then when one of us shot Prince Jacob in the chest with a scorpion, it didn't kill him. We realized that he is strong and decided to follow him."
The first guard states;
"Prince Jacob's armour makes him indestructible. Not strong."
The Dothraki replies;
"He wasn't wearing his armour when he was shot. I watched him tear it out of his chest; it had to be painful, the tip had barbs on it, and I'm certain that it pierced his heart. He had also just defeated three-hundred Unsullied, including Greyworm and their ten best fighters with a fighting knife and his bare hands. Do you know where he is? We can't seem to find him."
The first guard states;
"He comes and goes; sometimes, he goes out one of the gates. If he's in a hurry, he jumps over the wall."
The second guard asks;
"While you're waiting for Prince Jacob to return and with that humming not working on Dothraki. could you do us a favour by locking her in the Dungeons and keep her from escaping until we know what to do with her?"
The first guard says;
"We will let the Queen know about you and the other Dothraki; if anyone knows where her husband is, it would be her."
The second guard says;
"I will personally inform the Queen. Dothraki terrify me, a mostly naked Dothraki in the North even more."
The Dothraki replies;
"Drink enough Blacksmith Hammer Vodka, and the cold doesn't matter. I'm not a fan of Moonshine. The last time I drank some, I missed the battle between the living and the dead."
The second guard asks;
"When I inform the Queen about you, how many Dothraki are here at Winterfell?"
The Dothraki says;
"Thirty-four, there is another 100 more on the way. If most of us hadn't died in the battle with the dead. There would be more than 134."
Then he picks up Elizabeta and slings her over his shoulders, and says;
"It's fortunate that thirty-two of us are currently in the Dungeon recovering from drinking too much Blacksmith Hammer Vodka. They put themselves in there; it was better for everyone."
As he walks towards the Dungeon with an unconscious Elizabeta over his shoulder, the first guard says;
"He's not the one who shot the Prince with the scorpion; that one is missing his braid."
The second guard says;
"I would recommend them to guard the problem sisters; I'm certain that if they did, one or all three of them would be with child with a week. Those three know nothing about how to have sex with a man works."
The First guard adds;
"They do know that a girl being on top won't keep them from getting pregnant. I was there when the Matron corrected that thought. The rest of it went over their heads."
Sansa is inside the vault, where every shelf has something on it, and there isn't much room left and says to Catlin;
"It's a good thing that the Iron Bank has started building the central bank with an excessively large vault. It should be finished in three months. What Sir Mackenzie brought back will fill all the space in here."
She randomly opens a small chest on the shelf in front of her to see it filled with scrolls and says to Catlin;
"Unless these scrolls have value, they're going to the now empty hidden room in the back of the library. There is no way that I would leave those adult materials there for you or your future siblings to find."
Jacob collects some touch DNA from one of the alternate Terra's soldiers with his active camouflage engaged. Before the AI reproduces it and covers the outside of Jacob's armour, on his weapons and rucksack, it says;
"This individual has severe radiation poisoning. It is most likely he will succumb to it within thirty days."
Jacob asks;
"What is the danger level to me and those I come in contact with?"
His AI replies;
"Nominal, the radiation will degrade the sample, I can replicate the DNA. Because of the lethal levels of radiation, what DNA created will have a life of no more than two hours."
Jacob asks;
"What type of radiation is it?"
The AI answers;
"Consistent with a fallout from a high yield fusion device within the blast zone."
Jacob then asks;
"Are there any signs of chronoton radiation?"
The AI states;
"No"
Sansa is standing next to chests containing family records and information that would be better suited in the hidden room in the library when Bertie brings the first load of treasure to the vault and says;
"For some reason, these passages are shielded from my sensors. If it were not for Mayfield sisters telling me about the hidden door across from your chambers, I would not have known about them."
Sansa replies;
"I wouldn't have known about them too if the sisters hadn't told you."
Bertie asks;
"I wonder how they discovered them."
Sansa replies;
"Eeina made some new friends; she can get animals to do things for her. Like rats who steal keys for her. After you've secured the treasure, take the chests to the library and put them in the hidden room that Jacob calls a priest hole. Now that it's empty, it's a good place to store the family records. Some of which need restoration. There are centuries of family records in those chests."
Bertie asks;
"What did you do with the adult materials that had been stored there?"
Sansa states;
"I burnt them; there is no way that I was going to leave them for Catlin or any of her future siblings to find."
Bertie states;
"It is most likely that Stark Catlin and any future siblings you have with GenSol Dublois Jacob will possess all of his memories, which now include your memories."
Sansa looks at a smiling and happy Catlin and says;
"If that is the case, then I won't need to have a proper conversation with her about how babies are made or any of them. I was looking forward to having the conversations that my parents wouldn't have with me or my siblings."
Bertie states;
"If Stark Catlin has her parent's memories, you will still be able to have those conversations and hope that it does not lead to a debate about how you learned them."
Then Bran says to Sansa;
"There is a woman by the Name of Elizabeta in the dungeons; she told the guards that she was here to train the Sirens, do not let her anywhere close to them. She is a True Siren and is not here to train them to use their gifts in a beneficial way. The person who is supposed to do that is now on her way here. She is a shaman by the name of Elsa Hartgrove, and, like many things, this is happening far earlier than it should."
Sansa states;
"I thought Jacob corrected everything he messed up."
Bran replies;
"He did; what is happening now is due to violent persons from another Terra arriving here and now plan on conquering the world after any military threats have been neutralized."
Sansa sadly states;
"So we are going back to war."
Bran replies;
"No, I will have to adjust what was supposed to happen that is out of order. Jacob will be a necessary part of that."
Sansa states;
"I want him back here, in the North. How long will you keep him from me?"
Bran replies;
"I don't know; it depends on him dealing with the new arrivals who have been here longer than I knew; they were able to hide from my predecessor and me."
Sansa looks at Catlin and says;
"Your father will be with us for all your important moments. I'm not worried about him dying anytime soon. Just having to do something important for your future and how long it will keep him from us. It was seven years before he came back into my life the last time."
Jacob is watching the small shuttle decloak that left several hours ago and has returned with two men who replaced the two men Hellstrom executed because they failed him. Then sees other men with a strange device that appears to be pulling in and analyzing the air and asks his AI;
"Is that device the one others called a sniffer?"
The AI replies;
"I believe it to be so; its energy signature is consistent with an air quality analyzer."
Jacob asks;
"Do I need to be worried about it?"
The AI replies;
"No, the power source is unstable. It will soon render itself useless within seconds."
Then Jacob feels someone trying to get into his head telepathically and says;
"Engage telepathic defences and countermeasures."
The AI states;
"Telepathic defences engaged, engaging countermeasures will require disengaging active camouflage."
Jacob asks;
"Likelihood that attacking telepath was able to detect my bond with Sansa?"
The AI responds;
"It is unlikely but possible."
When the power source for what Jacob believed to be the sniffer discharges, the men operating it continue on as if the device did not suddenly lose power and says;
"Maintain active camouflage, and I'll need it to get to the cave we passed before the next event. They have a telepath; that is their sniffer. Run a systems security scan; I think that when we were in their system, they found a way into ours. I wonder what it was that they had to fix. Send an encoded message to Bertie about what just happened and have Sansa put on her armour."
The AI says;
"Standard frequencies of communication appear to be jammed, using alternate frequencies. Message sent and received."
Bertie is about to place the last treasure in the vault when she receives the message from Jacob's AI. She drops what is in her hands and runs to find Sansa. When she does, Sansa appears to be having a headache. Then Bertie says;
"I apologize for this, Stark Sansa."
She takes Catlin from her, then tears Sansa's clothes off and forces her inside. After the telepathic defences and countermeasures have engaged, Sansa's headache subsides, and Sansa asks;
"Why did you do that?"
Bertie responds;
"A telepath just attacked you,"
Then the front of Berties' armour opens, revealing a space with a child's car seat and then removes Catlin's clothing before placing the baby inside. Once the opening closes, Bertie states;
"I have been designing a safe space for Stark Catlin in the event of an emergency. I had to complete it on my way here. Now to be on the safe side, I have asked the Siren's armour to do the same with their users. This may not be appreciated by Amyelia, who is on a dinner date with a young girl and completely bored or annoyed. I am never certain about Amyelia's mental state unless I put the name Cindy in the conversation."
Sansa states;
"The headache wasn't from someone other than Jacob being in my head, I was feeding Catlin, and lately, she has become extremely aggressive when I breastfeed her. It is painful; my headache resulted from me focusing on pushing the pain away."
Bertie goes quiet then says;
"Stark Sansa, you may feel a little discomfort while I pump breast milk from you and feed Stark Catlin."
As a holo of Sansa breastfeeding, Catlin appears over Bertie; Sansa says;
"You should have told me that you could do this a week ago. When Catlin started to become aggressive when feeding. What you are doing to my breasts is very pleasant and not painful."
The person that the Iron Bank sent to The Northlands to create, set up and manage the new banking system has presented it to the Lords of The North and now is taking questions;
Lady CalStark's proxies asks;
"What guarantees does the Iron Bank have with this enterprise? Historically every time someone tried to create something similar, they failed. And the lords had to cover the loss."
The Man replies;
"It's in the Iron Bank's best interest, and the ones that failed were usually due to underestimating their competition in the banking industry. For you and us, it's a perfect partnership; you have precious gemstones that we want. If you were to demand full and immediate payment as is your right, it would be financially disastrous. We will deal with all the costs of creating, setting up, and managing your banking network with us partnering with you. Over the next twenty years, we will make the payments for what is owed from our purchase of those precious gemstones on time and at no expense to the Northlands."
As the lords begin asking more questions about paying for things like the railroads, the taking down of the wall, the Building projects etc. Lady Mormont quietly says to Sansa;
"When you first told me about having the lords more involved with the planning and running of the Northlands, I thought you were being stupid. Now I realize how wrong I was; letting them deal with this crap is better than us having to make the hard decisions."
Sansa quietly adds;
"When they eventually fuckup, we will step in and fix it. It will be interesting to see how they react when it comes time to pay their taxes. They unanimously agreed to the terms."
Lady Mormont quietly asks;
"Does being your hand mean I get a break on my taxes? They are a little high."
Sansa quietly answers;
"You agreed to the terms; all persons are treated equally when it comes to paying their taxes. We need to keep the treasury at a high level, and with the Iron Bank working with us, if a master of coin tries to intentionally bankrupt the Queendom. They won't survive the first audit. If they had audited the seven kingdoms sooner, Little Finger would have had his head removed years ago, and my father, my mother, Robb and Gwendolyn would still be alive."
A man with platinum blonde hair, pale skin and tribal paint is in a Dragon temple in Valaria turning the eggs when he hears the sound of a phone ringing and says;
"What the hell is that."
He follows the sound, leading him to a room no one has entered in years. He forces the door open and looks at the dust-covered phone and, with hesitation, picks up the handset, and Bran says;
"Hello, I need to speak to your elders. It's very important."
The Man asks;
"Who are you?'
Bran answers;
"I am Bran Stark, the Three-Eyed Raven and the king of the six kingdoms of Westeros. Please bring them here; I have to speak to them about waking the great dragon and hatching the Dragon Riders Dragons."
The Man says;
"Can it wait, I have to finish turning the eggs, or they won't hatch properly."
Bran says;
"How long will that take?"
The Man replies;
"A couple of hours."
Bran replies;
"The elders are in your village less than one minute walk; the eggs will be fine. Please go and bring them here."
The Man says;
"Okay, but if any of the eggs that I'm not turning on schedule hatch wrong, you're taking the fall."
He puts the handset back where he picked it up, hanging up on Bran. When he's halfway to the door, the phone rings again. He walks back over, picks the handset up and says;
"Dude, I would be closer to getting the elders if you hadn't made this thing make that sound again."
Bran says;
"The thing you're holding in your hand, put it next to the device you picked it up from."
The Man drops the handset on the ground and states;
"Clem gets put in the hospital, and I have to cover his shifts."
Jacob is about to sneak into the camp where the other Terrans are and stops just before he steps into a security field and says;
"Interesting, this tech is more advanced."
His AI states;
"Given the variety of technology that we have encountered so far, it is likely that they are scavengers. This security field has a GenSol energy signature."
Jacob asks;
"Is this security field or anything similar to it in the database?"
His AI answers;
"No, this security field is connected to a plasma weapon; if you were to breach it without the proper authorization, it will kill you."
Jacob steps away from the camp and barely avoids two of Hellstrom's men with Pulse rifles as they check the possible breach. When one of the men pulls out a device to check the area for what Jacob believes is him, an Unsullied spear is thrown into the Man's face, instantly killing him. When the second Man blindly fires his pulse rifle as it cycles and builds a charge, arrows strike him in the neck and face as he drops painfully backward into the security field, the plasma weapon fires and burns him to a crisp. Jacob takes cover while the camp is attacked by recently freed Unsullied, who seem to be very familiar with the camp's defence systems. As Hellstrom's men begin to fight back, the Unsullied kill five more before a plasma cannon fires striking the attacking Unsullied. Then Jacob watches Hellstrom walk through the security field and fire his disruptor pistol at the UnSullied, who survived the plasma cannon's fire.
The AI states;
"Type five cybernetics detected, individual identified as Purist Leader William Hellstrom on our Terra. Recommend tactical withdrawal."
As Jacob slowly moves away from the camp, he watches Hellstrom fighting Unsullied, who refuse to surrender.
The guards at the main gate watch a man on horseback leading another horse with someone tied face down on the horse's back and are slowly riding towards them. When he gets to the gate, he says;
"I have a delivery for the Mayfield Sisters."
The first guard says;
"Whatever they ordered, we are not supposed to pay for it, so take whatever it is back to where it came from."
The Man gets off his horse and says;
"They didn't order her; King Bran of the six kingdoms paid me to bring her here."
The second guard asks;
"Why would he pay you to bring someone here?"
The Man cuts the rope holding, Elsa Hartgrove a woman in her late thirties to early forties that time and alcoholism has not been good too, to the horse, and she slides off and slams into the ground. As she comically and completely wasted and tries to stand up, the Man says;
"This nutjob Elsa Hartgrove, I had to bribe some people at an Asylum to let me take her out of it and bring her here. (Then he whispers) She sees dead people and talks to animals. Don't try to out-drink her; you'll lose."
Elsa barely manages to stand up, looks around and drunkenly slurs;
"Winterfell, what the fuck am I doing here? I'm not supposed to be here to kick three entitled, spoiled girls in the ass for another three years. (Then she looks at the space above them and shouts) Bruce, Larry, what the fuck are you two still doing here? You both died twenty years ago; find some other place to lurk or go masturbate in the light."
As the guards look up, Elsa looks at Leroy and says;
"Stop being angry with Eeina; if you were stupid enough to move your family into the Queens floor, then you have to live with the consequences."
The first guard asks;
"Who are you?"
Elsa drunkenly states;
"I am the Shaman Elsa Hartgrove; I'm a Shaman, not a fucking witch. There is a significant difference. Now, if you excuse me, I have to go stick my not so tiny feet into a pain in the ass woman child's ass, which of the three, it doesn't matter before the sun goes down, all three princesses' asses will be extremely familiar with my not so tiny feet."
Then she stumbles past them, following a rat and saying;
"Stop screewing with me, Leroy or I'll make sure that a starving cat knows exactly where to find you."
The Man who brought her to Winterfell pulls Elsa's bag from his horse and hands it to the first guard, and says;
"This belongs to her if you value your sanity. You won't look inside."
As the first guard holds Elsa's bag, the second guard states;
"By first light, that Adult supervisor will be sober and heading south."
The first guard smells something horrible in the bag and replies;
"I doubt it; we've been waiting for her to show up. Unlike the others, she's already prepared to kick them in the ass. Not when they quit."
Elsa drunkenly stumbles halfway to where the sisters will be in twenty minutes, then stops, smells something nasty, realizes it's the Man standing next to her, takes one step and feels the dark evil presence of Elizabeta locked in the Dungeons. Grabs the bottle of Moonshine from his hand and says;
"You shouldn't drink this. You will wind up making more extremely poor life choices, like forgetting to bathe for the last ten years. (Then she downs what is in the bottle and says) That hit the spot; now I have to go and kill a sea bitch that should have known better than to come here."
Jacob has been observing the camp and has watched Hellstrom painfully kill the UnSullied that his men captured then execute the men he blamed for the attack that killed five of his men. When he's, see's the shuttle decloak for the third time, he realizes that he is not the only person observing the camp. When he catches a glimpse of one of Hellstrom's replacement soldiers showing signs of extended cryo syndrome, he realizes that the Unsullied have not been harassing the camp. They have been engaging in a war of resources. Hellstrom and the last great slaver's forces appear to be moving in and out of the camps without problem; they are not. The Unsullied leaders have controlled who goes in and out and when they go out. All the while tracking how many replacements the transports can bring at a time and how long it takes for the shuttle to make the trip.
Tyrion is watching his men and some of the Unsullied tear through one of the last slave compounds when a Raven with a message lands in front of him on his horse. He pulls the message off the Raven's leg and reads the simple message;
"Move your horse backward and look up."
He moves his horse backwards and looks up to see Jacob fade into view as he floats down in front of him. As Jacob walks up to him, Tyrion states;
"I loved the inspirational speech you gave me to read the comments about staying sober on my bedding night to your wife were not appreciated."
Jacob's helmet morphs into his armour, and he says;
"What speech? The only thing I did for you was to haul five tons of Valarian steel to Meeren for you to find."
Tyrion states;
"I've had several messages with your name on it, Prince Jacob, husband of Queen Sansa, the Sky Knight."
Jacob states;
"If it had my name on it and it said, husband of Queen Sansa at the same time she was abandoning you and before she was forced to marry Ramsey. It wasn't me; it was someone who smokes far too much weed playing a practical joke. Did the seal look like some strange five-pointed leaf? If it did, it was them."
Tyrion asks;
"Who would that be, and what is weed?"
Jacob replies;
"Someone who has far too much time on their hands and weed is something that no one outside of Valaria should smoke. So which way is the spaceship?"
Tyrion states;
"I have no idea what nonsense just came out of your mouth; why my ex-wife chose to marry you makes no sense. I expected you to be more, everything."
Jacob answers;
"She chose me to be her husband long before I impregnated her. It was a beautiful crossbow wedding. You should have sent a better representative from your house than your broke cousin Seth."
Tyrion states;
"He regifted you the used family toasting iron, didn't he. Seth isn't poor, just cheap. What is a spaceship?"
Jacob answers;
"Something I'm here to destroy, speaking of destroying something. We haven't got your RSVP to the destruction of the wall."
Tyrion replies;
"You haven't set a date for that monumentus event."
Jacob replies;
"Much to my wife's displeasure, I've been down here and not preparing the wall for destruction, and other things that my wife demands of me which to her displeasure isn't being done satisfactorily. I should have the wall ready to come down within the next decade."
Elsa falls into the Dungeon and on top of a sleeping Dothraki and says;
"You should think of washing your clothes; they smell horrible. Which cell has the sea bitch?"
She stands up, takes a wineskin from a Dothraki, downs it and asks again;
"Which cell has the sea bitch in? The one you amazingly gorgeous men who need to wash your clothes are guarding."
One of the Dothraki points at a cell. Then Elsa drunkenly stumbles over to it and looks into the cell, and says;
"That's her."
Then pats down a Dothraki and pulls out a knife, and states;
"I should have just asked, but I've been locked in an Asylum for the last decade. There weren't any men as gorgeous as any of you."
Then drunkenly opens the door and throws the knife at Elizabeta, killing her. As she goes to close the door, she sees a lamp that uses a liquid to burn hanging unlit on the wall and says;
"Can one of you hand me that? I need to be thorough when it comes to killing a sea bitch."
One of the Dothraki takes the lamp and hands it to her; when she takes it, she says;
"Can I get any of you to light my lamp?"
When they look at her in confusion, she says;
"Extremely gorgeous, but no clue as to when a woman is hitting on them. (Then says) Incendia."
And the wick on the lamp begins to burn; she pulls open the cell door and throws it at the True Siren setting it on fire. As it begins to burn, it starts to scream; Elsa snaps her finger, and one of the Dothraki's knives flies into her hand. Then she throws the knife into the True Siren killing it again, and says;
"I hope those knives don't have sentimental value cause you're not getting them back."
She closes the cell door, takes another wineskin from another Dothraki, downs it and says;
"When the fire burns out, if the Sea Bitch isn't ash, cut off her head and burn her again. It sometimes takes a few times to kill one of them before they are completely dead; they are hard to kill."
As she takes a third wineskin from another Dothraki and downs it and states;
"I'm a shaman, not a fucking witch; there is a significant difference."
As she drunkenly stumbles out of the Dungeon the Dothraki she felt up and stole a knife from says;
"Why do I feel like I've just been violated."
The sisters are making another escape attempt with the hopes of doing something fun when Elsa suddenly appears and kicks Elaina in the ass and says;
"Morons, stop fucking with people."
As Elaina angrily says;
"Who the fuck are you, and why did you kick me in the ass?"
As Elsa kicks Eeina in the ass, Elsa says;
"Shut up, and you damn well deserved it."
As Amyelia starts to laugh, Elsa suddenly kicks her in the ass and says;
"My name as far as you three morons are concerned my name is do as I fucking tell you or I'll keep kicking your asses with my not-so-tiny feet."
As Elsa takes a bottle of Moonshine that Elaina had hidden on her and begins to down it, Eeina says;
"That was rude of you, we are highborn, and commoners can't kick us in the ass."
When Elsa finishes the bottle, she lets out a loud belch and says;
"Shut the fuck up; like my ex-husband; I came far too early. Now get back in your room, or I'll shove my not-so-tiny feet in your asses, not kick them."
As Elsa takes another hidden bottle of Moonshine off Elaina, she says;
"Elaina, you need to stop drinking, not at the moment. I'm gonna need the rest of those two cases that you have hidden on you. Being me and sober is painful."
Amyelia asks;
"I'm not shutting the fuck up until you tell us who you are."
Elsa downs the bottle, again loudly belches and says;
"I'm like you, Elaina; I can see and talk to dead people; you need to stop drinking; Bruce and Larry like to watch you while your bathing. Take it from me there is nothing worse than a ghost jerking off and shooting his ghostly manhood in your direction. Eeina, I'm like you I can talk to animals; unlike you, I know when those furry bastards are screwing with me. Amyelia, like me, you have the ability to talk to people from a distance using a mirror."
Elsa then kicks Elaina again in the ass and pulls a hidden bottle of Moonshine from Amyelia's clothes the says;
"Eliana, you need to stop drunkenly sending ravens to your long-distance boyfriend, Tormund. He will eventually knock you up, but not in the immediate future. Until you three fulfill your moronic destiny, you have to stay a virgin. Amyelia Cindy will never respect you; she'll take your lesbian virginity and never return your Ravens. You can lose your lesbian virginity; men make up the whole prophecy bullshit, so unless a man enters and leaves what little manhood he has in your lady parts, you'll be good. Eeina (looks awkwardly at Eeina), your furry friends will always give you comfort but avoid getting a cat. It will eat your other furry friends."
As Elsa downs another bottle of Moonshine, Amyelia states;
"I'm not a lesbian; Cindy is my friend who I like smoking weed with and am curious to see where it goes. To dinner or dancing, hopefully."
Before Elsa can finish the bottle, she again kicks Amyelia in the ass, then takes a quick break from drinking and says;
"The three of you get back in your room; Mama needs to get some rest, so whoever's bed I'll be sleeping in will have to sleep with one of your sisters."
Eeina says;
"You can take Elaina's; it's by the window."
Elsa stops drinking and says;
"If you mean the one that's gonna be blocking the door, then that would be the one. You morons thought that just because I was having a well-deserved sleep, you could leave and short sheet the Matron's bed again. Then you're dumber than anyone thought."
Elsa snaps her fingers, and suddenly they are all back in their room, and Eeina's bed is blocking the door. As Elsa takes another hidden bottle off Eliana, she states;
"I'm also something you idiots aren't a Shaman, not a fucking witch; there is a significant difference."
As Elaina mutters;
"Witch bitch what is the difference."
Elsa suddenly kicks her in the ass and says;
"If you want to see a real bitch go to the dungeons and see what I did to the last bitch that pissed me off, but keep your greasy alcoholic hands off my gorgeous Dothraki, I felt him up, so that makes him mine."
As Elsa begins to down the bottle of Moonshine, she again snaps her fingers, and the sisters suddenly find themselves in their nightclothes and in bed. As Amyelia awkwardly spoons Elaina, Elaina says;
"If you call me Cindy while your sleeping, I'm going to beat you to death."
Eeina tries to get out of the bed Elsa put her in and fails she says;
"Damn it, Amyelia, what did you do in your bed? It's almost like you peed yourself repeatedly. And why am I in your bed and not you in it with Elaina? Elaina, when you don't drink yourself to sleep, you snore."
Amyelia asks;
"So, how do I use a mirror to talk to people far away?"
Elaina says;
"I don't care. That fucking shaman took all my Moonshine."
Then when Elsa suddenly and loudly farts, the sisters try to get out of their beds and to the window, they find that the bedding won't let them.
