Chapter 444 The Collapse of Keolun (2)
“Brother~”
Helena called softly, trying to pull the other person out of the negative state.
Compared to her brother who was trapped in it, she still retains sufficient sanity.
Maybe it's because of weak emotions, or maybe it's because you only care about the people you want to care about.
She didn't want to mess with her head.
“Rhaenas…”
Rhaegar murmured. One side of his face was very handsome in the firelight, while the other side was distorted in the shadow.
Dragon Scales of Meraxes.
A piece of female Targaryen armor found in Hellgate Keep.
Which Targaryen female warrior will show up at Hellgate Keep, leaving her broken armor behind?
Various signs are almost explicit.
Leigar stood up suddenly, his eyes flashed with an icy cold light, and he couldn't help but growl: "The Uler family, this **** surname!"
“Brother, calm down.”
Helena took a step forward and gently persuaded.
“Back off!”
Rhaegar turned around and shouted, his anger rising to the sky.
Helena was startled and backed away obediently, leaving him room to vent.
“Uler! The provocative bastard!”
Rhaegar was so angry that he pulled out the real fire from his waist, opened his arms and hacked at two pieces of armor.
At this moment, there are no relics in my eyes.
I just want to chop everything in front of me into dregs, burn it to ashes, and let out the rage in my heart.
During the First Dornish War, Queen Rhaenys drove Melaxes to attack Hellgate Castle. The scorpion crossbow at the top of the city accidentally hit the dragon's eye.
Melasses fell to the ground in severe pain, and sadly died on the spot.
This was the first and only dragon slaying event by the Dornish people.
but!
Queen Rhaenys on Meraxes's back was missing, and no one saw her remains.
Even if it is a charred corpse or a puddle of suspected flesh.
Some people claim that Queen Rhaenys did not die, but was seriously injured by the fall and was imprisoned and tortured in the dungeons of Hellgate Keep.
This view is unproven and no one believes it.
After all, Meraxes was thrown to death, and it would be difficult for Queen Rhaenys, the driver, to survive.
The time comes to the year 13AC.
The leader of the Dornish side, Princess Merilla nicknamed "Yellow Toad", died.
Her heir Nemor Martell was tired of the war and sent his daughter Princess Darrilla Martell to lead an envoy to King's Landing to negotiate peace.
During this period, she brought the skull of Meraxes as a gift to the king.
After some unpleasant negotiations, the peace talks came to an end.
The ministers of the Iron Throne shouted "No surrender, no peace", Dorne was only willing to be equal to the Iron Throne.
Aegon the Conqueror was equally angry and scorned Darila Martell's proposal.
However, a letter changed his mind.
The conqueror opened the envelope in public and read the contents silently.
After reading the letter, the conqueror showed his composure and disordered mood, which was beyond his dignity.
No one knows what was written in that letter.
It is passed down by word of mouth among those present.
After the conqueror read the letter, he clenched the envelope tightly in his hands, his nails pierced his palms, and blood seeped out.
Eventually, the conquerors agreed to Dorne's terms of peace.
That night, the Conqueror was seen riding Balerion back to Dragonstone, and turned back before daybreak.
Similarly, no one knows what he did that night on Dragonstone.
The situation suddenly broke out, and two mainstream rumors spread throughout King's Landing.
1. That is a threatening letter.
If the peace negotiation fails, Dorne will hire faceless men to assassinate the conqueror's heir, and the conqueror is forced to agree.
2. Queen Rhaenys is not dead and has been imprisoned in Hellgate Castle to suffer.
Agreeing to terms of peace, Dorne would end her suffering and return her body.
Rumors are just rumors after all and no one can confirm them.
At this moment.
Looking at the scales of Meraxes and the remaining armor of Rhaenys.
Rhaegar steps outside written history to witness a humiliating compromise.
Queen Rhaenys is not dead!
Her armor was at Hellgate Keep, and House Uller had her imprisoned.
Bang, bang, bang!
Rhaegar swung his sword and slashed wildly, shouting "Damn it" incessantly. The silver-white scale armor was chopped into pieces, and the female armor was broken into ravines.
Staring deeply at the two pieces of armor, his heart was filled with unspeakable anger.
For more than a hundred years, the Uller family still preserved Queen Rhaenys's armor, and even woven the armor with the dragon scales of Meraxes.
They have been hiding and dare not reveal their secrets.
Today, I threw two pieces of armor into the dungeon like rubbish.
It is still an interrogation room that smells rancid.
Rhaegar could only regard everything as a provocation.
A despicable, despicable, ugly provocation that leaves no room at all!
“The Uller family!”
Rhaegar's face was ferocious, his chest heaved violently, and he cursed loudly: "I will kill you, break the neck of the last Uler, and let this surname disappear forever."
He is a Targaryen and the heir to the Iron Throne.
Those two identities aside, the blood of Queen Rhaenys flows in his veins.
Queen Rhaenys is his great-great-grandmother!
Every Targaryen today is of her bloodline with the Conqueror.
After venting his anger until his body no longer trembled with excitement, Rhaegar held the real fire with both hands and breathed heavily.
In the dark corner, the two pieces of armor were already in disrepair.
Rhaegar's eyes widened and he murmured: "Kindness does not work for everyone, so just wait for the wrath of the sleeping dragon."
Even when faced with the ugly face of the Sea King of Braavos and the sinister intentions of the Trimaiden Kingdom in detaining Mogul, he could still deal with it rationally.
It can only be said that the Uller family is truly a lunatic and a bastard.
Not a word, not a single meeting.
Throwing away two pieces of armor, Rhaegar's nerves were deeply aroused.
Anger burned in his heart, and Rhaegar's mouth went dry for a while.
It was cold, a warm embrace hugged him from behind, and the lotus arms under the snow-white gauze firmly locked his waist.
Rhaegar was in a daze for a moment.
The firm softness pressed against the back, gently and calmly persuading: "Don't let anger go to your head, you are a real dragon, they are reptiles."
“Helena.”
Rhaegar murmured, relaxing his tense body. The voice coming from behind had the unique tenderness of a girl, and was hoarse with a hint of worry, as noble as a lotus in the mud.
Rhaegar sniffed and seemed to be able to smell the refreshing fragrance.
“What are you smelling?”
Helena blinked, put her little hand into her brother's black robe, and whispered: "I changed to new perfume, which can cover up the dragon smell."
Rhaegar:…
As soon as she interrupted him, his anger died down.
The little girl is quite vindictive. She joked casually and waited until now to get a small revenge.
“Don't be angry, the angrier you are, the prouder Ule will be.”
Helena's gentle words of comfort.
Rhaegar turned around and looked at that familiar, pretty face.
Have clear eyes and cute face.
If those little hands hadn't taken the opportunity to sneak into the clothes and fumble around, he would have thought that the girl from the Seven Gods had appeared.
“Take the claws out.”
Rhaegar has a black line on his head.
“Oh~”
Helena's eyes were innocent, she took advantage of the chaos and scratched her lower abdomen, and then retracted her green-white hands.
Rhaegar rolled his eyes and picked up the fragments of women's armor and silver-white dragon scales.
When your palm touches a dragon scale, the system panel appears.
【Melassis' scales】
Exploration progress: 0.8% (ongoing)
Rhaegar put away his armor and dragon scales, leaving only one in his hand to maintain the progress of the exploration. He secretly cursed: "I hope to discover an offensive relic, so that I can kill Uler with my own hands."
In his eyes, the surname Uller was all on the list of strangers.
Clean up a mess of trouble.
Rhaegar looked at the lost Helena and sighed: "Follow me and help Mond deal with Hellgate Castle, and then we'll leave."
“Sunspear?”
Helena questions.
"Yes." Rhaegar's eyes flashed and he said coldly: "If we can't find Uller, we will burn down Sunspear."
Someone has to pay the price in blood and fire.
“Let's go.”
"good."
Sunspear City, the old palace.
The palace is very magnificent, with a spear tower and a sun tower, as well as many luxurious palaces.
Prince's study room.
Keolen was sitting on the desk with an unusually solemn expression, constantly flipping through the books that recorded the First Dorne War.
latest news.
Tianji City was defeated, and the Reach army entered the hinterland of Dorne.
Weir City and Yronwood City on the Bone Road were abandoned one after another, and the two earls led the soldiers to hide in the dark and prepare for an ambush.
Earl Uller of Hellgate Castle disobeyed orders and went into the desert without waiting for the coalition forces from Bramont City and Starfall City, heading towards Yronwood City.
Unable to do so, the fleets from Brymont City and Starfall City changed their routes in the Summer Sea, trying to break through the Arbor Island defenses and sack the Reach from Oldtown.
The war officially started, and the whole of Dorne was in chaos.
Keolen's plans were put on hold one after another, and the vassals gave up on rescuing Sunspear City, each with their own plans.
Yes, the capital Sunspear was left behind by the Dornish nobles.
Hundreds of years of hatred broke out. The Dornish nobles did not consider the consequences and just wanted to fight against the Iron Throne.
They hope that the feudal lord will join in and repeat the great cause of Dorne's resistance to the Iron Throne's invasion.
“Assholes, a bunch of brainless idiots.”
Keolen's face turned blue and white, and he cursed from the bottom of his heart.
The truth about what the Conqueror talked to Dorne is unknown, but as a prince he knew more or less.
Today is different from the past.
The Targaryens were at their peak, and there were six dragons rushing to the battlefield alone.
The Bronze Wrath controlled by the king and the Wings of Death controlled by the crown prince are both adult dragons that are no less worthy of the black **** back then.
It would be great if Dorne had help from Braavos and other forces outside the narrow sea.
Now that Braavos is sitting high on the Diaoyutai, what can Dorne do on his own?
Ke Olun's chest felt tight, and he couldn't help but think of the Three Women's Kingdom that was the first to be defeated.
He and the Sea King of Braavos have the same attitude, using the Three Women's Kingdom to bring down the Iron Throne and then reap the benefits.
However, there are too many Targaryen dragons, and they are not given a chance to control three city-states.
When the dragon flames reached Dorne, he understood the powerlessness of the Three Women Kingdom.
I regret that I did not give full support.
Ke Olun closed the page with a bang and sneered: "Braavos is standing by and watching, Dorne is really going to be defeated, can you stop the dragon?"
Throwing the books away, he called out to Davos Dane outside the study.
Crunch—
The door of the room was pushed open from the outside, and Daves walked in at dawn carrying a giant sword on his back.
“Prince, what are your orders?”
“Inform the Sunspear army to abandon all defenses and leave the city gates after dark.”
Davos was stunned for a moment and said solemnly: "We must follow experience and sneak into the desert for a protracted war."
This style of play is very friendly to radicals and is nothing more than desperate.
But for the conservatives, there is no doubt that they have to give up everything and prepare to return to the Iron Throne to negotiate peace.
Ke Olun jumped off the table with agility, his eyebrows were filled with unruly expression, and he solemnly said: "Yes and no, the army will take a detour, let's go to Yronwood City."
“Where are the princess and the others?”
Davos asked.
The prince has three children in total. In addition to the eldest daughter, Princess Alexandra, he also has a son and daughter.
Ke'Orun's eyes were deep and he gritted his teeth: "Alexandra will go with the army, Quill will be sent to Braavos, and Corianne will be sent to Volantis."
The eldest daughter is the heir and must stay in Dorne to rule. This is her mission.
The son and young daughter were sent to the narrow sea respectively to preserve Martell's bloodline.
“Yes, Prince.”
Davos nodded and walked out quickly.
He is in a hurry.
Because he realized that the situation in Dorne was very bad, and the prince wanted to give it a try.
