[Third person POV]
The next day, from outside the city the voice of Quazzar was heard asking for a one on one fight against Lancel, everyone on top of the city wall was silent, waiting for the answer he will give them.
"Will you go to fight?" Daenerys asks him in a low voice, as she takes his hand.
"Yes, I need to take his life to awaken the dragons" Lancel replied softly, and caressed her cheek before climbing down from the wall.
Everyone outside the city waited for Lancel's answer, but they watched the city gates open, and the young man they saw at the top of the wall walking towards them
"So you accepted your death" Drogo tells him with a cruel look, as he grips his arakh tighter.
"The combat hasn't even started, and you are singing victory before its time" Lancel tells him, with a provocative smile
Suddenly Lancel feels around him a restriction, and asks the system what is going on, the system answers him that around him there is a field that blocks his power of teleportation, this magic was cast last night by that sorceress
'Really?' Lancel raises an eyebrow, as he is amazed at the magic the maegi used.
Drogo seeing Lancel distracted launches into the attack, he recovers quickly from his surprise and focuses on dodging the arakh, jumping to the side, and in the next moment unsheathing his Dawn sword.
All the Dothrakis cheer for their Khal, seeing him attack with ferocity, and Lancel just defending himself from all the attacks. Daenerys calmly watched the fight unfold, for she knows what Lancel is capable of in combat
"My Queen, are you worried about my King?" Skahaz asks her with a serious look, concentrating on the peaceful countenance Daenerys had on her face, which made him unhappy, for it seems that the young man is stronger than he shows at first sight
"No, he's just proving how strong the Khal is" Daenerys replies with an annoyed expression, as it distracted her for a moment from watching the Khal's Bloodriders
Jhogo was looking uneasy, so he stepped forward a few paces as the rest of the Kos cheered their Khal on. Daenerys, seeing that he was a few steps ahead, took her bow and prepared an arrow in case he interrupted her husband's fight.
Drogo soon realized that Lancel was not seriously fighting against him, and distanced himself from Lancel's guard. He stared at him with a look of amusement, this annoyed him so much that the veins in his body enlarged, as he held his arakh tighter.
"You should change your weapon, that one you have won't hold much before it breaks" Lancel told him with a smile, seeing how splintered the Khal's weapon was.
Drogo looked at his arakh, and indeed there were many splinters in his weapon, so he asked one of his Bloodriders to give him his arakh, Jhogo immediately passed him Rakharo's arakh. Mirri had a different light in her eyes, after seeing that her wish was about to be fulfilled, she felt that soon it would be her revenge, as she saw that the other Kos were inside the circle of magic she made at night by Khal's orders.
<Warning, the host is in danger, circle of magic has properties dark magic, advised to stay away from>.
Lancel upon hearing this, activated his spiritual sense and was amazed to see a black aura in the form of a circle around him, and that this aura reached Drogo's Bloodriders.
"Let's move the fight to another place" Lancel comments before moving out of the circle, Drogo follows him and exits the circle, as well as Jhogo, Aggo, Rakharo. While his other Kos stayed where they were, among them was Jhoqo, who was missing one of his hands and was watching the fight with anger on his face.
Daenerys seeing them move to another side, followed his steps to another part of the wall where he was facing Lancel.
"My Queen, will you send some of the warriors to support our King?" Jorah approached Daenerys and asked her, as he stood in awe of her beauty in the morning light.
"No need, he can come and go as he pleases" Daenerys refuses to send warriors to protect Lancel. Hearing this Jorah has a half smile, for he thinks Daenerys does not like her husband.
Drogo thinks that the maegi's magic still works in the place Lancel chose, since Mirri did not signal to him that she stepped out of the circle of the magic's effect.
Mirri looked at Lancel with irritation, after seeing that he made the Khal get out of his magic circle, but seeing the person she hated the most in it, she decided to activate the death spell.
Lancel seeing the dark aura increase decided to finish the fight faster, and use the sorceress to hatch the dragon eggs they had in their possession.
Drogo attacks Lancel, and while waiting for him to continue defending himself, he is surprised to see that he dodges and attacks one of his legs, immediately he feels that he loses his balance, and before falling Lancel places a hand on his forehead, while he makes a wound near his neck.
The Bloodriders watching the fight are surprised to see their Khal falling to the ground with blood coming out of his neck, Jhogo seeing this gets angry and decides to attack Lancel, suddenly in front of him an arrow sticks near where he was going to step.
Lancel suddenly raised his hand, and pointed a finger to where he could see the Bloodriders that did not accompany those who were present. These Bloodriders fell to the ground, and grabbed their throats as if they could not breathe, in a few minutes they stopped fighting and gave way to death.
The Dothrakis upon seeing this strange occurrence dropped their weapons and knelt before their new Khal, the Bloodriders who were near the fight between Lancel and Drogo followed the example of all the Dothraki warriors
"What are you doing, get up and kill that demon?" Quazzar shouts angrily to the Dothrakis warriors near him
"Kill the former Great Masters of Meereen, and bring that woman to me" Lancel orders his new vassals to kill the Great Masters and bring Mirri.
When she was brought into his presence, Lancel could see the pallor of her countenance. He told the Bloodriders to bring him wood to make a funeral pile.
"All Dothrakis deserve death" Mirri tells Lancel in the common tongue of Westeros.
"I won't deny that most of them deserve it, but we live in a cruel world, where I can only protect the people I really care about, I can't look out for the good of people I don't know" Lancel tells her, with a face devoid of emotion
"But what about the innocents, can't you avenge their death by killing all those guilty of the massacre of my people" Mirri says to Lancel with anger, seeing that he shows no empathy for her suffering.
"I am not your god, I cannot protect those in need, I cannot do good without first doing evil. If I heed your words, what will happen to the orphaned children, do you want to see them die like those men" Lancel is shown what Mirri did to the Khal's Bloodriders.
Their bodies were turning a dark color from the magic used in their deaths, Mirri looks at him with a questioning face to know what he means by pointing out what she did
"Nothing matters more to you than vengeance at this moment, but I can tell you that even if you kill all the Dothrakis you will still suffer, and the justice you seek is nothing more than the same thing they did to your people" Lancel looks at her with a trace of melancholy in his gaze
"What do you know of my suffering, what do you know of what they did to the women of my people, to the children?" Mirri looks at him cruelly, knowing she has failed to kill the main culprits, and now more regrets not killing this insolent young man
"I don't know your suffering, but I can see that you want others to feel it, I don't know what they did to the women of your village, but I can get an idea of how badly they treated them, what about the children, they surely have them captive to sell them as slaves" Lancel tells her, and thinks for a moment whether to continue with his plan or change it for a moment
"What are you trying to do?" Mirri looks at him with fear as she senses the aura of death that is brewing around Lancel.
"I am going to give you two options, recognize me as your King or not" Lancel gives her the options, and waits for her decision. Mirri thinks about 'why' this choice, but decides on taking the first option, as she can feel traces of life still in the Khal's body
"My King" Mirri says to him bowing to the ground as the Dothrakis did.
"Prepare the blood ritual, you can not take revenge against the other Dothrakis, but you can do it with the Khal" Lancel says to Mirri, and watches as she shows a euphoric smile knowing that she can finally take revenge on the man who brought misfortune to her people.
