Chapter 288

"Now you're getting it." He smiled "Still, I would like Acnologia to grow a bit more before the rumors about the Wyverns spread. I don't much care about the Wyverns as they can always be replaced. But I would rather not lose Acnologia to an assassin if possible. It is still vulnerable to steel and poison at this stage of it's life."

His aunt nodded "Are you sure the Wargs will remain loyal to you though? You've given them a taste of power and they'll be hungry for more."

"They're loyal to me." He nodded. He wasn't going to give a Wyvern to a warg who was not loyal to him. And the fact that he alone defeated and captured all these Wyverns in the first place would put the fear of god in them an they won't even think about rebelling against him.

Plus, once Acnologia grows up, he won't even have to worry about the Wyverns considering how a dragon would grow 2-4 times larger than a Wyvern by the time it reaches adulthood.

"If you say so." His aunt said and looked at the Wyvern landing in the distance where it's warg master was sitting on the ground.

"Let's check up on the riders and see if the saddle and the riding suit still need more adjustments." He said and got up from the ground.

Acnologia grumbled in discontent but got and flew away to hunt for a rabbit or deer that it might eat.

He had only taken a few steps when he heard a loud 'caw' from behind him and turned around to see a raven landing in front of him. There was a letter tied to it's leg and instantly understood who sent the letter to him.

"What is it?" his aunt asked once she noticed that he had stopped.

He waved his wand and the letter flew up to him "Just a letter from Bloodraven." Because if the raven came from anyone else then it would have flown to the rookery of Dreadfort rather than come to him.

"The Greenseer?"

"Yes. Him." He opened the letter an quickly went through it's contents before frowning.

"What does it say?" his aunt asked.

"He wants me to return the favor I owe him." He said "You remember Lyra informing us during dinner that Bran Stark has regained consciousness?"

"What of it?"

"Well… Bran has… turned into a fledgling Greenseer after his little fall."

His aunt's eyes widened at that piece of information.

"What does Bloodraven wants from you then?"

"He wants me to bring Bran Stark to him." He frowned "Along with the girl Meera Reed for some reason."

"What does he want from Meera Reed." His aunt asked as she looked at the raven with a suspicious gaze.

"I don't know. Jojen Reed himself had some green dreams. But he died in the North against the wights. And while Meera do have some magical potential, it's not as much as her brother and she cannot even begin to compare to Bran Stark. So, truly… I don't know what Bloodraven wants from the girl."

"Are you going to do it then. Send those two to the Greenseer."

He shrugged "I'll talk with their parents and tell them the truth. If their parents allow them to leave then yes, I'll take them up North. If not… then I won't."

"Well, at least you're not kidnapping children from their beds."

He mock glared at his aunt who just chuckled at him.

"So when are you going to talk with their parents?" she asked.

"I won't talk with their parents. I'm supposed to be in the ships with my men halfway up to Hardhome right now." He said "And I might be ready to reveal my dragon lord heritage but I won't reveal my magical powers. Especially the power to travel from one place to other in an instant. No, I'll have to send someone else in my stead. Someone who would be able to convince both the Reeds and the Starks to send their children Beyond the wall."

"And who is this person that you've put so much faith in."

He smiled and replied.
