Chapter 353: The End of Fire Song

Chapter 353: The End of Fire Song
When a person comes, sometimes it is silent, and sometimes it is with great force.

And when he leaves, his life's work will add to, or subtract from, the fireworks at the end.

If there were any old court officials who had lived from Viserys I to the present day - unfortunately, with the death of the jester "Mushroom", few people still remember the grand occasion when the Vareses family first arrived in Westeros.

But the dwarf, who was humorous, good at criticizing current social problems and dared to make sarcastic criticisms to anyone, rarely mentioned the protagonist of today's grand banquet during his lifetime.

Westeros had not held such a grand event since the Golden Wedding and the Silver Wedding. The area between Dragon's Nest and Summer Hall was filled with tents from all over the world. The tournament, which had not hosted a large event for a long time, was renovated and reopened. The tournament with 3,700 knights participating would last for a whole month. It was said that there would be ritual duels between dragon knights. The feast was held in the open air, from morning to night, without stopping.

Oldtown, King's Landing, and the dragons stationed in Silvercrown and Bronze Pass also arrived.

The largest gathering of dragonlords in the world since the Doom of Valyria began at the same time.

Even the king who was unable to move could only let Crown Prince Daeron stay in Dragon's Nest with an apology as a sign of respect.

However, the protagonist of the banquet, Longzel, only appeared at the banquet when Daeron arrived on his dragon and when the lords of the North sailed south and then arrived by land. The rest of the time, the sons of the Vareses family entertained the guests.

Igor finally had some free time to develop his plan.

As children, they just need some stimulation.

But now is not the time to reveal it.

Igor found a quiet room with great interest. During this period of time, even in Dragon's Nest, there were few quiet places as many important figures moved in and made a lot of noise. Sebastian took one to read, Damion took one to study corpses - it seemed that he had really found something rare, Daenerys took one to take care of her pregnancy, and Brynden took one to feel sad - Derek was working on her relationship with Daeron as arranged. Although Daeron fell in love with Derek at the first sight of her and had been so for many years, and was extremely excited when he knew he was going to marry Derek, that boy was really... In Brynden's words, he had never seen such a stupid guy. He couldn't tell what the girl wanted, and just did whatever you said.

Forget it, let’s just go grab Sebastian’s place.

"Igor, you come again."

I heard my brother's helpless voice from above my head.

"I can't help it. Your place is the best place for me. You can't ask me to go next to a corpse or read next to that boy Bran."

"what book?"

"It was written by Mushroom the Fool. It was compiled from his diary in his later years." Igor raised the thick book in his hand. "I asked Darren to bring it to me. When the old naughty boy was young, he did not do anything serious. He told dirty jokes everywhere. No one else dared to write them except grandpa. I didn't expect that he was so serious before he died of old age. What he wrote was actually quite objective."

"Which part are you watching?"

"You're so boring, brother. The part where Grandfather and his men just arrived in King's Landing."

Igor was really impressed by Sebastian's "boringness", perhaps because he had read this book before. Or perhaps Sebastian had read records with similar content.

But it's still unpleasant.

Igor glanced at his brother who was smiling above his head and said, "Then I read it?"

"Read it. I'll see if there are any discrepancies with Grand Maester Melos's records."

"you're so boring."

Igor muttered something and opened the book.

"After receiving the news of the successful negotiation, His Majesty was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. Gods of the Seven, I have never seen His Majesty's emotions change so much outside of His Royal Highness the Princess, Prince Daemon and His Majesty's architectural blueprints. Even my jokes can't be forgiven. I am very happy because His Majesty hasn't been so happy in a long time. The servants in the palace are all looking forward to His Majesty's rewards, as well as the rewards from the new Dragon King family that we have never met - no one thinks the Dragon King is a miser. But I am worried, because the negotiations were promoted by Prince Daemon and Princess Rhaenys, and I am worried that it will eventually lead to another turmoil - Prime Minister Otto does not want new forces to enter the scene, let alone enter the scene under the coordination of Daemon and the old princess. The struggle between the queen and the princess is bound to affect His Majesty's plan."

"It doesn't look like Mushroom's work." Sebastian said with a smile, "According to his usual habits, there would be seven or eight dirty jokes mixed in this paragraph. But this is indeed him. According to the diaries of Grand Maester Orwell and Grand Maester Melos, Mushroom is indeed a calm, serious person in private."

"We waited anxiously for the day when Longzel Varese and his party arrived. They arrived separately. I was a jester and could only watch from afar in the court, which gave me great convenience. There were many passages in the Red Keep that could only accommodate dwarves, allowing me to see more. Unfortunately, my head was too big. If it was smaller, I could go to a higher place and see a more complete scene. The first to enter the city was the Varese family. I saw the elephants they brought from Volantis in the tower of the Red Keep. By the Seven Gods, I have never seen such huge creatures, and there were so many silver-haired Valyrians. The armor they wore was very similar to those in the Reach. The mead-fed plate knights were just as well equipped. Even from a distance I could tell they were made of fine steel. Seven hells, every one of them was better equipped than the Kingsguard, and even their horses were taller than the average warhorse. They were actually throwing money at the citizens of King's Landing. I saw the things they threw out gleaming with gold in the sun. Gold was also sprinkled from the treasure chests carried by the elephants. God, are they really that rich? Half of King's Landing came, I guarantee you, I've never seen the guys in Flea Bottom so docile in front of gold. Just as I was marveling at the wealth and madness of the Vareses family, the dragons came. "

"Seven layers of hell, how can it be so big? When I was a child, I saw the former king riding on Wormithor. At that time, Wormithor was already the third largest dragon in Westeros, but not as majestic as it is now. Its body could almost fill the entire Red Castle. Uh, it may be my habitual exaggeration, but it is indeed too big. The landing of two dragons almost made the entire castle tremble. No one really considered the feelings of a dwarf with a big head. I almost fell down. Fortunately, I was agile and rushed to the throne room. The first thing I saw was the sour face of Prime Minister Otto. I guess Prince Longzel and his party left a deep impression on him - of course, it was not a good impression. His Majesty was very happy, and Her Majesty the Queen had no expression. The expressions of the adults were quite interesting. There was shock, envy, but more fear. Seven layers of hell, when I saw the prince and his people, I was also scared - I swear in the name of the Seven Gods."

"The prince is a young man, very young, handsome even among the Valyrians, and so are his brothers. Prince Valar is more robust, and I read curiosity from his expression. Prince Rey has long hair and looks more like a beautiful girl. Only the prince cannot read his expression. God of the Seven, as a jester, reading expressions is a required course, but I cannot read the prince's smile. I can only watch him gently and politely present gifts to the king. After the king accepts and conferring titles on them, he swears allegiance according to etiquette - no, before they took off to support Black Harbor, everything they did in the throne room was so ordinary, but it scared me. I have no idea what they want to do. Two dragon knights, amazing wealth, a huge army and population, each of which can subvert this country. I dare not think too much, and can only hope that all this will end as soon as possible."

At some point, Longzel came to the two teenagers.

"What a distant memory. This is the prelude to our coming to this land." The old voice interrupted the boy's reading.

"Little slippery man."

"grandfather."

Longzel rubbed his grandson's head and said, "I saw what you did. You arranged for Damion and the others to show off the dragon in front of the Targaryen royal family. Haha, that's bad enough."

Igor lowered his head.

"Come with me, the Song of Fire is about to come to an end. During the intermission, you will be needed to maintain the balance." "Yes, sir."

The two young men followed the old man out of the study in the Laurel Tower.

Their destination is the Dragon's Lair.

The dragon's lair is facing the huge banquet venue.

The Vermithor had already climbed out of the cave, leaving the maximum space for its rider.

The people at the banquet noticed the giant dragon that was as big as a mountain. They realized what was going to happen, but the host of the banquet had already told them that there was no need to be sad at this banquet.

So they were still happy.

The Vareses gathered together and watched the patriarch of the family, the old man who had brought the family to the top, slowly walk to the towering stone wall and gently press his hand on it.

There was no sadness for either the adults or the children.

For someone like Longzel who is almost equivalent to a god in the religious sense, death is often just the beginning. In the ancient Valyria period, the great wizard Dragon King who was unwilling to prolong his life would be promoted to a god after his death. This is also the origin of the Valyrian gods.

Unfortunately, Longzel was not willing to do so.

"From now on, I am the Red Mountain. Dragons will multiply endlessly because of me. This place will also become the last barrier of Westeros. If you fail to solve the Long Night, we will buy you a short time."

Longzel turned to look at the children.

"Don't let me down, old man, Dragon Flame."

The dragon mouth of Womisol opened slightly, and a mouthful of dragon flame gushed out, but it could not ignite Longzel, but only made the stone wall begin to turn black and melt.

In the flames, Melisandre walked over and saluted to Ringol and Igor: "In compliance with Prince Longzel's orders, Melisandre, the agent of Lord of Light R'hllor, will serve the Vareses family until the long night ends and a new era begins."

"welcome."

In the flames, streams of blood gleaming with silver light burned from Longzel's body and spread to the stone wall. The dragons in the dragon cave awakened one after another, and even the dragons brought by the Targaryen royal family began to become restless.

However, the dragon knights who were eating and drinking did not notice anything unusual.

Instead, at the banquet, he raised his glass with Crown Prince Daeron to pay tribute to the prince who changed the fate of the Targaryen dynasty.

The blood is flowing and burning.

Longzel's entire body finally began to burn, but it was not the burning of a human body. Instead, it was like he had turned into a human figure condensed from flames, slowly merging with the mountain wall that had melted into black stone.

The dragon flame is blazing, and the flame formed by humans is equally blazing.

The dragon in the dragon's cave is roaring, and the dragon outside the dragon's cave is restless.

As the human figure formed by the flames gradually disappeared into the mountain wall, the entire mountain range seemed to have changed.

Starting from the mountains where the dragon's lair and Dragon's Nest City are located, the entire mountain range seems to be changing.

The snowfields of the far north.

On the huge ancient weirwood, a three-eyed raven let out a sharp cry.

The ice-blue flowers of the Heart of Winter begin to slowly bloom.

A sunless city on the black plains, a deserted palace in the great desert.

The remaining magicians and immortals all looked up in the direction of Westeros at the same time.

A black city in the primeval rainforest.

The lizard-like people began a bloody sacrifice.

In a trance, the world seemed to have undergone different changes.
