4 Chapter 4
The three-eyed raven made the grave and idiotic mistake of spying on me, but I was grateful for it.
For without that mistake, I would've lost precious time looking for him; but now I have him, after all, he is the one that I have chosen to be my master of whispers.
"Nerzhul, lead those without a mission back to Icecrown," I ordered him, "I will take one thousand soldiers with me, and bring the raven with me,"
"As you command my king," Nerzhul said as he bowed before leaving my sight.
With my part of the army heading back, and the others hunting the remaining wildings tribes, all that was left in my way to fully conquered this area was the dusty old raven.
Readying my horse for my task at hand, I noticed that it showed some changes, his hooves and eyes were glowing blue and his fur was completely black, it kinda reminded me of the mount Acherus Deathcharger.
Acherus, it was a great name.
"Acherus, yes, that shall be your name," It suited the horse to have such name, for it was mine.
After naming my horse I took off deciding put the one thousand undead, that I originally wanted coming with me, on standby, I didn't need them.
With Acherus, it would take me about one hour to get there, but my army wasn't that fast, and all that old man had was a couple of children's of the forest by his side, I had no need for an army.
Putting my one thousand soldiers on standby for I would probably use them if the old man needed to stay on his base to serve I started galloping through the icy tundra, Frostmourne, on my back.
The Game of Thrones.
It was a concept that amused me.
It amused me the idea of seeing the political mistake that was the game of thrones up close, it fired up some tingle of excitement inside of me; it was interesting how they played their little games.
When in the end it didn't matter, the world was mine.
But my entertainment would have to wait, first I needed to conquest Essos and Braavos, with the Dothraki under my command, my army would grow exponentially.
And not only that, but I knew for sure that three dragon eggs were in Essos, but that brought up the question could I hatch them? fire was a pretty important part of it.
My knowledge of it was pretty unclear; all I knew is that Daenerys hatched them so to ensure said result, I would have to recreate the same scenario.
She would burn.
And once the dragons were fully grown, I would turn them.
My thoughts were shaken out path, when I feel my horse running on something unstable.
Looking down, I see that Acherus was galloping on water, freezing his way through a lake that somehow managed to stay liquid in this weather.
"Intriguing," I muttered, it seems Acherus keeps evolving.
I was getting close, I could feel the three-eyed raven, he was close, behind the ice hills I was seeing, soon he would be mine.

[Three eyed Raven POV]
He was close, I could feel the area getting colder, he wanted me for what I was unsure, but he wanted me.
"Don't worry, as long as our runes are in place; he can't enter, no matter how strong this white walker is," Leaf reassured me.
"I know but how would a white walker overthrown his own maker," I inquired, we knew he was related to the dark power that awakened a couple of hours ago, but it didn't make any sense.
"The magic he wields is dark and powerful, but it won't matter against our runes, as long as he didn't mark you. Otherwise then will runes stay, the wall will stay," Leaf reassured once again.
I could only hope she was right; they had worked against the night king so far, perhaps they would work just fine against this new king.

[Back to The Lich King]
My horse was galloping fast wind-breaking in my helm; I was getting closer.
I could feel it.
It didn't take long before I laid my eyes on his hideout.
The cave of the Three-Eyed Raven a place located far Beyond the Wall and everything, except me.
It served as the hiding place of the greenseer I was looking for, known as the Three-Eyed Raven and a group of children of the forest who protect the place and him.
Above the cave, I could see an ancient and massive weirwood tree with a face carved on its trunk.
I could feel the magic flowing through the area; no wonder they decided to set their base here.
I could feel weirwood's roots digging deep into the cave, and I can also feel that they have merged with the body of the Three-Eyed Raven.
The entrance to the cave was protected by an ancient spell courtesy of the Children of the Forest, destroying the undead creatures if they attempted to enter.
"You can't enter, monster!" One of the children threw a bomb at me.
"It is a weakness, the living have, to oppose the inevitable," I said as I jumped off my horse waking towards the invisible barrier, "Your magic is strong, Child, but I am beyond strength."
"The barrier is breaking!" One of them shouted.
"I am the end, and I have come for all of you," I said as I effortlessly broke the barrier.
"We are doomed," Leaf said with despair.

[Daenerys POV]
My brother had narrowed the prospects for my hand to one; I still didn't know his name or who he was.
Was he a lord? Was he a good person?
"Dany come over here," My brother said with an unusually sweet tone.
Confused I did as I was ordered approaching him.
"We will meet your future husband in one month, be sure to look dashing," My brother said with a commanding tone.
"Yes, brother," I nodded.
"Good, we wouldn't want to wake the dragon, would we?" Viserys chuckled in delight.

[Back to The Lich King]
Their barriers meant nothing, their magic meant nothing, for they cant avoid a calamity.
The children ran throwing bombs at me, doing zero damage to me or the armor.
I continued to walk, ignoring them for now, until I reached my target.
"I never thought the barrier would go down so easy," The three-eyed raven commented.
"A futile attempt to avoid what can't be avoided," I said with a cold tone.
"I see," The three-eyed raven chuckled; I could see all the children of the forest standing in front of him, the last six of them.
"You can't——" Leaf tried to stop me just to find Frostmourne piercing right through her skull.
"Leaf!" One of the children cried out, just to be killed soon after.
"Freeze And die," I said, killing the rest of the children with a blast of chilling cold power.
"Now it's my turn; I suppose" The three-eyed raven sighed, he was wise enough to understand I was unavoidable.
"Yes," I said, piercing his heart with Frostmourne.
"Rise," I commanded, and the bodies of the recently killed children and old man rose up as I ordered.
"You will continue doing what you've been so far, protecting him," I ordered the children, who only nodded in obedience, they all feared me, true and untamed fear.
"Yes, my king," Leaf said, controlling her fear.
"And you, you will gather information like you have been doing and you will give me said information," I order the three-eyed raven.
"As you command," The three-eyed raven nodded, before adding, "My king,"
"Do you need to stay here for your powers to work correctly?" I inquired.
"It helps, the area is rich in mana, and helps me channel my powers with ease," The old raven answered.
"Then you will stay," I ordered.
"As you wish, my king," The three-eyed raven said kneeling, and after a few seconds he went back to the tree.
To do my bidding.
As the raven got comfortable, I mentally the ordered one thousand undead soldiers I had on standby to come to my location and guard my master of whispers.
'The builders say the ships should be done by tomorrow, my King,' Nerzhul said through our mental link.
'Good,' I replied, it seems having more than fifteen thousand workers working on a single task really paid off, the giants helped a lot too.
Calling Acherus, I rode off back to Icecrown, leaving my new minions to do their job, I had a construction to oversee.
