Game of Thrones: Viserys the Three-Headed Dragon

"Wait, where do you think they want to go?"

In King's Landing, Davos, who is responsible for controlling King's Landing affairs, asked in surprise.

"Great Wall."

He couldn't believe it: "What?"

"Yes, sir. They want to go to the Great Wall of Despair." The clerk who came to report explained, "The ascetic monks from the Holy See are very serious. According to the report, they had only registered to leave the city before, and then tried to take a detour from outside the city to enter the north. They were on the King's Road, but were stopped by the checkpoint at the Blackwater River Pass. They then took a long detour through the frozen river and went around to the north of the city. They were discovered by the patrolling guards because they encountered a wandering ghoul who lit a flame."

King's Landing is now under strict military control. As a team sent by King Targaryen to take over King's Landing, the wights did not kill many, but a lot of those who made trouble, robbed, and stole in the city were dealt with first. Earl Bruce of Coppergate City has gained a reputation as the "Bloody Earl" in just half a month in King's Landing. He has hanged and burned dozens of criminals.

Someone talked to Earl Bruce about his radical approach, but only received an answer that the order given by the king was "the most important code in troubled times."

However, the "Chongdian" did quickly suppress the chaos in King's Landing. When Davos arrived with relief supplies, the refugees in King's Landing had already gathered and resettled in some relatively intact places. And Davos's job is not easy either. Davos had already thought clearly that the reason why the king asked him to come to King's Landing was not only because the Stormlands were close enough, but also because he had participated in the "relief for work" program in the Stormlands.

The king has always had his own view on relief, which is that it is "not free" and must be exchanged for something. Although it was cold in King's Landing under the long night, the burned blocks and houses in the city had to be dealt with, and the defending army had to requisition some areas to directly build warehouse areas and settlements. In order to defend the city, the troops on next rotation will be stationed nearby under the city area.

And building a cold-proof gathering place on the ruins of the city requires manpower, stones, and wood. Where do these things come from? Undoubtedly, they come from people whose houses have been burned down in King's Landing. They can exchange labor, usable materials from the ruins, and land ownership for supplies.

Although Viserys himself felt that this approach was a bit unkind, so he handed it over to Davos and Bruce, the so-called "gentleman stays away from the cook".

But in fact, in the eyes of many nobles and even the monks of the Holy See, these can be regarded as "benevolent policies."

Davos didn’t understand: “Why would the ascetics in the temple want to go to the Great Wall?”

"Sir, that's it. I wonder if you have heard that the 'miracle of the warrior' appeared in the Great Sept of Baelor on the day His Majesty rescued King's Landing?"

"I heard it, does it matter?"

"I'm not sure, sir. I just heard about it. I heard that the monks in the temple believe that Your Majesty is a 'living warrior', so they want to go to the Great Wall to find His Majesty to verify this matter."

"Wait, what?" Davos was surprised, "That rumor? I thought it was a 'rhetoric'."

The steward blinked: "Who knows, maybe the monks in the temple don't think so."

"How could it be?" Davos frowned, "How could this be possible? I mean" he couldn't find the adjective for a moment, "how could it be."

"So, Sir, what should we do with them? It is said that they avoid the checkpoints and are suspected of smuggling, but they are all monks of the Great Temple of Baelor. I am worried that if I just let them go, they will continue to find their way to the north and die. Becoming a ghoul outside, you know, monks are always very stubborn."

"Don't they know that Harrenhal has been lost? The King's Road heading north is now full of danger."

"I think they know they've seen the crisis."

"Send them back to the temple?"

"In fact, they have changed two groups of people. I also just learned that not long ago, two groups of the same monks tried to go north. Unfortunately, they were not so lucky. Half of the two groups turned into corpses. Ghost, the rest who escaped were sent to Earl Bruce by the previous sentry guards. They mobilized the restrained Sons of Soldiers without the consent of the United Front Coordination Department. This time they did not bring more than twelve armed men. So after they were rescued, it was our turn to deal with them. I had arranged to send them back to the church, but they came back."

"What?"

"You may not believe it, sir. They hope to comply with the 'White Walker Anti-War Agreement' and let us issue a pass for them, allowing them to go to the Great Wall to fight against the aliens in the name of an armed group."

Davos narrowed his eyes: "Pass?"

"A pass from King's Landing to the Wall."

"." Davos was speechless for a moment, "How many people are there?"

"Seven, two monks, five followers."

"Seven? What kind of armed group is this?" Davos shook his head.

"In fact, this is why I came to you, my lord. Your Majesty did not have a numerical requirement in the agreement, so in theory, if they prove their determination to go to the Great Wall to fight against the White Walkers, then... we should support it. ”

"...But," Davos felt baffled. Although he had this power, so far he had only issued passes to those who had been called into the Second Chapter, and had never issued certificates to civilian armed forces. Theoretically, he can drive, but aren't seven people just messing around? But Davos couldn't find anything in the agreement to refute. He frowned: "But they are monks."

"What the agreement says is that 'there is no distinction between north and south, and there is no distinction between people, old and young.' I think this also includes monks."

"Can"

"They're very determined."

Davos looked at the steward with a straight face: "Wouldn't this mean sending them to death?"

"So I came to see you, sir." The clerk said helplessly, "They said that if you don't agree, the monk hopes to see you in person for an interview."

"."

Not long after, a thin, tall, gray-haired old monk came to Davos: "Hello, sir. Do you have any doubts about our will to go north?"

"Hello, Brother North." Davos was overtaken by the other party as soon as they met. He felt helpless, "I don't doubt you -"

"My lord, may I ask where we do not comply with the provisions of the 'agreement'?"

".Well," Davos replied honestly, "not really."

The monk's eyes flashed, his eyes were hot and sharp: "I heard that it is commendable for a knight to die for honor and loyalty. Does it mean that a monk dying for his beliefs is a stupid act in your eyes?"

"Brother North, where do you begin?"

The monk nodded lightly and nodded seven times on his chest: "Since you respect the honor of the knight, please also respect the monk's faith. Sir, we have decided to go to the Great Wall. Please issue a pass for us."

After only a few words, Davos was cornered by the sophistry of the aggressive monk, but these few words also allowed Davos to see their determination. At least the monk in front of him, he could tell, was the kind of person who would fight to the death for certain things.

"Of course I respect your beliefs, monk, but now the night has fallen and the Great Wall is thousands of miles away."

"Sir, I heard that you believe in the Seven Gods. I would like to ask you if you are afraid of darkness descending under the long night, covering everything, and the light will no longer be there?" The old monk piously lowered his hands and said with a firm tone, "The darker the world becomes, the darker it becomes. I need light; the farther I go, the more I can verify my sincerity, sir.”

"." Davos was stunned for a long time, "I understand, Brother North. I will issue a certificate for you."

In this way, seven monks from the Great Sept of Baelor, headed by Brother North, obtained a pass to the Great Wall from King's Landing. Soon after, this seven-member team, the first "civilian armed group" since the long night, waited for the transport team returning to transport supplies in the direction of Shitang Town.

Hearing that the destination of these seven monks was the Great Wall, the captain of the transport team was in awe.

In the south, the Seven Gods are the belief of almost all Westeros people. From nobles to commoners, people naturally have a kind of awe and trust in the monks of the Great Temple of Baelor. When they hear about their purpose and goal, it becomes even more... We respectfully arranged the best environment along the way.

In the cold wave of the long night without seeing the sun, Brother North and his team of seven followed Targaryen's return transport team and rushed to Stone Hall Town along the golden road that was already covered with deep snow.

This road was much easier than the straight section they had ventured to attempt previously.

Due to the transportation of materials by the Targaryen army, although this section of the road was also covered with thick snow, it was well-traveled by carriages, horses and soldiers, and was even paved with sawdust and plant ash in some places.

Every few hours of walking, Brother North and his entourage would see a fortification building with bright lights and a barricade set up on the roadside.

At first, the monk didn't take it seriously, but until he passed the third building with the same shape and the transport team went in to rest, Brother North still felt very strange and unfamiliar, so when he entered a post station to rest, he couldn't help but look at the knight sitting in the carriage on the way back. Question: "Sir, I also walked the golden road to the West two years ago, but I have never seen these hotels?"

"Inn?" The leading knight was stunned for a moment before he realized what Brother North was talking about. "Oh, you said the military inn. Brother, you walked through it two years ago. No wonder you didn't know. These are inns. They were built one after another under the instruction of His Majesty the King one year before and after the Long Night. The two closest to King's Landing were built by your refugees from King's Landing. "

"Inn?"

"It's just a temporary resting place for the army, and it also serves as a warning beacon. To be honest, His Majesty is far-sighted. Without these, how could we dare to brave the cold to transport supplies in the long night, and live in the wilderness at night without freezing to death. In the ice and snow, there are still many things in the wilderness. There are White Walkers out there, and we wouldn’t be able to get to King’s Landing without these.”

"So that's the case. No wonder His Majesty's army can march through the long night and supplies can be kept flowing." The monk suddenly became happy, "I wonder if there is such a post station on the way north from Shitang Town?"

"It's a pity, monk. You can only see these in the south. To tell you the truth, I have been to Pink City in the north. There are no inns on that section of the road. There are only abandoned campsites along the way where you can rest. It's not a pleasant feeling. You guys If you want to go north then, you must wait for the camp's supply team to arrive, otherwise even if you don't encounter a zombie wave outside, the cold will not be underestimated. "

Brother North was a little regretful when he heard this, but he still heard some good news: "There will be teams transporting supplies regularly from Stone Hall Town to the north. That means there will be no harassment from the White Walkers on the road north of Stone Hall Town, and the supplies will go all the way. The Great Wall?”

"I don't know about this. Monk, there is very little news from the north after the long night. There are even fewer people coming. I am just a small grain transport officer. I have only been to Pink City, but I heard about the transportation team from the northern camp. We will go further, to Riverrun."

Brother North suddenly became even more delighted: "Can we get to Riverrun?"

Seeing this, the grain transport officer hurriedly made up his mind: "I just heard about it."

After a night's rest at the inn, there was even hot water provided that night, which surprised Brother North.

The grain transport team disagreed with this: "If you don't boil water to keep warm, wouldn't it be a waste of firewood?"

Brother North was speechless for a moment. The truth was correct, but Brother North found that almost all the soldiers in the food transport team were given hot water. You must know that the value of firewood in the long night is not cheap.

But when he was woken up in the long night inn, Brother North knew where the firewood for the inn came from.

A transport team heading to King's Landing passed by and was unloading a load of firewood specially brought to the inn.

These firewood all come from Shitang Town.

But Brother North has not yet figured out where Shitang Town got so many supplies.

They quickly recuperated and set out to continue heading west. When they reached a fork in the road, Brother North discovered that there was suddenly an additional north-south avenue on the golden road to the west.

The grain transport team turned north here, and after another day's journey, crossing two frozen rivers, they arrived at Shitang Town.

A trace of light shone through the curtains on the carriage, and Brother North couldn't help but feel surprised. He couldn't help but lift the curtains, and saw a sudden light reflecting the sky under the long night.

The carriage swayed, and Brother North saw in a trance that under the sky, a luminous sphere like the sun lit up in a small town, and around the town, three ziggurats arranged in three directions of the town were dotted with flames. A huge camp covering an area even larger than a small town appeared in his field of vision.

Figures swayed under the fire and bright light. You could see clusters of huge fires in the camp on the mountainside, as bright as day. It reflected that the forest outside had been cut down and was bare. Some people were carrying logs, and some were patrolling the camp in formations. Further away, There was still light from the fire in the forest, and he could faintly see someone cutting down trees. When he looked over, a huge tree was falling.

In the camp on the plain on the other side, the army was training under the long night. From time to time, there were golden thunder and lightning, and strong winds.

The camp above the town was relatively quiet, with only the occasional patrol patrolling with torches.

"Is this Stone Hall Town?"

Brother North also came to Shitang Town when he was young, but his impression of this place was just a small town with a population of more than a thousand people. But now it still has the same style as before. Just looking at the three large fortresses, there are less than six people gathered here. , 70,000 people.

This place is already a military center.

Although Brother North does not understand military affairs, he also knows that bigger is better and more is stronger. Based on his instinctive perception, he also knows that the strength of the fortress in the camp is definitely not lower than that of some knights' castles. When the transport team entered the town, Brother North was even more shocked.

But it turns out that the glowing sphere in the town is a huge glass product.

The glass product is on a wooden tower in the square. Below the tower, an army of thousands of people is standing in formation. Wisps of golden light are growing in the queue, passing to the strange glass on the tower. products.

It seemed like some kind of prayer ceremony was going on.

The golden electric light made Brother North feel close to him, but the glowing thing was so bizarre that Brother North didn't know where to start and asked: "What is that?"

Sir, who was traveling with him, seemed to have been prepared to answer: "That is an 'electric lamp', something used by His Majesty's battle group to exercise and test their strength." Speaking of the battle group, Sir's eyes showed a look of fascination.

"Lamp? Chapter?"

"This is the power of His Majesty's Thunder Storm Armor. It is an armor made by His Majesty with magic. It is the concrete power of the land of Westeros and the unified integration of the power of the princes and civilians across the country." Jazz said what Viserys said Thing told the monk.

"This is a miracle!" Brother North was very excited. "This is. This is the power of warriors! This is the gods protecting Westeros."

"Soldier." The knight finally couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked, "Friar, I heard that your Majesty rescued King's Land and many people saw a 'miracle'?"

"Of course!" Brother North's eyes sparkled and his expression became fanatical, "The warrior has given us and other believers inspiration, and this is why I went to confirm. No, your majesty is undoubtedly the warrior's representative in the world, and his dragon is the warrior. The sword in his hand, the heavenly father gave him the righteous thunder, the blacksmith gave him the blazing fire, and the stranger gave him the frost that froze everything. These powers he controlled were the light that the gods produced to save the believers in the darkness."

"So, the ancient dragon god that your majesty occasionally mentioned is not a supernatural god in your opinion?" Sir breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously.

"Perhaps Your Majesty is not aware of the nature of his divine power." Brother North became excited. "Yes, this is exactly why I am here, and this is exactly why I am going to the Great Wall. It must be so, it must be so."

"Brother North, I take the liberty of asking. Ahem," the grain transport officer coughed, "if I am thinking of His Majesty the King when I pray to the warriors for courage, will it be considered blasphemy in the eyes of the gods?"

"The image of a warrior is in your heart, my child. Don't let the illusion of sculpture blind your eyes. God's true identity is complex. He is the face on the statue and the face in your heart. When you pray to Him for courage, you I know he is a warrior." I don't know if this is Brother North trying to persuade himself or trying to reason with the knight in front of him.

"I understand. Thank you for clarifying my doubts, monk."

Arriving at Stone Hall Town, the food transport team and Brother North's team quickly separated, and Brother North was quickly introduced to the local military officer Garland Tyrell and logistics officer Willas Tyrell. Two brothers.

Seeing the pass issued by Davos, Willas couldn't help but ask: "Friar, your team is going to the Great Wall?"

Brother North replied in an unassuming tone: "Yes, sergeant. The road from King's Landing to the north via Harrenhal has been cut off, so we want to see if the road is open from the Riverrun area."

"I may disappoint you, monk." Willas shook his head, "I think you have already experienced how cold it is in King's Landing and Stonehall Town under the long night. Riverrun will only be colder. And unfortunately, I heard that Riverrun Whether you take the main road to the Trident River or the small road from the west to the Twin Rivers, the road has been cut off.”

There are some truths that Vilas can't quite explain. But despite the fact that the cold wave swept through and the crows could not fly, many places were only cut off from news in name. However, as the logistics director of a military region, Vilas had obtained more information and had vaguely guessed that most of the castles in the Riverlands might be They have all fallen, including Twin River City and Haijiang City. It is just because of lack of means that real information cannot be obtained from other places.

From the intelligence from various places, Willas only knew that Winterfell and White Harbor in the north were still there, Riverrun City on the river was still there, and there was occasional news from Crowtree City and Stonehedge City. As for other places, it was just a fog of war, and there was nothing. message.

"It doesn't matter, Sir. Just make sure there is a road to Riverrun. We can wait until we arrive at Riverrun to confirm. Even if the road to transport materials is cut off, we have few people and we don't need big cars or horses."

Garland couldn't help but interrupt: "I saw that you didn't even prepare your horses to protect themselves from the cold. Friar, with all due respect, you in King's Landing can't even imagine how cold it is in the north."

"I wonder if there is a place to buy it in Shitang Town?"

Garland was speechless for a moment.

Vilas couldn't help but shook his head when he saw this: "Well, monk, you might as well stay here for a few days, wait for the river supply team to and from Riverrun to arrive, and then go to Riverrun with them. You have too few people, and I'm not familiar with the road, so I'll wait for the supplies team to take care of me. In the past few days, scouts have discovered that there are ghosts around. It's very unsafe with few people. As for the cold-proof clothing for the horses, since you got the pass according to the 'agreement', I will distribute a supply to you in advance according to the 'agreement'. You can get one when you come to Kalin Bay, just get a certificate then."

"So, thank you."

Things went much smoother than Brother North imagined.

Wait for Brother North to leave. Garland couldn't help but say: "The people in King's Landing are just making a fool of themselves. Isn't it going to kill these ascetics who only know how to practice in the temple to come out?"

"Why do you think so? Isn't this an inspiring thing?" Villas replied, "To put it bluntly and cruelly, they have come out. Whether they succeed or fail, they can ease the current situation of the royal family and the church. The entanglement is something that both the royal family and the church can use to communicate. Yes, my view is a bit cruel, but Garland, from another perspective, have you ever thought about it, what if the gods show up and they successfully arrive. Where is the Great Wall?”

Garland shook his head and smiled bitterly, obviously he didn't think these people could reach the Great Wall.

"If they reach the Great Wall, how much encouragement will it give to the morale of the military and the people? His Majesty said that in the cruel war that will follow, what he is most worried about is not the military retreat, but that the people who should be fighting will get tired of hiding. Welcoming death in the fortress, afraid of the night and the cold. Why do you think His Majesty used the precious messenger of Long Night to spread the news that the capital in people's hearts was almost lost and half the city was in ruins? "Vilas? Sighing, "Because after being comfortable for a long time, people in the fortress will gradually forget what fear is; if fear is too great and death becomes the norm, Garland, people will also forget what courage and honor are. As long as these people walk to the rushing river City, go north, even if they die just after leaving the city, their stories will be compiled into songs, you know?"

After listening to Willas's words, Garland fell silent. After a long time, he said: "You must survive this war and inherit the Reach. Willas, you are the future of the Tyrell family."

Brother North and his party waited in Shitang Town for ten days, and even experienced a snowstorm. They visited the southern camp of Shitang Town within the allowed range. It was a gathering place for militia organizations and paid laborers. After entering the camp of three shifts, Brother North learned that in addition to cutting down trees, some of the civilians were digging and building caves along the mountain.

Many experienced miners have been recruited here, and they are digging out tunnels and intricate tunnels for storing supplies bit by bit in the mountains southwest of Shitang Town. If necessary, the mountains in the southwest will become a mine that can accommodate nearly 10,000 people. A huge fortress of man. Some of the potholes that have been formed are already inhabited by villagers and villagers from nearby areas, forming human gathering areas and even unique small town businesses. And all this is because Viserys follows tradition and pays corresponding rewards for each subsequent day's work to the civilian laborers who have been recruited for more than forty days.

Many civilian husbands even brought their families with them.

The system here is relatively loose, but after all, it is controlled by the military. Although it is loose, it does not lead to unscrupulous growth, so it can be called orderly.

After visiting the cave, Brother North had nothing to do, and he had the idea of ​​writing down what he saw and heard like the previous monks of the church.

Many records related to the ancient humanities of Westeros are closely related to missionaries and monks. Brother North sorted out what he saw and heard since leaving King's Landing, and began to record in detail everything he observed along the way.

Just like observing and recording, Brother North waited for the supply team from Riverrun.

After contacting the supply team of Riverrun, the other party was very happy to let this team of monks who were willing to die accompany them. Among these people, Brother North and his party quickly learned about the current situation in the river. Riverrun was also attacked by the zombie tide during the Battle of King's Landing, but the zombie tide failed to capture Riverrun and quickly retreated to the wilderness and disappeared. However, as soldiers who were only responsible for part of the affairs, most of these people did not know the situation in other places in the river, and the captain who knew more intelligence did not tell these monks some bad news.

However, the captain still leaked some information. The roads to the east and west of Riverrun are impossible to pass. The scouts sent out recently can no longer bring back information five miles north and east of Riverrun, which means that the outside has become very dangerous.

As if to confirm the captain's words. After leaving the Red Powder City, the transport team encountered a wave of zombies while crossing the frozen cold water of the Red Fork River. The transport team immediately abandoned the supplies, ignited all the wildfires and fuel in the supply vehicles, and rode directly to the King's Road in the Westland to Riverrun, until they were lucky enough to meet a group of soldiers who ran in the opposite direction from Riverrun to explore the Westland and Stone Town, and then they escaped.

However, before the team continued to head east to Riverrun.

This team brought them a very unfortunate news.

It turned out that not long after the supply troops went to Stone Town, Riverrun received news that Stone Hedge was besieged by a wave of zombies and had fallen. The people of the Bracken family who escaped by chance brought news that the zombies were at least 40,000 to 50,000, and they would also use stone-throwing attacks.

This number made Brynden the Blackfish, who stayed behind to guard Riverrun on behalf of Edmure, feel that it was impossible to do anything, so he decided to try to ask for help from the Westerlands and Stonetown before the zombie tide swept Riverrun. Although the hope was slim, Brynden still sent out riders.

The battle of Riverrun was imminent, and North and others obviously could no longer think of going north from Riverrun.

However, a piece of information from the messenger to the Westerlands brought them a new turn. It turned out that there was a rumor in the Westerlands that there was a sea transportation channel in Lannisport that would transport supplies to the North through the Greyjoy warships in the Iron Islands. The news was not accurate and was hearsay.

But at least there was a direction, so this group of monks turned and followed the river riders who went to the Westerlands for help.

After riding for five days in the long night of ice and snow, one follower froze to death on the road before arriving at the Golden Tooth.

The current situation of Golden Tooth City is also very different from what the monks had imagined. It has now become the gathering point of the military forces of the West, with more than 10,000 veterans and new recruits.

But unfortunately, the troops of the West are more than enough to protect themselves, but not enough to support them. The call for help from Riverrun is doomed to be unanswered.

Then the monks and the messenger of Riverrun parted ways and went to Lannisport alone.

Before leaving, they heard that the West had begun to block the pass and the main road, as if they were going to close the gate of the West.

As a passerby, Brother North could not judge whether the decision of the Westerly army was right or wrong. He had experienced the siege of King's Landing and knew the horror of the zombie tide.

King's Landing has the advantage of defending the city, and it has more troops than the Westerly now, but it still failed to defend King's Landing.

The situation in Riverrun is not good, so how can the Westerly avoid it next?

The more Brother North saw, the more he saw the army and preparations of the king's first conquered areas, and then the army and preparations of the later conquered areas, the more he was sure that Viserys was the only choice to defeat the invasion of the White Walkers - the king was the warrior's agent in the world, and must be the warrior's agent in the world. The princes of Westeros and themselves alone could not stop the offensive of the White Walkers. What awaited them was only destruction.

They should be said to be lucky. In Lannisport, there was actually a Greyjoy fleet transporting supplies from the sea to the Iron Islands. He even heard from the Ironmen that Asha Greyjoy would personally lead a fleet to the Bright Flame Bay to find a landing place in the stream area and explore the current situation of the northern coastline, and claimed that he would open up a land route to Winterfell.

Most of the Ironmen thought Asha Greyjoy was crazy, but Asha had been taking risks to do this. It is said that because of Asha's persistence, King Viserys praised her actions and personally gave her a Valyrian steel suit that can cast magic and a magic instrument that can communicate directly with the king and the leaders of various regions.

With those two things, Asha truly gained the "real power" that everyone in the Iron Islands had to recognize.

It was a coincidence. After the White Walkers lost in succession in Winterfell and White Harbor, the last two fortresses in the North, they decisively gave up the siege of Winterfell and White Harbor and transferred all their troops to the hinterland of Westeros with a larger population.

The streamland, which had been scraped and no living creatures were left, really became a vacuum zone for the White Walkers.

Asha's adventurous behavior really paid off. Her fleet landed at the mouth of the Fever River in Bright Flame Bay, and then ventured north along the frozen Fever River. The army that went to explore actually arrived at the big lake under the city of Torrhenfang without any surprise.

After the exploration team reported the intelligence to Asha, and Asha reported it to Viserys through the communicator, Viserys ordered the troops in Winterfell to try to extend their tentacles to Torrhen's Square.

This time, the adventurous army actually managed to go back and forth to the lake in Tollen's Square City.

This can be considered good news, because when necessary, the stream can become a supply line from south to north.

The intelligence given on a larger level is that the White Walker army has already plundered other places in the western part of the North, and moved to other places without stopping.

Combining the information that the White Walkers did not continue to harass Winterfell and White Harbor on a large scale, and the news that the White Walker army entered the river, Viserys boldly estimated that the White Walkers in the North have already moved south in large numbers.

At this time, no matter what the purpose is, Viserys intends to try to activate the supply line discovered by Asha.

Even if the supply escort that can be done for this kind of work behind the enemy is very rare, it can even be said to be a pure waste of manpower and troops. But as long as it is done, it can be regarded as a pull in the general direction. Since the White Walker army has given up control of the land and castles, after they go far away, the human side can completely carry out actions behind the enemy with the advantage of sea transportation in the Sunset Sea. This will not only inspire the defenders of the Great Wall and the North, but also, if they can attract the White Walker army to turn back, wouldn't it be possible to delay the pressure from the south in the general direction?

Perhaps it was really that the gods blessed North and his party. When they arrived at the Iron Islands by ship from Lannisport, they encountered Asha coming back to recruit the Ironmen to try to transport some strategic materials to the lake of Torrhen's Square City through the frozen Heat Wave River in just a few days, and completed the handover with the defenders of Winterfell there.

So the monks took advantage of the east wind again and were able to reach the North by ship, and then went north with the supply team in the completely deserted land in the north, and finally officially arrived at Winterfell.

When they arrived at Winterfell, it had been almost three months since these monks set out from King's Landing, and they were only three people left from the original seven. Another monk and three followers died on the way for various reasons.

And when they arrived at Winterfell, their heroic journey was about to reach its end.

However, before meeting Viserys, many of the questions and concerns that Brother North had before his trip had been answered on the way.

Even Viserys himself in the future would have to admit that the long journey of the devout believers, mainly the monks of North, risking their lives in the long night, played an unimaginable role in his plan to spread the faith.

In order to commemorate this feat, a road was born in Westeros in later generations where believers of the "warrior" faith would often hone themselves. The journey started from the Great Sept of Baelor in King's Landing, passed the Golden Road to Stonetown, and then passed Stonetown through Pink City to Riverrun, then turned around and entered Lannisport in the West, and then from Lannisport, took the Iron Islands to the streams in the North, and arrived at Winterfell along the banks of the Fever River, and finally arrived at the Wall along the straight King's Road, and completed the baptism under the statue of the God King Viserys to become a formal member of the "Son of the Warrior".

Later generations called this road the "Warrior's Road".
