Game of Thrones Overlord Conquest
Chapter 161 Prelude to War
In the Dothraki Holy City, there is a path paved with black stones. Astapor Messenger Gale and his party are walking west along this path with great excitement.
The buildings on both sides are getting more and more luxurious. As the night gets darker, there are more and more lights, and the whole city seems to be submerged in the sea of stars.
Finally, they came to the outside of a white mansion. In front of them was the courtyard gate facing south, and on both sides were strong walls with many lights hanging on them.
Gale, feeling anxious and excited, stepped forward and knocked on the door. After saying a few words, the door was opened.
There were only two young attendants standing behind the door. He didn't see any sign of guards. The group of people walked into the courtyard unobstructed, and the door was closed immediately.
They walked across a porch to a lawn and saw a sparkling pool before them.
The pool was illuminated by many oil lamps hanging on nearby branches, shimmering like silver silk with golden light.
There were three soldiers sitting there. When they saw someone approaching, they immediately stood up.
Gale noticed that none of them had braids, and that they were all wearing gray chain mail and long yellow cloaks.
"These three are also guests of Officer Orver, knights of the Golden Order."
An attendant came over and said to Gale very politely:
"Sir Bened Beren is inside, and the steward would like your Excellency to come in and have a chat with them.
"You stay here!" Gale turned around, arranged his companions, and walked forward impatiently.
Along the way, he met many people wearing scholar's robes. The colors and patterns of these people's clothes were different from each other.
He stayed in the Holy City for a long time and visited more than a dozen Dothraki dignitaries. He knew that colors were equivalent to rank and status, and patterns symbolized responsibilities.
When Gale reached the end of the courtyard, he came to a tall house. Although this place was not as good as the pyramid synagogue, it still looked quite spectacular, like a giant ship sailing on the green sea.
He followed the attendant and walked in. The bright light like day immediately stung his eyes. When his vision recovered slightly, he found himself standing in a rectangular hall.
The surrounding walls are white and silver, and the roof is gold. There are many people sitting in the center, most of them are Dothraki leaders he has visited.
Sitting at the end of the hall were Ofer and Bas Potter. The two stood up to welcome the guests in accordance with the etiquette for receiving foreign envoys. They were both very serious and wore dark brown robes, which was the most noble color of Dothraki.
Ofer's hair was snow-white, and Bass Potter's hair was also gray and white and bright silver. Time had severely scratched their faces, but Gale did not dare to look down on them.
The reason lies in their eyes. Both pairs of eyes are as sharp and shining as spear points on a moonlit night. Time has left them with profound wisdom.
The attendant led Gale to the two of them. The maester welcomed him in Dothraki language, while the steward Ofer said nothing and just stared at his face.
"Welcome, Gale, the messenger of Astapor, please sit down!" Bass Potter said kindly:
"More than two months have passed in the blink of an eye. Judging from your appearance, these two months have been really torturous for you."
"But, whether it's good or bad, the end is coming soon. Let's put your heavy burden down for now. Now that everyone is here, let's have a good talk."
"The Great Kaa has officially signed a decree to send troops to intervene in the war in Slaver's Bay."
After hearing the good news in person from Bachelor Bas Potter, Gale clenched his fists in excitement, and his heart was filled with joy.
But before he could salute and use diplomatic vocabulary to express his gratitude for Astapor, Ofo sat back and said sarcastically:
"Yes! Your Majesty the Messenger is a big shot with a title, how could he not have any burden?"
"However, as for what title it is, we don't know."
These words caused a roar of laughter, and Gale immediately blushed and lowered his head. He was sent by King Cleon as an envoy to Vaes Dothraki to meet with Mongo.
However, neither he nor the "butcher" king had any education and did not understand diplomatic etiquette. The king only rewarded him with many jewels and dressed him up to be extremely noble, but forgot to give him a title that truly symbolized his status.
For example, Ofer is the Dothraki leader of thousands of households and palace affairs officer. If he goes abroad on behalf of the Dothraki, the other party will understand the extent of the diplomatic incident and will send ministers with the same status as him. Accompanying reception.
This is of course not the key reason for Ofer's sarcasm. After all, Gale is the king's envoy. As long as the envoy country does not find it offensive and does not openly point out matters like titles, both parties can still get by on the surface.
The truth is that the Astapor envoy was too stingy. He wore a lot of expensive jewelry to visit the steward, but only gave a pair of slippers as a gift, and then tried to propose an alliance between the two parties. Since then, this is the first time he has stepped into this place. house without being kicked out.
"I'm sorry. Please forgive me, Lord Ofer." Gale was very worried in his heart. He was afraid that this important Dothraki court official would disrupt the situation again, so he immediately bowed deeply.
"Don't worry, once the great Kaa's decree is issued, it will not be changed." Bachelor Bass Potter's voice was gentle, comforting Gale, and personally stepped forward to help him sit down.
They had already forced Astapor to sign a series of unequal treaties, all they needed to do was write that the king would be appointed by the Dothraki. There was really no need to push too hard.
After Gale sat down peacefully, the bachelor turned around and looked at everyone, and said with a very solemn expression:
"The situation in Slaver's Bay has changed again. Yunkai emissaries are spreading vicious rumors, slandering the reputation of Astapor and the great Khal, and bribing Volantis and Qarth to join the war."
"There is a red wasteland between us and Qarth. There is no news from there yet, but our allies have brought the latest intelligence from Volantis. Their election has ended, and two new Tiger Party members have been born. Archon, that's why they declared war on Astapor."
"For three hundred years, the Volantis Elephant Party's rule has come to an end. The Volantis fleet of more than 300 warships is ready to go to Slaver's Bay. Once we join the war, they will start a full-scale war with the Dothraki. "
Upon hearing this situation, all the warriors in the hall became very surprised and excited. Bened Beilein stood up first to express his determination and deliberately used Dothraki:
"This is an evil war. The Seven Gods hate and prohibit the practice of slavery. If Astapor hires the Golden Company, we are willing to fight for those who long for freedom and fight for the faith."
Gale is a very funny little character in the original work. In the original work, he went to Meereen to meet Daenerys for the first time, proposed that Daenerys marry Cleon the "Butcher", and then sent troops to help Astapor resist. Yunkai, this is really six.
Later, he came again. It is said that he was given many titles and became a big shot. I don’t know what titles they were. Anyway, he met Daenerys (if there is no title, or the title is not legal, you can think of the TV series, Joan The picture of En meeting Daenerys.), but he himself dressed in fancy clothes, gave Daenerys a pair of slippers, and proposed an alliance, but was decisively rejected.
Finally, Cleon went to fight Yunkai and returned with a great defeat. He went to see Daenerys again. After being rejected, he spat at Daenerys angrily and was caught by the strong man Belwas and threw him to the ground. , the beating was miserable.
There is loyalty, but this person is not very good.
