บท 6: Truths
Sitting at the bottom of the Iron Throne, Bart asked Jaime who has been unarmed and has been made to sit on the floor "Who is the current Grand Maester of the Red Keep?"
"That would be Pycelle, he hasn't been removed from the office." Jaime replied.
"Who is Varys?" Bart asked again.
"Master of Whispers. He's a bad news actually, he's been the one informing the king about that Prince Rhaegar was trying to usurp the Throne." Jaime told him as he has nothing else to do.
"Can you give me the description of both?" When Bart asked,Jaime told him how both Pycelle and Varys looked like. Nodding his head at what Jaime told him, Bart closed his eyes and gave out orders to two of his knights 'Track those two men, find out everything that they have to hide, who all they are contacting with.'
Two shadows knights readily left his shadow stealthily and went straight to their observation targets.
Then, looking at Diana, Bart said "Diana, can you get me that sword that Cormac found."
Nodding at him Diana went out of the throne room and came back after couple of minutes while holding a great sword in her hand.
"BRIGHTROAR! How do you have it?" Jaime asked after recognizing the ancestral sword of his family.
Chuckling at the question, Bart balanced it his hands and said "I'll be returning this to House Lannister."
"What's the price?" Jaime asked as soon as Bart said that he will be giving back Broghtroar to Lannister.
Thinking for a bit, Bart said "The Lannister's will owe me a favor, no strings attached and no backstabbing."
"That can be arranged. Now give me Brightroar." Jaime all but demanded it.
Shaking his head, Bart said "I will give it to you, when the one who agrees to my terms is your father and I get a written statemen signed by him and you."
"Alright, then let me contact my father." Jaime said.
"No need, he's coming to King's Landing with an army. I'll deal with him then." As Bart said that, Albern entered the throne room with Rhaegar, seeing the prince Bart said out loud "Look who we have here, the Crown Prince who couldn't keep it in his pants."
"Who are you? Why did you kill my father?" Rhargar asked as he saw the charred headless body of Areys on the floor and Bart sitting on the first step of the Iron Throne.
"Gee.... Who could I be? And why would I kill a King?" Pausing for a bit, Bart growled out "Son to a murdered father, brother to a murdered brother, and I had my revenge in this life."
"..." Rhaegar didn't say anything as he doesn't know which father and brother this man with a wolf head is talking about. Suddenly, he looked at the wolf helmet and muttered "Stark?"
"Ding ding ding! We have a winner here! That's right, I am a Stark. Son of Lord Rickard Stark and brother of Brandon Stark, both of whom were killed by your father. And also brother to Lyanna Stark, the girl whom you kidnapped and started all this mess." Bart said while skipping some steps towards Rhaegar.
"Then who is fighting at the Tridaent?" Rhaegar asked in confusion.
"That would be Eddard. And for who I am, it's better to show you my face." Saying so, Bart took off his helmet, and Rhaegar was taken back by seeing the face of a dead man on another man's.
Chuckling at the reaction of Rhaegar, Bart said "I think Arthur warned you about me before you lot kidnapped my little sister."
At that realization dawned upon Rhaegar, so he asked "Weren't you supposed to be dead?"
"Nope. My old man thought so after not getting any clue about me after five years into the exile, I won't blame him though, after all I was kidnapped by slavers and I was doing my best to escape from them and stay low. And when I come back here after the end of my exile, what do I find? The Prince kidnapped my sister, my brother and father who came to the capital to question you, were killed brutally by your father."
*Bam*
Out of nowhere, Bart punched Rhaegar in the face and said "That's for kidnapping my sister."
*Bam*
A second punch to the face "That's for the cause of death of my father."
*Bam*
A third one to the face "That's for the cause of death of my brother."
*Bam*
A fourth one to the body "That's for plunging the realm into war because of you stupidity."
*Bam*
A kick to the chest making Rhaegar fall back in his kneeling position "That's for making Elia and her children feel unworthy."
Holding his hair and sitting him upright, Bart asked Rhaegar in High Valyrian "Sir, skoro syt gōntan ao kidnap ñuha mandia?
(Now, why did you kidnap my sister?)"
In daze due the punches he got to his face, Rhaegar answered the questions "Īlin isse jorrāelagon (We were in love.)"
Squinting his eyes, Bart asked "Gōntan ao dīnagon zirȳla? (Did you marry her?)"
Nodding at Bart, Rhaegar answered "Īlon married isse drone isse secrecy (We married in Drone in secrecy.)"
Closing his eyes, Bart asked "Skoriot iksis ziry paktot sir? (Where is she right now?)"
"Tower hen kirimves, isse se jelmōñe egros hen mele mountains hen dorne (Tower of Joy, in the northern edge of the Red Mountains of Dorne.)" Rhaegar muttered out as he lost conciousness.
'Bertha! My sister is in Tower of Joy, in the northern edge of the Red Mountains of Dorne. Find it as soon as possible.' Bart urgently ordered out to Bertha.
'We will be reaching Drone in five minutes my lord.' Bertha replied back to him, and hearing that Bart smiled as he will be taking a hold of his sister.
"Tend to him." Bart told one of his knights, and went back to his sitting position before Albern came in with Rhaegar.
Looking at Albern, Bart said "Tie up all the guards in the Red Keep and King's Landing and throw them into the dungeon. After that man the entrances to the capital with the Generals, only allow the highest commanding officer to enter the Capital with a single guard. If anyone makes a ruckus, beat them up, no matter whom. And if they start asking questions, say that Lord Stark is in the Red Keep waiting for them. But, don't forget to guard the Queen and her children, use our whole army for this operation, I'll leave the rest in your hands Grand Marshall."
"As you command, my Liege." Albern along with all the knights present in the throne room knelt on one knee while addressing Bart a whole lot different from before and went out of the throne room with all the shadow knights to do as ordered by their liege lord.
When they left, Jaime asked "Are you their King or something?"
Winking at Jaime, Bart asked "What do you think?"
Observing Bart for a bit, Jaime asked "Will you be taking the Iron Throne?"
Tilting his head, Barthogan asked Jaime "Should I?"
Faraway in the North, beyond the gigantic Wall, in a cave in the haunted forest a pale, skeletal man in rotted, black clothing in a weirwood throne of tangled roots muttered out "Things are changing..... People who should be dead are alive..... The ones who shouldn't be dead will die.... The ones who should be born will not be born.... The future is changing!"
The other occupants of the cave kept on listening kept their silence so that the old man will continue his ramblings "Someone is changing the future... someone new has entered the board I have prepared and threw away every single pieces that I have been setting up.... And I can't see this new player, he is hiding in plain sight...."
Hearing all that, the other occupants of the cave who looks like children, one of them ran out of the cave and found a raven that was sitting on a tree branch. The child opened it's mouth and a beautiful sound of waterfalls, rivers, winds were heard. When the child closed it's mouth, the raven flew away from the branch towards South of Westeros.
When the child went back into the cave and the man was still rambling on how his plans are getting deviated and that he should try to get back his control as soon as possible. Hearing all that, the child that got back from outside thought to itself 'Only a century old and he want's to control the fates of many in his hands, you are not that wise yet child. Only the Old God's are wise enough for that, even then they were not in control of their own fate as we all are.'
