Vit pulled a chair to the desk and asked Eamonn to sit down. After Eamonn sat down, he took the scroll and read the contents carefully:
"I'm not sure about this, because these scrolls were copied from Blackwall Castle, and the things recorded on them are too old to be verified. If you want to see the originals, you have to go to the library of Blackwall Castle, where
It used to be an outpost of the Valyrian Empire. It has never been destroyed by war since its establishment, so it retains many things from the old era.
However, the residents in the Black Wall claim to be of ancient blood and are indeed pure Valyrians, so they are extremely xenophobic. Outsiders, civilians and foreigners are not allowed to enter the Black Wall. Only those invited by people in the city can enter.
."
"Back then, my parents were looking for a Valyrian bride of pure blood for Prince Rhaegar, so they were killed in a storm in the strait. Even the body could not be found." Witte thought of what happened more than ten years ago.
"And what about the 40 Dragon Kings on this scroll?"
"This is true. There are many nobles in the Valyrian Empire, and they also have dragon knights. However, there are only 40 families that master dragon hatching, cultivation and magic. They are called Dragon King families. This also represents the ruling power in the empire.
, the Targaryen family can only be regarded as the last among the 40 dragon king families." Aemon also told the truth and did not put any flattery on the Targaryen family.
"The book I read in the Red Keep also said that the Velaryon family on Tidehead Island had dragon knights back then, but the dragon hatching was all done by the Targaryen family themselves." After speaking, Witte took out another one.
A scroll was handed to Aemon.
"Then what is written in this scroll is that the Valyrian Empire started with shepherds and had fourteen volcanic peaks?"
The sky gradually turned dark, and Maester Aemon lost his sight. He held the scroll very close to his eyes, and Wirt used a magic light spell to illuminate him.
"Magic! It seems that the description of Valyrian magic in the scroll is very true." Aemon did not answer Witte's question first. He had heard countless rumors of magic, but in the end he only believed what he saw.
.Now I have come to a conclusion after seeing Werther's magic.
Witte: "I also believe that it is impossible for all the records about Valyria to contain magic in books from various places, and I am quite certain of its authenticity."
Aemon: "As for the origin of Valyria, our ancestors originated from the shepherd tribe more than five thousand years ago. It is okay to say that they originated from the shepherds. It is also said that the ancestors obtained dragon eggs and dragons from the Fourteen Fire Peaks.
Domestication methods."
"I've also seen these in the books in the academy." Witte recalled.
Aemon looked at Werther: "But when I was a child, I read some books about the Dragon King family in the library of Dragonstone. Later, my brother wanted to hatch dragon eggs, and these books were brought to the Summer Hall by my brother. What happened next
You all know that the Summer Hall was destroyed by fire, and my brother also died in the fire."
"Can you tell me about the content in the book?" Witte asked.
Aemon recalled while saying: "In the Doomsday Catastrophe, most of the 40 Dragon King families were destroyed, but there were still three families that escaped the disaster because they were not in Valyria, including the Targaryens, but these
It was the period of the empire's demise. In the early days of the empire, there were not as many as 40 families.
There are many volcanoes on the Valyrian Peninsula, but only the Fourteen Fire Peaks are the richest in minerals, and they were not mined until the fall of Valyria. And according to the profile of the Dragon King family I have read, it dates back to 5,000 years ago.
Years ago, it was true that there were only 14 Dragon King families at the beginning, and the Fourteen Fire Peaks were the territories of these families, on a first-come, first-served basis.
In the early days of the empire, there were only 14 dragon king families, so I deduce that these 14 dragon kings probably had a common father. After his death, power was distributed to each of his children, allowing the empire to implement a parliamentary system. After all, who would take down the powerful dragon?
and power to outsiders!"
Witte thought about it: "Analytically, it is indeed possible. When the parliamentary system was implemented five thousand years ago, this dear man could give birth to 40 direct children, and there would not be so many dragons. A family without dragons would decline sooner or later, and it would be impossible to inherit it for 5,000 years.
.
And like the Targaryen family, there will be split families and illegitimate children. If a split family is like the Valyrian family, the illegitimate children can also become a new family if they perform meritorious services, such as Baratheon. So in these 5,000 years, from 14
It makes sense for the Dragon King to develop into 40 Dragon Kings."
Aemon didn't care what Werther said about his ancestors. He would have cared about being the king long ago. He went on to say:
"Don't you think it's a coincidence that the 14 Dragon King ancestors occupied the most fertile Fourteen Fire Peaks? So I have another inference. They didn't find the dragon eggs at the 14 Fire Peaks, but the 14 Dragon Kings got them somewhere first.
After getting the dragon eggs, we occupied the Fourteenth Fire Peak and hatched them there."
Werther was not surprised: "I also read some books by maesters in the city, and the books also wrote about the Valyrian magic spells that control the fourteen fire peaks, but the first time the dragon kings hatched dragon eggs, this was too...
It has been too long and there is no way to verify it, so now there are various inferences. What else is written in the introduction of Dragon King?"
Aemon: "According to tradition in Valyria, each unclaimed land can be named by the surname of the occupying family, so each of the fourteen fire peaks actually has a name."
"Can you tell me about it?" Witte was very curious. This is an ancient secret that is not found in many books. Really, only the Dragon King family has it.
"I read the book decades ago. I have forgotten some of the surnames of the 14 ancestral dragon kings. I can roughly recall a few: Zaclithos, Wood, and the surname of the ancestor of our Targaryen family, Azdar." Witte felt that these names were familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them before. "The more powerful the Dragon King family is, the more concentrated they live in the capital of Valyria. When the doomsday catastrophe comes, not one of them escapes, but is on the edge."
The family escaped the disaster, but now it is difficult to find this information."
Aemon: "During the thousands of years that the empire lasted, a lot of knowledge was divided, and illegitimate children and slaves were taken out. The rumored founder of the Faceless Men was a former slave miner in the Valyrian volcano mine.
, he secretly learned the knowledge and magic of Valyria, and after escaping to Braavos, he founded the Faith of the Many-Faced God and the House of Black and White.
The arrogant dragon kings of the empire thought that he was like a mouse learning some rudimentary tricks, and simply ignored him and allowed him to develop. So if you want to explore the history of Valyria, the best place is in Valyria.
Ruins of Valyria and the Black Wall, but you’d better not miss other historic places, many of which originated from the Valyrian Empire.”
"This time I am traveling to the Eastern Continent, and one of my destinations is to explore the ruins of Valyria. This is a place that all explorers long for. I happen to pass by Volantis, and Blackwall Fortress can be visited on the way." p>
Aemon poured cold water on Witte: "Then you have to be careful. After the destruction of Valyria, it was filled with volcanic lava, miasma and plague, and many people with greyscale were exiled there to die.
, they will attack you like wild beasts for food."
"Thank you very much Maester Aemon for answering my question. I will pay attention to it."
It was getting late. After getting the information he wanted, Werther stopped disturbing Eamonn and returned to his residence. When he arrived at his residence, he exchanged some magic experiences with Ye Zi, but Ye Zi and the others all had knowledge passed down orally from the previous generation, and there was no system yet.
theory of sex, but Werther's theory of magical knowledge has a greater effect on her.
