Chapter 257

He subtly took out his wand and cast an Imperio on Arya's horse before me moved toward her.

He mussed her head and she ducked away and then glared at him.

He chuckled and said "You don't need to worry about my Lady Arya." She bristled at being called a lady and his smirk widened "Do you not remember who these two are." He said while pointing at both Baka and Varko. Arya eyes widened as she remembered the seen of slaughter that Baka had caused in Winterfell.

"Ygritte is the greatest archer in probably the whole continent if not the world. And these twenty guards. They are the best of the best that my lands could produce." He smiled "And you of course know about me. Don't worry. We'll deal with those Lannister men and come back as soon as possible."

Arya looked conflicted and gritted her teeth "What if you don't?"

"Aww look at that Domeric. She's so worried about you. That's so cuteee." Ygritte said as if she was talking about a puppy and Arya sent a glare toward his lover who merely smirked back.

"Alright. Enough talk. We still need to prepare for the enemy." He said "It is time for you to leave Arya."

"But…"

"No buts." He said and smacked her horse while sending a mental command to not stop until it had gone a few miles ahead.

With how hasty this whole attack had been, he was sure that she and the Stark guards would not run across any more bandits up ahead.

"Should we prepare then." Ygritte said and he nodded.

"Set up the Caltrops and the Palisades. I'll dig the trenches and cover them up." He said as his personal guards took out their own Bottomless pouches and started taking out the Caltrops and the Palisades and started setting them up in the main road "Also set up a line of Wildfire behind the battleground. I don't want any of them to escape."

He on the other hand, used magic to transfigure multiple large holes in the road before he created a larger one just before them and then covered all of them up to look like normal road. The Lannister men had already covered a great deal of ground by now so he turned to his men.

"Climb down from your horses and set up a line before the larger trench." He said and his guards quickly followed the order "Take out the pump action crossbow. Fill in the magazines and be ready."

Then he turned to Ygritte "I don't want any of them running away from the battle. Kill any who tries."

Ygritte nodded and prepared her bow and arrows.
