章 630: Chapter 630: Fusion
"What happened?"
In the tower of Mege, Yaliene sat on the feather bed, chatting with her cousin Renis, when suddenly, a golden light shone into the room from the outside.
The queen of Westeros, lifting her skirt, hurried to the window alongside the ruling princess, overlooking the golden glow emanating from the Godswood below, as fierce as the blazing sun.
"Sansa!"
Immediately, Yaliene called her maid to swiftly inform the Unsullied soldiers to investigate the situation.
The loyal Red Keep guards, of course, needed no queen's orders; in fact, their reaction was quicker than Yaliene's. As the golden light soared into the sky, the patrolling Unsullied soldiers promptly formed a shield wall, rapidly surrounding the direction of the Godswood.
"Quick, quick, quick!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The Unsullied soldiers, vigilant and ready, surrounded the Godswood, unafraid of the unknown golden light emanating from within, their shields raised as they converged towards the source of the golden light.
The Godswood of the Red Keep had elms, redwoods, and poplar groves, situated at the rear of the keep, overlooking the mouth of Blackwater River.
At the heart of the Godswood stood a colossal oak, its branches laden with smokeberry vines, now shimmering under the golden glow.
As the Unsullied soldiers trampled on the fallen leaves within the Godswood, the nearing golden firelight also illuminated their cheeks.
As they drew nearer, they could see a faint figure shrouded in the golden flames.
The eyes of the Unsullied were steadfast, but seeing a figure amidst the flames, their throats couldn't help but tremble slightly, gripping their spears and shields tighter.
This had surpassed their understanding, reaching a non-human realm; they did not know what kind of adversary they were facing.
"Who goes there?!"
One of the soldiers couldn't help but inquire sharply in Valyrian.
However, it seemed that only now did the figure seated within the golden flames awaken.
He slightly raised his head, realizing the ruckus he'd caused; perhaps not just the Red Keep, but the whole of King's Landing would be discussing this come morning.
"Stand down!"
"Let no one come near."
A familiar voice emanated from the golden flames. The Unsullied surrounding the Godswood were momentarily stunned upon hearing the voice, but soon realized who the figure amidst the flames was. By now, who else in the Seven Kingdoms could bathe in fire unscathed?
"Yes, Your Grace!"
Whoosh—
In an instant, all the Unsullied surrounding the Godswood knelt on one knee and hastily retreated, encircling the Godswood, forbidding anyone to approach.
Even Yaliene, Renis, and other women who arrived later wanting to take a peek were denied entry.
The primary standard for the Unsullied executing commands was the word of Viserys; any conflicting orders from others would be disregarded.
Now in the Godswood, without any disturbances, Viserys' focus was entirely on the nameless idol in his hands.
This was one of the treasures left behind by Gillian Lannister. Gillian had once explored Valyrian ruins and was among the few who came out alive.
Gillian held many secrets, including his covert presence by Viserys' side, which, after being exposed, led to his suicide by poison. However, his body disappeared without a trace.
At first, Viserys thought Tywin had people steal the body, but according to current information, the tomb Tywin set up for his brother was a cenotaph; Gillian's body wasn't there.
How Gillian's body vanished on its own, no one knew.
However, not long ago, when Viserys was browsing his private storage, he unintentionally touched this nameless idol with horned head, and a special power subtly emerged, attracting a certain trait within him, drawing his attention to it.
This sensation was unfamiliar to Viserys as he had never experienced such a reaction before. This idol, unearthed from Valyrian ruins, seemed to crave a certain power from him – the golden ethereal flames that had ignited within him not long ago.
But facing this inexplicable situation, Viserys was not alarmed; instead, he delved into contemplation. He did not hastily merge the golden flames with this nameless idol, nor did fear drive him to smash and discard it.
Subsequently, Viserys tested everything in the storage room one by one, and, astonishingly, found another item, which was also extremely interested in the golden flames within him, exhibiting a strong attraction.
It felt like a gluttonous child encountering a delicious cake; it was instinctive.
This was a gigantic raven skull that Viserys found in an unnamed cave in the Stormlands before the battle at Bronze Gate. According to the Three-Eyed Raven's memories, he had flown here with his sword Dark Sister and plunged the blade into this massive pale raven skull, subduing it.
Valyrian steel seemed to have a strong magic-suppressing effect; after Dark Sister was inserted, the white raven skull ceased vibrating, and the unprecedented massive storm over the Narrow Sea gradually subsided. Daenerys was born during this storm.
Before the battle at Bronze Gate, Viserys had taken Dark Sister and also this massive pale raven skull. From that time, he felt a trace of inexplicable power within the skull.
According to the documents he found, the only entities related to ravens and storms seemed to be the legendary Storm God from the Ironborn religion.
'The Storm God is the eternal enemy of the Drowned God, residing in the halls within clouds, with ravens as his servants, laying traps to lead the Ironborn towards their demise.'
Ancient rumors claimed the servants of the Storm God were ravens, while others said the Storm God himself was a raven.
Viserys found this skull extraordinary, and had once invited Melisandre, 'Mage' Maester Marwyn, and others to study it, but they could not provide any explanation. Hence, this raven skull had been kept in his storage.
Now, this entity also seemed interested in the golden flames within him, so Viserys placed the nameless idol from Valyrian ruins and the massive pale raven skull together.
After much deliberation, Viserys chose to pick up the nameless idol.
