This is a very ordinary looking half-hand sword, with a half-curved guard and a rough and hard black handle. The blade is more than one meter long, covered with rust and many cracks.

The heavy rain stopped in the morning, and the sun was shining outside the window at this moment, but when it shone on the surface of the long sword on the table, it did not reflect any light. It was not because of the rust, but because the sword itself was very special.

However, in comparison, Renly was more curious about another object fished out of the lake -

a gray-white bird skull.

After returning to the castle, his wet clothes had long been replaced with dry pajamas. Sitting on the chair in front of the table, fiddling with the half-palm-sized bird bone in his hand, Renly pondered.

He could feel a special power contained in this skull. Holding it in his hand subtly aroused a certain characteristic in his body, making him always feel attracted to this bird skull.

In fact, it was this bird bone that led him to the lake!

This attraction was very strange, as if there was a piece of iron in his body, and the bird skull in his hand was a magnet. The iron in his body was constantly being attracted by the magnet. It was not strong, but it was effective anytime and anywhere.

Renly was unfamiliar with this situation, but he felt familiar with the power contained in the bird skull in his hand. After thinking for a while, he looked at the Naga mark on his left wrist.

The power in the bird skull was very similar to the fire breath contained in the Naga mark!

"Is it also divinity? Is this bird bone the remains of a god? Like the Naga ribs in the Iron Islands?"

Renly guessed secretly.

After watching for five days, seeing that the rainstorm was really unstoppable, he followed this attraction and walked out of the castle, and finally jumped into the lake.

What happened next was very simple. Following the "sound", he picked up the bird skull that attracted him from the lake, as well as the sword stuck in the mud next to the bird skull.

Then when he jumped out of the lake, the heavy rain outside stopped.

Obviously, the storm is obviously related to the bird bone in his hand.

Renly has a lot of associations from this.

The rainstorm caused by the bird bone to lead him over is obviously similar to the curse he carries, or even exactly the same. Does that mean that the power contained in the bird bone is the source of the curse in his body?

In other words, the curse power in the body and the power in the bird bone are of the same origin?

Because of the same origin, they are mutually inductive?

The evidence is not limited to this, there are also some ancient legends.

In the legend of the Stormland, the Storm's End inherited by the Baratheon family was built by Durren, the first storm king in ancient times. Durren secretly married the daughter of the sea god and the wind god, Yinni, which angered the two gods and killed the whole family by the storm.

In order to fight against the two gods, Durren began to build Storm's End, but it was constantly destroyed by the storms brought by the gods.

However, he was not discouraged. He destroyed one castle and rebuilt one, and so on and so forth until the seventh castle, which is the current one, was built. He successfully contained the storm at sea and kept the anger of the gods out of the castle.

Then Durren lived happily in Storm's End with the goddess Ine for a thousand years.

In the eyes of many people, this story is just a story, but considering the inexplicable curse on his body, Renly was skeptical about it - maybe there is indeed a substance in Baratheon's blood that provokes the anger of the gods, and this substance awakened in his body?

The gods in the story are the goddess of wind and the god of the sea. They have no names, and no believers have been heard of, but their power is obviously related to storms.

And Renly also knew about another god, the God of Storms.

The God of Storms is one of the only two gods in the culture of the Iron Islands, and is an evil villain who has always been against the Drowned God.

In the legend, there is not much description of the God of Storms, and what Renly paid special attention to are two sentences - living in the hall in the clouds, and crows are his servants.

Renly believed that the Storm God was actually a crow in ancient times, not a servant.

Because when he watched the flashback of Naga's memory in the Iron Islands, he saw that the fire of Naga, or the divinity of the Drowned God, was actually extinguished by a crow.

And now, the bird skull in his hand seems to be the skull of a crow...

"The curse on me is related to the storm. Legend has it that the first Storm King in ancient times angered the gods of the sea and brought about the storm. The Storm God in the legend of the Iron Islands is related to crows. This bird bone can also bring about storms, which seems to have the same origin as the curse... Are the two gods in the legend of the Storm Land actually the Storm God in the Iron Islands? Are they actually one, not two? Is the Storm God a crow that has been dead for a long time? Its head is in my hand now?"

Looking intently at the gray-white bird bone in his hand, Renly felt that this guess seemed quite reliable, but he still had some doubts about it.

A simple bird bone cannot have power. The only thing that has power is the divinity of the gods.

However, although there is a divine breath in this bone, it seems incomplete.

Was it broken apart?

Was the curse in his body formed by a wisp of its divinity? So it can cause a storm?

No one can answer this question. Renly doesn't think he can guess the exact truth just by guessing. So after thinking about it, he simply ignored it for the time being and turned to look at the long sword on the table.

If it is true as he guessed, this bird bone is the remains of the storm god, then what is the sword that killed this bird?

There weren't many clues, but considering the island they were on, there were some clues.

Renly remembered that when he was a child at Storm's End, Maester Cressen told him a story about the island of Tarth, and there seemed to be a sword in that story.

So he went out to ask around and successfully learned the details of the story from a maid.

"All of us on Tarth Island are descendants of Sir Garedon. Do you know who Sir Garedon is? Sir, he is a brave warrior, and even the virgin goddess in the sky is attracted to him. So the goddess gave him a magic sword as a token of love. According to legend, the sword is called the Lady of Justice. It is very sharp and no weapon or shield can resist it. Because this sword is so powerful, the proud Sir Garedon has only used it three times in his life, and never once on mortals, because it would make the battle unfair... Sir Garedon is really a perfect knight, Sir. I heard that you are also a knight? I feel that you must be a very powerful knight."

"Do you need to maintain your weapons? Maybe I can help you..."

...

Just as Renly was trying hard to explore the origins of the two things on Tarth Island, some people far away in King's Landing were surprised by the letter he had written before.

"Captured Viserys Targaryen?"

Staring blankly at the letter in his hand, the fat Minister of Finance Mace Tyrell at the table in front of the royal meeting stared, "How is this possible?"
