Chương 45: Chapter 44

King Robert had a Gag order put on those who were in attendance of the meeting with Greg since if word gets out that the King was threatened in his own city then people will start to think that the King's is weak.

Robert was still threatening to put Greg's head on a pike outside of King's landing. The small council had met the next day, with Robert wanting to send more Assassins after Greg and to raise an army since he believed that Greg would wage war on them.

But Jon Arryn the Hand of the King had thought otherwise and informed Robert that Greg would take no such action since he only just established his Empire, and he needs time to deal with the current territory he already has and expanding would only cause problems.

But Jon Arryn still believed that Greg won't just let what happened go, and he will do something else besides wage war against them. Robert trusted Jon Arryns judgment and counsel, so he let go of the Idea of raising an army, but still Greg was a threat that Robert cannot ignore.

The Counsel meeting lasted longer than Robert would have wanted it, and the only conclusion that they came up with was to increase the number of ships that the Royal Fleet has, but then came another problem, They didn't have the money and were already 2 million in debt and that number was rising.

Robert proposed borrowing from the Lannister's, and he would send Jamie to do so, since who better to send then a Lannister to negotiate with a Lannister.

Preparations were made and Jamie would head to Lannisport to negotiate with his father.

After returning to Lorath Greg had met with the guest that the Triarch had brought to the Palace. Her name was of Valyrian Descent, Aerela Celinarys.

She had Platinum white hair with purple eyes and Pale White Skin. She was a little short, standing at 5ft 2 which was a little above average for the women of GOT.

Once Greg had met her, he felt something was off about her, but he didn't know what, so he sat down and talked with her about her past. At first, she was nervous but after sitting down and drinking some tea she had started talking about her past.

Her Mother died as she was born, and her father was murdered when she was young, leaving her uncle as head of her family. From a young age, she was taken in by her uncle and raised by him along with his children.

But at a young age, she wasn't allowed to leave her house since it was dangerous as she was her father's only child so remained inside most of the time wondering the house, reading books about the cities of Essos, and it's history.

This has caused her to become sheltered from the world, so when she meets new people she gets nervous since the only people she talked to were servants and her uncle's daughters. She was jealous of her uncle's daughters who get to go out and explore the city, while she had to stay inside all of her life.

So when she was told that she was to be married since she was now 17 she was nervous since she never left the city, and she didn't know how her husband would be. Her Uncle's Daughters often talked about men and how some hit their women and others force themselves on women. And also how they all wanted to marry a Prince or King and have their children.

Aerela didn't think too much about marriage when she was younger since she had no interest in men, but as her uncle's daughters begin to get married off into families, she became curious.

When she first met Greg, she was nervous because of how handsome he was and also hoping that she didn't offend him since on the way to Lorath she heard a few stories about Greg from travelling merchants or the men escorting her.

The stories were mostly about the things that Greg had done while others were made up stories of people exaggerating like staring too much at the Emperor will offend him or simply saying his name will bring ruin to your family which was not true. Most of the things she heard were false, but she didn't know that and believed them.

After hearing her story, Greg felt kinda bad for her since her whole life she spent sitting inside of a house do nothing but learning about Essos. She never experienced some of the things that a normal child had besides having friends, since she had her uncle's daughters as friends.

But still Greg felt there was something off about her a little, but he couldn't put his finger on it, so he put off for later since Aerela had asked for her room since she was tired after her journey.

Greg had a maid show her to her room while he went to so Arin to talk about what to do after the incident in King's Landing.

Arin had proposed asking the Iron Bank to not lend money to Robert while putting some sanctions on Robert, making the economic situation even worse than it was in Canon GOT.

The Sanctions wouldn't be against the whole of Westeros, only Robert, since Greg didn't want too many people to be affected by the Sanctions on Robert.

Some people will be affected, but not too many to where thousands of people would die, so Greg didn't worry about it.

After talking with Arin Greg had gone back to his room since he was tired.
