Skagosi traditions

[Lyanna stark PoV]

I can't believe how lucky I am, although yes, being trapped in a castle is not the best, I'm still married to the man I love, the soon to be King of the seven kingdoms.

I can't marry Robert, at first I thought him a gallant and honorable man, I was willing to marry him, but then I heard whispers, whispers from my friends and the servent girls back at Winterfell.

Rumors say that all he does when he is not fighting is whore around or just get drunk, others say he has a bastard running around the vale, others say he has tens of bastards going from all the way from Dorne to the Vale.

I can't marry a person like that, instead I have Rheagar, he keeps me company and he is such a gallant man, so manly and handsome so brave and strong, sometimes i could get lost in those purple eyes of his.

That was the man that I was destined to be with, to bare his children who will eventually sit the Iron throne after him, I will be his queen, and mother and grandmother and ancestor to all the kings to come.

(A/N : so yea..... I tried to play her as just another version if Sansa, but she doesn't care about being lady-like like Sansa does, i mean we really never get to see her much, we barely know anything about her really. So yea :/)

Dealing with the brown people, or no, the Gharna clanpeople was easier than expected, i managed to become 'friends' with some of the men, and they offered me to join their clan, not only that, but i also got some information from them.

Clan Gharna was a subservient clan to house Crowl, which is one of the three main houses on Skagos, House Crowl was the 2nd largest house in skagos, the people they were fighting, the red people, or the Dreas clanpeople was a subservient clan to house Stane, which is the smallest house in Skagos, that's all i got from them, except for the fact that when a clash of clans happen, all the men must participate in the battle, all men above the age of 9 must fight, but those young boys are the ones who usually die first, used as cannon fodder on the fields, this way ensures that the winner clan can claim the lands and slave the women of the loser clan, that is if the land was withen the house both clans serve, if not, then the winner clan merely gets the slaves, the land will remain as a part of the territory of the other house, waiting to be claimed by another clan serving that house.

That is tradition in Skagos, tradition that has been followed since the ages of the first men. The three Houses of Skagos have been at war since 8,000 years ago, from before even the long night, and so territory size is constantly changing. And so yes, these men are savages and barbarians.

"And how does one become a clan leader?" I asked my companion for the day, Creol son of Osmond. "There are three ways to become clan leader, one is you inherit position from father, or two, you challenge current clan leader to Armaged, if win, and kill clan leader, you will become clan leader, if you die, then you die, or three, you start clan yourself, then you become clan leader." Creol replied gruffly, the english of the Skagosi was rough. His explanation brought joy to me, 'I will rise to power thanks to their primitive system, mwahahahahahaha'.

Soon enough, as we continued walking down the same path, we came upon a settlement surrounded by a wall of wooden spikes.

Here, the men came to claim their slaves, the previous slaves will mainly just change owners, while the free people will be enslaved, simple as that.

In Skagos there is no such thing as a slave male only female, any male found back at the settlement will be killed, used as food if it were winter.

And so, we entered into the settlement, and some shrieks of fear and terror reached my ears.
