The red priest could only buy enough ingredients for about 100 barrels but that's more that enough to start , this wine is a luxury thing anyway only meant for the richest
The red priest were very happy to serve their prince at first ,than got confused when I told them to make wine but I explained to lady kinvara that I need gold and resources to stand a chance against the long night than they quickly got onboard
There were multiple reasons I chose the red priest to make wine, first they don't drink so no unnecessary loss and they are fanatics they won't steal from me, if I make the wine myself than I attract too much attention and if Robert got to know this I am sure half my wine would to be sent to red keep as taxes , so I made the wine in Myr and will sell it through the velaryons ,they are trading across the narrow sea from even before the conquest
Valariyan wine is so much better than the horsepiss they call wine, the Valariyan spells on the barrels keep just the right amount of heat and pressure and the magic in air help make the wine age faster by multiple folds
Now I am waiting in the red temple to meet Monford Velaryon the current lord of tides
"My prince your guest is here"
"Send him in"
As the lord came in he just stood there and watched me for a while then suddenly took the knee
"I am sorry your grace , when I got your letter I was suspicious but when I saw you now I am sure you are the son of our late prince Rhaegar, you might have the stark colouring but you face is all your father"
"Get up my lord, I would not let the lord of my house kneel in front me , come sit we have much to discuss"
"Of course your grace"
"I am no king yet my lord , but I wish to thank you for all the loyalty your house has shown my family, I am sorry that the velaryon babe had to die in such fashion because he was shown as the Targaryen prince just because queen Elia was barren after Princess Rhaenys"
"How did you know that your grace , only I and prince and princess knew"
"There are many wonders in this world that men cannot understand , I have to called you here to show you one such wonder right now" then I poured him a glass of wine, the one difference that was obvious that this was no ordinary wine was that it was reddish in colour but transparent
Lord Monford was doubtful but drank anyway
" Your grace this is the best thing I ever tasted, so much better than other wines I ever drank"
" Yes this is the wine from my homeland , made with knowledge and magic of Valariya, you my lord are going to sell this wine all over the world for me"
"Your grace I am honoured"
"Under Robert's rule house velaryon is unjustly imposed with huge taxes and restrictions , you my lord have many seafaring men but not enough ships, this wine is going solve all this problems, I have 100 large barrels of this here ready to be shipped and sold, you my lord are going to sell this wine all over the world to the rich lords and merchants for ten times the price of the most expensive wine"
"I will not fail you your grace , such great wine will sell easily even with such high price"
" I want you to sell this in small parts and never lower the price, and deliver the 90% of the profits to this red temple and rest 10% is more than enough to start building a fleet, I want you to build a royal fleet without attracting attention, it's time the velaryons take their rightful place as Master of ships"
"Your grace I am not worthy of such honour"
"You are getting exactly what you deserve my lord, here take this " I give him a dragonglass gem ring and a glass candle which I made
"Yes this a glass candle when the gem on that ring glows the glass candle will be lit and you can talk to me from anywhere in the world , we don't know were the little birds are lurking"
He took them but was doubtful, glass candle hasn't been lit for years now
"Don't be so surprised my lord, there are many wonders you are going to see, I will show you how a dragon takes revenge with fire and blood"
"Fire and Blood" he bowed and left
Fire and blood indeed my lord
It took a few days to discuss and iron out the kinks of the whole wine making and selling plan, on my last last day at the red temple the priests gave me a black dragon egg
I had seen dragon eggs before , I found two eggs in the chest under my mother's grave among other things my father left me,but those two eggs had turn to stone and would require a living sacrifice to hatch, which I am not going to hatch now
But this black egg was bigger and more importantly has not turned to stone, this egg could hatch on its own if he bonded with it and he could already feel the connection the moment he touched the egg
They priest said that egg appeared in front of the shrine a few weeks before I came to the red temple
As my bond with the egg was getting stronger I once again heard the voice of the dragon made of flames
"This is my last gift to you my champion"
I have to quickly get to Moat Cailin before this egg hatches , but what I didn't know was an unexpected surprise was waiting for me in my own castle
