Bab 46: Chapter 46

Cyrus' group journey hadn't gone as well as he had hoped, thanks to the Dothraki they were harassed constantly. Travelling with a bunch of young beautiful women can cause a lot of problems, they were trying to enslave the women turning them into their mounts. Dothraki slaves were all women, they always sold the men to the slaver cities keeping the best women for themselves.

After so many attacks, Cyrus had decided it was time to go by air, so he pulled out a raiding [Lustrous Flying Carpet] which allowed up to 25 people to ride. It was his only multiple person mount that sat more than two. Upon seeing him lay out the carpet only Julia and Alexstrasza knew what he was doing, the rest of the girls looked on in puzzlement.

Once they were airborne he was hit hard once again by demands for their own. When he asked why since they each had a helicopter turbo edition, their response almost caused Cyrus to lose control of the carpet.

"It's CUTE!! SERIOUSLY!! Both choppers are way cooler. Who wants cute as a means to travel? Hell I wouldn't even be using this thing if there weren't so many of you and having a bunch of flying machines together would draw attention. Freakin cute they say." Cyrus responded to the girls then thought of an easy solution, then smiled and continued. "You know the carpet can be made by high level tailors so Sansa and Myrcella should be able to make the single person flying carpets soon."

Hearing that the carpet was made through tailoring both Sansa and Myrcella both had sparkles in their eyes. They wanted to hurry this trip along so they could work on their tailoring, Cyrus laughed internally seeing his plan worked. Get them to improve not just her strength but their professions too.

It didn't take long for them to arrive near Meereen once airborne, and the pyramids made it hard to miss. Meereen was by far the largest of the three city states, it was the northern most city of Slavers Bay and was situated at the mouth of the Skahazadhan River. The river separated Slavers Bay from the Red Waste.

Landing a bit away from Meereen so that they didn't cause a scene, all the women put a hooded cloak on to try to avoid conflict as much as possible. They were going to a notorious slave city, and the 'Good Masters' were known to capture and enslave women they fancied. Even if they were the queen of another country it didn't matter to the Good Masters cause they had armies of unsullied, not many would want to go to war with unsullied due to their training and discipline. And even if it was a powerful country, by the time they sent a response to negotiate the return of the noble woman, they would've already had plenty of fun with them so returning them wouldn't be a problem.

Cyrus had brought quite a bit of gold with him to purchase all he could, gold was definitely not something he was lacking. Even the Iron Bank had trade agreements with the north and were a large buyer of many northern products. They weren't too happy when they learned the north had its own bank even though it was limited to Cyrus' cities but they knew it wouldn't be long till they lost clients. Although the north didn't bank with the Iron Bank that didn't mean most southern houses didn't. Lannister and Tyrell were large account holders.

Once they made it within the city they were shocked by the amount of slaves, for every free person there were three to five slaves. Cyrus began to wonder if he had enough gold.

Making their way thru Meereen with the guidance of some unsullied, they were taken to the House of Loraq which was one of the main rulers of the city. Upon entering the largest pyramid in the city they were placed into a large meeting hall to await the head of the house.

It didn't take long for Hizdahr zo Loraq to show up, after all he was told a large party had come interested in buying armies or unsullied.

Hizdahr was an intelligent man and heir to his house, when he was informed of a few young men followed by a number of women he knew this could be a large sale and possible trade. Many buyers would bring slaves to trade, so he knew he had to be dealing with a noble rather than a sellsword. Due to his father's absence thanks to a meeting with the other large families, he decided to handle the sale.

When he entered the room and scanned the visitors, although he couldn't see the women's faces he could tell they were young and beautiful so he got excited thinking he would get first picks. However as soon as his eyes laid on Cyrus he instantly froze, he had heard of the Red Wedding in Pentos and seeing the Wolf sigil he began to regret coming. Sweat started to appear on his head and back, he quickly and respectfully greeted Cyrus and they got down to business very quickly.

It was going so smoothly that Sansa used her priest's ability to read Hizdahr's mind thinking he was trying to fool her brother, but upon seeing what the reason was she couldn't help but burst out laughing which embarrassed her due to everyone turned and looked at her questioningly. After she calmed down a bit and Cyrus went back to negotiate he was again interrupted by giggling behind him, Sansa had told the girls about what was going through his mind. When he looked back he noticed Daenerys was as red as an apple. After negotiations were done and Cyrus was able to buy an army of 10,000 unsullied for 65,000 gold dragons thanks to Hizdahr being very generous, they made their way to the Inn to rest for the night due to their unsullied wouldn't be ready till the following day.

When they arrived in the inn he was questioned why he used gold and didn't just kill the masters and free them, he had to explain his plan.

"If I just killed the masters it wouldn't solve the underlying issue, more masters would just take their place. However, if I purchase said slave army legally then immediately use said army to capture the city how well will that go for not just this city but the other two as well." Cyrus explained to them.

"But if you do that wouldn't it not work at the other two places?" Obara asked after she put some thought into it.

"True but it doesn't have to, but what do you think will happen once the two cities south learn of what happened here? And it will work one more time." Cyrus said mysteriously while asking a question of his own.

"Well they probably wouldn't do any large sales to anyone anymore. But how will it work one more time?" Daenerys answered after everyone had been pondering on his words.

"That's easy, tonight you, Jon and Shireen as well as a few others will head south to Yonkai and do the same. Buy as large a group as possible, hell pretend to sell your dragon cause once that whip is in your hands order the slaughtering of all the masters. By the time Astapor even hears news both cities would be under our control and I will head south and we can meet in Astapor and attack with our combined armies. I already have Dalaran en route, we will be able to use the portals to disperse the population across the north. May as well take everyone willing to go since if we leave them here they would all just be killed or recaptured since we are taking the military strength. You all saw the Dothraki on the way here." Cyrus laid out his plan for everyone, he wanted everyone on the same page.

After hearing the plan each approved of its quick actions thus allowing them full advantage. By the time Astapor learns of Meereen, Yonkai would be theirs already and Cyrus would be at Astapor with Daenerys and the others already closing in by the time they learn of Yonkai.

Even if Astapor didn't just surrender it wouldn't be tough to sneak in under the cover of darkness and assassinate the Good Masters.

So the three dragon riders and Sansa, Arya, Tommen and Tormund all left that night with a large amount of gold and headed to Yonkai.

Meanwhile back in Westeros Margaery Tyrell along with a large group of her family were traveling by ship to Cyrus' city port of Boralus. They were moving into Margaery's villa she applied for in Stormwind. Olenna had even traveled with her to see this extraordinary city many have spoken about for herself. While on their way they had even witnessed Dalaran moving toward Essos in the sky which made many in House Tyrell brim with excitement. They had heard that the floating city was his military stronghold so many wanted to join the Knights of the Silver Hand.

After arriving at Boralus many were in awe, it was the first time seeing such a design of a city. Rather than being built entirely on land like most cities were, it was built on the water closing off the bay from the city, which allowed the whole port to be well defended from attacks from the sea. It had a series of gates that you had to enter just to sail into the city itself. It was a large port city, the outer walls hosted a large marketplace which allowed merchants ease of docking and trading their goods. Then beyond the Great Gate was the city proper, which that gate was rarely opened.

Once they made it into the city and were directed to the underground train many thought that they were in an entirely new world, they really began to wonder who were the true savages and barbarians. If just a port city was that magnificent, what would Stormwind which was Cyrus' capital city look like? Margaery couldn't wait to see, she couldn't wait to see what kind of place he built.

On the eastern side of the gift at Bilgewater Harbor, a medium sized pirate ship could be seen entering port. No pirate made any ruckus here because they knew better, they were here to sell their hauls. They had heard of what happened to those that caused trouble here and didn't want to be barred from the harbor. They weren't discriminated against like most other places and given fair prices rather than having to undersell. The north didn't care if it was stolen even if it was their own products because they knew it wasn't their ships they were stolen from. Since Cyrus built the two port cities they have been building ships like none other. They were faster and more deadly than anything seen, many pirates after seeing the wolf heads on the sails would keep a distance.

After docking and the pirates started to unload their cargo, a dwarf of a man walked onto the dock. He had dirty blondie hair and a scruffy beard. He studied the layout of the harbor and found a guard on duty. He approached the guard and asked, "Good man, could you direct me on how to get to Ironforge? I am told it was a city built by dwarves. Is it true?" Tyrion asked with expectation clear in his eyes.

"Aye, although not sure if they built it though since the young Lord Stark runs it. Guess they could've built it for him, no one really knows but you can take the underground train to Ironforge it will get you there the quickest or you can take the Zeppelin, it's a little slower but more scenic, plus if your not fond of enclosed spaces the Zeppelin is the best way." The guard directed him as he looked down to explain. Soon after the guard recognized who he was talking to, it took him a bit because Tyrion was dirty and smelly from being on a ship for months on end.

"Lord Tyrion?" after seeing Tyrions reaction which confirmed his identity he hurriedly continued, "It's me Will. We met when you came to Winterfell with the King. It's good to see you're alive, your uncle Lord Kevan Lannister has been looking for you." Will responded which completely dumbfounded Tyrion. Why would his uncle be looking for him and not his father? He had been pirating so news from Westeros was hard to come by.

"Aye, Will I remember now. Good to see you too, how is Rose doing back at Winterfell? You were the one who told me about her and never got to thank you, she was one of the best I had. But if you could explain what my uncle wants I can see about responding." Tyrion asked with a laugh which soon cut out after hearing the reply.
