Summer Shelter

Lord Fell, Lord Cafferen, and Lord Grandison were gathered together to mourn Robert's downfall to win the land for their houses.

Lord Fell: We must march now to Storm's End and take it, if we do so the king will give us great Honor and our houses will be the strongest

Lord Cafferen: we have between 5 to 6 thousand soldiers without counting the peasants, and resources for a few days until the Tyrells send their troops and we lower the damn fort.

Grandison: What about Robert's allied houses?

Fell: When the stronghold is besieged, they will kneel or starve.

In the middle of the meeting they begin to hear the noise of war horns sounding,

Cafferen: What the hell are they attacking us, but since Robert still hasn't moved his sworn ones! He said, alarmed by the situation, he ran to the window to see who was attacking, he saw only a small group of soldiers with a Green banner with a Golden Tree, what the hell is the Trant house attacking us?

Fell: They must be idiots, they hardly have the strength to attack us, they have 300-400 soldiers, we have 5,000 to go out and confront them.

Grandison: I will go down to organize the attack, I cry out and the 3 went to organize the troops, what was lost were the siege weapons prepared and armed with incendiary projectiles and the lines of archers preparing to shoot, 5 catapults pointing at the doors of Refuge summer, 3 trebuchets fixed to the castle, 200 archers with the sight.

The plan was simple, they wait for the 3 fools to come out with their army and all the fire will be concentrated on them as soon as they come out, the casualties will be massive, and the archers will not stop shooting at any time and the horns will continue to sound to produce a psychological effect in the soldiers, what they don't expect is Dulan sneaking into the castle to catch Lord Fell's Son, Silver Axe.

Start of the siege

Crais Deputy Commander of Infantry Forces POV

The man was right, they all rushed out the door, I raise my hand and give the order to fire, and the archers start rain of arrows on the enemies, I see how the first ones fall, raising the green flag and the catapults and ballistae, they open fire on the summer shelter doors, I proceed to blow the war horn and the others follow me, there would be between 1,500 to 2,000 enemy casualties, they had not yet touched our first safe line, where the first soldiers would receive the initial charge, they were known as the bloody walls, they would stop the charge and riddle them with their spears or swords if they reached that formation we had to defend the 4 flanks so that the formation did not collapse, the archers had to have their time to shoot we could not let the enemies arrive at them.

Dulan Pov inside the castle

Dulan is walking steadily in the castle looking for the lords, with his great hammer he is mashing meat with the enemy soldiers, he is a monster, some shout, they try to attack among several, but Dulan, he only has to shake his hammer and flowers of blood, parts of brain and bone will stick to the walls, it gets closer to the salt were the lords, there are only 9 guards left who run scared when they see the Dwarf bathed in blood and meat,

Dulan: Seriously cowards, he sees the door and proceeds to hit it with his hammer, the door goes flying and crashes into the wall, Boom and it falls apart. What we have here, exclaims three little hidden traitors.

Fell: Stop fucking dwarf who let you into this castle, and what the hell are they doing attacking us?

Dulan: Seriously, are they idiots or what, the authority was given to me by my Lord and I'm going to end a fucking war, and if you didn't see it's a war, stupid girl, now, the lady gave me 2 options, you kneel to Robert OR the 2, which is my favorite, I'll turn you to mush like all your soldiers, and I hope for everyone's sake they choose 2.

Fell: Fuck Robert and your lady we are loyal to the crown. He exclaims, although his companions had fear on their faces and denied his words

Dulan: Well haha ​​we have an idiot with a bit of gut so we need to make an example. He quickly shakes his war hammer and breaks his legs, follows his arms and finally his chest, the screams are heard throughout the summer shelter, and several soldiers rush to see what happens in fear, the soldiers will always remember what they saw in the corridor full of broken bodies, blood everywhere and the Dwarf who walked with a great war hammer and Lord Fell's head taken by his hair was an image taken from the same darkest nightmares the dwarf laughed and said lord fell dead, kneel before Robert, like his lords Cafferen and Gradison, and perhaps all will be saved. They threw down their swords and wept in fear.

Several days after the battle, Robert is seen on horseback waiting for a great battle, but what he will find will leave him surprised.

Robert POV

Cursed traitors gather to attack for the back I will kill them all he shouted riding his horse we approached SumerHall

They were approaching the Estival refuge, Robert saw a person sitting at the door, there were clear blood marks from a recent siege, as he approached he saw Dulan, and a cloth bag on the floor, Robert wondered what had happened and decided to talk

Robert: Dulan, the trant house decided to reveal to me, he said with a little fear, he knew the dwarf, his strength or stature was no joke.

Dulan: Or go down a peg guys, here you go, he throws the bloody bag at him and inside Lord Fell's head, Lady Trant sent us a long time ago to defeat these idiots, we've been waiting for you to arrive for 4 days, the boy on the wall is Silver ax the son of Fell, and that's Lord Cafferen and Lord Gradison, let's say um, make them bend the knee to you.

Robert was white as wax, he did not understand how this happened, he regained control of himself and went to see what was happening. Trant troops were guarding the rebel weapons, inside he saw the siege weapons, he saw Lord Cafferen trembling in fear as he looked at Dulan and asked him what happened.

Cafferen: He's a monster, he just got into the damn castle, it wasn't a fight, it was a massacre, he moved his mallet and a soldier lost his head or was reduced to a puddle of blood and flesh, the beast is told by those who survived for surrender, Fell broke his legs, first and then each arm, the man howled in pain and cried, the soldiers who came to see what was happening trembled at the door, they did not want to enter, between the howls of pain and the sound of those damn horns and drums, during the 400 sieges only 400 took 6000 men. The man trembled at the whole story Robert saw this, he was also afraid and asked.

Dulan your lady sent you for what exactly?

Dulan: My lady sent us to look after his ass even though she didn't want to if I'm being honest we saw several ships of the Redwyne fleet stalking the islands with pirates and slavers poor Davos is protecting the island how can he call some friends to help with the island about 2000 troops that when I commented in my letters about the lady decided to join her by an ancient and unbreakable oath to come and help us but I don't know when beside my lady sent us so that no one kills him on the way and advise him that if he sees Mace Tyrell fight with everything you got but if you see Randyll Tarly doesn't fight that man is a warrior in his own right.

Robert nods his head and asks, will your soldiers join us in the war?

Dulan: Lady Trant practically forced us to come, Robert being honest if we lose the island we will lose the only thing I can call Home, look at me nowhere would accept me or the other people on that island, Davos only has 15 ships to defend against a fleet of hundreds, and there are only 100 people to defend the lady. We do not have enough troops to defend Storm Bastion, added to the other plan that was devised to supply food and others to your brother Stannis, if there is a siege that will surely happen and they will have a naval blockade of hundreds of ships.

Robert put on a gloomy face, the poor woman understood, she risked everything to help him, but why? I ask.

Dulan: For the people, Robert, think of the people how many great lords there are you can count them as a handful, but countless ordinary people and those who suffer the most, hunger, poverty, children who are orphaned, mothers who have to sell their bodies to give her children a little bread, which my lady asks of you, all those people who want to can go to the island, she will welcome them as much as possible.

Robert was impressed, the woman was the definition of Honor and Duty for the people, but he was sad he knew that they would surely die defending their home.

All right, Dulan, those people who want to go to the island will be allowed, and Lady Trant's son, little Adrian, to come with him.

Dulan: okay, the boy is safe, when he turns four, all my friends and I decided to start his training, he will learn everything to be a fearsome warrior, mastery of all possible weapons, haha ​​if these soldiers are scary imagine the Lord when he is 10 years learning with us.

Robert laughs at that, the boy will be a beast and with the character of his mother, he will be a good lord.

Dulan: Well enough of the talk, boy it's time you decide to do with the remaining 3900 lords men and their heads.

Robert: Since they've bent the knee they'll join us, send ravens Haven fallen for Trant troops, let the storm be heard roaring for vengeance he yells.

Pov. Adrian

Indeed, the formations we train, lead to superiority on the battlefields, Elentari prepares the soldiers with 300 heavy cavalries, sends the best duelist we have, sends them to Stone Sept, when the enemies are looking for Robert, charge with everything and break the ranks, but you have to wait for the Stark troops, you will then ask to retreat to the island.

Elentari: understood sir, the best duelist would be Ashen Stormsong, excellent with two elven swords, fast and strong in any order for him.

Adrian: yes, behead every soldier you find, we need to make a name for ourselves as fearsome soldiers, all the plans are ready for you to go to the tower of joy and I go to the red fort.

Elentari: If my lord 2 rocs prepared with the mounts and cabins, you will open the breach in red keep to bring the children to the island.

Adrián: yes it is the safest way to bring them. you force them to come if you need to sedate them bring them.

Elentari laughs and agrees to prepare sleeping pills to bring them, I also prepare potions for injuries and illnesses.
