Reborn in Valyria: King of Dragons
Jay, a simple grocery store owner son, who tragically passed away due to sleeping with his laptop, which overheated and caused the battery to explode. However, he awoke in a mysterious realm of darkness and met an entity named Chaos. After a brief exchange, Jay was granted three wishes. He chose to be born into the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire" and gained partial powers akin to Cadis Etrama Di Raizel, though using them came at the cost of his life force. Jay found himself reborn as an infant in a Valyrian family with striking features distinct from Valyrian. Confusion and heated arguments filled his new surroundings. He was later taken outside, discovering he was in Old Valyria, a land of dragons and towering buildings. The father summoned a dragon and engulfed Jay in flames, but instead of harm, Jay felt an unusual sensation and remained unscathed. The family was bewildered by Jay's unique appearance, with black hair and red eyes, unlike the Valyrians. Jay drifted into slumber, leaving many unanswered questions in this unfamiliar world.
Chapter 16:"Secrets beyond Mortal reach"
Who are these adversaries that can make even the true dragons, or the gods of the land, cautious? There are only a few things that can truly threaten these powerful beings.
Firstly, there's the creator of the world. He was the one who created and cursed the true dragons when his initial creations failed him. Because Instead of protecting the realm, they brought destruction.
Secondly, there are the nature spirits, often referred to as the Old Gods in Westeros. These ancient and mysterious entities hold immense power and influence over the natural world just like true dragons.
Lastly, there are the invaders. They proclaim themselves as deities in the mortal realm and have gathered a following of worshipers among humans when true dragons cursed by Creator. Their beliefs and actions have led to violence and chaos, threatening the world's stability. Dragons once tried to oppose them, but the curse placed upon them made it challenging. Some dragons fell in battle, while others were forced to retreat. With time, the world has grown more corrupt, edging closer to destruction, and it seems the creator has turned away from it.
Is the Creator the only god in this world? Did the Creator destroy Old Valyria? Hasn't the Creator abandoned the world? Yes, the Creator is the only god in the world. However, there are also self-proclaimed gods as well.
So did Valyria's god destroy Old Valyria? Then, is the Valyrian God also an invader who self-proclaimed as a god? No, there are the 14 true dragons who gave Valyrians the ability to tame lesser dragons so that they could stop invaders from getting stronger. But Valyrians had no bounds to their greed, and slowly they deviated from their purpose. So, they caused more destruction than they helped. Why would true dragons destroy their own resting place and their own race or kill themselves? That's how the records tell it, but they are not the ones who destroyed Valyria. They did give Daenys the Dreamer dragon dreams about the doom of Valyria, so that some of their descendants survive the destruction. But Valyrians are known for their arrogance. They didn't believe Daenys the Dreamer had dragon dreams when they painstakingly worshipped their gods by sacrificing and fasting as an act of devotion to have dragon dreams, even to the point of exiling her whole family from Old Valyria.
Then who is behind destruction of Valyria?
The Faceless Men, worshippers of the Many-Faced God, also known as Him of Many Faces, are the ones behind the destruction of Valyria. The city was built on 14 volcanoes known as the Fourteen Flames, which were heavily mined for resources. The extensive mining made the volcanoes increasingly unstable. To maintain control, the Valyrians employed fire mages and sorcerers who used magic to stabilize the volcanoes.
One fateful day, all the volcanoes erupted simultaneously, leading to the catastrophic event known as the Doom. The Faceless Men orchestrated the likely simultaneous assassinations of the fire mages responsible for maintaining the stability of the volcanoes. This coordinated effort caused the Doom.
After the Doom, other invaders took measures to make the remains of Valyria inhospitable and dangerous, using their power to seal off the land. They sought to prevent any living humans from entering Valyria and also reduced the availability of magic, causing the true dragons to struggle to survive without it. However, the situation has changed with the emergence of a new Dragon King.
