Adoption of the Children of the North and memories with Daenerys
Arya understood Adrián a little, he couldn't change certain events because they had to happen otherwise it would cause something worse, but he could change it as he did with his aunt, Elia, their children, and a few other people
Arya: Then the Sansa thing has to happen.
Adrián: Unfortunately yes, but I am going to intervene so that nothing irreversible bad happens, and believe me horrible things will happen because of that stupid way of southern upbringing, on the other hand, Arya has a better-defined world neither white nor black, a gray
Aria nodded.
Adrián: Well, since it's time let's eat something and rest too many emotions happened today, by the way, nobody will be able to write anything about what they see on the island when they write and want to talk about things they won't be able to and they will only be able to write about what they learned.
Everyone was surprised by that, but they accepted, they knew that these secrets had to be kept
After eating Lyanna then said.
Arya, you will train with me and Ser Arthur, Little Lyanna you will train with Dulan, Jojen, and Meera, you will train with Ygritte and Elentary.
In addition to training in combat, they will attend school in the morning, they will learn the things necessary to manage their homes. Economy. Mathematics, history, grammar and reading and law along with other bodies of useful knowledge in agriculture, Forestry, Aquaculture or livestock or beekeeping
Dulan for his part added: Later when they get up and are changed we will see each other here on the patio and I will take them to the forges, we are going to make them adequate armor and weapons so that they can learn
They all nodded, Arya was happy about this, although a little exhausted by all the things that were revealed to her, there was a joy in her heart.
Thus passed the year 297
Too many things happened, My little animals in King's Landing told me about the disasters of the private council, Petyr stealing left and right with that Gold, buying all the possible brothels in Westeros for his espionage network, or investing in ghost businesses that had little return, Pycelle he used small children for disgusting things and diverted funds for the citadel, Renly was a full-fledged idiot, the only thing he did was please Robert in his expenses and he had every intention of crowning himself king as soon as the fat man died.
Both Jon and Stannis saw that Renly was trying to skip the succession laws again and take over as king if Robert dies, usurping his "Children"
Jon was doing everything possible to stop Robert and had investigated with Stannis Robert's children, Stannis tried to increase the maritime business of King's Landing without much success the golden cloaks extorted anyone with money or corrupt nobles.
Both Jon Arryn and Stannis came several times to ask for advice to increase the gold sources, I gave them some advice, but they always failed at the hands of their dear Master of the Mint or the most greedy houses to surprise the only "Normal" house was the house Velaryon who earned a good deal trading
Hell, I showed them my accounting books, and their eyes almost popped out when they saw the amount of gold I earned from my businesses, textiles were in high demand in Essos and free cities, medicines, food, games, and entertainment in general, punitive contracts against the Dothraki and the pirates, he even got to trade cebrallos with the Jogos Nhai, a fairly warlike town, but they loved liquor and a bit of Dulan's strength with a bit of negotiation they gave us a dozen horses and some brood mares.
The truth, since Robert took office, everything had gone to shit due to his inactivity by not being present and delegating everything, corruption increased to excessive levels, and something had to be given to Tywin, the subject was an iron fist for those issues. Renly was an idiot with the air of a King, he thought that delivering stale bread would solve everything, the damned idiot thought that by doing that he would be crowned after all I had done it because he hadn't.
When I visited Essos while not taking care of Daenerys I found an interesting thing almost all of Essos were screwed by dark magic they had altered the state of the earth that would take seven years to recover if we started to purify it immediately. The ghost grass was an unclean plant that absorbed the vitality of the earth and spread rapidly.
Some Dothraki that I met on my trip said that this plant would end all life if it continued to expand, they were not all bad people their customs were very different they focused on the Force, violence, and looting as absolutes, but not everyone agreed with that and they separated from the tribes and were lonely travelers, I hired them to be cavalry instructors for the soldiers of the island.
time ago he had met the Hrakkar, Beautiful White Hybrid Lions, there were only a few left and they had asked him to take them somewhere far away where they could not be hunted for their skins so I decided to take them to the island and set up a colony, I told them that the Direwolves and the ShadowCats were there and they agreed to protect the lands, they are protective creatures.
Out of curiosity, I looked for Khal Drogo, it was not as he had been painted in the series, he looked like Momoa, but he was a sadistic and terrible being, he murdered at pleasure and raped women as he pleased if Daenerys calls me I will intervene and save her.
The girl had changed to be a much better version of her, she had taught her how to govern in the most equitable way possible, and how to use wealth efficiently, she got angry with her brother for the waste of money and his bad actions.
Many times she asked me to see the Targaryen governments, but she only concluded that there were more nefarious governments supported by the fear of the dragons than good governments.
POV Memory of Daenerys with Adrián.
It was Night Daenerys and I were seeing more of the government of Daeron II Targaryen, he was one of the few kings who had made a real change in the kingdoms and not making the custom of incest, something interesting that she noticed is that the worst governments had this tradition.
Daenerys: Daeron II's rule is incredible, it's almost like the way you taught me to rule, if only he didn't perish in the Great Spring Sickness along with several of his more able sons.
Adrián: Similar yes, but different Dany in his council were mostly noble and wise, but they would not understand the common people, the representation of the people in power is something important your people must be listened to if not look at Robert's government right now the people it bleeds more than ever, a council of isolated voices is dangerous because you hear one, not both.
Daenerys nodded, the man had been a blessing, at first she was afraid of him because of the magic he could use, but little by little he was protecting her from her brother and assassins sent by the Usurper.
He showed her things never seen before, he told her that he did not want to see her become a sister or wife or as a doll for some nobleman just for an army, that had touched her heart, they had never shown her so much affection, although she did not know He asked the young man's name several times, he only answered.
Adrián: It's not time Dany not yet, in a few years you will meet him.
Daenerys reluctantly accepted this and continued to learn all possible things, the man taught her an Ethical and Judicial Code, and she was passionate about it, it had many rules to protect people, standards of conduct, Crimes, and corresponding punishments, but not all punishments deserved death, many had forced labor, prison time, the most severe such as murder if they had capital punishment.
One day we practiced a trial of a farmer who had stolen some food for his family, at first she wanted to sentence him to prison time. Adrian then took a rolled-up parchment and tapped her on the head and said.
Adrián: Dani, don't rush the sentences, there may be more behind the story.
As the story continued, the man was forced to steal because his farm was looted and burned by the vendor who reported him.
Adrián: By hastening your sentence of justice, you did not see the whole panorama of the matter, you sentenced a man who should be innocent to an unjust punishment and by doing this the merchant who burned his farm will feel more powerful.
Daenerys reflected and asked: What would you have done in the face of this?
Adrián with a smile: Good question and many answers, I can use magic to heal the land of man, I can show you other types of work while your farm recovers so you can feed your family, I will fine and imprison the Merchant with Years in jail and man's field plowing or road building.
Daenerys looked at Adrián, he just smiled at her, it was such a tender smile, the girl was happy and asked her for more advice on laws.
Then Adrián taught him the benefits of an educated people, how useless the Masters are so that accumulating knowledge if it is not used, will only accumulate dust in a library and a few will be able to read it, for example, medical knowledge.
They could save hundreds of thousands of lives each month, but the masters are so afraid of losing power that they let it gather dust and rats eat the parchment.
Daenerys understood the need for the people of the 7 kingdoms to start educating themselves, the jobs could be more efficient and many magnificent things could emerge.
Daenerys: But what about the power of the great lords and noble houses?
Adrián looked at her and said: Dany, tell me what the great lords and noble houses are, where they came from or who put them in their place.
Daenerys thought for a while and had no answer. She learned that her family came from Valyria and they were nobles, but delving deeper she learned that it was not a powerful house, it was a very minor and relegated house.
Adrián spoke: Dany, those houses arose from the common people, if they do things well and govern with justice, their power will be maintained. When they do things wrong their power will be lost, an example is the North Bolton house, they are lousy rulers, and their Bastard Ramsey Snow is the worst kind of person just like his father.
If the common people could see that they are more than the Bolton soldiers they would rise and DreadFort would be burned to the ground, but in their mind, they are still afraid of the Boltons being more of them.
Daenerys nodded and a growl rang through the room.
Adrián laughing a little said: I see that little Dragona is hungry, well I think it's time for us to finish our studies and eat something.
I open a portal to the emerald dream and invite her to come in, inside there was a table set with various foods, juices, and sweets. It was not the first time that she had come to the dream, the first time she had been terrified of the portal until she saw the world inside it, a world of nature and beauty without equality.
She ate until she was satisfied, food was scarce for her, but not for her brother, who feasted tirelessly, the nobles of the free cities wanted to please him, a king's favor is worth a lot, Dany tried many times to stop him, until to the point of hitting her which I stop by appearing at the last second and wiping her mind with powerful hallucinogenic mushroom powder.
When she finished eating, Dany told me how her brother would take her to Pentos, a powerful Illyrio magister. Mopatis offered them shelter.
Daenerys noticed how the face of the young man in front of her grew darker and angrier. With concern, I ask.
Daenerys: Master, why is he so furious at the idea of going with Magister Illyrio?
Adrián looked at her: Dany, please promise me that no matter what happens, you will call me if your brother does something stupid, I can't tell you everything now, if I do, something bad could happen and it would be catastrophic.
When the time comes I will reveal my name and who I am, But look at me, I promise you before the Ancient Gods that I will protect you from everything that happens to you, Adrián's face was serious, a little guilt and sorrow showed in it, Daenerys I feel it.
Her heart was beating strongly because of the young man's words, she didn't know what was driving him so much, but she knew that he would protect her, even if the world was going to end since she was a child he was taking care of her and protecting her from everything. , he had never aged, his face was that of a beautiful young man with green eyes and black hair well groomed and cut, and his body was well formed demonstrating his physical work and a sharp and ingenious mind.
Daenerys then said, squeezing her hands: I know, I know you'll take care of me and I promise that whatever happens, I'll call you.
Adrián took her hand and just said: Thanks Dany, I think it's time to go to sleep, we're all tired and tomorrow you'll leave for Pentos.
Daenerys didn't want this to end, she felt the warm hand of the man her hand, and her heart beating wildly, but they had to separate, she was sleepy after eating and studying all night.
