Game of Thrones: Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon: Dying of Dawn Chapter 282: Two months and a few days later.
Viserys rode the dragon back to Pentos.
Now the whole city is plunged into a festive atmosphere.
Because this is the only war in Pentos in the eighty or ninety years since the last war between Braavos and Pentos.
And it won the first war in the past one or two hundred years.
The Pentos people had their backs broken by Braavos, and they never thought they could win the war.
Therefore, this time they defeated the Dothraki attack and drove away these bandits, which greatly boosted the morale in Pentos city.
The citizens celebrated enthusiastically, and the refugees whose homes were destroyed by the Dothraki were gradually returning to their hometowns.
Everyone was grateful to the Targaryens for defeating the Dothraki, and there was even public discussion that the title of Prince of Pentos should be given to King Viserys.
King of the Andals, Rhoynar and the First Men, legitimate ruler of the Seven Kingdoms and guardian of the realm, Lord of Andalos, Prince of Pentos, crowned 'true dragon' by the Seven Gods Viserys Targaryen III
.
Viserys' current title is too long. 'Coronation of the Seven Gods' is a title he once publicly promoted, so it should be added to his official title. It also represents the beliefs of the Seven Gods.
Among other religious beliefs, Red God believers promoted that Viserys was the reincarnation of Azor Ahai and would hold the 'Lightbringer' to dispel darkness and save the world.
Later, for some unknown reason, he was passed around and promoted as the divine son of R'hllor, the Lord of Light, and was eventually called the 'Son of the Sun' or 'Lord of the Sun'.
The Rhoynar people believe in all living things. They believe that Viserys has received the "blessing of the Holy Spirit", so he can be victorious in every battle.
As for among the people, Viserys also has titles such as 'Wise Lord', etc. The Dothraki also gave Viserys the title of 'Khal Riding the Dragon'.
However, none of this is attached to his official title, it is just folklore.
In response to this, the Tattered Prince hid in the Prince's Palace and remained quietly in front of a mascot, ignoring the sounds from the outside world.
Viserys then returned to Pentos and soon heard about Jon's dismissal.
However, he just nodded and said nothing more. Oberyn was considered to be acting within the rules.
But Viserys still called Jon over that night and recognized his contribution in person.
After all, Jon commanded the defense of Pentos and did not let the Dothraki attack him. Moreover, he was not fooled later. During this period, he also made great contributions in coordinating the material management and logistics.
Therefore, Viserys temporarily appointed him as a member of the Royal Council. As Minister of Justice, he had the right to attend important meetings, which was regarded as a formal position.
Jon's command of the thousands of Pentos garrison temporarily replaced by the Targaryen army will not be relieved of duty by Oberyn as easily as he did not long ago.
At the same time, Viserys also commended Ramsay for his meritorious service in the Bloody Night and the subsequent Dothraki invasion.
Viserys did not discriminate against the other party because of his identity as an illegitimate son, he also treated everyone equally.
However, Ramsay's merits were not enough to be promoted to Chief of Intelligence and sit in the Imperial Council.
Therefore, Viserys just expanded the manpower of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and allocated more soldiers to Ramsay to train him to become a staff member of the country's intelligence agency.
And all the soldiers who made meritorious service in this war, as well as everyone who worked hard behind the scenes, received the rewards they deserved.
The 20,000 Dothraki Roaring Warriors who were captured during the Battle of Heroes' Keep all surrendered to what they called the 'True Dragon Khal', and sincerely expressed their willingness to become a member of the True Dragon Khal's khalasar.
The dragon burned their Khal to death and conquered the Dothraki who fell to their knees in surrender.
And Viserys also reaped the greatest victory in this war.
The 20,000 Dothraki who surrendered were 20,000 light cavalry who brought their own horses and were highly skilled in riding and were free of wages. They were willing to follow Viserys as long as they took care of food and shelter.
This was almost like pie in the sky, and Viserys was also very happy, and then officially incorporated them.
However, such a large number of Dothraki are a hidden danger wherever they are placed, and it is not easy to separate these people.
These surrendered Dothraki are willing to obey the orders of the dragon-riding Khal, but they are unable to obey the orders of other commanders such as Bessie or Oberyn.
Because they only surrendered to Viserys, or those who could ride the dragon.
Khaleesi, who can also ride a dragon, is naturally included in this list.
There was no other way. Since these Dothraki could not be easily divided, Viserys personally commanded them.
Then they found a suitable place for them to settle down on the endless plains in the southeast direction of Pentos.
Now that I have chosen to surrender to the true dragon Kaa, I can no longer live the nomadic life of the past.
Viserys asked the Dothraki to build a rudimentary town similar to Vaes Dothraki on this lush plain.
They are probably just houses made of wood and straw, with stones used in some places that need to be reinforced.
Although it is relatively shabby, they built it themselves, and the Dothraki do not dislike it.
After all, no matter how dilapidated the house is, it is better than the days when they slept in tents or used the sky as their bed and the quilt as their bed during their nomadic days.
Later.
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, more than two months have passed.
August.
Pentos' economic level is recovering rapidly, even surpassing the level before the Bloody Night.
The Dothraki siege did not cause much damage to the city of Pentos.
Now, more than half a year has passed, in fact, it has been spent recovering from the damage caused by the turmoil of the Bloody Night.
However, under the background of Viserys' stimulus policies and the disappearance of monopolies, Pentos' economy has shown a rare and prosperous situation.
The stagnant water that was once under the rule of the governors is now completely alive and full of vitality.
The economy quickly returned to the level before the turmoil and is still making rapid progress.
And a month ago.
News like a huge earthquake also reached Pentos.
That is, the 40,000 Dothraki remnants who were defeated by Pantos fled to the vicinity of the Myr Sea. They pretended to be preparing to return to the Dothraki Sea and demanded high "protection fees" from Myr who passed by.
However, they then took the opportunity to launch a sudden attack, and 40,000 Dothraki captured the city gates of Myr and poured into this prosperous trading city-state.
Myr's satrapy hurriedly organized soldiers to resist.
However, the Golden Company, who had always been 'words like gold', actually took the initiative to tear up the contract and led the mercenaries of the Golden Company to escape from Myr and head towards Volantis.
therefore.
Myr encountered a massacre a hundred times more horrific than the Bloody Night.
