17 Chapter 18
LYSA ARRYN POV:
it's been more than 4 months since my son brought me to the north, more like exiled me, and its all because of Petyr, if I knew what I did would cost me my beloved son, I wouldn't have done it, but it all doesn't matter anymore, because my son decided to forgive me and take me back to the Eyrie where I belong, with him, even if he didn't come, I understand that he has some monsters to exterminate, I have heard of all he has done, he made the Vale the 3rd richest kingdom in westors, he created an order of 30000 men called "the order of the Falcon", he has so many achievements like saving more then 60 villages from sure death, it appears the even castles were attacked, he exterminated more then 300000 monsters, offering help to all that needs it, he even got a call of help from Dorne recently, I think he's going there now with "the Falcon Reapers" and "The 300 Eternal Protectors of The Falcon", a force of 5300 men, they may seem like a small number but when you add "the order of the Falcon" beside it, every one will know that its a force not to be messed with, and his most recent and greatest achievement, taming more then 15000 monsters called "Shriekers", it is said that no weapon works on them and they are the fastest monsters found yet, and most of all their king, my son's mount, he named him "Aeolus", Aeolus is said to be twice the size of a dragon, normally I would say dragons are not real but after this... I heard that the Lannister didn't like The Vale rising in such speed, so they decided to show the world that "the order of the Falcon" is nothing great, and that is by creating their own order, they call it " the order of the Lion", it had 40000 men, you know why i said it "had"?, because it just history now, the lannisters heard that there were arround 1000 shriekers in the mountains, so they decided to send their whole order to subdue them, to prove that there is nothing the Lannisters can't do, 5 men returned, at last they just helped in bettering how people see "the order of the Falcon" .... normally, I would be afraid to get out of the castle, let alone travel all the way back to the Eyrie, I heard that hundreds of merchant caravans were destroyed, but in his letter, he said he will send a 100 men from "The Falcon Knights" division to escort me, even if it was just 1, I would feel safe let alone a 100.
I am now out saying goodbye to my sister and her family.
Me: goodbye Catelyn.
I said as I hugged her.
Catelyn: goodbye.
Rob: goodbye aunt Lysa, please take care of Arya
he said hugging me.
Me: don't worry about her, I'm sure Arslan is taking good care of her.
Catelyn: yes, I'm sure he is.
just as she finished her sentence we heard the sound of a war horn, and we knew that my escort is here.
at that moment, mighty knights rode in, such great discipline, such great armors, even the 'kingsguards' don't have such extravagant armor and weapons.
they slowly and orderly entered while rob had a look of amazement and respect.
suddenly.
"ROOOOOAAR"
we heard the sounds of tens of monsters roaring at once, we raised our eyes only to meet these monsters descending towards the walls and we were scared shitless, only when we saw who was riding these monsters did we calm down, only for them to descend and stand at the walls looking at us.
then one of the soldiers on horseback that I assume is the leader of this team, dismounted his horse and walked to me, he then bowed and said.
the leader: if you are ready my lady.
he said pointing his hand towards the carriage.
Me: yes.
I said nodding at him as I said goodbye one more time before I entered the carriage.

ARYA STARK:
its been 2 months since Lord Arslan started to train me, his training was harsh and he doesn't let me rest, he trains me every day, and now even if 10 normal soldiers attacked me at once, I can easily handle them, except that I can't even land a hit on "The Falcon Knights", even without using weapons and with that heavy armor they are just too fast, and even with that strength, they never stop training, I don't think that even Jaime Lannister can beat them.
as a reward for my training, he gave me a baby shrieker, they really grow fast, he's already the size of a grown one, yesterday I tried riding it with Nymeria, it was the best experience in my life, Nymeria seemed to have a good time too.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ARSLAN POV:
I am now riding Aeolus, along with 2500 men from "the Falcon Reapers", and 150 from "The 300 Eternal Protectors of The Falcon", the other half are on the ground, we are heading to Dorne, I got a letter from them, it says that they were attacked by some monsters and that they will pay, of course, I rejected the money, they will be useful in the wars to come, however, I have another goal in mind, I'm going to Valyria, people think I'm only taking 5300 men, but I'm also taking the new secret division of 5000 men that I created a month ago, where are they you ask? in the sea, I had them drink the water potion, actually, every one of them drank more than 1000 potion, they didn't get out of the water ever since, except for the 50 that are operating the 10 ships I will be taking to Valyria, the rest of them are still underwater, but first I will be going to "King's Landing" to check on Ned Stark, and of course show them my mighty army.

5 DAYS LATER:
KING'S LANDING:
everyone except the Lannisters was out to receive Arslan but mainly see if him taming monsters was true.
as they were waiting they suddenly heard the roar of Aeolus, they only calmed down after seeing Arslan riding it, followed by 2650 other monster riders, they then turned their eyes back down to see the mighty cavalry coming also.
Arslan then Landed on the clearing and got dismounted Aeolus, and his Aird Force stayed in the sky flying, and so did his cavalry.
he then went in front of the king while putting his left hand on his sword, he bowed slightly and said.
Arslan: your highness.
the king just nodded, smiled then said.
the king: nice entrance as always.
Arslan also smiled.
and said.
Arslan: It's...
before he could finish he was cut by the prince.
Joffrey: hey, give me one of these beasts, I want one.
Arslan: Your mount chooses you, not you who will choose him.
Joffrey just scoffed.
Joffrey: whatever, it's not gonna find a better master than me, give me one.
Arslan just smiled and sent a message to one of the shriekers to get down.
the beast got down and its rider was very calm because he knew its probably because of Arslan.
Arslan then said to the rider.
Arslan: Get down and stand aside.
the rider nodded and did as told.
Arslan then turned to Joffrey and smiled saying.
Arslan: there it is, if it lets you mount it then it's yours, but be careful not to be hurt, we wouldn't want that to happen, now would we?
Joffrey just gave a confidant smile.
he then went to the shrieker and tried to touch it.
and as he did, Arslan sent a message to the shrieker to scare the shit out of him.
just as Joffrey's hand touched the beast, the beast shook his head removing Joffrey's hand off his head before he roared at him, Joffrey fell to the ground on his butt with a scared face.
Joffrey: HOW DARE YOU, I AM THE PRINCE, KILL HIM, KILL HIM I TELL YOU.
"This shit again??"
"well, whatever you deserve it"
the king: he warned you boy, it's not the beast's fault.
Arslan nodded at the rider who then mounted his shrieker and flew.
the king: so what are you here for?
asked the king.
Arslan: I wanted to talk to Lord Stark about his daughter Arya before I went to Dorne.
he said as he turned to Ned and nodded.
Ned: yes, follow me please.
Arslan nodded at the king and got a nod back before he turned to look at the still scared prince and smiled he then followed Ned passing by Sansa who he spared no look to.
at Ned's study.
Ned: what did you want to talk to me about Lord Arslan, is my daughter alright?
Arslan: she's alright, she's doing great actually she has a talent for the sword, but that's not what I wanted to talk to you about.
Ned had a look of confusion.
Arslan: how are you doing in this shithole??
Ned: this place has plots everywhere, and Starks don't do good south, I don't like being here.
Arslan: I see, well if you need something, anything, just send a letter and I will help to the best of my ability.
Ned: yes, thank you.
Arslan: well I have to go now, but remember, anything.
he said getting up.
Ned nodded, and Arslan got out of the room.
he went straight to Aeolus not wanting to stay in this shithole anymore.
