22. Anvil:

Anvil:

King's Landing:

Admiral Travis Thresh arrived back into King's Landing after his patrolling of the Narrow Sea and his hunt for the Resistance base. He had gathered information and knew that the Resistance were about to strike a major move against King Joffrey. Travis had begun to have second thoughts on what he was doing after seeing the attitude of King Joffrey but he never broke a contract so he would not break up his alliance with Joffrey. The information he had gathered would need to be shared with the King and his council so he had returned to the city. Travis' private fleet had around 50 ships with his flagship being the Justice. When the Justice docked in the harbour, Travis saw that the Resistance had struck while he was away and had stolen 20 of King's Landing ships and damaged others.

After docking, Travis was escorted by some of the King's Landing Guards led by Captain Andens along with some of his own men as he was taken to the Red Keep. As soon as he arrived in the Throne Room, King Joffrey sat on his throne with his mother standing beside him. The Master of Whisperers Varys along with Hand of the King Tyrion Lannister, Master of Coin Gyles Rosby and Master of Laws Bennard Brune were also in the room along with several of the Kingsguard including Sandor Clegane and Meryn Trant.

"So you have returned from your scouting mission" Cersei stated "Have you anything to report?"

"Yes my Queen" Travis stated "I do indeed and I have some big news, I believe that the Resistance is about to make a major strike against the Crownlands."

"They would not dare attempt to strike my Kingdom!" Joffrey snapped

"Any idea would be foolish for them" Bennard scoffed "They don't have the numbers to make such a major strike"

"Before they didn't but now they have stolen ships from the city" Travis stated "And I have just received word that Lord Monford Velaryon and Lord Guncer Sunglass have been sent by Stannis to aid the Resistance in their mission"

"And where are the Resistance planning to attack?" Gyles asked

"Considering that my attacks against the Resistance in Crackclaw Point have destroyed parts of the Resistance, I doubt they will attack there. The place they are planning to attack must be Sharp Point, ever since I destroyed the Resistance original fleet, we control Sharp Point and now we can monitor the Narrow Sea. Stannis Baratheon cannot enter Blackwater Bay undetected so the Resistance will most likely strike there."

"And where is this fleet gathering?" Tyrion asked to keep up appearances

Travis sighed "Unfortunately I have not yet been able to discover their location. They have split the fleets up to make it difficult to discover their location. But I can lay an ambush at Sharp Point; a full scale attack by the Resistance is what I've been waiting for so I can wipe them out"

"And when you do, I want you to wipe them all out" Joffrey ordered "Not a single member of that group of traitors is to live. That will serve as a message to my traitor brother of what happens to traitors."

"As you command Your Grace" Travis replied and he left leaving Tyrion and Sandor Clegane with worried looks on their faces.

Anvil:

Arya Stark was in the old castle at Anvil along with her captain, Dion, and the other leaders of the Resistance led by Itius Hayn. The ships that they had stolen from Kings Landing had helped build up a fleet so that they could attack Sharp Point. The Resistance had stolen 20 ships from King's Landing and still had 5 ships left from their original fleet that they had before Travis destroyed it, these ships were led by the Swordfish.

Most of the Resistance cells had gathered at Anvil as this was going to be the first attack that would hopefully bring the war to an end as then Stannis would be able to sail into the Blackwater Bay. The Antler men from Kings Landing had arrived at Anvil as well including Tobho Mott who was busy helping make weapons for the Resistance for their attack. House Rykker of Duskendale had also sent the ships from Duskendale to assist with the attack though many of these ships were just merchant ships but would be able to transport goods to Sharp Point.

Arya looked out of a window to see many other ships of other Resistance cells and more soldiers gathered along Anvil's harbour and town "I can't believe how many of the Resistance cells have gathered here to help attack Sharp Point" she stated

"This is going to be our biggest attack yet" Dion stated "We're going to need all the help we can get"

"Now the Resistance no longer looks like a bunch of rebels protesting, now we seem more like a proper army" Langley added

"This attack will hopefully start the end of the war" Burd stated

"We have the ships we stole from King's Landing along with others ships from other cells" the Resistance's 2nd in command Giovanni stated "But the rebels against the Lannisters in the Vale have given us some of the ships from Gulltown to help as well"

"And we have managed to get help from Houses Velaryon and Sunglass to help as well" Carmalo added

"Houses Sunglass and Velaryon?" Arya questioned

"They are some of the most powerful of the Narrow Sea Houses that have joined Stannis Baratheon" Itius stated "With their help we'll have a much better chance of taking Sharp Point"

It was then that a scout from the city entered the room "Commander Itius" he called "We have ships approaching, they fly the sigil of a silver Seahorse on sea green and a seven stars on white. We also saw a ram's head as well"

"At last" Itius smiled "The Velaryon and Sunglass fleets have arrived" he then looked out of the window with Arya watching as she saw a bunch of ships approaching from the distance.

Riverlands, near Harrenhal:

Martin Baratheon marched with his army towards Harrenhal. The legion scouts had reported a small Lannister army in the forest near where they were marching. Martin had sent Ulfric along with Tullius and their forces and they had arrived back after ambushing the Lannister army and their leader, Harys Swyft had been captured and was now a hostage. Now the Lannisters had fewer men than Martin at Harrenhal but Martin wanted the fight to be over quickly so he could march onto King's Landing and end this war.

"You thinking of something?" Grandmaster Delphine asked

"I'm just thinking about how this war is going to be over soon" Martin stated "Once we capture Harrenhal it won't be long until we capture King's Landing and bring this war to an end."

"Many people have died in this war" Alessia stated as she road next to her brother "But more will die if Joffrey remains on the throne, we've all seen just how he rules"

Willas Tyrell road next to them "I may not have seen what Joffrey's done first hand but I know that he is just unfit to rule. Cersei just wanted to use him as a puppet while Joffrey wanted to do what he wants, that's not fit for a King, which often leads to war."

"Well it has" Martin stated "Joffrey's madness has only brought suffering, he murdered all those children just because they had black hair, only a monster would do that, it's just one of the crimes he will pay for."

The army marched on and soon Martin could see the half melted black stone towers of Harrenhal in the distance "Your Grace" Randyll Tarly spoke "We're approaching Harrenhal, what are our orders?"

"Spread the army out" Martin ordered "Surround Harrenhal and get the men ready, we must be ready to force them to march towards King's Landing"

In Harrenhal:

Tywin Lannister sat in the Great Hall of Harrenhal along with Kevan and some of his other lords. Tywin had called this meeting as Martin's forces had arrived and now he had to discuss what their plans were.

"Martin's forces now surround the castle all over except for the South East" Kevan stated

"Why would he have left that section not surrounded?" one lord questioned

"It's to force us to march out while we still can" Tywin snorted and he looked at Kevan "How are our supplies?"

Kevan sighed "Not good I'm afraid" he stated "Some of our food supplies have rotted and cannot be used, our water supply has also been contaminated, and we must have a few spies among us"

"These spies must be found and killed" a lord shouted in anger

"It will be difficult to find out who did this" Tywin stated "But now we've got less men and not enough food supplies to feed our army. It seems that we have no choice but to leave and make it back to King's Landing"

"Stannis Baratheon is still at Dragonstone" Kevan stated "And we have been told that he won't sail until Sharp Point has been recaptured. But the Resistance is planning to make a move on Sharp Point. If Sharp Point falls, Stannis will be able to sail and will be at Kings Landing in five days, four if he has the wind"

"Then we must march south to defend the capital" Tywin declared "Gather the men, it's time to leave."

King's Landing: Red Keep:

Sandor Clegane was high up on the Raven Tower of the Red Keep. This was where Grand Maester Pycelle would sent and get messages all over the Seven Kingdoms. But he was currently in the Black Cells after being imprisoned by Tyrion Lannister. Sandor had to send a message to the Resistance to warn them that Travis was laying a trap for them at Sharp Point. He did not know where the Resistance base was but he knew that it was located somewhere along the coast and he remembered there being an old abandoned trading outpost so that was where he believed the Resistance was. He pulled a raven out of a cage and attached the message to it. He then let the raven go and watched it fly away towards Duskendale where House Rykker, a House that were fighting for Martin were. But then as he sent another raven, he gasped when an arrow came out of nowhere and struck the raven which shot it down.

"Did you really think we weren't prepared for this" a voice called and Sandor turned to see Travis walking near him "I knew that there was still a spy in the Red Keep and I knew it was you after I saw your reaction to my plans."

Sandor watched as Travis' men along with a few Gold Cloaks led by Ulrich came by him "Do you really think I'm just going to surrender"

"I know you will put up a fight" Travis stated "But it won't matter. Take him" Ulrich along with Travis' men approached as Sandor drew his sword. Sandor was a brutal and skilled fighter and was able to kill a few men but he was eventually knocked to the ground and grabbed by Travis' men "Now we'll take him to the Throne Room and tell the King." He then smirked at Sandor "And thanks to you, the Resistance will be defeated"

Sandor looked confused but then he was dragged away from the Tower and towards the Red Keep.

Wendwater: Crownlands:

The Wendwater was one of the smaller rivers in Westeros starting from the Crownlands and going south into the Stormlands. The river goes through the Kingswood and goes and is the largest river in the Kingswood. The river also had a bloody history since Aegon's conquest as during the Faith Militant uprising, Ser Horys Hill, a hedge knight and leader of the Poor Fellows was killed in an ambush at the Wendwater while trying to rescue another leader, Jeyne Poore. The dragon known as Sheepstealer was also known to steal sheep from flocks along the Wendwater. But the Wendwater was most well-known for the Battle of Wendwater Bridge which was the only battle of the Fourth Blackfyre when Daemon Blackfyre III led an invasion but had very little support and was killed in the battle by the Lord Commander of the Kingsguard Ser Duncan the Tall. The loyalists suffered less than 100 dead.

Located along with river in the Kingswood is the small castle of Wendwater, the seat of House Wendwater. House Wendwater was a small house sworn to Kings Landing. The castle was small but it was located along the Kingsroad and was a very important strategic post for an army passing through the Kingswood. It was why Ser Garlen Tyrell along with his brother Loras and the men they had gathered had attacked Wendwater to secure the road to Kings Landing for their forces. The attack had been by surprise as no one throught that anyone would attack House Wendwater. They had been quickly defeated in less than a day and Garlen had secured the castle.

Garlen and Loras had been busy gathering support for Martin, they did not agree with their father's plans to ally with Joffrey when he was just like the Mad King but Mace Tyrell wanted power and make his daughter Queen but he also wanted to control the Throne which was why he would be unable to do that with Martin. Mace Tyrell was a fool with great ambitions and Garlen knew that his plans would fall apart. Garlen remembered his grandmother, Lady Olenna Tyrell who also wanted power but was much more skilled in the Game and was known as the Queen of Thorns. She may have been old but she was skilled and cunning. She had also agreed that Joffrey was a lost cause but there was not much she could do but she had encouraged Garlen and Loras to do what they could to gather men and had encouraged their sister Margaery to undermine the Lannisters in Kings Landing.

Garlen and Loras had been able to gather a force of 25,000 men from the Reach. The Reach has the biggest population in any of the Seven Kingdoms and was able to raise an army of 100,000. They had gathered the support of Houses Peake, Fossoway, Florent, Oakheart, Ashford, Mullendore and Osgrey. However, Houses Caswell and Footly had turned away and re-joined Mace Tyrell when his army approached Bitterbridge and Tumbleton which had resulted in House Ashford only being able to send half their forces as they needed to defend Ashford. Houses Rowan and Redwyne had also joined Lord Mace Tyrell along with Houses Merryweather, Cuy, Crane, Graceford, Meadows, Roxton, Shermer, Vyrwel and Webber.

Garlen was in his commander's tent along with his brother and their top commanders which were men of House Florent. Lord Alester Florent along with his brother Axell and nephew Imry. There was mistrust in the camp as Garlen knew that House Florent believed that they were the rightful rulers of Highgarden. After the Field of Fire during Aegon's conquest and the extinction of House Gardener, Highgarden's stewards, House Tyrell became the new Lord of Highgarden when other Houses believed that they should be. House Florent were descended from House Gardener through Florys the Fox, daughter of Garth Greenhand.

"Now that we have captured Wendwater, it's is time that we march on Kings Landing" Imry stated

"Patience" Garlen stated "We need to be patient, if we rush thinks then we have a bigger chance of making a mistake"

Axell narrowed his eyes at Garlen "How can we trust you, your father is fighting for our enemy, for all we know you are secretly working for him to destroy us"

Loras drew his sword out "How dare you!" he snapped "We follow the wishes of King Renly and I will never follow a Mad boy like my father wishes."

Garlen was able to grab his brother "Just calm down" he ordered "All of you, I know you are frustrated but we can' just march on Kings Landing, Martin is still at Harrenhal and Stannis is at Dragonstone, we can't take Kings Landing on our own, the Lannisters have more men thanks to our father. We need to wait so we can attack at the right time"

The Florent then left leaving Garlen and Loras alone "I don't trust them" Loras stated "The Florents have always desired to be the Lords of Highgarden."

"We'll keep a close eye on them" Garlen stated "But right now we must wait, once we hear that Martin is marching south from Harrenhal then we can march south"

"How do you think Margaery is going?" Loras asked

"Father has taken her to Kings Landing." Garlen stated "She always wanted to be queen but even I don't think she will like Joffrey. From what I've heard, he's just like the Mad King, I may have been young when during Robert's Rebellion but I still remember the stories of what the Mad King would do. If Joffrey was weak then Margaery would rule through him but that is not going to happen but now I am worried for our sister's life."

"Margaery is a skilful woman" Loras stated "She'll find a way to survive"

Kings Landing: Red Keep:

Margaery Tyrell walked with her father and his top men, Lord Mathis Rowan and Paxter Redwyne. Mathis Rowan was the Head of House Rowan of Goldengrove, one of the most powerful Houses in the Reach and was the Marshall of the Northmarch which meant he was the overlord of the Northern Reach. Mathis was stout, florid and clean shaven and wore a snowy doublet with his House sigil, a golden tree, stitched on with golden thread. Mathis stayed loyal to his liege lord and marched with him to declare for Joffrey. Unlike Lord Mace, Mathis was a skilled commander and a skilled lord but he was loyal to the Tyrells and had to join Lord Mace in declaring for Joffrey. Paxter Redwyne was the lord of the Arbor and he commanded the Redwyne fleet, one of the most powerful private fleets in Westeros which was used to defend the Arbor against pirate raids, mainly from the Iron Islands. Paxter was stooped of shoulder, thin and balding with only a few orange tufts of hair remaining. He had originally not declared for Renly as his sons were being held hostage in Kings Landing but now he had declared for Joffrey with Lord Mace Tyrell.

Margaery looked around her and saw the streets were filthy and there weren't many people out at all and the few people who were out gave hateful glares at them. In the Reach, Margaery was well liked and the people loved her for her kindness. Seeing people glare hatefully at her was not something she saw. But she soon saw why as they soon came to the Red Keep and on the Traitor walk which displayed the Heads of traitors was filled with heads on spikes. There were so many that extra spikes had been put up and many of the heads were rotting. She had heard that with the Resistance in the Crownlands and there were people who supported them in the city. Ever since the riot, the city guard had cracked down on the supporters and executed many of them without trial so some weren't even guilty on anything.

After a while, the group came to the throne room of the Red Keep where they were introduced by the steward "Entering the Red Keep, Lord Mace Tyrell, Lord of Highgarden, Defender of the Marches, High Marshall of the Reach and Warden of the South."

Mace Tyrell proudly walked forward with Mathis and Paxter while Margaery looked around the room, the Red Keep was nothing like she expected, in the Reach the castle were well decorated with great tapestries and paintings, there was none of that in the Red Keep. The walls seemed to have weapons on display including weapons that were covered in blood. There was a red carpet across the main floor which led up to the Iron Throne itself. The members of the Kingsguard stood in front of the Throne with the City Guard standing along the walls. Margaery then saw King Joffrey for the first time and he was not the handsome boy she had originally though he would be before the Civil War started. Joffrey sat on the Iron Throne, his blond hair was spiked and she saw that one eye was covered with an eye-patch. His face did not look friendly as well as she saw a look of anger and fury on his face. His mother, Cersei Lannister stood next to him while Margaery saw a large yellow and black spotted Jaguar on the other side. The Jaguar did not look friendly at all and it growled and snarled at anyone who stood nearby. She had also began hearing stories that Joffrey fed criminals to his Jaguar alive

Joffrey just stared at Mace Tyrell and his group "The last I heard, you had joined forced with my traitorous uncle, Renly"

Mace snorted "That man-loving fool, he thought he could use his friendship with my son to take the throne. Well he isn't around anymore so now we can help serve the one true King"

The Master of Whisperers, Varys, stared at him "My little birds told me that your sons don't think the same as you do. They say that they have sworn themselves to Martin and have captured Wendwater"

Mace Tyrell narrowed his eyes "They aren't my sons. I am the Lord of the Highgarden and warden of the South. If they choose to fight for a traitor then they are no children of mine. I will find someone else to be Lord of Highgarden after me, perhaps one of my nephews. Though at least my daughter has remained loyal to me."

Margaery stepped forward and gave a slight bow "Your Grace"

Joffrey gave a smirk which make Margaery nervous "I see that your daughter is a beauty unlike any other I have seen"

"Then perhaps we can secure an alliance with a marriage pact" Mace stated "My daughter's last husband was lost to her, and since he preferred the company of men, she remains innocent" Joffrey sat up at this "I would ask that you find it in your heart to do us the great honour of joining our Houses together."

"Is this what you want, my lady Margaery?" Joffrey asked

Margaery knew that she had to be careful here, the wrong word could land her in big trouble. But she was good at acting thanks to her grandmother so she gave a fake smile "It is your grace" she lied "I have heard stories about you, how great of a King you are. I can see how brave you are and not letting your scares let you down"

Joffrey's one eye gleamed with lust "I too have heard tales of your beauty lady Margaery, that there is no one in the Seven Kingdoms that is as young and beautiful as you. Those tales are indeed true, it would be an honour to return your love." Then he shared a look with his mother "But I am promised to another and a King always keeps his word"

Cersei smiled at her son "Your Grace" she stated "In the judgement of your small Council, it wouldn't be wise for you to wed the daughter of a traitor. And that same girl is missing and may indeed be dead." There was still no sign of Sansa since she disappeared during the Riot. "And who's brother is in open rebellion against the Iron Throne. The Small council advise that you forget about her and marry someone who will help us win the war."

Joffrey stared at his mother and then at the people gathered "The woman I was betrothed too is now missing and is most likely dead, she is also the daughter of a traitor and brother of another. As Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, I accept this offer. I shall take lady Margaery as my queen, but only after we have defeated my traitor brother and with the Tyrell's army, we shall have a great chance of that happening."

The supporters of Joffrey began clapping and cheering for him while the Tyrells had smiles on their faces though Margaery had a fake smile on her face but no one noticed it. Tyrion had a concerned look on his face though he was able to hide it as everyone was distracted. With the support of the Tyrells, now Joffrey had a much bigger force at King's Landing which would make the final battle more difficult. While some of the sellswords might flee, the Tyrells would stay loyal and remain at Kings Landing.

But then the great doors opened and a messenger entered the room. This was one of Travis Thresh's people who approached the throne and knelt "Your Grace" the man stated "I'm sorry for the interruption but Admiral Travis has an important message for you. We have just caught a spy in the city sending a message to the Resistance."

Joffrey's face curled into a sneer "So we have finally found the traitor in the Keep" he sneered "Bring him here, it's time to show what happens to traitors."

Several city guards led by Ulrich entered the Throne room along with Travis Thresh, but both Joffrey and Cersei were shocked when they saw who they were dragging in, it was Joffrey's sworn shield, Sandor Clegane "My dog!" Joffrey spat "You mean my dog is our traitor!"

Travis nodded "We caught him red handed sending two messages." He stated "One was going to Duskendale while the other I believe must have been going to the Resistance"

Cersei smirked "I'm disappointed in you Hound" Cersei stated "My father though high of you and you have served my son loyally for the years you served in."

Sandor spat in disgust "You think I was happy serving a prick like him!" he spat "All those times he insulted me because of my face, I only served him to stay away from my brother, and I've found someone who sees me as who I am. So yeah I helped the Resistance against that prick."

"How dare you speak to your King like that!" Joffrey shouted

"Yeah" Sandor laughed "The King who kills children throughout the city. The King who started a civil war within days of his rule. The King who is clearly madder than the Mad King. Half the realm hates you and I would rather be on the right side this time. This is what I say, Fuck the Lannisters and Fuck the King" he was rewarded with a punch on the face by Ulrich for that.

"I have you killed for this!" Joffrey snarled "I'll have you tortured really slowly then burnt alive!"

Travis then managed to calm the King down "Yes, traitors deserved to be punished" he stated "But it's ironic, he tried to warn the Resistance of the ambush waiting for them at Sharp Point but now he had just given me the final piece of the puzzle I needed to find the Resistance's headquarters."

"Explain" Cersei ordered

"When Guncer Sunglass and Monford Velayron sailed to the Resistance, they headed to Duskendale first but went south so the Resistance is not at Duskendale though Lord Rykker is a supporter of the Resistance. And the second raven that the Hound sent was heading North East towards the lands of House Rosby. Seperatly they mean nothing, but together they prove that the Resistance headquarters is located in the lands of House Rosby"

Lord Gyles Rosby snorted "There is no Resistance headquarters on my lands" he snorted "I have patrols all over, there is no way that the Resistance has set up a base there."

Travis smirked "They didn't need to set up a base when there was already one set up. You do not study old maps but if you had then you would have found the perfect base for the Resistance to set up. An old merchant outpost from the days of the old Septim Empire, long since abandoned but still holds a strong location for a hideout. I believe that the place is known as Anvil, an old Merchant outpost and fortress to control the Narrow Sea from the days of the Septim Empire. Now it's the home of the Resistance."

Joffrey smirked "So now we know the location of the Resistance"

"We do indeed" Travis stated "And with them all gathering for their planned attack, we can strike them while they plan their attack, they still don't know that we know their location. With your permission, I can sail with my fleet and attack the Resistance while they are in the harbour, I can shatter their fleet but I won't be able to invade as I don't have an army, only sailors."

Mace Tyrell decided that this was the time for him to get involved "Your Grace" he stated "I too would like to get involved in this fight. I can surround this Anvil by land and prevent their escape. The Redwyne Fleet can also assist by sea as well."

"Do it" Joffrey stated "Crush the Resistance and kill every last one of them. This will serve as a message to my brother and all those who support him about what happens to traitors."

"And what of this dog" Ulrich asked while he held onto Sandor.

Joffrey narrowed his eyes "Take him to the Black Cells, I'll deal with him later."

Mace Tyrell along with Admiral Travis then left the room as Sandor Clegane was dragged away to the cells. Joffrey and Cersei had smirks on their faces but no one noticed the look of horror on Tyrion's face. The Resistance had been discovered and now they were about to be wiped out.

Rivenspire: Unknown location:

In a secret location located somewhere within the region of Rivenspire, two figures were standing in front of a strange relic. This was the same relic that had cursed Baron Wylon Montclair and his family. The room was a large room with white stone walls and pillars that were crumbling. The first of the figures was an old balding man with a little bit of hair on the back of his head and a wrinkled face. He wore chainmail armour with a black wooden staff on his face. The second man was a golden skinned high elf wearing a blood red robe with a hood that covered his head.

"Our men have just informed us that Reezal-Jul is dead" the High Elf stated

"That fool!" the other man spat "I thought you said that you and your cult could help me become King of Rivenspire Raven!"

The High Elf turned out to be Raven Cameron, the son of Mankar Cameron of the Mythic Dawn. The mission he had been sent on was to help cause chaos in this place and hopefully capture Daenerys and her dragons which he would deliver to her brother and the dragons could help them in their planned attack on Westeros "This is not over yet Wylon, we still have a chance."

The other man was Baron Wylon Montclair and his eyes narrowed at Raven "A chance, ever since that white hair brat got involved, this have turned against me. They foiled my attack on Shornhelm and now Reezal-Jul is dead."

"Well they still don't know where we are so our attacks will still happen" Raven stated "And your daughter has achieved something for us. She came to me and asked for something to do so she could help. I gave her some of our men and she has taken control of Northpoint. Now with Northpoint under our control, we can get more supplies and she had a tight told on the town."

Wylon smiled "I knew my daughter would make me proud."

"And I'm going to head there myself" Raven stated "I'll steal the girl's dragons and bring them here so we can deliver them to her brother. I may even allow you to keep one of them so you can hold onto your crown."

"Just make sure that you keep your end of the deal" Wylon stated

"Oh we will" Raven stated and then he waved his hand and created a portal which he then walked towards. As soon as he walked through the portal, there was a flash of light and the portal closed leaving Wylon alone as he sat on a metal and stone throne.

Meanwhile, the Road to Northpoint.

It had been a few days since Daenerys and her group had fought at Camp Tamrith and Reezal-Jul had been killed by Jorah. Countess Tamrith had decided that they should go on toward Northpoint and ask Baron Alard Dorell if he had found anything to do with Montclair. Daenerys along with Jorah, Damien and Captain Janeve had travelled along the roads towards the town of Northpoint. Along the way they had reunited with Farengar and Verandis at an old ruin known as Lorkrata Hills, an old ruin fortress which Verandis had tried to use to find the location of Wylon's headquarters. He hadn't uncovered anything but had discovered that there was trouble at Northpoint.

The city of Northpoint was created by a rich merchant who first built a port and then built the city around it during the days of the Septim Empire before the region came under the control of the Septims. The founders eventually became House Dorell after they joined the Empire and Northpoint became one of the biggest ports in the whole peninsular and even today, the port handled most of the trade with Essos. The city itself was large with two gates, one at the south and one at the west. There was also a lighthouse on the beach just north of the city.

Daenerys and her group arrived but were shocked to see that House Dorell had set up camp outside the city and there seemed to be men setting up catapults ready.

"What has happened here?" Daenerys questioned

"It seems that what Verandis and I saw in Lorkrata Hills is true" Farengar stated "The Montclairs have taken Northpoint."

"So what do we do?" Jorah asked

"I suggest that we find someone who can tell us what has happened" Daenerys stated

It was then the Damien spotted someone who he knew. It was the Orc Warrior, Skordo the Knife, someone who Daenerys had rescued back at Shornhelm. "Skordo" he greeted

The orc warrior turned around and when he saw Damien, he laughed "Well look who it is" he stated "Damien, I see that you and the others have arrived. I have you to thank for saving me at Shornhelm"

Daenerys looked at him "So what has happened here, why is the city of Northpoint about to be besieged?"

Skordo sighed "When Baron Alard got back here, he saw that the city had been captured, he quickly called for his remaining soldiers to surround the city."

"So how did the Montclairs capture the city?" Daenerys asked

"My foolish son, that's why!" a voice grumbled and Baron Alard arrived with a furious look on his face "When I left for Shornhelm, I left my son Ellic in charge of the city and he was ordered to hold the city while I was away. While I was away, Wylon's daughter Lleraya arrived at the city and claimed she was here to try and make peace. My guess is that she seduced my son and is now ruling the city from the inside using him as her puppet. I bet my son just wanted to sleep with her, he's always been one for sleeping with the ladies."

"So now you have to attack you own home?" Jorah stated

Alard sighed "This city has been my family's home for thousands of years, I don't want to attack my own home but I can't let a pretender hold my own home."

"A siege could last for months" Farengar stated "There has to be a quicker way to capture the city"

"Well there is actually" Skordo stated "Some of the surviving guards of the city are in the city forming a Resistance and are at the Inn. But Lleraya is using her magic to summon Gargoyles to attack them. But if we can get into the city, we can defeat these Gargoyles. There's an old smugglers tunnel located at the lighthouse but it is now surrounded by the Montclairs."

"But we may be able to capture it and sneak in" Damien stated "Then we can open the gates and let the Dorell forces in"

"But there are too many for us to fight" Skordo stated "The only way to get in is to distract them."

Daenerys turned around and looked at the cages which held her dragons. After fighting at Reezal Jul's cave, hey had become more aggressive and wanted to fight more. She sighed and looked at Farengar "I know what to do, but we must be careful" she stated.

Jorah and Farengar looked a bit worried about what she was planning to do.

Fort Fellhammer: The Westerlands:

Robb's army approached the Fortress of Fort Fellhammer which was where the Third Legion was based. The castle was being besieged by a Lannister army led by Daven Lannister. Lord Tytos Brax and Lord Gwaen Westerling had told Robb that Daven was a good man and wanted to avenge his father Stafford's death but believed that the Starks were responsible. But they had brought the evidence from Kayce which proved that Reginald Lannister had been responsible for Stafford Lannister's death at Oxcross. Also leading the army was Ser Philip Foote and Lord Regenard Estren, both of who were actually working for Reginald as the letter had shown them.

The Fortress of Fort Fellhammer had once been the home of an old mine and ran by a House Fellhammer, an old noble House from the Age of Heroes. They had been petty Kings but unlike other Houses, they fought till the end against the Lannisters and were wiped out and Fort Fellhammer became part of the Lands owed by House Lannister and ran by a cadet branch of the family. But when the mine dried up, the Fort was abandoned and became home to a bandit clan. When the Third Legion was created, they captured the Fortress from the bandits and it became their headquarters. They had also discovered a large amount of Iron ore underground in the old mine so they had recruited miners to mine the Iron to use for weapons.

Daven Lannister was a better commander than his father as he had set up scouts to watch out for the enemy and had also set up catapults to attack the walls of the Fort. But they could only launch small rocks as they did not have the equipment for launching large rocks and flaming pitch. The Third Legion were well trained and had been able to damage the catapults using flaming arrows which had set the catapults of fire and they could kill the soldiers since they were well trained. But there was only a limited amount of time that they could hold out.

When Robb arrived, he stayed on a hillside to watch the camp, he knew that Daven would be ready if they attacked so he sent Galbert Glover ahead under a banner of truce to try and convince Daven to meet with Robb. He knew that Galbert was a better choice than Rickard Karstark or Greatjon Umber due to the both of them being proud noblemen and would attack if they were insulted. They waited for a while but soon they saw a few rider approaching them. Robb sighed in relief when he saw Galbert Glover was okay. He then saw several Lannister soldiers being led by a man who Robb presumed was Daven Lannister.

Daven Lannister had lively hazel eyes, a pug nose, yellow hair and a big chin. His hair had grown very long along with his thick yellow beard, ever since his father's death, Daven had refused to cut his hair until his father had been avenged. He also wore armour that was suitable for a Lannister commander as he had a golden lion engraved on his red breastplate with lion shoulder guards and a lion shape helm with a fox fur cloak.

The riders stopped a short distance from Robb and Daven removed his helmet "Lord Stark, Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North" Daven greeted "I was surprised that you asked for a parley with me"

"I thought that you had the right to know the truth" Robb replied "Reginald and Flement stated that you were a good man and would listen when I told you what really happened at Oxcross."

"I know what happened!" Daven snapped "People made silly stories about you turning into a wolf and then ambushing my father's army and then feasting on the flesh. But I know that my father didn't set up proper defences and was ambushed by you. My father died in the battle, Reginald Lannister told me that."

Robb sighed "That is not what happened" he stated "Stafford Lannister was already dead before we arrived. Reginald Lannister murdered him along with Rupert Brax"

"What!" Daven gasped and then his eyes narrowed "Is that some kind of a joke, why would Reginald Lannister murder my father?"

"Because he knew what Stafford Lannister was really doing" Flement Brax stated "Lord Tywin Lannister supports Prince Martin in secret, Stafford's army was meant to help reinforce Robb in his so called conquest of the Westerlands to help eliminate Joffrey's loyalists. Reginald found out and killed Stafford in response. Reginald conspired with Rupert Brax and several others to become the new Lord of Casterly Rock"

Daven looked conflicted "I know that Reginald Lannister is someone who's always desired to be more powerful" he stated "But why should I believe you, for all I know this is just a trick, I need to see proof of your claims."

Robb pulled out the letter that had been recovered at Kayce which proved what Reginald had done "I think this letter will prove our claims" he stated as he handed it to Daven "This was recovered at Kayce and it's a letter from Reginald to Lord Terrence Kenning of Kayce"

Daven took the letter and when he finished, he was in shock which quickly turned to anger.

Anvil:

Arya Stark along with Burd and Langley were in the halls of Anvil where the soldiers of the Resistance were preparing for their attack on Sharp Point. Lord Monford Velaryon and Guncer Sunglass had arrived several days ago and they had been planning with the Resistance leaders for their attack on Sharp Point. Arya was looking forward to be fighting and taking the fight to the Lannisters. But then she spotted the Resistance Healer, Caelia Draconis nearby with her brother Matthias and both seemed upset. Arya walked over to them "Hey what's wrong?" she asked "Has something happened?"

Caelia looked at Arya "I remember you, I healed you after Travis' first attack" she stated "Well we're upset because we have just received some bad news from King's Landing about our brother Andreas."

Arya remembered that Andreas Draconis had worked at a tavern in King's Landing and was someone who sent information to the Resistance "Has something happened?" she asked

"Yes" Matthias stated "Andreas is dead, he was discovered by the city guard helping members of the Resistance escape. I've had word that he's been executed for this."

"First our older sister leaves us to live in a cave" Caelia stated "Then our mother is murdered and now our brother is dead, our family is falling apart"

"Hey, we still have each other" Matthias stated "As long as we stay together, our family will be alright"

"I guess you're right" Caelia stated

"But we still have a chance to end this war" came the voice of Arya sister Sansa. Arya was happy that Sansa was back and she would be staying here with the Resistance until the war was over and it was safe for them to return home. Sansa had decided to be useful and helped Caelia with her healing.

Then the door opened and Arya's commander Dion entered the room "Arya, Commander Itius wants to see us, it's time for our plan to be revealed to us."

"Coming" Arya stated and then she followed Dion into another room which had become the Resistance headquarters. Commander Itius Hayn was in the room along with other commanders including Giovanni Civello, Carmalo Truaid and Gepard Montrose. Lord Monford Velaryon, the ruler of Driftmark was there as well along with his half-brother Aurane Waters and Lord Guncer Sunglass. Monford was a handsome man with long fair hair and wore a sea green silk top with a white golden seahorse brooch. Aurane Waters was handsome and thin and had silver-gold hair like the Targaryens, the Velaryons were also from Valyria like the Targaryens were. He also had grey-green eyes and a beard. Lord Guncer was a pious man who wore moonstone at his throat, wrists and fingers.

"So now that we are all here, we will reveal our plan" Itius stated "We sail to Sharp Point in two days. Houses Velaryon and Sunglass sail after us to throw the Lannisters off. Sharp Point is heavily defended so our warships will distract the fleet while our troopships sail around them and land on the shore near Sharp Point. We'll take Sharp Point and then we can then allow Stannis to sail into the Blackwater unopposed and we weaken Travis and the Lannister fleet."

"A good plan" Monford stated "My fleet is ready to sail with you"

"And mine" Guncer Sunglass stated "May the Seven smile on us."

But then the door opened and a Resistance member, Viera Lerus entered. Viera was the only female commander and led a group of woman fighters to kill rapists throughout the Crownlands "I'm sorry commanders but we've just had a message from Duskendale"

"From Lord Rykker, why is he sending us a message?" Itius questioned as he took the letter and then he read it and his face turned grim "It seems that Travis knows about our attack on Sharp Point. Sandor sent Lord Rykker a message warning him about this"

"Well we still have plenty of ships and the strongest ship in Westeros" Gerpard stated "We can still strike at Sharp Point."

But then another Scout entered the room "Commander, there's a fleet approaching us from the South. Some of the ships fly Lannister lions while others fly a bunch of grapes.

"The Redwyne Fleet" Aurane Waters stated grimly "It seems Paxter Redwyne has joined the Lannisters"

"And they are also led by a huge warship with a golden hull" the scout added

"Travis Thresh" Itius stated "He's found us"

Giovanni turned to his men "Alert the Resistance, we're getting out of here" he ordered

Gepard slammed his hand against the table "We're going to have to scrap the plans now, we've got to get out of here now!"

"No!" Arya groaned "I can't believe it, we were so close"

"This is now a fight to escape alive" Itius stated and then he turned to Monford and Guncer "You two, get out of here now, we've got to get our men out of here, you two still have time to escape."

"You do that" Monford stated "Aurane and I will distract them" then the three of them left the room and went over to gather their ships.

Outside Anvil, on the Justice:

Onboard Travis Tresh's personal ship, the Justice, Travis stood at the bow and looked at Anvil. There was no deneying that this was the Resistance headquarters as he could see the ships gathered. Paxter Redwyne had sent 100 ships of the Redwyne fleet while the remaining ships of the Lannisters ships had also joined him. Along with his personal ship, Travis had the Lannister ships which included the Godsgrace, Kingslander, Lady of Silk, Lady's Shame, Lance, Lionstar, Loyal Man, prince Aemon, Queen Cersei and the Seaswift. The Lannister ships carried wildfire on since Travis did not want any of that fiery substance on his ships.

"Admiral" Tarvis' lookout stated "Some of the ships are trying to escape"

Travis sneered "There will be no escape for the Resistance" he stated "Alert the Queen Cersei to fire on the lead ship"

A message was sent toward the Queen Cersei, one of the warships that carried the Wildfire. The crew quickly loaded their catapults with jars of wildfire and then the wildfire was launched from the catapult. The ship that was fired at was the Piety, one of Guncer Sunglass' ships commander by Hubard Rambton. The wildfire struck the ship and within minutes, the ship was ablaze and the crew tried to jump overboard only to be burnt alive by the wildfire below.

Back at Anvil, the Resistance could only watch in horror as Travis' fleet surrounded the coastline which blocked them in.

Beyond the Wall: Fist of the First Men:

The Nights Watch and Dawnguard were still at the Fist. They were waiting to see any signs of Jon Snow and his group including Qhorin Halfhand. They had been gone for a while now and now some were having doubts that they would be returning as they had been gone for a long time. And that was not their only problem, some of the members of the Night's Watch were starting to get angry and there were fears that there may be a mutiny soon. The Dawnguard were loyal to Grandmaster Isran but many of the Night's Watch members were former criminals and were not loyal to Lord Commander Mormont.

Agmaer watched over the hill from the Fist. He looked for any sign of Jon returning but all he could see was snow and Mountains. There was no tree in sight as they were now near the Frostfangs and there was heavy snow building up. Many people were complaining about the cold and the Dawnguard Healer, Florentius had been busy trying to help people who got frostbite. The Dawnguard had warmer tents but were unable to share them with everyone since they did not have enough but there were tensions starting to mount.

"You okay lad" a voice called which distracted Agmaer and he turned to see the Dawnguard member Gunmar near him "You've been looking out there for a long time"

"I'm just watching for any sign of Jon or the Halfhand" Agmaer replied

Gunmar sighed "Lad, I don't want to admit it, but I don't think they'll be coming back. They've been gone for some time now and if they haven't returned then there's a chance that he might be dead."

Agmaer stood up "He's not dead, Jon Snow wouldn't fall that easily" he hissed angrily

Gunmar sighed "Maybe he is alive" he stated "But we don't know where he is, let's just hope that he can find his way back to the Wall. But anyway, Grandmaster Isran wants to see you."

Agmaer sighed and he went to find Grandmaster Isran who was with Lord Commander Mormont along with his Night's Watch friends Grenn and Edd.

"Agmaer, we have a mission for you" Isran said as soon as he saw him

Mormont looked at him "You may not like this but we're going back to the Wall in a few days" he said "I know that you're sad about Jon but we are running out of supplies and these storms aren't helping. You along with Grenn and Edd will do a small scout to try and find animal dung to use as fuel, we may need these fires with these storms."

Agmaer sighed but he obeyed his orders so he then went down the hill with Grenn and Edd to try and find animal dung for fuel.

The Wildling Camp:

Jon Snow and the group he took with him to the tomb had returned to the Wildling camp with the Horn of Winter. They had taken it straight to Mance Rayder's camp where he had gazed at the horn and smiled.

"So the horn is real" Mance said as he admired the Horn. The horn was made from animal bone and had Dragonglass around it. This horn was said to bring down the wall if blown but Mance claimed that was just a legend. But the horn was still a symbol of leadership and now Mance could be seen as the true King beyond the Wall. Mance then looked at Jon after he finished admiring the Horn "And I see that you were true to your word."

"I always keep my word" Jon said "But we took loses, Harma died in the tomb, along with Lynoit and Qhorin"

"I may not have liked the Halfhand but no one deserved a fate like that" Tormund stated "He was killed by the dead, that was a painful death for him."

"He was a crow!" The Lord of Bones hissed "We shouldn't be morning him, we should be celebrating"

Jon narrowed his eyes and nearly charged at the Lord of Bones but Serena placed his hand on his shoulder "Not now Jon Snow" she stated "We have bigger problems that this. We may have gained the trust of some of the Wildlings by bringing the Horn back but many among the Watch will not be happy about allowing them to come South beyond the Wall."

"I'm more concerned about these Dragur you told me about" Mance stated "There are many more tombs beyond the Wall in these lands and the White Walkers could add thousands of Dragur to their army. Before they just used to raise the recent dead as wights but now they don't need too."

"This is why we have to stand together" Jon stated "In times like this the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The White Walkers are the real threat and if they come south and we are not united then they will destroy us. We have to stand together to defeat this enemy."

Mance smiled "A good speech Jon." He said "But many wildlings are stubborn and I know that many in the south will not believe us and they won't listen to the Night's Watch either. But right now, we have to find out where the Army of the Dead are."

"And how do we do that?" Ollrod asked

Mance smiled "Come with me, I want to introduce you to someone."

Sunspear: Dorne:

Myrcella Baratheon along with her protector, Arys Oakheart had arrived at one of the rooms inside Sunspear castle. The oldest Sand Snakes, Obara, Nymeria and Tyene were also in the room along with Trystane and Arianne. Lord Doran Martell and his brother Oberyn were sitting on thrones while their children sad beside them. Ellaria Sand was with Oberyn after taking the younger Sand Snakes to their rooms. What was about to happen should not be seen by them. Myrcella sat next to her betrothed Trystane who smiled at him.

"You know, you don't have to see this" Trystane stated "This is not something that you should see."

"If I'm going to be living here then I must get used to seeing things like this" Myrcella stated

Then she got to have a look around the room. The room was large but most of the room was filled with a large pit. Inside the pit were many venomous snakes and there was a cage hanging above the cage. Inside the cage was a sobbing Amory Lorch who was wearing nothing but rags and his face was covered in dirt. His hair was unkempt and messy and his beard had grown. The Blades which had brought Amory to Dorne had left some time ago and were now heading back to meet up with Martin in the Crownlands. The floor of the Cage was attached to some kind of cable which went to the wall and attached to a lever. The view reminded Myrcella of a story that she had heard as a child. The story of how Baelor the Blessed had been forced by Lord Wyl to walk through a pit of snakes to rescue his nephew, Aemon the Dragonknight from a cage. Baelor had been bitten many times and had to be carried out of Dorne and nearly died of the poison.

Doran Martell sat on his throne and looked at Amory "Amory Lorch, you have been charged for the murder of Princess Rhaenerys Targaryen 17 years ago during the sack of King's Landing. You dragged the young girl from under her bed and stabbed her half a hundred times."

"Please" Amory begged "Please, I had no choice"

"No choice!" Oberyn hissed "You obeyed the orders of the Old Lion who ordered you to murder innocent people."

"Not Tywin Lannister!" Amory stated "The Mountain, it has his idea, Tywin wanted the children speared and the mother imprisoned. The Mountain wanted blood and wanted to show that he could do whatever he wanted. He knew that King Robert would love it if the children were dead. He threatened to crush my skull if I didn't help him." There were many tears falling from his eyes now.

The Revelation stunned Oberyn and Doran. For years they believed that Tywin Lannister had ordered the deaths of Princess Elia Martell and her children by Rhaegar Targaryen. But now they had just learnt that the Mountain and Amory Lorch had acted alone in this. But it didn't change anything "It doesn't change a thing" Doran stated "You still murdered a child which needs to be punished. And you didn't come forward all those years ago about what had happened. You were also involved in other crimes of murder and rape in the Riverlands so you will still be punished for it."

"And I'm looking forward to watching it" Oberyn sneered

Amory stared down at the pit filled with snakes and he knew what was about to happen. Desperately, Amory turned to Myrcella "Princess please!" he begged "Stop them, please!"

Myrcella shook her head "My brother has always wanted to see you and the Mountain pay" she replied "I only regret that my brother isn't here to see this"

Amory had tears in his eyes and then the floor under him gave way when a Dornish guard pulled the lever which brought the floor away. Amory yelled as he fell into the pit filled with snakes. The snakes were not happy when Amory landed on them and quickly they slithered over him and began biting him. Amory moaned loudly in pain each time he was bitten. Some of the snakes infected him with their venom quickly and turned his skin, black, yellow and blue from the bites. Everyone then went to the edge of the pit and watched as the snakes kept biting Amory Lorch. For some time, Amory cried as the snake bit him before his body relaxed and then his eyes closed.

No one felt sorry as they watched Amory Lorch die from the snakes and Oberyn Martell was pleased with himself, he had finally been able to get some justice for his sister.

Anvil:

Travis Thresh had been able to use his large fleet made up of his own, the Lannister and Redwyne fleets and had surrounded the waters around Anvil which trapped the Resistance ships in the waters around Anvil. Not long after, Mace Tyrell along with his army had arrived and surrounded Anvil by land and had trapped them inside. This time, Mace wasn't a fool and had ordered catapult to be built so he could attack Anvil's walls.

After sinking the Piety, Travis' next target had been the Velaryon fleet which had been trying to escape. The Lannister ships which were the closet had opened fired. The Lannister ship, Kingslander had attacked the Velaryon ships, Sceptre and Faithful and had managed to sink the Sceptre before retreating after damaging the Faithful. The Faithful was later sunk by Godsgrace. The Red Raven got struck by Wildfire and sank quickly while the Lady Marya had attacked some of the Redwyne ships. Lady Marya managed to sink two ships and damaging three more before she capsized and sank. The Harridan had managed to damage the Lance but her rudder was damaged and had drifted toward the Redwyne fleet where she too sank. In a desperate attempt to escape, the Courageous had attacked the Lady's Shame and had rammed the ship quickly and the Lady's Shame broke in two and sank. But now the ship was close to Travis' Thresh's personal ship, the Justice which launched flaming pitch at the ship causing the ship to catch fire. The Courageous managed to get away and abandon ship before breaking apart. The Resistance ship, the Cat, managed to pick up the survivors. The surviving ships of the Velaryon fleet which included Monford Velaryon's flagship, the Pride of Driftmark and Aurane Water's ship, the Seahorse, had managed to retreat to the Resistance fleet along with the Bold Laughter which had been damaged during the fight.

The Pride of Driftmark moved alongside the Swordfish which was the personal ship of Itius Hayn, the ship that he commanded when they took the fleet from Sharp Point. Monford stood to the side of his deck and looked at Itius who was on the Swordfish.

"It's no good" Monford stated "There are too many ships for us to deal with, we can't break through"

"Well we have to keep trying" Itius stated "If we don't break through then they will destroy us one ship at a time."

Monford looked back at Anvil and saw the King Robert's Hammer in the port along with the White Hart, Wildwind and Seaflower "What about using the Hammer" Monford suggested "It has enough firepower to break through the fleet."

"Giovanni is refusing to use the Hammer until we have evacuated Anvil, that ship has enough space to hold the remaining Resistance soldiers" Itius stated

"Well he better hurry" Monford stated "Or else we'll all die here."

Inside Anvil, the Resistance members grabbed whatever they could get before running to the docks to get on the ships. Several ships had already left the harbour so the Resistance members had to scrabble on the remaining ships. Giovanni along with Carmalo Truiand had stayed behind in Anvil to make sure that everyone got out but they were running out of time. Eventually, the Tyrell army managed to finish building their catapults are they started launching rocks at Anvil. One of the main lookout towers quickly got hit and collapsed under its weight. Dion along with Arya had also stayed behind to help Caelia and Matthias evacuate the wounded from the infirmary. Langley and Burd had already boarded the Hammer and were waiting for the orders to leave.

Arya and Dion were now on the main wall above the gate as they watched the Tyrell army fire rocks and flaming pots at Anvil's walls "These old walls won't last long against those" Dion stated and he was right as another tower collapsed after being hit by rocks.

Matthias and Caelia joined them "We've got to clear this wall now" Matthias stated "This wall could collapse at any second."

Dion nodded and agreed and then the four of them started to climb down the stairs but then they heard a rumbling and the four of them looked to see one of the towers starting to creak and then the walls of the tower began to crumble. The tower was right next to where they were standing.

"Run!" Dion shouted "That tower's falling" the fall of them then ran for it and the tower broke apart and collapsed. They ran as stones from the wall began falling around them as it got darker as the shadow of the tower appeared as the tower was falling on top of them. Then there was light as they managed to get out of the way. But then Matthias looked back in horror when he saw that Caelia wasn't with them. Matthias gasped when he saw his sister trip and went to run back to get her but Dion held him back.

"No let me go!" he yelled "I have to get to her!"

Caelia smiled "It will be fine brother" she stated "I'll get to see mother and Andreas again" she stated and she closed her eyes as a tear fell. Then the tower fell on top of her, crushing her instantly.

"No!" Matthias yelled in horror.

Giovanni and Camarlo arrived and they had seen what happened. But then they watched as the front wall collapsed "We have to go now" Giovanni stated "They've breached the wall, those soldiers will be pouring in here."

They all then ran as fast as their legs could run and soon they made it to the harbour and they got on the King Robert's Hammer as the White Hart and Wildwind had already started sailing away. But the Seaflower had been hit by fire from the Tyrell catapults and was burning. A big ship like the Hammer took time to get ready to sail away and Giovanni looked back to see the Tyrell army approaching. Then he saw some barrels of pitch that the Resistance had stolen from supplies. Giovanni knew what needed to be done and he turned to Camarlo "Camarlo, you're in command now" he said

"Commander?" Camarlo questioned

"You must get this ship going" Giovanni stated "I'll hold them off"

"Gio, you can't!" Arya gasped

"I must!" Giovanni hissed "I'll hold them off as long as I can while you get this ship going."

Dion sighed and looked at him "Just make sure you take as many out as you can" he said.

Giovanni smiled as he drew his sword and then went down the gangplank and onto the harbour. He then swung his sword and cut down several Tyrell soldiers that charged at him. Giovanni soon made it to the pitch where more guards started charging at him, he managed to push them back and kill a few more but then he was struck in the shoulder with an arrow which he pulled out. Then he avoided a slash which nearly took his head off but then he was stabbed in the chest and fell to the ground. He was able to take a torch from a wall that he leaned on. He then laughed as the Tyrell soldiers surrounded him. "If I'm going down then I'm taking you lot with me" he then threw the torch on the pitch after he managed to break the barrels open. The Tyrell soldiers watched in shock and then Giovanni smiled as the explosion engulfed him and the Tyrell soldiers.

Back on the Hammer, the Resistance watched as the explosion on the docks gave them time to escape. Camarlo sighed "It's been an honour Giovanni" he said to himself.

Arya went to the bow and looked out toward the enemy fleet. They were surrounded on both sides but Arya knew that they had to find a way to escape. Her sister Sansa was safely below deck and was safe from the battle. This ship was strong but they had to do something to escape before they were destroyed.

Beyond the Wall:

Mance Rayder had taken Jon, Ollrod and Serena as he went with some of his Wildlings. Mance started explaining to Jon about how he unite all of the Wildlings together. "It took me a while and many people tried to kill me but soon I unite all of the Free Folk together. Of course the Crows see that as a threat."

"You were one of them weren't you at one time?" Jon questioned

"I was" Mance stated "I was raised as a child by the Night's Watch but they did kill my people when then took me. I was born among the Free Folk. When I was a member of the Crows, I once went to Winterfell where I met you and your brother. You father was a good man, no one could question it. I'm sure you've heard the story about why I left the crows."

"I remember people saying that you started to disagree with the vows" Jon stated

"That's true" Mance stated "I was north of the wall when I was attacked by a Shadowcat. A Free Folk girl found me and stitched me up. She could have just left me but she didn't. She also mended my cloak after it had been torn. But when I got back to the Shadow Tower, they made me get rid of that mended cloak and they acted like all the Wildlings were wild savages. Well I knew that I was fighting for the wrong side so I needed to do something."

"So you left the Night's Watch after that" Serena stated

"I did" Mance claimed "I then started to unite the clans under my lead. It wasn't easy, I have over 90 clans and half of them want to kill the other half. The Thenns hate the Hornfoots, the Hornfoots hate the Ice River Clans, and everyone hates the Cave People. I killed three rivals while trying to unite the tribes, and I got the help of those Orc people and Dark Elves but they follow their own leaders. But do you know how I was able to unite all the tribes together without them trying to kill each other?"

Jon looked at him "I take it has to do with the White Walkers?" Jon stated

"It did" Mance stated "I told them that they were all going to die. The Dark Elves and Orcs know that the Walkers are coming so they decided to follow me down south. Now there's someone who I want you to meet"

Mance then took him up a hill where Tormund and Ygritte were waiting for them and there was a man sat on a rock. The man was wearing Wildling clothing and had long brown hair and a thick beard which was messy. But Jon noticed that the man's eyes were white and he wasn't moving at all.

"What's wrong with him?" Jon asked

"He's a Warg" Tormund stated

"A Warg?" Ollrod gasped "I thought they were just stories."

"Every story has some truth in it" Serena stated

Ygritte laughed "Never seen a Warg before?" she stated

Jon nodded "I've only heard of them through stories that Old Nan used to tell me. The Kings of Winter defeated the Warg King during their unification of the North and took Sea Dragon Point during the Age of Heroes."

Mance looked up and Jon followed his eyesight to where an eagle was flying "His mind can enter that eagle and control it and see through it's eyes. He's scouting out for us, this is how the Free Folk are able to ambush the Crows. And he's not the only Warg here, Borroq can enter the mind of his large Boar, Brair has her Shadowcat and Varamyr has his three wolves, a snow bear, a Shadowcat and an Eagle." Then Mance shook the Warg that was in front of him "oi, Orell, wake up" The man now known as Orell then opened his eyes "Where were you this time?"

"The Fist of the First men" Orell answered

"And what did you see?" Tormund asked

"Crows and Night Hunters preparing to leave" Orell replied

Serena looked at Jon "It seems that we've taken too long, Isran and Mormont are preparing to leave, and they only have a limited amount of supplies"

Orell then added "But I saw them as well" he added making everyone look at him "The Dead, they're moving in on the Fist"

Jon then looked at Serena in horror, "Isran and the others are all in danger!" he gasped "If the Wight army attacks them they'll stand no change, they can't fight all of them. I have to get back."

"Wait" Tormund groaned "Even if you make it back to the Fist you'll never get back there in time. Besides one more Night Hunter can't help them"

"I can't just leave them to die" Jon stated

"No but we can save them" Mance stated which made Orell and other Wildlings look at him.

"My King, you can't be serious" The Lord of Bone grunted "After everything those crows have done to us, you still want to save them."

"Not really but Jon had a point earlier" Mance stated "Even if we make it South, the armies of Westeros would just attack us and force us back North of the Wall. We need to earn our place. If we can get Lord Commander Mormont's approval then we may be allowed south and we can settle in the Gift."

Tormund sighed "I don't like Crows but you make a good point, so I will stand by you."

Not all of the Wildlings looked happy about Mance's plans and some looked like they were ready to desert. But then one of the Giants stood up and gave a nod to Mance which showed that he agreed with Mance. This convinced the other Wildlings to go along with Mance's plan. "Let's just hope we can get back to the Fist in time" Jon stated

The Vale:

Mychel Redfort has brought some of his men with him so that they could take the secret passage into the Eyrie. They started at the bottom of the Giant's Lance on the western side where they could see Alyssa's Tears, the famous waterfall where the water turns to mist before it reaches the bottom, named after Alyssa Arryn who didn't shed a tear when she saw her family butchered in front of her and was cursed that she would never rest until her tears reached the Vale.

Mychel had brought Ser Harrold Hardyng, Mya Stone, Symond Templeton, Morton Waynwood and Andar Royce. Symond being the eldest and most experienced would be leading them through the tunnels. The Eyrie was said to be impregnable but these tunnels had been built thousands of years ago, back when the Andals were first arriving in Westeros. They were meant to be used as an escape route for the Kings of the Mountain and Vale and later lords of the Vale but they had never been used in thousands of years and so the tunnels were left alone which meant that they have been neglected. Some of the tunnels had collapsed over time so Symond had to find another way around.

"Remember the plan" Symond said to the others "We must open the gates so that Bronze Yohn's army can get into the Eyrie. No one has ever been able to breach the walls of the Eyrie."

"Do we know what we'll find in the castle?" Mychel asked

Symond shook his head "I only know that Baelish along with Lyn Corbray are in the Eyrie. Ser Eustace Hunter is also with them, he decided to side with Baelish because he wanted to be the new lord of the Longbow Hall."

"So we don't know what we'll be facing" Harrold sighed

"We'll wait until night" Symond stated "Many of the guards will be resting and we can use the darkness to cover our tracks and open the gates."

"Let's just hope this plan works" Mychel sighed "Because if it doesn't then this battle will be over before it's even started."

Inside the Eyrie:

Petyr Baelish sat on the throne of the Eyrie with Lysa Arryn sat next to him as she breastfed her son Robin again. After Lyn had rescued Lysa from Cloud Ruler Temple, he had brought her back to Gulltown where Baelish had been able to get into the city without anyone noticing. Then they had staged their coup in the Eyrie where Vardis Egen had turned against Lord Yohn Royce and forced the Lord of Runestone to flee. Baelish had returned and he and Lysa married in a secret ceremony which made Baelish the Lord Protector of the Vale. But many of the Lords refused to accept Baelish's new position. Many lords of the Vale remembered that Baelish had been responsible for the crown's debts and been declared a traitor because of it. House Baelish wasn't even very powerful which was another reason why lords refused to accept Baelish's position. But Baelish still had some allies, Lyn Corbray along with his brother Lyonel had sided with him. Houses Grafton and Belmore had sided with him but now they had been captured since the fall of Gulltown and Strongsong. Houses Lynderly and Melcolm had also sided with him as well.

Lyn Corbray stood in front of the throne as he gave Baelish the news "With Strongsong fallen, Yohn Royce has begun his march up the Mountains."

Lysa laughed "No matter what he does, the Eyrie is impregnable"

"Bronze Yohn knows this" Baelish stated "He is no fool but he will find a way. I want all of our efforts doubled to hold the gate. We must hold out until the Lannisters win this war and then give us the assistance."

"As you command Lord Baelish" Lyn stated and then he walked away.

Lysa then looked at Baelish as she finished feeding Robin "So what will we do now my love" Lysa smiled as he looked at Baelish "We still have traitors to my sweetrobin"

"They will be dealt with" Baelish stated "But for now we must plan, once the traitors have been dealt with, I can help us gain more power. One day I will be King and you will be my Queen."

"And my son would be a prince" Lysa giggled at the idea "He would rule over the Seven Kingdoms."

"That's what I plan to do" Baelish smiled as he gave Lysa a big kiss on her lips though he was imagining that it was Lysa's sister Catelyn that he was kissing.

Rivenspire: Northpoint:

Daenerys along with Jorah, Rakharo and Farengar had managed to sneak into the city of Northpoint using a tunnel located at the city's lighthouse. They had used Daenerys' dragons to create a distraction so they were able to get into the city undetected. Skordo the Knife had joined them and they had made a headquarters at one of the manor Houses of the city. Jorah and Damien had gone out to recruit allies and had managed to rescue some of the people but many of them had fallen under the same spell that they had seen at the Tamrith Camp where people became mindless people who wanted flesh and blood. They had also run into several large statues called Gargoyles that were cursed to attack. One of them had injured Damien and he was now resting to heal. Janeve had also been injured by the Bloodfiends and was also out of the fight.

Countess Tamrith and Baron Dorell had arrived and they had nearly started arguing again until Skordo reminded them that they had bigger problems to worry about. Eselde had then gone up to look after Damien while Daenerys stayed with Alard They had also found Alard's old friend Blademaster Qariar who had rescued some of the people and had joined the fight. Alard then looked at Daenerys "I had hoped that my son would be hiding in his office but he is nowhere to be found, Qariar said that he wanted to stay at the manor. But I did find his journal"

Skordo was also with them "Well, what does it say?" he asked

"Ellic and I haven't always see eye to eye" Alard claimed "And he makes no effort to hide his feelings towards me in his journal. But he does mention the arrival of Lady Lleraya Montclair."

"Wait, isn't she Wylon's daughter?" Daenerys questioned "Why would Ellic allow her into the city if she's the enemy?"

Alard sighed "This is where the trouble starts" he confessed "Ellic is still inside the castle with Lleraya ruling"

"Wait, you mean to tell us that Lleraya has been here all along and your son did nothing about it!" Skordo growled

Alard sighed "According to Ellic's journal, he's infatuated with the woman. Ellic was always a lady's man. He wasn't even bothered when she started turning people into Bloodfiends."

Skordo slammed his hand into a table "More Bloodfiends, just give me something to hit already" he complained "But it does sound like your son has betrayed Northpoint."

Verandis was also at the House "Lleraya has also been cursed by the artefact, she's no longer the sweet girl that I remember."

"But is there a chance that she can be reasoned with?" Daenerys asked

Verandis shook his head "I'm afraid not" he confirmed "She has been cursed and now obeys the orders of her father. As much as I hate it, I don't see any other way to end this but to kill Lleraya."

"And then Ellic will have a lot to answer for" Skordo added "That's of he's still alive."

"Well we'll just have to wait and see" Alard stated

Daenerys then heard the groans of Damien from upstairs "I'm just going to check on Damien" she stated and then she went up to the next floor of the manor where Damien was lying on a bed with Countess Tamrith and Farengar next to him. Janeve was lying on another bed nearby.

Farengar looked at Daenerys when she entered "Damien and Janeve aren't going anywhere soon" he said "They'll have to rest while they recover but they should be fine."

"Well some of us are about to attack the castle" Daenerys stated "We have to eliminate Lleraya and free Northpoint"

"Tamrith and her healers will take care of Damien" Farengar stated "I'll be of more use with you at the castle"

"And me" Jorah stated as he and Rakharo stood up "We'll find by your side"

Daenerys smiled at her companions "Then get ready" she stated "Because we're about to attack the castle"

Deepwood Motte: The North:

After the defeat of the Ironborn, Theon Greyjoy and the members of the First Legion stayed to help make sure that no Ironborn raiders remained in the North. Help from the Northern Mountain Clans had arrived to help maintain a hold on the Keep. Sybelle Glover and her children had also been found and restored to maintaining the castle. But now Theon was going down to the cells to meet with his sister.

After defeating Yara, Theon had her imprisoned in the cells of Deepwood Motte along with her two top men which would be kept as hostages. Theon planned to have them sent to Winterfell and imprisoned in the dungeons there. Theon eventually found her sister inside her cell "It hurts that we have to meet like this sister" he stated

"Well I don't feel much at all" Yara snorted "Only betrayal by my own kin"

"Kin?" Theon questioned "We may have been related by blood but I don't feel like I'm your brother. Even when I first set foot back on the Iron Islands I was treated like an outsider. I knew that no matter what I did when father revealed his plans I would be a traitor to someone. So I decided that I would stay loyal to the family that treated me like a son."

"So you stayed with those Greenlanders" Yara questioned "Your real family"

"I was raised like I was a son to Eddard Stark" Theon answered "And I've read books in the Winterfell library and I've learnt everything about the Ironborn. We may be able to raid lands but every time it only leads to disaster. We're raiders, not invaders, all we do is pillage and rape wherever we go and the lord of the mainland won't stand for it. Father may not survive an invasion of the Iron Islands this time, he's already been defeated before and was spared but he may not be so lucky this time. But you are still my sister which is why I'm going to make sure that you survive."

"Why?" Yara questioned

"Someone has to rule the Iron Islands after father" Theon stated "They'll never accept me but they might accept you. If you help then I can make sure that you become the new Lady of the Iron Islands and maybe we can change the Ironborn's ways. There are other ways we can raid without angering the lords of Westeros."

"And what of our father?" Yara questioned

"I have sent him a message" Theon stated "I'm giving him a chance to stop this madness and maybe Martin might spare his life though I can't promise that he'll remain Lord of Pyke."

Iron Islands: Pyke:

Lord Balon Greyjoy along with his brother Victorian stood in the halls of Pyke. Balon had not been very happy when Victorian returned after failing to capture Moat Cailin. Victorian had defended himself claiming that he had been attacked along the Fever River and over half his fleet had been destroyed. But Lord Dunstan Drumm had also been killed and he was one of the best raiders among the Ironborn.

Victorian read the message that they had just received "The Northerners have retaken Deepwood Motte" Victorian read

"And the Ironborn that were there?" Balon asked

"Dead or captured" Victorian replied "Yara has been imprisoned along with Tristifer Bootly"

"What is dead may never die" Balon stated

"What is dead may never die" Victorian replied "But they did and that was our last stronghold on the mainland"

"Then we will take more" Balon replied

"With what?" Victorian questioned "Over half of our fleet has been destroyed and this war is coming to an end. Do you know who sent this message? It was Theon"

"So Theon has decided to betray his people and join the enemy" Balon snorted "I have no son"

"Theon was your last surviving son" Victorian hissed "He made his choice and tried to warn us from doing what you did. And he was right, we may be able to fight on the sea but we'll never hold lands on the mainland."

"Do you remember what our father tried to do?" Balon asked "He went against the ideas of the Ironborn and tried to be more like the Greenlanders. He shamed our people and I promised that I would restore the glory of the old days"

"But those days are long gone" Victorian groaned "In those days we commanded the coast along the Sunset Sea. We held lands from the Arbour to Bear Island. But then they fought back and pushed us away. Every time we push the Mainland too far, they attack us. The last time that happened, I watched as Stannis Baratheon destroyed my fleet at Bear Island. Face it brother, we're not meant for invading lands, we're better off just attacking ships"

"Well I am the King of the Iron Islands!" Balon growled "And I'm the one who will make the decisions"

"Will your title help you when Martin decides to attack us?" Victorian questioned "We are weak right now, we've lost half our fleet and many of our greatest raiders are dead. If the Baratheon's attack us then we may not survive"

"Then we'll fight until the end" Balon stated "But I will not make peace with those Greenlanders"

Victorian sighed "So be it, and may you face the consequences of your actions" he said and then he left the Great Hall.

Rivenspire: Northpoint:

Daenerys along with Jorah, Farengar and Verandis had entered Dorell Manor, the home of House Dorell and they were shocked at what they saw. It was like some kind of party with noble lords sat around a table drunk and laughing as they ignored several dead bodies. The saw a young man in his twenties sat on a throne laughing with a goblet of wine in his hand. "Ah all the nobles have gathered" he said to himself "What a wonderful party"

Verandis sighed "I do not even know if Ellic is under a spell" he stated "He was always like this when his father wasn't around."

Then there was a flash of light and a woman with long sinlky black hair and pale skin looked at them and sneered "Well, you were not what I was expecting but that makes this even more exciting"

"Lleraya" Verandis gasped "What has happened to you"

Lady Lleraya Montclair laughed "Oh Verandis, I have been shown the truth about this power. One day my father will be King and with the help of the Dawn, we will conquer this world"

"Lleraya listen to me!" Verandis begged "This power has corrupted you, you must fight back, take control."

Lleraya laughed "Oh but I do not remember my old life and I don't want to" she stated "This is the new me and I will use my new gifts to conquer this world. This city is just the start and it was child's play this"

"Just how did you conquer this city?" Farengar asked

Lleraya sneered "You must be this Secret Fire person that my father's friend warned us about. Well if you must know, all I had to do was fool Ellic into thinking that I wanted to make peace. Then when I seduced him, I placed my spell on him and now he obeys my orders. Many of the soldiers followed him because he's Baron Dorell's son. Of course once I began turning the people into Bloodfiends, they fought back." Then she looked at Jorah "And you must be the one who took care of my father's pet Argonian. Well done for that, well done. I was getting board with Ellic anyway, but it seems that I have new entertainment"

"We're not entertainment" Daenerys hissed "We're here to put a stop to what you are doing to these people."

Lleraya laughed "If that's how you feel then I guess it's time for me to kill you. I haven't had a good fight in a long time and I've learnt some new magic. Let's gives these spells a test." Lleraya then pulled out a staff and swung it as black magic surrounded her body, then a shockwave blew Daenerys and her group back. Then landed a small distance as the black magic surrounded the floor around Lleraya, then there was a puff of smoke as walking skeletons emerged from the ground along with a large abomination made from bones.

"Great, a bone colossus!" Verandis groaned "Take care of the other skeletons first, I'll handle the colossus"

Verandis and Farengar drew out their staffs while Jorah drew his sword. Daenerys had been training and she too got her sword out though she wasn't as skilled as Jorah so Jorah did most of the fighting. Jorah managed to slice through the skeletons by cutting them in two while Farengar sent fire magic to burn the skeletons. Verandis handled the Colossus which was difficult as it kept summoning more skeletons which could explode. But then most of the Skeletons were destroyed and Farengar went to handle the Colossus with Verandis leaving Jorah and Daenerys to deal with Lleraya.

Lleraya narrowed her eyes and turned her staff into a large sword "If you want something done then do it yourself" she stated and then she and Jorah charged at each other and began striking each other with their swords. "I will kill you and your leader and I'll take her dragons and give them to my father."

"No one touches my dragons!" Daenerys growled as she too joined the fight but was quickly thrown back by Lleraya. Then Jorah got angered and attacked recklessly resulting in his arm getting slashed by Lleraya and then he was thrown back by a spell.

Lleraya then walked towards Daenerys and raised her sword above her "Say goodbye Dragon Queen" she stated but those were her last words because as soon as she finished them, a sword was driven through her back into came out of her chest. Lleraya gasped as Verandis closed his eyes and sunk his sword deeper. He and Farengar had just managed to kill the Colossus and Verandis had rushed to stop Lleraya

Lleraya's sword fell from her hands and then she fell to her knees as Verandis withdrew his sword and Lleraya few onto her face "I'm sorry Lleraya, I never wanted it to end like this" he sighed

Daenerys looked at him "Are you alright?" she asked

Verandis sighed "I hoped that I could reason with her and try to help her break free from the curse. But the power was too strong for her, I guess this is a mercy for her as now she'll no longer but suffering that curse anymore."

Daenerys looked around the room as Farengar helped Jorah up and saw the other nobles running their eyes. Ellic rubbed his eyes and then looked at Verandis "Oh my head" he said "Verandis, what are you doing here, why are all these people dead?"

"Ellic, you've been under a spell cast by Lady Lleraya Montclair." Verandis stated "She's been using you to rule over Northpoint. She's dead now."

"Lleraya?" Ellic questioned "The last thing I remember was her coming here claiming she wanted to help make peace. But then I couldn't remember anything else. Is the rest of Northpoint safe, are the people okay."

"Many people have died" Verandis stated "But the city is safe now. Your father is waiting outside, you better go and see him."

"Yeah I better" Ellic stated "I've got a lot of explaining to do."

Westerlands: Fort Fellhammer:

"You can't do this to me!" came the growl of Lord Regenard Estren as he was grabbed by a few of Daven's soldiers and taken away "I am a noble Lord of the Westerlands and loyal to House Lannister"

"But you conspired against Lord Tywin with Reginald Lannister" Daven growled "That makes you a traitor, take him away"

Regenard was then dragged away to a cell and Daven looked at Robb Stark. After Robb had given him the message, Daven had ordered the arrest of Regenard and Philip Foote but Foote had managed to flee with some of Daven's forces who were loyal to Reginald. About a Third of Daven's men turned out to be working for Reginald and they had been taken to Lannisport to defend the city against an attack.

"Well that went better than I thought it was going to go" Robb stated

"I am a loyal man to the Lannisters but I won't dare go against Tywin Lannisters orders" Daven stated "The people in the Westerlands fear and respect him. My father used to tell me stories of what it was like before Tywin was around. Tywin's father Tytos was a weak ruler and was often pushed around by his bannermen. People mocked him and outlaws were all over the Westerlands. People claimed that the Lion was no longer an animal to be feared. Then Tywin returned from the War of the Ninepenny Kings and he changed everything, he wanted to restore the honour of House Lannister and had his men take out the outlaws and ordered the repayment of debts. When Waldron Tarbeck was imprisoned, Lady Ellyn kidnapped three Lannisters, my father was one of them and he described that was thrown into a dungeon at Tarbeck Hall and left there. He was happy to be released but he wanted payback for what they had done to him. He was happy when Tywin destroyed both Houses Reyne and Tarbeck."

"Well now we have to plan our attack on Lannistport" Robb stated "Now most of the Westerlands are secure but this isn't over until we've defeated Reginald."

"Reginald will be at Lannisport" Daven stated "Tywin's sister, Lady Genna, is at Casterly Rock and will not allow Reginald into the castle, she doesn't trust him and will bar the gates of the castle"

"That makes this much easier" Robb stated "Casterly Rock has never been captured by force so we'll just have to capture Lannisport and capture Reginald and then he'll be judged for his crimes"

"And we have more than enough men to do it" Daven stated "With your men along with mine and the Third Legion, we can capture the city."

"Then we should go plan our attack" Robb stated and then he and Daven went to Fort Fellhammer to plan their attack.

Anvil:

The fight against Travis' fleet was going poorly for the Resistance. No matter what they did, they just couldn't break through the blockade and these were losing more and more ships. Two more Velaryon ships, the Bold Laughter and Cat had been sunk with the Cat's survivors including the survivors they picked up from the Courageous, ended up being saved by the King Robert's Hammer. Several of the ships that Stannis Baratheon had lent to the Resistance had also been sunk as well including the Swift Sword and Sea Demon.

Itius watched from the Swordfish as catapults from the enemy ships launched wildfire and pitch at them and he watched as the White Hart was hit by the Wildfire and then sank.

"Charge the blockade!" Itius ordered "We have to get out of here!"

The King Robert's Hammer fired its Scorpion crossbows and used its catapults to attack the enemy ships and were able to destroy some of the enemy fleet but were unable to break the blockade.

Arya was below deck making sure that the survivors of the Ships they saved were okay. Arya's sister Sansa was there as well and was scared

"We're not going to survive this are we?" Sansa questioned

"We'll make it Sansa" Arya stated "We just have to believe we can. I'm going up on deck" Arya then went up onto the deck of the ship and watched around in horror as she saw the Resistance ships burning. She remembered when she had been attacked in the Narrow Sea but this was even worse. She then looked at the enemy fleet and then Sansa came up on deck.

"Arya…" Sansa started

"Yeah I can see it too" Arya groaned "We're blocked in"

Back on the Swordfish, Itius watched as another Resistance ship exploded after being hit by wildfire and exploded. Itius sighed "And now they've destroyed the Ramshead as well."

With the Lannister fleet, Travis stood on the deck on the Justice and smiled as his plan worked to destroy the Resistance. Most of the Resistance ships had been destroyed and they had nowhere to go. Travis could have pulled closer but Travis was patient and wouldn't take risks like that so he turned to his men "Tell all our ships to hold their position, the Resistance isn't going anywhere. They'll have to come to us. Now open fired again."

The catapults were loaded and then fired again. Pots of Wildfire flew from the Lannister ships which struck the Devotion, Lord Guncer Sunglass' personal ship. Guncer looked around in horror as green fire spread around his ship. "No, no!" he yelled but then there was a bigger explosion as more wildfire pots struck the Devotion and then the Devotion exploded in a fireball and was left nothing more than a mess of timber and ropes.

Itius Hayn stood on the Swordfish and watched as the Devotion exploded, he knew that the Resistance had to do something otherwise every member of the Resistance would be killed. Then the King Robert's Hammer pulled alongside the Swordfish and Itius went to the side and saw Carmalo looking at him "Commander what are we going to do?" he asked "We don't have much time and soon they'll destroy our last ship. The King Robert's Hammer may be strong but it will never survive against that Wildfire."

"Wildfire" Itius said to himself and then he had an idea but he knew that it would be the ultimate sacrifice "Carmalo listen to me, signal all the ships and make them prepared to sail North to Duskendale"

"But commander, we can't get through the blockade" Carmalo stated

"You will when I blow a hole in the blockade" Itius stated. All of the crew then looked at him as Itius addressed them "All hands, set the bow on fire then abandon ship and get onto the Hammer." The crew then realised what Itius was about to do and then obeyed his orders. The set the ship's bow on fire and then then went onto the Gangplank and onto the King Robert's Hammer. Though several of the crew decided to stay on the Swordfish with Itius. Then when the ship was ready, Itius had full sails deployed and then the ship sailed forward towards the blockade.

On the King Robert's Hammer, Sansa looked at what was going on and looked at Arya "Arya, why is the Resistance commander abandoned his ship and then sailing it towards the Blockade?" she asked

Arya widened her eyes and looked at Dion who was now on the deck "Is commander Itius about to do what I think he's about to do?" she asked

Dion sighed "I think he is" he stated "I myself don't see any other way to get out of this."

At the blockade, the ships all saw the Resistance flagship approaching them. The crew on the Lannister ships all cheered in excitement as now they would have their chance to destroy the Flagship of the Resistance. The Queen Cersei was ready and loaded their catapults and then got ready to fire at the ship.

Itius smiled as he stood at the wheel of the Swordfish and watched as the Blockade got closer, he knew that the Lannisters had Wildfire on their ship, a great substance for burning your enemies but it was dangerous for them as well and now Itius was going to destroy them. Itius saw that the Queen Cersei was the closest ship and was in a good position. He narrowed his eyes and then he watched as the Queen Cersei began to fire their catapults. Then he spun the wheel fast and the Swordfish turned fast and then went towards the Queen Cersei.

The crew of the Queen Cersei watched in horror as the Swordfish began speeding towards them, they had pots of wildfire on their deck and in the hold. The bow of the Swordfish was on fire and that could cause the Wildfire to explode. The captain of the Queen Cersei ordered the ship to turn fast to avoid the incoming ship but it was too late. The Swordfish struck the side of the Queen Cersei and created a big hold in the ship's side. Some of the Wildfire pots then fell and broke open and started fires inside the ship. Then the fires on board the Swordfish spread onto the decks of the Queen Cersei. Itius Hayn watched as the Queen Cersei then he closed his eyes as there was big explosion from the Wildfire which quickly engulfed him and then both ships exploded.

On the Justice, Travis watched in shock as the Queen Cersei exploded as the Swordfish struck the ships, the explosion sent as shockwave which shook the Justice and caused the blockade ships to drift apart. Several other Lannister ships including the Godsgrace, the Kingslander and the Lady of Silk were destroyed in the explosion.

Carmalo watched the explosion and said a quick prayer for Itius "Rest with the Gods Commander" he said and then he turned to his crew "All ships, go now, break past the blockade now while we still can."

The remaining Resistance ships then made full sail and then they were able to break through the gap in the blockade that the explosion had done, there was also a dark cloud which prevented them from being seen by the blockade ships. It was a close one but by the time the Blockade had been able to get their ships under control again and the cloud had cleared, the Resistance were already ahead now and sailing into the distance.

On the Justice, Travis was quite cross now as now his plan had failed and he had been unable to destroy the Resistance completely. But even so, the Resistance was badly weakened and they would be unable to fight on now.

"Admiral, what do we do now?" one of his men asked

"We sail back to King's Landing" Travis ordered "The Resistance is mostly destroyed now, there's no point in chasing after them now. They'll be heading for Duskendale since that's the only place left for them to go. But now I must report my victory to the King."

Harrenhal: Lannister army:

The Lannister army began leaving Harrenhal not long after Martin had arrived. The catapults had damaged the old ruined walls of the castle so the Lannister army did not have much they could defend from. Tywin Lannister was now ready to withdraw to King's Landing and see for himself just how badly Joffrey was running the Kingdoms. He had heard stories but now he had to see for himself. But first there was something he had to do first before he made it to King's Landing "Head to Maidenpool" he ordered his men "Then we'll be going to King's Landing o defend the capital" then Tywin Lannister's army began to march toward the town of Maidenpool. But Tywin heard a screech and turned back to see five small dragons flying around Harrenhal. Tywin looked shocked at them "So the rumours were true" he said to himself "You really did hatch dragons" then he had a smirk as now he had his excuse to say why he reatreated from Harrenhal.

Inside Harrenhal:

Martin and his army walked through the courtyard of Harrenhal. Built by King Harren the Black, the King of the Isles and Rivers believed that it would take years for an army to capture the castle. For an army it may would have taken years, but Aegon had dragons which burnt the castle with Harren and his children inside. Ever since then, six families had ruled Harrenhal and all of those families have died out. But even though the castle was half ruined, it still had a strategic location near the God's Eye Lake so they wouldn't be able to travel through into the Crownlands until they captured Harrenhal. Now with Harrenhal captured, Martin could now march towards the King's Landing. He turned to General Tullius and Randyl Tarly "Order the men to rest" he said "We have a long march ahead of us and the men have earned a break." Martin then went to a window where he saw his five dragons flying around the walls. His dragons seemed to be growing fast and they could barely fit in their cage. They were all helping themselves to the food found in one of the storehouses. Septim was feeding with Starlight while Cynder and Frostbite were keeping to themselves. Fui on the other hand was growling at anyone who came near her. Of all the dragons, Fui was the most dangerous even to Martin, this did worry Martin because he knew that dragons could become dangerous if they weren't trained properly but Martin hoped he could find a way to tame Fui down otherwise she would cause a lot of trouble in the future.

Rivenspire: Northpoint:

Daenerys and her group had exited Dorell Manor and saw Baron Alard Dorell along with his men stood outside waiting. Baron Dorell did not look happy at all.

"In the name of High King Emeric of Wayrest, I Baron Alard Dorell herby order the arrest of Lord Ellic Dorell" he said

"Father please" Ellic begged "I did not mean for any of this to happen"

"Does that change anything?" Alard questioned "People died because of you, turned into those horrible Bloodfiends and given a fate worse than death. And it was all because you couldn't ignore a pretty face"

"But she claimed she wanted to help" Ellic stated "She did not look like she wanted to fight"

"And that is one of the enemy's tricks!" Alard hissed "She tricked you and now the people of Northpoint have paid the price. Well there is only one thing I can do" He turned to his guards "Guards, take Ellic away"

The Guards then restrained Ellic "Father" he sighed "I'm sorry"

But Baron Alard just turned around "You are dead to me Ellic, dead to me"

Daenerys was shocked that Baron Alard had just disowned his son like that and now had him arrested. She then watched as the guards tied Ellic up and led him away, Daenerys then quickly ran up to Alard "Don't you think that this is a bit harsh?" she questioned "He was under Lleraya's spell"

"He may have been under a spell" Alard stated "But even so, he shouldn't have let her into the city in the first place. The people here are going to demand justice which means I have no choice." He then sighed "He may be my son but I can't give exceptions out, not even to my own kin, High King Emeric will judge him but he will no longer be my heir anymore since I can't trust him and neither will the people."

"So what do we do now?" Farengar asked

"Well we need to rest first" Countess Tamrith stated as she walked forward to join them "Damien and my sister still need to recover but they'll be fine. Then we'll be heading West towards to the Shrouded pass, it's time we end this war."

North of the Wall:

Agmaer along with Edd and Grenn stood at the bottom of the hill which led to the Fist of the First Men collecting animal dung to use as fuel for fire. Grenn groaned as he found a bit in the snow "I thought we came north to fight Wildlings" he groaned "Is this Goat" he handed the dung to Edd

"It's moose" Edd answered as he put the dung in his bag with the rest of the dung.

"People shouldn't live in a place where you need to burn shit to keep warm" Grenn groaned

"Well if you see a tree then tell me" Edd replied

Agmaer looked at the two of them "Do really think Jon's dead?" he asked

"Well Jon went out and hasn't returned" Edd stated "He could be dead but the Halfhand has survived beyond the Wall on his own. Sometimes Rangers from the Watch have returned after being declared dead."

"Well I hope Jon's okay, Isran says that we really need him" Agmaer stated

"We all need a leader" Grenn stated "I may not like Throne but Mormont is a good leader."

The three were distracted when they heard the sound of a horn being blasted. Agmaer smiled in response as he knew what it meant "It's Jon and the Halfhand" he smiled "They're back."

But then his smile fell when a second blast of the horn was heard. Grenn dropped his spade and drew his sword from his belt "Two blast means Wildlings"

"Well you're not fighting them alone." Edd stated "Come on" Edd then began walking with Grenn and Agmaer following him. But they stopped when the heard the sound of the horn blasting a third time.

"Three Blasts?" Grenn gasped in shock and they remembered what Agmaer had read about when he said that the Horn was only blasted three times at the sight of White Walkers.

"Run!" Edd yelled and then he and Grenn began running back up the hill to find the Night's Watch and Dawnguard. Agmaer stayed behind and gasped when he saw glowing blue eyes in the distance. He knew what he had to do, he ran to try and catch up with the others.

In the distance, several white Walkers on undead Horses with their wights following them approached the Hill. Then the lead one shoved his hand forward and a hissing noise emerged from his mouth and then the Wights began to march forward towards the Fist where the Dawnguard and Night's Watch were waiting.

On the fist, Isran along with his 2nd in command Celann watched as the army of the dead approached "And now it begins" he said as he drew his axe and all of the Dawnguard got their weapons ready while the Night's Watch were panicking but now it seemed that the White Walkers were real and the world had to be warned.

Chapter end:

Notes: Well another chapter finished and this will be the final chapter I complete on any of my stories until after I finish my exams which start in a few weeks. But I've brought the White Walkers forward a bit though they won't play a big role in the story for a while though they will be important in the next chapter. And Anvil was the big battle I was talking about, that battle has inspiration from Star Wars Rebels but I planned it out for a while. Martin's dragons also grow faster in this story so the dragons will be bigger than in Game of Thrones Season two. This was my longest chapter yet with over 18,000 words but the next chapter will take a while because I'm not starting it until after my exams, and I plan to start the next story in my Dragon-X series when my exams are over. But until them enjoy this story and season two will be over in three chapters after this.
