Game of Thrones: King of Harrenhal, starting with a blue hand stat panel

Escorted by his guards, Arthur followed them to the Lord's Tower of Harrenhal, the Tower of the Burning King.

The Harrenhal guards are bound to the Harrenhal family, and their loyalty far exceeds that of free knights, hired riders, or mercenaries.

The Tower of the Burning King is the tallest and largest tower in Harrenhal, and its original name was lost to history after the death of "Blackheart Harren" during the conquest wars.

The name was given to Harren and his son after Aegon the Conqueror's dragon Balerion burned them alive in the tower.

The direct knights of Harrenhal typically wear black armor with a yellow robe or cloak over it, which is the color of the Harrenhal family.

The emblem of the Hean people is nine black bats on a yellow background, and the black bats are related to the earlier Rostan family.

The Hean family were formerly knights loyal to the Rothstan family, whose coat of arms is a large black bat on a background of gold and silver diagonally divided.

Arthur speculated that the inheritance of this black bat emblem might be because the River family were distant relatives or young children of the Rostan family.

Black and yellow are also the colors of the current royal Baratheon family.

The Baratheon emblem is a proud black crowned stag on a yellow background. Robert has now married Cersei Lannister, and it was a grand marriage.

The marriage alliance with the wealthy and powerful Westerlands was spearheaded by King Robert's foster father, Jon Arryn. Everyone believed that this marriage would solidify Robert's rule, but no one expected that Robert would turn from a stag into a green stag.

This marriage was destined to cause mountains of corpses and seas of blood in Westeros, and Arthur was naturally taking advantage of the situation.

I am not yet strong; when I am strong, things will change.

Harrenhal is a battleground, and it is indeed dangerous if you don't plan ahead. Fortunately, there are still some years to develop.

Although Arthur was young, he had a great talent for knight training, and he did not waste his name as Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Dawn.

Today's guest from Harrenhal is Lucas Dane, a swordsman from the White Sword Tower of Starfall City, and a distant relative of Earl Dane.

The current head of House Dane is the elder brother of Arthur Dane, the Sword of the Morning, Ashara Dane, the First Beauty of Dorne, and Aria Dane.

The Dane family has a long history, is known for its bravery and skill in battle, and has produced many famous knights.

They are powerful and proud, renowned for their legendary swordsmanship, the "Dawn Sword," and their clan sword, "Dawn."

The Dane family was also the designated victim of another ancient family, the Hightower family of Old Town in the Reach.

Samwell Dane, the "King of the Turbulent River" and "Starfire," once stormed Oldtown and looted it.

During the War of Dorne, Joffrey Dayne led his troops to burn the fields, farms, and villages within a twenty-mile radius of Oldtown. Garman Hightower, the youngest son of Earl Hightower, was killed by Joffrey when he led his army to meet the attack.

Logically speaking, the Riverlands and Dorne are completely unrelated, and it would be difficult for the Riverlands family to have any connection with Dorne.

Sir Oswell's previous career as a Kingsguard left the River Anne family with some connections.

Arthur understood the guest's purpose: this visitor was an envoy of Earl Dane, and possibly his future swordsmanship instructor and protector.

Everything is for the sake of defending the family's honor; a weak person cannot protect the family business.

Wealth, power, and prestige are all important to a family. Without wealth, it is impossible to gather people together, and without excellent knights, it is impossible to attract free knights and adventurers.

Although the Dornish people's identity is still somewhat special, traveling between the Seven Kingdoms is no longer a problem.

At the beginning of this year, the new Hand of the King, Jon Arryn, the King's foster father, went to Sunspear, returned the remains of Prince Leven Martell, and began peace talks with Prince Doran Martell of Dorne.

On paper, the Seven Kingdoms are once again unified. But the Martell family is destined to be unable to obtain Gregor Clegane, the "Mountain," and Amory Lodge, whom they desire, and will be unable to avenge Princess Martell and her children.

Jon Arryn was essentially a patchwork repairman, patching up the existing dynasty; the Martell family's demands were quite unreasonable for him.

It's simply that Yangji City is no longer willing to associate with the Iron Throne, and there's a layer of hypocritical compromise between the two sides.

In any case, the Dornish army cannot go out alone, and the Iron Throne's army will also have to pay a heavy price to advance on Dornish.

The Burning King Tower, with yellow flags fluttering atop the tall tower.

The dragon's flames caused the tower to tilt to one side. A stone arch bridge connects it to the Widow's Tower.

The lord's room and study are inside the tower.

Arthur entered the lord's study in the Tower of the Burning King. This room was also unusually large, which was a major feature of Harrenhal—the castle was large, and so were the rooms.

Besides the old Earl Walter Hoan, who was dressed in a yellow brocade robe, there was another elderly man with long arms and legs and strong muscles.

The hair of elderly people is black with some white.

Purple eyes are a characteristic of the Dane family.

Judging from the old knight's appearance, he is a typical Starfall City swordsman.

"Sir Lucas, this is my grandson, Arthur River, heir to Harrenhal, Earl of Whitewall," Earl Walter introduced.

"Come forward, boy." Sir Lucas beckoned Arthur forward, sizing him up by his height, wingspan, and leg length.

"Show me your thrust? Show me a few moves," Sir Lucas said, then tossed Arthur a lighter sword.

Arthur didn't stand on ceremony; he drew his practice sword and demonstrated it in the room.

Sir Lucas was immediately impressed; Arthur was agile and strong, and his talent was indeed exceptional.

"He's a promising talent," Lucas nodded and said.

There is only one Dawn Sword, but Lucas is confident that he can make Arthur an excellent knight as well.

"Bring us some wine, Arthur. You have to thank Sir Lucas; he will be your swordsmanship instructor from now on. Sir Lucas once taught the Morning Stars and is an excellent swordsman," said Earl Walter.

"It's my pleasure." Arthur opened the Dorne Summer Red and poured a glass of wine for each of them.

This is something that noble children are good at. They start as waiters when they are young, and begin to be subtly influenced by power.

"Lord Walter, you needn't exaggerate. The Dawn Swordsman wasn't just taught; he possesses both talent and hard work. I'm not doing this solely because of your request, but because this child truly has exceptional talent and a solid foundation." Lucas clinked glasses with Earl Walter and downed his wine in one gulp.

"How is Lord Dane now?" Earl Walter asked.

"That's how it is. It's normal for him to be frustrated because the family is dwindling, but he still has to maintain the prestige of the Dane family, and the family doesn't have a suitable heir yet," Lucas said, wiping the wine stains from the corner of his mouth.

Walter fell silent. Although the war was over, the rifts it had created remained.

"It's still better than us," Walter said with a wry smile.

Although the Dornish were defeated, the Iron Throne did not severely punish them because of their position.

Those who were close to the emperor were almost all severely punished.

"Our future still lies with the young people," Sir Lucas said.

Arthur stayed by the two's side. The future the elders were talking about now was not rebellion, but rather recovering their strength and continuing to live a quiet life.

For these Rega supporters, their spirits were utterly defeated.

The Royalists' situation has hit rock bottom and seems stagnant, but Arthur firmly believes that a turning point is still possible.

First, he knew the future plot, that the seven kingdoms would be thrown into chaos.

Secondly, Arthur also has his own system panel, a powerful cheat code.

A cyan data stream panel appeared in front of Arthur, with metallic entries flashing.

This is his career panel.
