A Feast

Arthur looked in awe at Dragonstone's Halls, now he knew why it was called Dragonstone, Dragons were carve at almost every inch of Stone, Sadly he wouldn't reside in this for Long, as he was currently in a Mission.

"Here we have your Quarters, it is the best we have."

A Servant pointed at a Large Room, quite big for a Guest, the Quarters of his men was not far away, probably just a Few turns.

"Thank you, I will rest for about an Hour."

"Alright, My Lord. I'll let you get settled in."

Once the Servant left he Quickly closed the Door and Locked it. He only had his Sword, and Light Armor. There were things in the Room use, but currently, He was not focused about that.

He thought about the Castellan, an Arrogant one and Full of Himself, he will be easy to Manipulate to Start a Feast. Second, he thought about the Execution of the Plan, there are many options on How to do it, He can do it the Normal way and wait for the Feast, then Stall until they get Drunk, or the Majority of them. Steal their Ships and Supplies then get out.

Second he can add Poison to the Wine and Kill all of them, but there was a Possiblity of his Men drinking the Wine. And the Third, was to use some of His 'Personal Talents' and make all of them fall Asleep.

Currently he was Leaning into the Third Option, as it was the most Effective and he will have the chance of Testing his 'Personal Talents' in a Real Situation.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"My, Lord. Lord Willem summons you to his Solar, he wishes to speak to you about something."

"I will be coming in just a Minute."

----------

Arthur walked in the Hallways along with the Servant, he wondered why the Prick is summoning him to his Solar, Maybe he would ask something to let him pass Dragonstone.

They got to the Lords Solar and the Servant knocked, it was followed by a Permission of Entry and Arthur quickly went inside the Room. He was given a Seat and he took it Gladly.

"My, Lord. I was wondering why you asked for me?"

"Yes, i ask for a quick summary of your Army, It's Strength, Numbers, and Supplies."

"Well our Numbers are 8,000 Men, They can switch with Swords, Archers, and Spears. They can also Ride into Battle on Horseback, Simply put it that they can be any type of Infantry and Cavalry Units. We are Well Fed and in High Morale. I was Planning on Landing Ashore with 2,000 of my Men but i was worried that you will see it as a Plan to take Dragonstone."

The last part was Clearly an Insult, He was basically saying he could take Dragonstone with not even Half of his Army. And he was not even Hiding the Threat.

The Castellan knew it was an Insult and came back with an Insult of his own.

"The King requires for a Formidable Fleet right now, and i am sure that you will serve him truthfully. I will write to the King about your Strength and willingness to serve him, And I believe the King will summon you to Kings Landing and Swear Fealty to him, then you will return here and will Remain Under my Command until the Master of Ships return here, in Dragonstone.

Arthur knew what he was doing, the Arrogant Prick clearly emphasized that He was under HIS Command. And Arthur will serve under Him. For a few Hours.

"Yes, Of Course, My Lord. I will be Happy to Serve the King."

"Good."

"Onto another matter, i was thinking of a Feast, I know you men here in Dragonstone don't get a Feast often, as you are Forbidden from a Feast if your Lord does not Allow it."

"Hn. If the King finds out You and I will be punished. And the Food Supply will Diminish."

"You need not worry about the Food Supply, i have plenty of Food. I will provide the Needs for a Feast."

The Castellan thought about it, Before the Castellan could complete his thoughts however, Arthur Spoke.

"And don't worry, the rest of my Men don't have to come here. I can just send them one of my Men so they can send us the Food, you can also have your men Taste it. My men can also have a Feast of their own in my Ships, I can provide you with the Food and you can Prepare it, so that you are assured that there is no Poison. I know you haven't completely trusted me yet, But i understand it, as we are currently in a War."

The Castellan worried about Arthur potentially Poisoning him but his Worries vanished as soon as Arthur said that his Men can Taste and Prepare the Food.

"I agree to the Feast, If it does not cause you any worry, send for the Food as soon as possible so that my Men can Prepare the Food."

"Thank you, My Lord. By your leave, so that i can Send the Word to my Men."

After a Nod from the Castellan, Arthur left, A Small Smirk Planted on his Face.

----------

Arthur wrote the Letter Carefully in his Chamber, the Letter consisted of the Progress and that the Men that would be sent to the Raid should be Alert, They would come in a Signal, the Signal would be a Torch swung one time from the Right and another from the Left. He then Summoned one of his Men, He made Clear instructions that he shall not Read it, and he should Reach the Ships with utmost Speed. After that he summoned Ares.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

"My, Lord. You summoned me?"

"Enter. And once your inside, lock the Door."

Once Ares entered the Room and then Locked the Door as Requested. Arthur motioned for him to Seat, and he Did so.

"We have made good Progress, the Feast will begin Tonight. Brief the men of the Plan an Hour before the Feast, All of you will stay Sober and Close to each other, when you see something Strange happen in the Room don't worry about it, that is your cue to Leave and Rush for their Supplies and Ships."

Ares listened carefully all of the Commands can be Easily done, but the Last thing was a bit strange, although he would still follow Orders.

"May i Know what lind of Strange thing will Happen?"

"Mist will appear."

That Explanation was brief but it was all Ares asked for.

"Then i shall brief the men about it."

"Good. The Mad King shall have Amusement and Rage mixed in the next Five Days, But Terrible Days shall meet the Castellan and Others Here. A new Batch of Wildfires for the Alchemists to Prepare."
