(Lancel POV)

The next day in the hall, I asked my sister to accompany me to the combat arena, and to watch from the public

"I'm going to fight" Lisa told me approaching and taking my left arm.

"It could be dangerous for you," I tell her, watching as she reaches up and touches the side of my chin, then turns my head to his side.

"You don't have to worry about me, I know how to defend myself" Lisa tells me pulling my clothes and bringing her face closer to mine

"What are you doing?" I ask her with doubts

"I want to know if you feel nervous" Lisa tells me brushing her lips against mine and I feel my heart rate go up

"What do they do?" Rhaenys asks pulling Lisa away from me.

"Jealous" Lisa says with disgust

"Let's take Princess Daenerys with us" Rhaenys tells me, ignoring Lisa's comment.

"We must talk to Viserys first" I told them, and headed for Viserys' room.

Before entering, Lisa took me by the left arm and Rhaenys by the right arm, and we heard Viserys's voice giving us permission to enter.

"You come in good company" Viserys tells me seeing Rhaenys's hand around me and then looks at Lisa with a frown.

"You have Targaryen blood, but you can't awaken your blood heritage," Lisa tells him with a pitying look.

"What happened?" Viserys asks me noticing my sister's change.

"It's difficult to explain" I tell him with a nostalgic look

"I'm still Lisa, only my personality changed" Lisa tells me looking into my eyes.

"It's good that you remember your past, but don't forget your current family" I tell her bringing her closer to my body with my left hand

"I won't do it future husband" Lisa tells me with a beautiful smile and looking at Rhaenys's reaction

"They are getting married?" Rhaenys asks me with red eyes

"Yes" I responded nervously

"Then you have to marry me too" Rhaenys tells me, tightening her grip on my right arm.

"It seems that in this life I also have to share a husband with my sister" Lisa tells me pinching my waist

"Cof, cof... I'm sorry to interrupt, but what do you need coming to me?" Viserys asks us, and my face heats up from the embarrassment of speaking in front of Viserys.

"We are going to participate in the Combat arena, to have experience in life and death fights" Lisa tells him and continues "We want you to go along with Daenerys, but Lady Ashara can't see that kind of scene. You should stay here, and let Daenerys going with us."

"You can do it, but you must protect her" Viserys tells us giving his consent

"Wait outside for a moment, I have to talk to Viserys alone" I tell them, Lisa leaves after giving me a kiss on the cheek and Rhaenys leaves the room red-faced.

"You have to be careful from now on" Viserys tells me with a smile watching as the door closes behind us.

"Let's put this matter aside, what will you do with Lady Ashara?" I ask him remembering the scene last night

"I will marry her" Viserys answers me with a smile full of joy

"Prince Doran Martell's plans will be for you to marry his daughter, and put Aegon Targaryen on the Iron Throne" I let him know what is happening in Westeros

"What do you think I should do?" Viserys asks me with doubts in his eyes, because he doesn't know what complications turning the Martells against him will bring.

"I only know that I promised you that you will be King, it is your decision to change your plans or not" I tell him with a firm look

"If I am King, will the lords like the change?" Viserys asks me with a serious look.

"You must look after the good of the majority, it doesn't matter what the minority says, unless it is something important" I answer thinking about the different problems that are generated with the change of power

"As I plan to be King, I will follow this path to the end" Viserys assures me with a verbal promise

"I'll start gathering an army soon" I tell him looking at my plans for the future.

"That's good" Viserys tells me putting his palm on my right shoulder and looking at the birds in the window

After talking with Viserys, I joined the others to leave for Meereen with them.

"Let's form a circle holding hands" I tell them, and they each hold onto the hands of those next to them.

In Meereen...

On the boat, a group of ten people suddenly appeared, Daenerys looked at me puzzled.

"He's <<weird (incredible)>> right?" Rhaenys tells them what she thinks it means, I am stunned and Oberyn is coughing from the laugh he let out

"Princess Rhaenys, that word in the Old Tongue means rare, not incredible," Arthur tells her with a twitch at the corner of his lips, and we look at Rhaenys with a red face and look at Oberyn with a frown.

"It's not my fault, Lancel started everything" Oberyn tells her, calming her down and stopping laughing for Rhaenys to calm down.

"It's my retribution, that shows that Karma returns worse to the one that started it all" I tell him with a sad smile

"Come on, to the Arenas, we don't have to waste time" Oberyn tells us, pulling us out of the awkward silence.

(Third person POV)

When they left, they saw a port on the banks of the Skahazadhan river, the Captain looked at them for a moment when they all left the room, but he was used to being ignored his questions. So he did not approach to ask how so many people got to his boat.

"This is the city of Meereen, it is a slave city, we are located north of the east coast of the Bay of the Slaves. Its symbol is the harpy of the ancient empire of Ghis" The Captain presents the information he knows about the city

"We come to fight in the Combat arenas" Lancel tells him so that he does not continue giving information about the city

"Fighting in the Arenas is certain death for you" The Captain tells him with contempt for his interruption

"Shut up and explain how to get there" Oberyn says with an annoyed tone.

"Yes, Prince Oberyn" The Captain tells him and shows them how to get to the Combat arena, also he continues telling them important information about Meereen

Upon reaching the entrance to the city, the Guard stops them and asks them what they are doing in the city.

"We come wager, and fight in the Combat Arenas" Oberyn tells them showing them a sack with gold coins

"Go ahead, come in and have fun" The Guard tells them letting them pass

Before their gaze rises an imposing pyramid in the center of the city, with a monumental bronze harpy at the top. Passing through some streets, Oberyn stops and looks towards a place

"What's going on?" Lancel asks him puzzled

"I just felt like it's been a long time since I've been in that place," Oberyn tells him pointing at the building. Lancel out of curiosity activates his spiritual sense, and immediately deactivates it and looks down with a red face.

"Did you see them?" Oberyn asks in her ear with an evil smile.

"Yes..." Lancel answers with a nervous voice.

"What are you talking about?" Rhaenys asks them as Oberyn pointed to a brothel, that made Lancel's face red.

"It must be a brothel" Lisa answers for them and pinches Lancel's waist with a friendly smile "Don't even think about it" she says with a clear threat

"I won't" Lancel tells her with beads of sweat running down his forehead.

"What a coward," Oberyn says to Lancel with disdain.

"If you go, I'll tell my aunt Ellaria," Rhaenys tells him with a scowl and a look of contempt.

"I won't enter a place like this without her" Oberyn tells her with a serious look.

"It would be better if you didn't talk uncle" Rhaenys tells him with a disgusted look

The others laugh when they see Rhaenys arguing with Oberyn, Lancel looks away and focuses on Lisa's face, fascinated by the seductive smile she has when she meets his eyes.

"Let's continue" Arthur says to the Captain without bothering to pay attention to the exchange of words of the others.

The Captain leads them towards the Pitt of Daznak, the largest and most extravagant of the Fighting pits in Meereen.

"It looks like the Roman coliseum, but in the smaller version" Lancel says looking at the place from the outside

"What city is that coliseum in?" Lisa asks with doubts about not hearing about a place like this.

"It is an empire that became extinct over time, as well as its buildings" Lancel answers with a poker face

"I know your lies, from now on don't lie to me or you'll pay for it" Lisa whispered in his ear with a pleasant voice, which gave Lancel a chill when he noticed that the sweet voice did not accompany the words that she said.

"It's from another world, that's why there are no stories about it" Lancel tells her with a sigh.

"Well, you're not lying, so I have no choice but to believe you this time" Lisa says with a pitying look because Lancel didn't lie anymore, she is also puzzled to hear Lancel about another world

At the entrance they noticed a lot of names engraved on the bricks, Oberyn tells Lancel that if he wants them to engrave his name too

"If yours is by my side Master I don't see any problem" Lancel tells him with a smile

"Don't curse, it's not really going to happen me" Oberyn tells him with a frown

"The names of the gladiators who died in combat are engraved" The Captain tells them, making the others hold their breath

"Oh..." Lancel remembers reading about it.

"Are they coming to watch the fights, or to fight?" The Guard asks them when he sees the group armed with swords and blades.

"He will fight today, they can make him fight monsters too" Oberyn tells them pointing to Lancel

"Do you want me dead Master?" Lancel asks with a frown.

"I should have asked you that question when we fought against those monsters" Oberyn answers with disdain in his eyes.

"My mistake, I'm not going to complain anymore" Lancel tells him, remembering how dangerous it was for the three of them.
