Jon pov

Later that night in Jon's solar

I knew Tywin would act one way or the other but he just sent me the mountain on a platter, it started with when I 'found' 3 Valariyan steel blades out in the seas and the Tywin wanted a valariyan steel blade for years now, so I just asked him an insane price for the sword ,five hundred thousand gold dragons

This negotiation went back and forth for while but last year he finally agreed and sent me the gold and I sent him the blade, he wants to kill me for a year now today he finally made a move

For Tywin to want me dead has multiple reasons not just the overpriced sword I sold him, I am a strong lord of the north who protects the neck from Southern armies and I have a big host for a single lord and a lot of wealth ,and I don't have any hiers if I die without a successor then all the lords from north fight to get Moat Cailin and create chaos

As I am drinking my wine varys enters my solar

"A fantastic display today my king, the velaryon boy died by his skull being smashed and today the mountain had his skull smashed in, it's quite poetic your grace"

"It's killing varys there is nothing dignified or poetic about it, why are you here ?"

"I like it here your grace, here the realm is not in shambles, not falling deeper and deeper in debt while the king is whoring and drinking without a care,here the weak are not exploited and killed on whims of the strong, it's like a window into your reign your grace"

"Yes but my reign will start with war and bloodshed as all new ones do, so what are your little birds singing , it must be quite a song for you to come all the way here"

"Most are usual your grace , the tyrells are trying to put a flower on the throne, the riverlords are doing nothing as usual ,the old trout was ambitious but the young one is a fool, the vale would remain neutral unless we cut out a little finger,dorne is silent as ever, but the interesting song is that Stannis and the hand are finally realizing about the royal children, it would seem that days of the fat king are numbered"

"14 years that all it took , I thought he would last longer than that"

"All men want the Throne your grace but very few could bare its weight , we have to act quickly my king or the realm will bleed "

"Don't worry it will be over before they even know what happened, fire and blood it doesn't get more simple than that, and one more thing I keep seeing my uncle Eddard Stark in the black cells if that happens take him out before he loses his head, few of my ships are always docked at kings landing "

"I will act as soon as I get a chance, hopefully next time we meet you shall be the king of seven kingdoms and not just my king "

As varys left Arthur came out of the shadows, ever since I made him a kingsgaurd he doesn't leave my side

"You should be careful your grace, I don't trust the spider"

"I don't trust him not completely anyway, I have men in kingslanding posing as servants, gold cloaks, smiths etc if he tries something I will have his head , anyway Robert dying changes nothing we are prepared either way "

Lord Reed brought Arthur dayne and Ashara dayne a year after Ghost and Nightfury were born, both of them were supposed to be dead but after getting wounded by Howland Reed at the tower of joy Arthur lost the use of his left leg and needed a cane to walk, once known as the greatest swordsman of the seven kingdoms reduced to a cripple , Howland Reed offered to let him live at Greywater watch where no one would find him, lady Ashara also came with to take care of her brother

Arthur wanted to serve me but he was a warrior and what use is of a cripple in battle so he stayed in Greywater, seeing Arthur with a cane I used a little dragon blood and magic to make him a dragon guard ,they were the warriors who protected the Valariyan mages, they are made stronger, faster than ordinary men with the use dragon blood

Arthur is my first kingsgaurd and I plan to make every one of them dragon guards, Arthur was a great fighter even before the potion but after taking it he can easily fight ten men on his own

"What about the trail tomorrow ?" Arthur asked "we will proceed as planned " he just nodded at my response

A day later

There is a huge feast in the great hall to complete the celebration, all the lords of north are in attending today

I stand up from my seat " my lords we here to celebrate today but thats not all, there will be a trail today, I formed the Wolfgaurds to protect the north and its people but the person under trail today has harmed the the people under his care,bring out the prisoner"

Two of the wolfgaurds came with Roose Bolton in chains, he was a little beaten up, all the lords were shocked at this

"My lords Roose Bolton here has been flaying people,forcing the right of the first night even though they were outlawed for years, he sits backs and does nothing when his bastard son hunts the smallfolk that live in his lands, raping and killing along the way"

I showed them all the proof of the Bolton's crimes, even called the smallfolk to testify Infornt of everyone, pretty soon every lord was calling for Bolton's head

I wanted to take care of the Boltons for a while but when I learned of their crimes I took 500 of my best men to sneak in the dreadfort and kill those bastards, I slaughtered every last man who were involved in the crimes even the bastard ramsey but I could not kill a lord without a proper trail

I turned to my uncle" Lord Stark pass your judgement " my uncle looked angry clearly disgusted by the things the boltons did

"Lord Bolton would be executed for the crimes against the north and its people, House Bolton would die with him, their keep and lands would be given to others"

Ayes were heard across the room ,as the lords were satisfied with this ruling, this why I like the north , the trail was simple without any unnecessary proceedings

With a war coming I can't have the Boltons on my back while I fight in the front, the north will be my main support for my claim of the Iron Throne
