Game of Thrones: Lord of the Deep
Chapter 110 Westeros Conspicuous Bag
Three days flew by.
Sunspear is the castle of the Martell family and the capital of Dorne.
It is located north of the Greenblood River, on the southeastern coast of Westeros, surrounded by sea on three sides.
Fallingwater Gardens, the private residence of the Prince of Dorne, is located on the beach three leagues west of Sunspear, separated by a coastal road.
On this day, a huge ship of more than sixty meters came towards the dock of Sunspear City.
Countless businessmen and workers who were busy at the dock stopped and stopped to look at this huge ship.
Some of the traveling merchants recognized the Poseidon at a glance.
"This is the Poseidon! Why did the Poseidon come to Dorne?" A lean businessman said in shock.
"Poseidon, is that the name of this ship?" Some merchants and porters who didn't know asked.
The lean businessman suddenly felt a sense of superiority in his heart, laughed, and then said proudly:
"The Poseidon is the exclusive vehicle of the Atlantis Poseidon. It is said that the Poseidon always travels on the Poseidon.
Moreover, there are never any guards on the Poseidon. Except for the necessary sailors and nine royal guards, they are all young and beautiful maids.
The interior of the Poseidon is very luxurious. It is said that it is completely like a mobile palace on the sea, with rare treasures presented to the Poseidon by others placed everywhere. "
After listening to the lean businessman’s introduction, someone immediately asked:
"You're not lying, are you? There are no guards on the ship, and there are no fast boats following. How can Poseidon ensure his own safety?"
Speaking of this lean businessman, he became more energetic, "That's because you have never seen the world, and Poseidon can command it."
Before he could finish his words, a four- to five-meter red flag suddenly appeared on the bow of the Poseidon as it docked.
Before anyone could react, a dull roar came, and everyone saw clearly.
What kind of flag is that? It's clearly a giant red dragon.
Even though they had never seen a giant dragon in their lives, they knew it was a giant dragon when they first saw Colakxiu.
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and a large number of people began to run towards Sunspear City.
Standing in the crowd, the lean man was standing against the current, and suddenly there was an uncontrollable sense of nobility.
Then his eyes flashed, and after observing that there was indeed no clipper following the Poseidon, a bold idea came to him.
He wants to take this opportunity to become the Poseidon!
Even though there was a chance that he would be killed by the Poseidon's guards and fed to the fishes, he still had to take a gamble.
And I heard that the Poseidon was very friendly to the people when he was Prime Minister of Meereen, so he wouldn’t kill him directly, right?
At this time, Jack on the deck whistled gently, and Colakxiu immediately retracted obediently.
Jack then disembarked the ship with Colaxio and the Royal Guard.
He was in no hurry to enter the city. Although Westeros had guest rights, Jack did not want to enter Sunspear.
After all, guest rights are just a decoration. Although they are binding on most nobles, there are also the Frey family.
Although Jack has confidence in the credibility of the Martell family, he has no foundation in Westeros and does not have many guards.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall, so Jack cannot cause trouble for himself.
Everything he knew about the Martell family came from film and television novels, and it would be too rash to enter Sunspear City rashly.
So Jack looked at Sunspear City at the dock while waiting for the Martell family.
A dragon appears on the docks, and Doran Martell will definitely send someone to check it out.
At this time, Jack was looking at Sunspear City. It had to be said that Dorne had indeed undergone many changes since the Rhoynar people came here.
Sunspear is built of brown earth and straw.
It is located at the eastern end of a small sandy peninsula, surrounded by the sea on three sides. It is adjacent to the Shadow City to the west.
A triple meandering wall surrounds the castle and winds its way through the Shadow City.
The three gates arranged in sequence provide easy access to the inner city.
Visitors can reach the Palazzo Vecchio directly through the triple curved wall without having to walk several miles and wind around the maze-like town.
The Spear Tower and the Sun Tower rise from the Old Palace, symbolizing Martell's Spear and Rhoynar's Sun respectively.
The dark brown Sandship Castle was originally the Martell family's castle before Nymeria landed in Dorne, and is now part of Sunspear City.
It looks like a large sailing ship that was washed ashore and turned into stone, so it is called Sand Ship Castle.
The Shadow City to the west stretches westward in the shadow of the huge curved wall of Sunspear.
Adobe shops and windowless huts attached to the lower walls, while stables, inns, taverns, and brothels were further west, some with their own walls. The new house is attached to the neighbor's wall.
Repeatedly, year after year, Shadow City has reached its current size.
Although the Dornish people called it a city, it was no more than a small town, a strange, dirty, ugly town.
The narrow streets in the city are intricate and intricate, like a maze.
The bazaars are filled with spices from Dorne and the further east of the world.
The characteristic Dornish houses made of adobe remain cool even in the hot sun.
The Triple Curved Wall was built about 700 years ago.
A total of three walls surround Sunspear and snake through the Shadow City, forming a defensive partition wall.
They can disorient the bravest of enemies.
It is worth mentioning that there are also triple gates, which are heavily guarded and arranged in sequence, providing a convenient way to the inner city.
Visitors can directly pass through the three curved walls and reach the Old Palace without having to walk several miles and detour through the maze-like town.
In addition, there are famous buildings such as the Old Palace, the Spear Tower, the Sun Tower, and the Sand Ship Fort.
Spear Tower: The slender Spear Tower is 150 feet high, with a gilded iron spike on the top, adding another 30 feet to the height of the tower.
The Spear Tower represents the spear of the Martell family.
Sun Tower:
The sturdy Sun Tower has a golden arch and leaded glass.
Under the arch is the throne room, a round room with thick windows and stained glass.
The floor is paved with pale marble.
There are two almost identical seats on the high platform in the throne room, one of which has the golden spear symbol of the Martell family on the back, and the other has the sun pattern of Rhoyna on the back.
As for the Old Palace and Sandship Castle, they are not very ornamental, but more of a commemorative and symbolic significance.
Whether in Jack's impression or in the history of the Seven Kingdoms, Dorne has always been an eye-catcher.
When Aerys II visited Sunspear, he also proposed a wonderful idea to the then Dorne Princess - digging underground canals under the Red Mountains to transfer the abundant water resources of the rainforest to the south and irrigate the desert of Dorne.
Jack had to sigh that Aerys II was so smart that he thought of transferring water from the north to the south!
At the same time, Dorne also had many frictions with the Tyrell family on the border. The border grievances between the two families have a long history, but they rarely broke out into full-scale wars.
