If a person looked like a pig, would you say that she was ugly?
By analogy, if a pig looked like a human, would other pigs despise it for being ugly?
It was the same for the Children of the Forest.
"I'm not ugly. I look like Mother Goddess. I'm proud, proud!" Little Mist put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest.
"As a human, you and Danny Alice aren't ugly, but you used to sing praises of the earth!"
"The Children of the Forest are the most beautiful creatures in the world. Even Mother Goddess said so."
"You can't be too harsh. Carbon Tooth has already started a second life. It's normal for him to change forms."
"That's right. No matter how ugly humans are, they're still better looking than crows."
"That's true. Look at Carbon Tooth's wings. They're sparkling like fire crystals. They're much prettier than us."
The crows cawed. Some despised them, while others thought Little Mist was pretty.
"Do you want to go with Mother Goddess? I'm quite lonely by myself. "Little Mist widened her eyes and said pitifully.
"Where's Mu Guo? Didn't Mu Guo leave with you? "A crow asked curiously.
"Mu Guo? You mean Ah Fu? Sigh, she was burned away by Mother Goddess. "Little Mist sighed.
"Burned away?" The crows were shocked. "Mu Guo is dead?"
"She's not dead." Little Mist hurriedly said.
"Oh, I thought she was dead." The crows heaved a sigh of relief.
Little Mist continued, "She's not completely dead. I think it's worse than death. There's only one left …"
She scratched the back of her head and thought for a while before saying, "Ah Fu was burned away by Mother Goddess's divine fire. Her soul was destroyed. Only her life imprint is left."
"Hiss ~ ~ ~" The sky warmed up because thousands of crows sucked in a breath of cold air.
"That's too scary!" The crows were trembling.
"Little Mist, what nonsense are you talking about?" Dragon Queen ground her teeth below.
Little Mist touched her chin and spaced out for a while before remembering her duty. She hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid. This is what it's like to start a second life. You'll all be burned away, and then —"
"Caw caw caw, I'm afraid of fire. I don't want to be burned away!"
"How painful would it be to have one's soul scattered? It's better to quietly blend into the trees and the earth. "
The crows were even more frightened, and they directly interrupted Xiao Wu's next words.
"It doesn't hurt, the fire doesn't hurt at all. Look at me," Little Fog turned around and turned back into a little sun with a human face. She said proudly, "When Mother Goddess ate hotpot, she let me squat under the pot and boil the soup in a short while.
I'm hotter than ordinary flames, so how can I be hurt by fire? "
"That makes sense. If they all turn into fireballs, they shouldn't be afraid of being burned by fire." The crows were skeptical.
Well, it should only become a "fireball" after being burned, not a fireball first and then calcined.
Back then, Little Mist had also been burned until she cried out in pain. Unfortunately, after becoming a Fire Spirit, she had forgotten all of her memories.
"What's the matter with the wooden fruit? Why is she still a … Life Imprint? Why didn't she become like you? "A crow asked in confusion.
"All living beings in the world have their own attributes. Generally speaking, they are more compatible with one of the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire. I am closer to fire element, so I burned it into a life imprint and reincarnated into a fire spirit."
Little Fog sighed. "Ah Fu is unlucky. She is neither a fire spirit nor a wind spirit. However, Mother Goddess hasn't sung the Song of Water and Song of Earth, so she can't turn into another elemental spirit.
But don't worry, when Mother Goddess sings her own Song of Earth and Water, even if it's just the beginning, Ah Fu can immediately start a second life. "
"What? Danny Rize wants to gather the Songs of the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water? " Bran was too shocked and couldn't help but interrupt. "Her ambition is too big. If she really gathers the Songs of the four elements, won't she become … the Divine King? She's daydreaming! "
"Long live Mother Goddess, Mother Goddess is omnipotent. Mother Goddess will definitely gather the Songs of the four elements and become the world's first Divine King!"
Little Fog turned back into a little spirit, raised her little fist and shouted fanatically.
Danny facepalmed.
She was just showing herself and pulling people into her group. Such a simple task, yet she managed to do it like this …
— Mother Goddess's secret has been exposed by you.
"Danny Rize, you're lucky to be able to sing the Song of Wind and Song of Fire at the same time. Even if it's two Songs of the Elements, you'll still feel the lack of time to cultivate, right?
You can't master all the laws in the world. Don't bite off more than you can chew! "Bran went straight to Danny and advised her.
"Cultivation is my own business. Why are you so agitated?" Danny said in annoyance.
Bran said in a low voice, "This isn't just about you. Don't forget your mission. Don't let down Mother Goddess's trust in you!
If you can't sing a complete Song of the Laws before the night ends, the world will be doomed.
Unless you're willing to sacrifice yourself to help Lahlo and let him summon the sun. "
"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing." Danny waved her hand and said impatiently.
"What do you mean? You don't have time to waste. You don't have time to take the wrong path! "Bran was a little angry.
"Since you're in such a hurry, why don't you help me with all your might?"
"You said you want crows. I've brought all the crows here. As long as they're willing, they can all follow you. It's already like this. How do you want me to help you? "Bran said angrily.
"Help me convince them!"
"Don't push your luck. The crows are my companions, not slaves!"
"You make it sound like I'm going to make them slaves."
After a pause, Danny asked curiously, "I thought you'd give the mission of summoning the sun to Jon Stark."
"I hope so. Unfortunately, he lacks too much opportunity compared to you." Bran's words were filled with resentment.
Mother Goddess's inheritance should have been given to Jon.
.....
"Mother Goddess, I've convinced two hundred crows! “
After a short moment, Xiao Wu excitedly led a group of crows and landed on the balcony of the King's Tower. She proudly reported the results to the Dragon Queen. The crows opened their red, gold, or green eyes and sized her up curiously.
"Only two hundred?" Danny was dissatisfied.
Bran didn't go back on his words. He brought all the crows here, and there were close to four thousand of them.
In the past, there were only three thousand crows as animal companions. They were busy running around for the Three-Eyed Crow. The other one thousand crows were too old, and their souls were too tired. They didn't do missions anymore, and they usually slept on the weirwood.
Now, they were all here. However, Xiao Wu only managed to get two hundred of her companions.
Well, without Xiao Wu, there might be more crows who came to seek refuge with the Dragon Queen.
When Danny thought of this, she looked at the little guy with a gaze filled with resentment.
"What's wrong? Mother Goddess, there are two hundred of them! "Xiao Wu had a blank expression.
"Forget it. I'll let someone else speak next time!"
Looking at the crows on the windowsill, Danny completely excluded Xiao Wu from the propaganda team.
.....
"I'm going to Dragonstone Island. Do you want to come with me?" Danny looked at Mance and his wife and asked.
Mance's expression was serious. He shook his head and said, "Most of the free people on the Great Wall were recruited by me from beyond the Great Wall. How can I leave when they are fighting with their lives on the line?"
"Do you think the battle in the South will be easier than in Dark Castle?" Danny disagreed.
"Also, your son is still on Dragonstone Island. He's two years old now, right?"
"No, he's two months and seven days away from two years old," Dana quickly corrected.
"Do you miss him?" Danny asked.
The female savage's gentle and beautiful face was filled with deep longing.
"Of course, I miss him. I dream of him every day, but I can't leave his father. He can live a good life on Dragonstone Island. He's safe, and I can rest assured. "
As she spoke, Dana's eyes reddened, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Mance patted his wife's shoulder and said comfortingly, "If King Strange Ghost really crosses the Neck and goes to the South, we'll go to Dragonstone Island."
"What about you?" Danny turned her gaze to the silent savage princess Wale. "Do you want to go to Winterfell? You haven't seen Jon for almost half a year, right? "
Wale frowned and thought for a moment. She shook her head and said, "I don't want to be his vassal. Besides, he doesn't need me."
.....
Lastly, Hearthfire, the Amber family's castle. Excluding the Night Watchers' castle, this was the northernmost castle in the Seven Kingdoms.
The weather in the North was cold. Hearthfire was not like Winterfell, built on top of a hot spring. Its architecture was more in line with the style of the Northerners — they built their houses underground.
Not the entire house was built underground. Half of it was underground, and the other half was above ground. Er, it could also be said that it was a stone building with a multi-story basement.
In the summer, they lived above ground, and in the winter, they lived underground.
Ordinary villagers would dig holes underground and build multi-story wooden houses at the bottom of the holes.
The Amber family wouldn't do that. After all, they were Earls with thousands of years of history. They were a prominent Duke in the North.
Their main castle was similar to the Taihe Palace in the Forbidden City. It wasn't the architecture, but the foundation. Both used earth as a platform, and on top of the platform, grand buildings were built.
However, the Taihe Palace was built directly on the platform, while Hearthfire's castle was built on top of the platform with multiple stories of basements. The buildings that were exposed above the platform were also very low. The edges of the "V" shaped roof even reached the ground.
The structure of Hearthfire was also very simple. It was 100 meters wide and 200 meters long. It was a long strip facing north and south. The Forest of Heavenly Trees was in the north and took up 40 meters. The castle on the platform was 50 meters long and wide. Around the main castle were towers, stables, and warehouses.
The castle was surrounded by a stone wall that was 18 meters tall. The top of the wall was wide enough for two horses to walk side by side.
Of course, just like Winterfell, outside Hearthfire, there was a market for the commoners.
Was the 18 meters tall city wall tall?
Not to mention the Great Celestial Empire, even in the southern Westeros, 18 meters was considered very tall.
But it was different in the North.
In the vast plains of the North, the snow in winter could be 10 meters thick. With the walls blocking the wind, snowflakes could accumulate to 15 meters and even overflow the walls.
For example, in the original Plot, why didn't Theon fall to his death when he jumped off the Winterfell walls with the fake Arya?
That was because the Winterfell walls were 15 meters tall and the snow outside the walls was 12 meters thick. Jumping down was like landing on a cotton blanket.
In previous years, even if the snow overflowed the walls, the people in the castle wouldn't be afraid of an enemy attack. To attack Hearthfire, one had to cross thousands of kilometers of snow and ice. A large army couldn't cross, and a small army attacking the Earl's castle was equivalent to suicide.
But this time, a large army came. They stepped lightly on the snow, and it was easier than walking. The walls were lost immediately.
As Dani led the three dragons past Hearthfire, she saw a scene similar to the one in the game from her past life.
Corpses with glowing blue eyes crawled all over the squarish Hearthfire Citadel, and even the roofs.
