Kingslanding in the Red Keep, Tyrion is shown going over the financial books, he seems to go back on when Littlefinger paid the city watch... to turn of Ned Stark, only the age seemed to have been ripped out. Was it Littlefinger who took it.

Tyrion doesn't know who took it, or what happen to it.

Varys enters.

Varys: May I join you friend.

Tyrion: By all means, just finishing it up.

Varys sits at the table.

Varys: My little birds have told me that The Phoenix has made his way to Harrenhal. And that The Mountain is waiting to hear from your father to see if he should confront him and finish him.

Tyrion: If The Mountain goes after The Phoenix he reads either way, Harrenhal is very difficult to siege and even if he is able to get through, he'll lose a majority of his men, and if Brynden Tully finds out that the Mountain is trying to take Harrenhal he'll assemble the armies and corner The Mountain... unless if that is what the Phoenix is planning all along.

Varys: I wonder if he's not just here for Daenerys Targaryen what if he here to do something else. I have this feeling that he been wanting to come to Westeros for a long time, and she was his excuse.

Tyrion: If he wanted to come, then he would have came while Robert was king. However how would you assume that?

Varys: He never lost a battle. He intelligence is on a level of a mastermind and the fact that this country has worthy opponents that he would love to challenge, or maybe the vice versa for he wants to be challenged.

Tyrion: You fear this man.

Varys: More like I admire him. I admire him more turn than Baelish.

Tyrion: I respect him. His tactics, his strategic mind and the many skills that he possesses.

Varys: He winning. We don't know it yet, but I know he going to win. That man thinks before he acts, he probably planned everything before he came here. Once when he can cripple the Lannisters and their allies, he going to have Daenerys, her army and her three dragons sail down here. He knows that Dorne is a strong supporter, the North will support because they want the Lannisters dead, the Greyjoys have Theon back, and my little birds told me that Balon Greyjoy is dead and Theon is now running The Iron Islands, he's giving the North support as a way of making amends for his betrayal.

Tyrion: He still has to deal with the Mountain and his force of 20,000 soldiers behind him.

Varys: He'll beat them. He always does.

Tyrion looks back at the book.

Tyrion: This Petyre Baelish know how to cover his steps, he works with the Tyrells to have Joffrey poisoned, leaving him blameless, and then he rips out a page of financial coin book of the days following when Ned Stark was brand a traitor. Like the City Watch arresting him.

Varys: I doubt it was him who ripped that out.

Tyrion: It's makes sense for him to rip it out. He would have to write down whatever finances he spends.

Varys: Pieces of paper wouldn't prove his treachery, he would have no reason to tear it out. I think someone ripped it out and is planning on using it as a tool against Baeslish personally. Possibly to see his reaction.

Tyrion: The Phoenix... he tore it out. This is one sick game he playing especially against Baelish.

Varys: No doubt that Baelish is going to retaliate. The Phoenix is standing in his way of achieving more power in this country. Shame though, Baelish has no clue who he is up against... unless if he visits him... He does have a way of reading people.

Tyrion: Why would Baelish visit the Phoenix?

Varys gives him a smile.


The Phoenix is shown in a room up above a tower, he has taken Harrenhal, and everything it has. Lord Umber with other Vassal Lords, and Kalimar and the Phoenix captains joining in. This appears to be a war council.

Phoenix: Aren't the Frey men joining?

Kalimar: I put them on wall duty.

The Phoenix sits down.

Phoenix: Inform me.

Kalimar: Alto made it in the Vale. There's more to it, he's also discovered that Sansa sister Arya is alive and well. She's with there aunt and... (something that the Phoenix would love to hear) Baelish has also returned there as well. If he weds Lysa Arryn, and he will convince her to have the Vale Knights turn to the Lannisters.

Lord Umber: I wouldn't count on that, Lord Kalimar. Rumor has it that the Lannisters poisoned Jon Arryn, it was said that he knew some secrets about Cersei and her children.

Phoenix: That they're the product of incest. I knew by just looking at her children... If what you say is true than Baelish will wait to see who is winning this war, and then he'll have the Vale come at anyone who survives.

Lord Umber: How could you possibly assume that.

The Phoenix gives Lord Umber a look as if he feels his intelligence was insulted.

Phoenix: Cause I would have done the same thing. He will come here, and when he does, I'm anxious to meet him, and he is too... (changing subject) Now on to other matters, The Mountain and his men are they o their way.

Lord Umber: Tywin Lannister has ordered them to forget Riverrun and retake Harrenhal. He and his men will be here in 2 days with Tyrell forces marching with them. Tywin Lannister intends to take you out and he has the allies to do it.

Phoenix: So do I. Well lets prepare for the siege then.

Lord Umber: It's already being done. From my history, Harrenhal can be defended by 3000 men, and we have 35,500 men. With this many we can stand a chance. With the Mountain and the Tyrells joining in... I don't know.

Phoenix: Like what you said Lord Umber, The Mountain is a man with no strategic thought, but we are. We will win, I assure you, because the Tyrells are going to have their hands busy, thanks to a friend.


Ironborn longships are sailing, they seem to be approaching the shores of the Reach near port cities. Euron Ship The Silence is leading the assault.

Euron Greyjoy appears to be in his Ironborn armour, he seems to be glad to be back and following the "Old Way" again.

Euron: This is it!

Yara seems to be on his ship with him.

Yara: Where Uncle Victarion?

Euron: Behind us. He will be the second wave, first comes tactical, second comes brute force. It is better to finish it with brute force.

The Silence lands on the shores, with Euron being the first to jump off the ship and leading the raid.

I apologize for the long wait, I was waiting for the season 5 of Game of Thrones to end so I can develop ideas for the story. I hope you enjoy this chapter and now that Season 5 is over there probably won't be any long wait.

Also I hope you guys have a better name for this chapter, because I'm starting to think it doesn't go well with it. So if anyone has a better name let me know.
