foundation of the city sun and moon
When thinking about the Valyrian Empire, usually its frightening dragons come to mind first, or perhaps its beautiful magical cities, some might think of the incredible beauty of the Valyrian people.
However, what many forget is that Valyria is the largest slave empire in the world, where slaves from all over the world gather and share their knowledge and cultures increasing the power of Valyria
Hundreds of men with chains in their hands walked together, women and children were unchained but still surrounded by armed guards, all heading in one direction, to Namon's base camp.
After the victory, Namon wasted no time, sending soldiers to arrest and take all the wild peoples as slaves across the island, only small tribes living on the extremes of the island of Skagos were still out of reach.
To supply the food for so many slaves, the food brought in would be sufficient for the remaining days of winter, but a fixed source of food must be created.
So Namon ordered the construction of a port, a simple wooden one, enough to produce small fishing boats.
Namon also ordered some animals to be arrested, he will prepare a blood spell and put an attraction spell on the Basque fish, where the fish will be attracted easily and the fishing will be very easy.
The number of people and the construction of the first port was enough for the beginning of the first city on the island.
"husband, have you decided on the name?" Hella
"Now, the name of this city will be sun and moon" Namon
This city is in the extreme south of the island, in the western coastal zone.
"what a simple name, I thought it would be something like the great city of the emperor or the great city of the holy king" Hella
"the sun and moon will always be in the sky, lighting up people's day and night, it's a very profound name" Namon
"So this will be our capital?" Hella
"No, the capital already has its chosen area, it will be in the middle of the island, next to the biggest freshwater river, next to the biggest volcano on the island on top of a huge hill" Namon
At this time the big cities are always close to the sea, but Namon doesn't want that, Skagos is not very big and it will suffice to increase the population and populate all the regions, he wants his capital to become the heart of the kingdom, where the biggest river and the biggest hills meet
It is temporarily impossible to create the city far from the sea, after all the main source of food will be fish, before it manages to create magical protections in the far north, avoiding the low temperature and making the soil fertile
"Big volcanoes, I'm glad it exists, it would be hard to live without feeling the volcanic ash in the air" Hella
"Wife, take care of the slaves, with the children there is no need for severe punishment, I will talk to a slave, he seems to be a tribal leader" Namon
Although Namon supports momentary slavery, he still carries some modern morality, at least with children.
"Ok, these women have great physical strength, it's a waste to just cook, I suggest you train to fish, men can fight and build" Hella
"You decide, if they show capacity, you can leave them responsible for collecting fish"
Namon then went to the area where the male slaves are
----------------------
Theod Stane was carrying wood, it had been more than 10 days since the battle on the hill
He feels even wiser in surrendering, even though he is forced to work, overall his job is less tiring than being a tribal leader, with no responsibilities, he just cuts wood and builds walls
His only concern is that he was separated from his wives and children.
While he was working, Namon arrived
"Theod Stane, leader of the Stane clan, I was surprised to see that one leader chose to surrender and didn't try to revolt, his name is very famous among slaves" Namon
Namon spoke the ancient language, his pronunciation was far from perfect, but he was fully understood, studying with Lyla he became skilled in the ancient language.
Theod is a tall, thin man, however apart from his clothes, he looks different from ordinary savages.
"Better weapons, flying beasts and a well-trained army, fighting didn't seem like much fun" Theod
"Very well, however I still don't understand why he surrendered so easily" Namon
Namon was really suspicious, it is said that savages prefer death to surrender, let alone someone in a position of leadership.
"my clan Stane is descended from the Thenn clan of the far northern mountains beyond the wall, it is customary for the Thenns to have a leader, usually the strongest and wisest among warriors, called a magnar" Theod
Thenn clan, a clan that wears bronze weapons and armor, has a leader who rules the clan's lands, the savage clan most like the nobles south of the wall.
"Although I don't know them, I think they are a very interesting clan" Namon
a clan with noble aristocratic customs, Namon was really interested, maybe he can bring them to Skagos under his power
"It's normal that when a leader surrenders to a ruler he keeps his land and position, I can't do that, but I can give you a better position among the slaves and, in the future, make your Stane clan a clan of men. free on my domain" Namon
Namon wants to give examples to slaves, where obedience and work bring rewards, if slaves hope for freedom, the chances of rebelling and creating problems are smaller, nothing better than a former tribal leader who knows the upbringing of a serf with its noble ruler
"thank you grand master" Theod
Though surrendered, Theod cares for his clan Stane people, if he can rise in rank and hold tight to Namon's feet, his family will have a good future.
"from now on you're a slavemaster, your job will be to stick with Skull and obey his orders, in addition to punishing any slaves who try to revolt" Namon
Placing slaves to punish slaves is the best form of existing division, a tactic widely used by Europeans in the era of slavery, Africa was practically divided while Europeans didn't even have work, it was enough to use African kingdoms to enslave other Africans and in the end, buy the slaves without losing a single european soldier
"Besides, make a simple map with your knowledge of the far north mountains, soon I'll get rid of the cannibals" Namon
Namon has heard of cannibals, he intends to use them to test his magic, fuse animal gene and create some chimeras, both for defense and for work, after all a giant monster with super strength are great in mining
"yes, grandmaster" Theod
"don't call me grandmaster, call me majesty, after completing the map you can go see your wives and children" Namon
"thank you, thank you majesty" Theod
