There is also a half-burned piece of white wax on the table, which is silently contributing its own light, dispersing the darkness of the entire room.
"The process of dispelling darkness and restoring light is bound to be full of ups and downs..."
"And sacrifice."
The woman was sitting at her desk, suddenly talking to herself for no apparent reason, not knowing what she was referring to.
In front of her was a silver-plated bronze mirror polished by exquisite craftsmen in Myr, and in the mirror Melisandre's eyes fell on half of the burning white wax on the table.
The flame... is beating.
The white wax was getting smaller little by little under the firelight, turning into droplets of wax and falling on the candlestick below.
"Your sacrifice will not be remembered by the world."
"but..."
While Melisandre was whispering something softly.
Noisy footsteps suddenly came from outside the door of the room, and then these footsteps got closer and closer.
boom--
The door to the woman's room was kicked open, and a group of guards wearing armor and holding swords rushed in regardless of whether Melisandre was sleeping or not.
Then the captain of the guard pointed his finger at Melisandre and said loudly.
"Follower of R'hllor, Lady Melisandre, you have been arrested on charges of murdering Lady Mirri Maz Duur, advisor to magic and the occult!"
When reciting the crime, he emphasized the followers of R'hllor loudly, and then continued.
"Now, all I need is for you to plead guilty and obey the law!"
As the guard captain's words fell.
Wow——
A group of soldiers surrounded him.
However, no one dared to come up and arrest the red-robed witch directly, because word had spread in the castle that this evil red-robed witch used fire magic to burn Mi alive in order to join the castle and monopolize power.
Ms. Li.
People are in awe of things they cannot understand, such as the existence of magic and witchcraft.
Therefore, these soldiers only dared to surround Melisandre, but did not dare to actually arrest her. They were also afraid that they would turn into a ball of fire and be burned alive.
However, after hearing the accusations and the accusations recited by the guards, Melisandre looked very calm while sitting on the chair, as if she already knew it. She raised her eyelids slightly and glanced at everyone present casually.
Then he closed his robe and stood up from the chair.
Wow——
The red-robed witch acted carelessly, but the soldiers surrounding her were frightened and took a few steps back.
"you..."
"What are you going to do!"
The guard captain who just recited Melisandre's crime also drew his sword at this moment, looking at the other party with a wary face, and his voice was a little nervous.
He was a guard in the hall during the day. He heard with his own ears that the other party blasphemed the Seven Gods and called the Seven Gods false gods. Therefore, after receiving the order to arrest Melisandre, he thought of taking the opportunity to give this woman
A lesson.
However, I still felt a little nervous when I actually stood in front of the witch.
However, looking at the nervous expressions on the faces of the surrounding soldiers, Melisandre still had a nonchalant expression, and then calmly shook her head and spoke.
"I can be taken away by you."
"But I do not recognize the crimes that were imposed on me."
After hearing what Melisandre said, the guard captain was about to reprimand.
"you..."
However, he was interrupted by the words of the red-robed witch.
"And, I guess Her Royal Highness the Princess didn't let me wear these things either."
The woman with long red hair raised her chin slightly, and according to what she was looking at, she saw the chains and shackles held by the guards.
"this..."
Melisandre's words made all the guards present look at each other, and finally their eyes fell on the captain.
"Did His Highness say so?"
And this Andal warrior's face changed back and forth several times from green to red.
"this…"
He thought about what Her Royal Highness the Princess specifically said when she issued this order...
Finally, she raised her head and looked at Melisandre, with a hint of fear in her eyes.
Because...the reality is generally not bad as what she said.
Although Rhaenys ordered Melisandre to be arrested for murder, she specifically named her and wanted to give her preferential treatment. The name of arrest was actually house arrest in another place.
But how did this woman know this?
He remembered that he was the only one there at that time.
Or...is this the power of witchcraft and magic?
The guard captain's expression was gloomy and he looked at Melisandre with more fear.
Finally, he faced the eyes of his brothers, then gritted his teeth and waved his hands.
"Just do as she says!"
"take away!"
Then several guards lowered their weapons and the shackles used to arrest criminals.
As expected, Melisandre did not resist and allowed the soldiers to take her out of the room. She was then put into a carriage and the curtains on both sides were lowered. Finally, the carriage drove out of the castle overnight and took this girl away.
The red witch was imprisoned in the prison of Andalus.
boom--
The iron door of the prison was closed and the lock was re-inserted.
...
And in the castle.
At this moment, Rhaenys stood quietly in the darkness alone, feeling a little confused.
"How...how could I do this?"
She didn't know if it was Melisandre who killed Mirri, but she felt that this possibility was unlikely, because the two people had no grudges, so how could they suddenly kill each other as soon as they arrived.
However, Rhaenys didn't know what was in her mind, and she finally agreed to her teacher's advice by some strange combination of circumstances.
Someone was sent to arrest the red-robed witch and put her in prison.
Because this can make everyone believe that people are not killed by Balerion, so people will not be afraid or even hate it...
However, Rhaenys never thought that by doing this, she actually believed that Mirri died at the hands of Balerion.
She also didn't know why Mili appeared near the dragon in the middle of the night. Maybe... maybe she was just passing by?
Or is she a little curious about dragons and wants to touch them?
Then Balerion thought it was an enemy. It didn't actually want to harm her, maybe it just wanted to play a game with Mirri?
"I..."
The girl with long brown hair squatted on the ground, feeling as if her brain was about to explode.
A bold idea came to my mind over and over again, but in the end I couldn't make up my mind.
She has always lived under the wings created by Viserys for them, and now that she has left him, she does not even have the courage to make a major decision independently.
Hiss~
And at this time.
Rhaegal roared happily and then jumped on her shoulders, nudging Rhaenys's cheek with his head.
The girl's heart softened instantly, she let out a long breath, and gently touched the ferocious scales on Rego's body with her hand.
Then he raised his hand and patted Balerion hard.
The black dragon tilted his head slightly, but whether he didn't avoid it or didn't want to avoid it, he was slapped hard on the head by Renes.
Roar...
Then he let out a low growl of dissatisfaction.
"Hmph, you guy."
"We'll wait until Viserys comes back. Don't give me any more trouble during this period!"
...
Later.
More than half a month has passed.
beep...
With the sound of trumpets, the Andalus Legion finally returned to their hometown.
