Chapter 38-[A King's head topples]
[T/N: I tried to fix this as best I could without ruining the effect. Also congrates on making it to 100 powerstones, I know you guys struggled with that.]
Stannis rides with his men, his fury knows no limits.
Robb Stark couldn't understand what fury was, he wasn't a Baratheon.
Just as Robert's fury caused him to spark a rebellion that eliminated House Targaryen.
His fury would destroy House Bolton.
He walked to the battlefield and looked on coldly.
He had brought seven thousand men with him.
Ramsay was waiting for him with about fourteen thousand.
The bastard smiled when he saw him on the battlefield.
He looked at little Jon and nodded.
The Umber gave the signal with the trumpet.
The thousands of men rode to their objectives.
Stannis attacked, although more than half of his army deserted.
The man was thrown back by the first stampede, and ran into the woods around Winterfell, with a fatal wound to his stomach.
His men were dead and he knew it.
"Damn, if only I had listened to Robb Stark," he muttered as he fell.
He felt tired and knew he was finished.
"I hope you win Robb," he murmured.
Renly's image appeared in his mind.
"I'm sorry," he muttered.
" I didn't hate you. I was furious, I'm a Baratheon, that's how we are Renly," he whispered.
He heard a horse.
He looked to see the bastard.
But it wasn't him.
A tall blonde woman.
"I am Brienne Tarth...guard of King Renly Baratheon," she said.
"How ironic," Stannis thought.
"During my stay in the land of storms, I saw my king killed by a shadow with your face. Do you deny having murdered your brother using sorcery? "She asked.
Stannis looked at her.
It had taken so long, but the time came to do his duty. After so many years, such a long road.
She thought he was an exemplary gentleman.
'It's a shame that none of my people have the honor of him,' he thought before looking into her eyes.
"I don't deny it, I killed Renly," he said.
The knight took out the sword from him.
"In the name of King Renly Baratheon, king of the seven kingdoms, I declare you guilty and execute you in his name," she said.
Stannis sighed.
He somehow felt at peace.
"Do you have anything to say, my lord?" she asked.
Stannis looked at her.
"Renly did not deserve the throne, but neither did I... There is only someone in the seven kingdoms, with that sense of duty and honor... Robb Stark, when you finish here, go with him, he will need knights like you... Now do your duty" finished the king

Robb arrived at the camp, very late, he looked towards the captain who explained to him about Stannis.
"Why didn't he wait?" he muttered.
Melisandre and Davos were shocked upon hearing the news.
"His body was found in the woods, decapitated," he said.
"Decapitated? Not tortured or disgraced...it doesn't sound like the bastard Bolton," Robb said.
"His armor and his sword were intact," the captain said.
Robb looked at him confused.
"Who killed him?" he muttered.
"Now it doesn't matter who, but how many men we have," said Ser Davos.
"Seventy percent of the men were killed or deserted," the captain said.
"My lord," the boy heard the voice of a girl.
He turned and saw when she walked in a girl he hadn't seen in years.
"Jeyne," he whispered.
The girl threw herself into Robb's arms.
"Please, my king, forgive him," the girl begged.
Robb held her, not understanding anything.
Ser Davos explained to him what he knew.
Jeyne pretended to be Arya Stark so that the Boltons would have a marriage with the Starks and control of the North.
Robb heard that she was married to the bastard, he imagined the hardships she had to go through for that.
"Forgive him? The bastard?" he asked incredulously.
"Theon, forgive Theon," she pleaded.
Robb's eyes widened.
"Theon," he murmured.
"Theon Greyjoy was captured with her, they escaped from Winterfell," said the captain.
"Forgive Theon? He betrayed us! attacked the north!" he whispered.
"He has paid for it... Believe me, his majesty, if he sees it he will understand, Theon has paid for his sins," she murmured.

Jon watched Daenerys get off the ship with a dozen men.
The woman did not hesitate to run towards him and hug him as soon as he arrived.
"Are you tired?" she asked worried.
"I used a lot of mana, I almost exhausted my reserves...But we took the city...Sansa is even worse, but we are not hurt," he said.
Danny walked next to him.
"People are afraid of you," she whispered.
"They fear change, the anti-slavery law has been declared...Many do not believe us, they think that we are going to enslave them again" he said.
"Ok, we should do the coronation ceremony as soon as possible," she said.
Jon nodded.
"We will schedule it for tomorrow," he said.
Daenerys took his hands, and he took her to the place where his refuge was located, at least, the largest pyramid in Meeren.
Danny, Sansa (who seemed to have not slept very well), Arya, and Jon ate together while they talked, they would divide tasks in the following days until they improved the city.
She knew that many masters escaped by boat as soon as the doors were destroyed. They would return with armies.
As for Valyria.
There was no attack, it was both good and bad.
Sam was able to activate Redsun's defenses, but he still hasn't improved them.
XXXXXXXX
Sansa rested in her bed, in the pyramid that Jon took as his headquarters.
Arya stayed with her instead of in a room of her own, because she was worried.
During the battle, Sansa had used at least ninety percent of her mana, to the point of being unconscious.
Sansa was already recovering after eating and sleeping for a couple of days, even so, she seemed tired, it was the first time she was so exhausted.
Fortunately, when she levels up, her mana increases, so she was able to last the entire battle.
"Arya," she whispered.
The girl approached.
"In Meeren, did you level up?" she asked.
Arya blinked and nodded.
"Yes, I'm at level 10," she said.
Sansa smiled at her, and her smile turned crooked.
Arya furrowed an eyebrow at her.
"11" provoked the eldest.
The girl's face blushed.
"It's not fair!" she exclaimed before the other's laughter.
[T/N: Nah that's funny.]

Jon and Danny were able to spend the night together after so many months, she told him about the dragon eggs, and the possibility of starting to raise some, they required a blood ritual. Or a dragon's blood sacrifice.
Since she was the only one with dragon blood, for now, the blood ritual was the only option, since Jon would not risk losing her.
Then they began to plan the wedding, which according to the promise was imminent, doing it in Valyria was ideal, but unfortunately, they did not have a church there.
Sansa was the saint, but still, Jon was a believer in the old gods of the forest, Danny grew up with the gods of Essos and the seven gods of Westeros.
The next day everyone was in the central square of Meeren.
"And so, I Daenerys of the House Targaryen, name you Jon Snow, King of Valyria, of Asaptor, of Yunkai, Liberator of slaves. Absolute King of Meeren " She said with drama as she placed a molten gold crown on Jon's head.
Jon opened his eyes in the white room.
"Another title," he murmured.
He walked to the computer.

The boy pressed exit, and looked at Danny who was smiling.
"From now on, slavery is prohibited. The Slave cities will no longer be called so. Yunaki, Asaptor and Meeren. They belong to the great kingdom of Valyria, with the new laws prohibiting slavery," he said.
People started applauding.
"In the following days, the reconstructions will begin, in addition, today in one of the six abandoned pyramids, a hospital, or medical center as they call it, will open, this will serve any man or woman of any age, or status. Freely," he said.
[T/N: YEAH!!!! Oh...yeah, only in a fantasy world.]
Screams were heard at that.
"Holy Sansa, my dear Sister, will be in charge," He said, pointing to her.
"HOLY…HOLY" they cried.
Sansa blushed and looked at Jon angrily.
"Meanwhile, two pyramids will be used as shelter for people who lost their homes, they will be rebuilt before the end of this year," he said.
Other shouts of joy were heard.
"Finally, the market constructions will have priority, to bring medicines and food, a large amount of the latter has been saved to feed the city. Fear not, as long as I am in charge, there will be food, shelter, and work for everyone. No one will die of hunger, no one will sleep on the streets, and no one will be put in chains. Never again," Jon finished.
Screams were heard throughout the square as Jon's name was cried throughout it.
Danny smiled at him happily, they had achieved their goal.
Although they knew that both the masters who fled and the free cities were not going to leave them alone, not after this.
"The masters will organize themselves, they will look for allies," Jon murmured.
"We'll take care of it," Danny whispered.
"We will send people from Valyria too. Arthur must see to it that many recruits are trained this year," Sansa said.
Daario listened to everything without giving an opinion.
"Let's prepare the defenses, and repair the doors for now," he muttered.
"It will take money," the mercenary clarified.
Jon smiled.
"That's the only thing we have for sure," he said.
Daario looked at him curiously, the boy handed him something in his hand, before leaving.
The mercenary saw that it was a strange stone.
No, it wasn't a stone.
"A sapphire," he muttered.
"There's more where that one came from, tell that to your merchant friends," Jon said, leaving with Danny.
Daario stared at him.
"Heh, interesting"
