Chapter 24

In King's landing, King Robert Baratheon was in a meeting with his council. On his council were the Hand of the King Jon Arryn, Grand Maester Pycelle, Master of coin Lord Petyr Baelish, Master of Laws Renly Baratheon, Master of ships Stannis Baratheon Master of Whispers Lord Varys.

But in this meeting were only Grand Maester Pycelle, Lord Petyr Baelish, and Lord Varys.

"Your Grace, we have a matter that we thought should be brought to your attention" Said Lord Varys

"It better be important to interrupt me while I'm so busy" Said King Robert, but really he wasn't busy with work rather it was women

"Yes your grace as you may know a couple of months ago a Kingdom was created in Essos with island city Lorath as it's capital and in these Months that the Kingdom has been created I have heard whispers of something that should be brought to your attention" Said Lord Varys as he waited for Roberts response

"Well then out with it" Said Robert since he was bored of this meeting already

"This King has white hair similar to a Targaryan" Said Lord Varys revealing what he had found out

"Impossible" Said Robert as he was sitting there thinking of how impossible this information is

"How reliable is this information" Said Robert

"It is only a whisper your grace, but I have been getting lots of whispers saying the same thing" said Lord Varys

Robert sat there thinking of what to do.

"Your grace if this is true then I think we should handle this matter with utmost importance since if this King has white hair and is a decedent of the Targaryans then his every breath is a threat to your rule" Said Lord Petyr Baelish

"But how could a Targaryan slip through our fingers, and now he is grown and has a city with an army" Said Robert in an angry tone

"I don't know how your grace, but we should put an end to this before it gets out of hand because if the whispers are true, and he is a Targaryan than he could sail for King's landing any time he wants" Said Grand Maester Pycelle

"We should try and find a way to murder him" said Robert

"There is word that Braavos is preparing to attack Lorath since the King has taken the Sea Lord as a prisoner and refuses to release him. We could use this as a chance to slip somebody into the city and kill him amongst the chaos of the city because there is no way that they can defend against Braavos which is the second strongest of the free cities" said Lord Varys

After thinking for a few seconds, Robert made his decision "Do it and make sure he's dead and there are no more Targaryans with him" Said Robert

After that, the small council meeting had ended and everybody returned to their duties while a plan to kill Greg was under way.

A few days later In Lorath Greg was in the War room planning the defense of the city.

"I want the 20 ships that have cannons waiting here to stop the enemy fleet. And if they break through those ships, then I want the cannons on the wall to be ready" Said Greg

"Yes your grace we will defend the city with our lives, no enemy shall make it pass the walls" Said General Rin

"Good, I know that with you here no army shall survive so the rest of the planning I will leave to you and Aleanna" Said Greg

General Rin had bowed and promised to defeat the enemies. Greg went back to the Palace as he took a leisure walk through the city, enjoying the city has almost completely changed into a Roman city.

There were less homeless and beggars on the streets than before and the atmosphere of the city was good since everybody was happy. Merchants come and go trading in the Port of Lorath.

Children run around playing and having fun while husbands work to bring home food for their family and shelter. As of late, the city has been receiving a slight boost in the number of people moving to the city.

As Greg was walking through the city, many people thanked him and bowed since he has improved their lives greatly. After walking for a little through the city, a little boy around 12 years old tried to approach Greg, but was stopped by the Royal Guards.

Greg approached the boy walking past the Royal Guards as he knelt down to the same height level as the boy, "What's your name boy" Asked Greg

The little boy looked up at Greg, "My name is Noren your Grace" Said the boy

"Noren what are you doing trying to approach me" asked Greg

" Your grace yesterday when I was walking through the city I heard some men talking about killing you and I wanted to let you know since you have helped this city a lot and my momma can feed us again, and she is happy" Said Noren "And if you die that happiness will fade and Momma told me that if somebody ever speaks about killing the King I should him"

"Don't worry Noren I won't die, and it seems your Momma has raised you well" Said Greg as he rubbed Norens head "Here take this and go buy your Momma something nice" Said Greg giving Noren a coin

" thank you your grace, I hope when I get older I can be a soldier and fight for you" Said Noren

"I'm sure you will be a strong soldier" Said Greg as he stood up "But I have to go now so remember to buy your mother something and when you're old enough to be a soldier, come see me" Said Greg as he walked away back to the palace

While he was walking, a Royal Guard walked beside Greg "Find out more about what that boy said and increase the Guards around the Palace" said Greg

The Royal Guard ran to go carry out his orders. While what the boy said could be wrong, still he didn't want to take any chances since he may be strong, but he can still be killed.
