Game of Thrones: Lord of Winter
Chapter 53 Awakening
"The sea brings fire, brings winged monsters, I know, I know, oh oh oh!" Patchface sang loudly in the castle early in the morning, and everyone knew he was a fool.
Patchface was a jester brought back from Volantis in Essos by Stannis's father, Stannis Baratheon. At that time, Duke Stannis went to Essos with the purpose of selecting a queen, that is, to find a wife with a suitable bloodline for Crown Prince Rhaegar. In order to maintain the purity of Valyrian bloodline in the Targaryen family, intermarriage is often practiced among relatives.
The queens married by the Conqueror Aegon Targaryen I were his sisters, Sania Targaryen and Rhaenys 1 Targaryen.
At that time, Rhaegar was of marriageable age but had no relatives or sisters, so the Mad King 'Aerys II' sent Duke Stannis of Storm's End across the Narrow Sea to the next continent to find the silver-haired and purple-eyed Valyrian bloodline.
After all, everyone knows that the Targaryen family flew over from across the Narrow Sea on a dragon.
The history of the Valyrians riding dragons to conquer the continent of Essos is long gone. The island of Valyria has now become a cursed land, but many Valyrian bloodlines are still scattered throughout the continent of Essos, spreading their silver-haired and purple-eyed genes.
Patchface and Duke Stephen encountered a storm while crossing the Narrow Sea. The Duke's Proud Wind ran aground and sank, right in front of Stannis and Robert within the sight of Storm's End. The Duke and his wife, as well as more than a hundred soldiers and sailors on the ship, were all dead.
Only three days later, Patchface was washed ashore by the waves. Some people said that he was saved by a mermaid. There are often legends and sightings about mermaids on the coast, but many scholars in the Citadel do not agree.
After being rescued, Patchface became mentally retarded and lost his memory. He was happy all day long, singing strange songs that people could not understand.
He jumped up and down, and the bells of the tin bucket antler helmet jingled, making a joyful sound.
The little princess Shireen followed behind him. In the eyes of others, this princess was also a monster. Half of her face was covered with gray-black dead skin, which came from a disease called grayscale, which is a deadly virus and is also contagious.
So the people in the castle were afraid to avoid this little princess.
Patchface ran out of the castle. In the gap when the guard opened the door, he got out of the castle gate and went somewhere unknown. Princess Shireen, who was chasing him, couldn't catch up with him and could only worry on the spot.
The little princess didn't know how long she thought in her mind, and she finally found her mother, Lady Selyse Florent, who believed in the Lord of Light R'hllor.
When the guards of Dragonstone Island found Patchface, he was standing by a rocky shore, with red and green tattoos on his face. He was singing and dancing there, and then someone found a person lying on the shore.
"The monster in the stone came out, came out, I know, I know, oh oh oh." The guards heard Patchface singing his strange ballad again.
In the table hall, Stannis was looking at the map in a trance. At this time, someone pushed the door open. It was his wife, Selyse. She had protruding ears, a thin body, a pointed face, light eyes, and a stern mouth. Her appearance was far from that of a beauty.
"My majesty, the great Lord of Light." Selyse greeted her husband softly. Their relationship was no different from that of ice. They rarely communicated in daily life. Stannis preferred to stay with his knights all day.
"What's the matter?" His voice was as light as water, and even a little distant. Facing his calm eyes, Selyse didn't know how to start for a while.
"My patience is limited. If it's about the Lord of Light, go and talk to Melisandre."
"No, it's our daughter, your majesty." Selyse smiled, hoping to ease the cold atmosphere. "Her fool patch picked up another person from the sea."
These words reminded Stannis of some not-so-good memories.
"One fool in the castle is enough." Stannis was not interested in listening to a fool.
"Shireen hopes he can stay. You know our daughter has no friends." Although he is a fool who can't speak, his behavior is at least not as weird as that of the jester.
"Then leave him here. Dragonstone can support two fools." As long as he talked about his daughter, Stannis' eyes would flash with some different expressions.
"Shireen will be very happy, of course if you can come to see him." Now the only one who can connect the couple is their daughter.
Stannis nodded.
And on the coast, behind a huge rock, a white shadow flashed. His blue eyes kept staring at the figures on the coast.
Cole saw them lift his body up, and then he didn't know where he went. He didn't know where this was? And what did he become?
When Cole saw his appearance in the reflection of the sea, a silver-white dragon!
He couldn't help but touch the dragon's head with his front paws. It was soft and he could even feel the cartilage inside. He opened his mouth and blew out a gentle white mist. The temperature was not enough to even cook an egg.
Suddenly he felt hungry. He instinctively wanted to find his eggshell, but he didn't know where the eggshell was washed away when he was on the sea.
Hunger quickly made him feel weak, his head was dizzy, and his body became top-heavy.
After taking two steps, he wanted to lie down.
Suddenly, several seabirds flapped their wings and surrounded him. Cole's eyes suddenly rolled up, and then he didn't move.
The seabirds jumped and circled around him, then stretched out their beaks to peck at his body.
Suddenly, the dragon head turned, and Cole bit the bird's neck tightly, and the other birds were scared away. The bitten seabird flapped its wings and kicked Cole madly with its claws, but he just held on tightly and refused to let go.
He bit hard for an unknown period of time until the seabird was motionless. When he let go, he saw that the seabird tilted its head, deader than dead.
Hunger made him open his mouth and tear the skin and flesh of the seabird, swallowing the feathers and blood along with the bird meat, and even not spitting out the bones.
He felt satisfied only after eating the whole bird, and after he was full, he felt sleepy, and suddenly it seemed as if a huge thought was summoning in his mind.
The dragon closed his eyes, opened his eyes, and two worlds appeared in front of him in an instant.
At this moment, in a room in the main castle of Dragonstone Island, the originally white pupils began to surge with color, a deep violet. Cole looked at the unfamiliar room in front of him, and at the same time, he saw a coastline with rolling waves.
So, all this is not a dream!!!
