Chapter 344

Another week later.

He flew above Golden Tooth on his self made broom. The Camouflage cloak as well as the dim light from the stars practically making him invisible even if someone looked up at him.

He took notice of all the guards stationed on the walls.

It seems like some of the men who escaped the 'Slaughter of Greenfield' as the bards were so eloquently calling it, reached Golden Tooth and informed the men about the surprise attack and their total defeat at the hands of the Bolton army.

Once he was sure that he had memorized their pattern, he flew up to one of the tower with the bell that was used as an alarm to alert the garrison if any enemy army attacked them.

Good thing was that there was only one man standing on the tower. Safe in the assumption that no one would attack him.

Which was a fairly good assumption as even the Wyverns or their riders won't be able to reach inside the Tower.

But the man didn't take into account the wizard who could fly on a broom.

He entered the tower and the man was under his control before he could even understand what was going on.

"How many men are garrisoned in this castle?" he asked.

"300." The man replied.

He frowned. That number seemed a bit too low for such an important castle "How many men garrisoned this Castle before the war?"

"1500." The man replied and he nodded.

It meant that Tywin probably took a good deal of the men with him. Probably thinking that no one would be foolish enough to attack the castle.

Which was understandable.

The Castle was built on top of a mountain, had high walls and large towers for raining down arrows upon any enemy army.

He could understand why Golden Tooth earned it's reputation.

With the help of the walls, these 300 men could easily hold back an army of 10,000 men until more reinforcements came to support them.

But with so few men…

Hmm…

Frankly, he didn't really plan to take this Castle. But with how few men were guarding it, he was sorely tempted.

"How many fighting men are there in this castle?" he asked.

"About 500." The man replied "200 more came a few days ago after their defeat at Riverrun."

He nodded "Where does Lord Lefford lives."

"In the 4th room of the 3rd floor of the Main Keep." The man replied "Lord Lefford has gone to Lord Tywin. Lady Alysanne rules in his absence."

He nodded and covered himself with the camouflage before obliviated the man and left the tower.

—————

The woman was sleeping in the large and furnished room could be no one else but this Lady Alysanne Lefford that the guard told him about.

Using Homenum Revelio spell to make sure that there was no one else in near vicinity, he closed the door behind him and the cast a sound barrier around the room.

Then he walked up to the woman.

He reached her bedside and took out his wand… only to be surprised when the woman took out a dagger from under her pillow and lunged at him.

Even surprised as he was, the woman's inexperience showed as her surprise attack was both slow and lousy.

He easily caught her hands and with a twist and cry of pain, the dagger clattered to the ground.

"Guards! GUARDS!!! HELP!!!" the woman shouted and he let out a sigh of relief.

If she had shouted the moment he entered the room then the whole castle would have heard her.

But with the Sound barrier in place, her voice won't leave the room.

That didn't make it pleasant.

He pointed the wand at the woman and casted "Imperio."

The woman went silent as once, her expression returning to a calm one "You're Lady Alysanne Lefford?" he asked.

"I am." She replied.

"Are there any secret passageways underneath the castle?" he asked.

The woman nodded and told him.
