Game of Thrones: Viserys the Three-Headed Dragon

Chapter 52 Dreams and Questions about Dragonstone

Daenerys had long been accustomed to the dark curtain hanging in the sky in her dreams.

She was looking at herself. She lowered her head and saw that her whole body was covered with extinguished flames. The flames wrapped her, cleansed her, and trained her without causing her any pain. She felt her muscles burnt and blackened under the flames, necrotized and peeled off, and she felt her blood boiling and evaporating.

In a trance, she had a strange feeling of breaking out of the shell and being reborn. In her dream, she felt a certain power in herself. It was a strange feeling.

She tried to feel and use it.

She suddenly found herself floating on the sea.

She remembered that dream.

She looked forward and saw Viserys opening his arms to her on the island with a dragon-shaped castle.

She turned back and there was nothing there.

She woke up.

As soon as Daenerys woke up, she subconsciously turned her head to look at the other end of the suite where Viserys was. There was a screen with gorgeous paintings across the room, so she couldn't see what was happening on Viserys' side. Dany really wished she could climb onto her brother's bed without any scruples like when she was a child, and listen to him tell her what her dream just now meant, just like he told her the story of the Seven Kingdoms when she was a child.

——

It must be said that after Dany told her that something was obviously wrong, it was a risky move to let her continue to contact the dragon soul.

But after Viserys dealt with the curse on his hand, he still chose to let Daenerys contact the dragon soul. He had to take this risk. Although only the Red God and the Cold God showed divine power in the original book of Ice and Fire, it did not mean that he could relax his vigilance in the mystery.

The greater the power, the more calmly he could deal with unknown dangers.

There were still many jewelry stores and weapon stores in Tyroshi that he had not visited, and Viserys's liver was only one step away from being completely transformed into a dragon.

Viserys needed absolutely reliable power to give himself enough confidence.

And on this day. On the thirteenth day of their arrival in Tyroshi, Viserys used the otherworldly magic extracted from the dragon soul in the dragon bones as a medium to completely transform his liver into a dragon. His liver has now become his first magic center, through which he can use magic to construct a complete dragon body.

Although the current magic power is not enough to support the construction of a body that is too large, the complete dragon body, even if it is only three or four meters, the complete magic organs and hard shell inside can allow Viserys to fully use the power of the flame Guliok when he has magic.

And there is also good news. Viserys was originally worried that after the liver was completely transformed into a magic dragon, no matter how much magic he had, he might have to choose one of the dragon scales, horns, and wings to grow and store, but the actual situation is that the liver can continue to store magic.

This is probably because the current dragon liver has not yet reached the level of a monster material that will not dissipate in the world even if Viserys dies. You know, in Hyrule, the liver of Guliok will not necessarily remain in the world after the ordinary Guliok is destroyed. It is extremely unlikely to get a dragon liver from an ordinary Guliok. Only when the King of Guliok dies will the liver remain.

This made Viserys feel more relaxed, because dragon scales, wings and horns are not easy to hide.

As soon as Viserys woke up, he turned over in bed and looked carefully in the direction of Daenerys. Daenerys did not behave abnormally, but it was better to confirm it.

With this in mind, Viserys climbed up from the head of the bed and got out of bed, looking like he was going to the bathroom at night.

Before he walked out of the screen that separated the two rooms, he ran into Dany, who seemed to have just gotten up at night.

"Brother, are you going to the bathroom too?" Viserys found that Dany was looking at him with unstoppable joy on her face, and she whispered shyly, "I just woke up. You go first."

Viserys was relieved: "Oh, if you want to go to the bathroom, go ahead. I'll get up and drink some water."

"Oh." The girl walked to the bathroom in small steps.

Viserys looked at Dany, who looked like a girl in love, and couldn't help but fall into thought again. Now that things have come to this, perhaps he should start from the beginning and end, follow the local customs, and obey the ancient traditions of the Valyrians.

The next day, Daenerys took advantage of Arnie's absence to quietly tell Viserys about her dream last night.

The change of the sparks in Dany's body into a dying flame, and then feeling like a new life was not beyond Viserys's expectations.

In the original book, after contacting the three dragon eggs, Daenerys soon had a similar dream. The difference is that in the original book, when Dany contacted the dragon eggs, she dreamed that the dragon spewed flames at her, so she stretched out her arms to embrace the flames and let the flames completely swallow her up, and a similar situation occurred after contacting the residual dragon soul on the dragon bones with Viserys, the residual magic on the dragon bones was absorbed by Dany's body, and her own body changed.

If there was no Viserys, Daenerys should be able to absorb only eight parts of the dragon bone magic at most. If there was no external force, she could not achieve this effect by herself. But Daenerys has now achieved the effect of touching three dragon eggs on her own, and it is difficult for Viserys to explain what has happened to her.

Dany continued her previous dream, but the ghosts were gone.

Have they given up on Dany? Or can they no longer influence her?

This can be considered good news in some ways.

Because it seems to mean that Viserys has the upper hand in the fight for Daenerys.

Another strange point is that Dany dreamed that Viserys was standing on an island that seemed to be Dragonstone.

Is this a prophecy or a hint?

Viserys' original plan to travel east on a merchant ship did not include Dragonstone. He planned to go to Volantis, which is very close to ancient Valyria. He originally planned to collect enough magic power to transform into a dragon before the red comet appeared, and search for dragon souls in the ruins of Valyria.

Compared with the dragon bones in Westeros, the army in Valyria's heyday could send hundreds of dragons at the same time. Over the years, there must be more dragon bones in the ruins, and Viserys is not afraid of ordinary black magic when he transforms into a dragon.

The original book says that the captain of the Serenity, Crow's Eye Euron, found the dragon horn in Valyria, which had become a smoky ruin, and took it out, and he also suspected that he found a dragon egg. Even though Euron is said to know black magic, he is still a mortal after all. Euron can find good things, so there is no reason why Viserys can't find it.

Before the arrival of the red comet, the magic power of this world should not hurt Viserys who has transformed into a dragon.

Sometimes he thought that maybe he would go around Valyria and come out invincible.

But this was the second time that Dany dreamed that he was on Dragonstone, although the two dreams seemed to be one continuous dream.

Dragonstone is located at the exit of Blackwater Bay. The castle of Dragonstone was built with advanced Valyrian masonry technology, which was lost in the Doom of Valyria. Dragonstone was once occupied by the Valyrian Empire as a bridgehead for invading Westeros. Later, the Targaryens, who followed the prophecy of Daenerys the Dreamwalker, migrated here and escaped the Doom of Valyria. From then on, Aegon the Conqueror set out to conquer the six kingdoms of Westeros and establish the Targaryen dynasty.

If there were dragons on Dragonstone, it would be easy to defend and difficult to attack. The enemy had no choice but to attack with naval forces, and ships on the sea were live targets for flying dragons, so Dragonflame was worried that the enemy soldiers would not gather together.

But it may not be a good place to use as a base. Most of Dragonstone is volcanic, and there is not much land for people to live. The islands it belongs to are sparsely populated, and the vassals it belongs to are even less. It is difficult to gather a large number of troops on Dragonstone.

But that place is magical.

Let's not talk about history. Just say that at this moment, Melisandre, the priest of the Red God, is there, and Patchface, who is suspected to have the power of the Drowned God, is there. It is said that there is a stone dragon sleeping there.

There are also rich dragon crystal deposits, volcanic areas where wild dragons have lived, and castles built by Valyrians that may be able to block magic. It is also the land that Targaryen has the most claim to. Defending the island, you can use the island to spy on Westeros from the shore and move freely.

When Robert died, the seven kingdoms were in conflict, and Stannis launched the Battle of the Blackwater, Viserys did not need thousands of troops to attack Dragonstone, but only a hundred people and followers, and it was easy to get.

Viserys tried to confirm what Dany's dream that continued again meant.

But strangely, when he asked Daenerys to contact the dragon soul again and try to reproduce her dream, Dany could not feel the magical power except seeing her burning body.

Dany's dream was broken again.

It was still the same question.

When Daenerys seemed to have broken through a certain realm, she dreamed of Viserys on Dragonstone. Was it a prophecy or a hint?

The art of war says: Do not underestimate the enemy because of the large number of troops, do not go against the majority because of your own opinion, and do not take arguments as inevitable.

The protagonist is in the fog of war, and the original book is vague about the power of the gods.

Duke Stephen Baratheon of the previous generation of the Lu family met Patchface in Volantis (suspected to be stained by the Drowned God), helped him redeem his freedom, and wanted to take him back to Storm's End when returning from the journey to the Free Cities. Their returning ship sank in Shipwreck Bay. The entire ship, including Duke Stephen Baratheon and his wife, died in the shipwreck, and only Patchface survived.
