Game of Thrones: Holy Flame King
Chapter 61
"Mom, what a big change here!"
Natalie held her mother Nora's arm, looked around with her vivid purple eyes, and finally let out a sigh of emotion.
"It's really big."
The mother and daughter walked on the flat stone road of Yingzui Islet, looking at the busy savages passing by, as well as the neat wooden houses, towers, and castles rising from the ground, they seemed to be coming here in a trance. Arrived in a busy city.
It's hard to imagine that just a few months ago, this place was just a barren and inhabited valley.
Natalie wanted to see the castle, which had its foundations laid and walls about three feet high, but was dragged away by her mother to the orphanage.
The yard is not big, it is simply surrounded by a fence, and there are more than a dozen wooden houses built inside. Hundreds of children gathered in the square surrounded by the houses, the older ones are eleven or twelve years old, and the younger ones are only three or four years old. .
They were all dressed in shabby animal skin clothes, shaking their heads and singing:
"Heavenly Father has a firm and strong face, adjudicates wrongs and upholds justice, judges the length of life and longevity, and loves children with kindness;
The Holy Mother brings the blessing of life, guards and takes care of every woman, her smile ends the fight, and she tenderly cares for the little children;
The warrior stands before the enemy..."
Nora knew that this was the song of the Seven Gods.
For this, she was not surprised. After all, the lord was a knight of the Seven Gods, and he would definitely spread the belief of the Seven Gods in the territory, which is understandable.
Moreover, the other party did not use strong means to force all the citizens to convert to the Seven Gods, which is already very kind.
There are many elderly people around this group of children. Some of them sing along, some bask in the sun with squinted eyes, and some do simple handicrafts... However, these people are full of smiles on their faces. Come and be happy with life here.
After the song of the Seven Gods was sung, the children skillfully changed another song.
Nora hadn't heard this song before, but after listening to it for a while, she realized that it was actually a song praising the young lord, and the lyrics were quite explicit, thanking the lord for giving us food, thanking the lord for giving us shelter, We are forever grateful...
"Mother, that lord is really not ashamed! He actually asked someone to write a song for himself." Natalie whispered in her mother's ear.
Nora also wanted to laugh, but she still defended the other party: "However, he is not bragging. These old people and children have been well taken care of."
Natalie's small mouth under the veil pouted, but did not refute.
After watching for a while, the mother and daughter left the orphanage and headed for the lord's cabin.
"Lord Caesar."
"Haha, Mrs. Nora, I've been looking forward to you for a long time!" Samwell warmly stood up and welcomed you.
He glanced at the little girl next to Nora who was almost printed out of a mold, and said clearly:
"This must be your daughter?"
"Yes, this is my daughter, Natalie."
Natalie bowed her knees and bowed to Samwell, and then retreated behind her mother, only curiously looking at the young River Bend nobleman in front of her with her vivid purple eyes.
Samwell smiled gently at the little girl, and then asked Nora:
"Madam Nora, have you found the ghost grass I want?"
Nora nodded, and handed over an animal skin bag: "We found a total of fifty-four plants this time."
Samwell quickly took it, opened it and saw that it was indeed the Ghost Grass that he ate before, which could increase spiritual attributes, nodded in satisfaction, and then took the corresponding silver deer and handed it to Nora without counting it in detail.
Nora took the silver deer, thanked her again, and then asked:
"Master Caesar, there is something I want to discuss with you."
"You say."
"I want the elderly and children of the Youya tribe to stay in your orphanage. I don't know what price we need to pay for this?"
Samwell smiled and said, "The orphanage is for my subjects, so as long as you become my subjects, that's fine."
Nora pondered for a moment, then shook her head in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, sir, it's not that we don't want to submit, but that the Wandering Crows have always only served the old gods, so...however, we can pay money, or ghost grass, animal skins, meat Dry……"
Samwell interrupted: "Surrendering to me does not prevent you from continuing to serve the old gods. You should be clear that I have never forced my subjects to convert to the seven gods. You can even continue your old way of life, as long as you continue to serve the old gods on a regular basis." Just pay my taxes."
Nora's eyes still struggled.
Seeing this, Samwell said again:
"If you really don't want to surrender, there is another way."
"any solution?"
Samwell pointed to the little girl who was shrinking behind her mother: "Let your daughter stay in Yingzui Island, so that I can safely accept the old people and children of the Youya tribe into the orphanage. Don't worry, I will treat her like my own sister."
When Natalie heard this, her eyes widened immediately, her hands tightly clutching her mother's sleeves, like a frightened deer.
Nora hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, I need to think about it before I give you an answer."
"Yes." Samwell nodded, "I will set off for Starfall City in three days, just give me an answer before then."
When talking about Starfall City, Samwell stared closely at Nora's eyes, and sure enough, he noticed a well-hidden fluctuation.
It seems that this Nora may really be Ashara Dayne, and her so-called memory loss is probably just a lie.
But then there was a question - since Ashara didn't lose her memory, why didn't she go back to Starfall City?
Are mountains more comfortable than castles?
"Okay, I will give you an answer as soon as possible." Nora turned around and left the hut with her daughter as if nothing had happened.
Once outside, Natalie hugged her mother's arm and shouted:
"Mother, I don't want to stay here! I want to follow you all the time!"
"Stupid child. How could you have been following me?" Nora's eyes flickered with a lonely expression, she pointed to the castle under construction in front of her, "Didn't you always want to live in a majestic castle? Follow me no."
"Then I will live in the castle with you too!"
"Natalie, listen to me." Nora's expression became serious, "We have been taken care of by the Crow Tribe for more than ten years, and it's time to give back to them. Besides, it's better for you to stay in Yingzui Island It's better for me to run around in the mountains..."
"I don't! I'm going to follow you everywhere!" Natalie's voice was already crying.
Na stretched her hands to wipe away the crystals from the corners of her daughter's eyes, but she didn't expect to wipe away more and more.
But her tone is still strong: "Natalie, you are different from me. You do not belong to this mountain forest, but should soar in a wider world. I once heard the whisper of the gods under the heart tree, He should treat you There are other arrangements."
Natalie threw herself into her mother's arms, weeping uncontrollably.
Nora caressed her daughter's hair, looked up to the northeast——
Her eyes seemed to cross the vast bay and saw the castle with the purple flag flying.
Complicated emotions filled Nora's heart, making her speechless for a moment.
I just said silently in my heart——
I can't go back, but hope...
can you go back...
Thanks to the boss "Miracle_Hughes" for the reward!
