Accompanied by the morning sun, Blazing Shadow flapped his huge wings and flew into the dragon cave of Dragonstone with a roar.

The strong wind brought by the powerful wings stirred in the cave, making a series of low echoes, as if the dragon cave was whispering the story of the past.

After more than a hundred years, the ancient dragon cave once again welcomed the return of the dragon.

The dragon cave of Dragonstone is huge. Since the Targaryen family seized Dragonstone during the Doomsday, they have been expanding the dragon cave for hundreds of years. There are three huge stone platforms for dragon riders to board the dragon's back.

Each stone platform has been finely carved, with a smooth and flat surface, which provides great convenience for dragon riders to board the dragon's back.

The corridor connecting the dragon cave and the castle is ten meters wide. Even Viserion can easily enter and exit such a wide passage.

On the stone walls on both sides of the corridor, the ancient Targaryen family emblem - three-headed fire dragons are carved. The lifelike carvings seemed to tell the past glory and honor of the Targaryen family.

Gavin walked through this corridor full of historical charm and soon came to the map hall. There, he saw Daenerys there.

Seeing Gavin coming back, Daenerys's eyes as bright as gems showed concern and eagerness. She raised her chin slightly and asked: "What's the situation? Who won?"

Gavin looked calm and replied slowly: "Tywin won. I saw the White Harbor fleet retreating to the north. More than half of both sides were lost in this naval battle. King's Landing now has less than 20 warships that can move."

It has been more than a month since Gavin destroyed the royal fleet, and the situation afterwards was exactly as he expected.

Tywin and the Lannister fleet arrived in King's Landing first, followed by the White Harbor fleet led by Wylis Manderly.

Perhaps it was because of the Stepstones fleet wandering in the Narrow Sea and Ned Stark in the hands of the other side that the two sides did not engage in a naval battle at first, but were in a stalemate.

Willis Manderly kept sending envoys to the Iron Throne to demand the return of his fiefdom. However, Joffrey, who was already unscrupulous, had his grandfather's support at this time.

The envoys received only humiliation, and Joffrey even tried to cut off a pair of Ned Stark's ears and give them to these people from the North. Fortunately, Tywin stopped his crazy move in time.

The royal fleet that returned together also learned that Dragonstone was occupied by Gavin, and the Narrow Sea was completely controlled by the Stepstones fleet. Montford, Earl of Tidehead, was worried about the safety of Tidehead, and he hurried back to Tidehead without taking care of revenge for Stannis. His behavior also led other nobles, and the royal fleet loyal to Stannis split again.

Only a few warships led by Davos were left to support, and he couldn't help but fall into confusion. In a short time, he lost his fiefdom and the royal fleet he could rely on. After Dragonstone was occupied, he lost his retreat, and the group that was originally loyal to Stannis fell apart.

The two sides confronted each other for a month. The White Harbor fleet was forced to get no supplies and could not bring Ned back peacefully. In desperation, Willis Manderly launched an attack, trying to take back Ned Stark from King's Landing, but was defeated by the Lannister fleet relying on King's Landing and was forced to return to the North.

Hearing the name Tywin, Daenerys's delicate face wrinkled slightly, and a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes, as if there was a flame burning in it.

Her father was credulous in Tywin, so King's Landing was broken. The Lannister army not only looted King's Landing, but also brutally killed her sister-in-law and nephews and nieces whom she had never seen.

Daenerys asked: "In this case, King's Landing is controlled by Lannister, so should we take action?" Her voice was cold and firm, with a hint of urgency and worry.

After hearing this, Gavin smiled calmly, shook his head gently and said, "No hurry, since Tywin has entered King's Landing, he can't come out easily. He came to King's Landing by boat, and he didn't bring many troops. I had already asked Hassan to completely block the throat, and no ship could escape. He couldn't transfer troops from the Westerly, and there was a whole river between the two sides. King's Landing is now surrounded by enemies, and the only kingland that can be controlled is also unstable and turbulent." His words were steady and powerful, revealing full confidence and strategy.

After hearing this, Daenerys nodded slightly, and her silver hair like a waterfall swayed gently. She obviously agreed with Gavin's point of view, and then she took out a letter, the letter paper was as white as snow, and the edges were decorated with delicate patterns. She handed the letter to Gavin and said, "This is the information sent from the River Bay. The nobles of the Storm Land are already gathering their troops."

After Gavin took the letter, he read it carefully sentence by sentence. The letter was written by Margaery, and conveyed some intelligence and speculations from Lady Olenna.

Renly Baratheon sent ravens to all the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, claiming that Joffrey was a Lannister bastard born by the queen and her brother, and was neither Robert's son nor the heir to the Iron Throne. The Lannisters plotted to usurp the Iron Throne, murdered his brother Robert and Stannis, and imprisoned the Prime Minister Ned Stark. And he, Renly Baratheon, was the only legitimate heir to the Iron Throne, and called on all the nobles to send troops to fight against the traitors in King's Landing.

Renly proclaimed himself king at Storm's End, calling himself Renly I. Then he summoned his vassals and assembled his army.

Although he failed to gain the full support of the Reach as in the original plot, he still assembled 40,000 troops from the Stormlands and gathered at Bronzegate, ready to attack King's Landing at any time.

On the other hand, Tywin in King's Landing brought only 10,000 Lannister soldiers with him when he entered King's Landing. Together with the troops summoned from the crown and the capital garrison, the garrison of King's Landing only had 20,000 troops. Lady Olenna guessed that it would be difficult for the other side to defend King's Landing.

Tywin's brother Kevan Lannister, who was far away in the Westerlands, also recruited 40,000 troops to leave the Golden Tooth, but was met with stubborn resistance from the nobles of the Riverlands.

Although the Riverlands army led by Edmure Tully suffered repeated setbacks, it still successfully blocked the Westerlands' action to support King's Landing. I'm afraid that these reinforcements will find it difficult to support King's Landing in a short time.

Robb Stark, the acting lord of Winterfell, Ned Stark's eldest son and heir, has assembled 20,000 northern troops to march south, and is expected to have just passed the Neck at this moment. But if you want to quickly join the battlefield, you need to pass through the Twins. Lady Olenna guessed that he would most likely go directly to King's Landing from the Kingsroad to force Tywin to return his father.

Except for the Vale, all the other alliances of Deer, Wolf, Hawk and Fish have taken action.

The information about the Vale is unknown, but it is known that the Iron Throne has sent Petyr Baelish to the Eyrie.
