At this time, Jaime also recovered from his shock and looked at Danny with an indecipherable expression. "Your Majesty, your kindness and tolerance once again make me jealous … jealous of your White Knights.
But they are right. I am grateful for your tolerance and understanding, but you don't have to announce this publicly. It is not good for your father's reputation, and it may also adversely affect the choice of future knights. "
"You are King Aerys's daughter. I only want to account to the daughter of a deceased father, not the king's princess. I don't care about anyone's opinion, not even the Seven Gods. "
Jaime's expression was serious and his eyes were sincere.
"You have your persistence, and I have mine. In view of the reality of Westeros' moral decay and broken etiquette, I had planned to convene a great council and conduct a great trial of the Seven Kingdoms in the past thirty years. It will be absolutely open and fair.
The great trial is a thorough self-reflection.
I cannot demand absolute fairness in the great trial while hiding the truth that is unfavorable to Targaryen. That way, the trial will be completely meaningless. "
Danny said this to Jaime, but when she said it, her gaze swept across the faces of the White Knights.
Old Bart's expression changed from disbelief to gratification, and finally he sighed and said, "I understand. Your Majesty, you are right."
The other White Knights did not explicitly agree, but they did not object either.
But the way they looked at Danny changed again.
Full of sincere admiration.
In order to help Westeros rebuild their glorious faith, in order to be fair and just, the Dragon Queen was willing to give up the revenge of her father's murder and publicize the great scandal of her father. What kind of spirit is this?
Jaime was deeply shocked.
The glorious knight that he had been mocking all these years really did exist, and she was a great knight queen!
The "kingslayer" had begun to rebuild the glorious knight faith.
Uh, they did not know about the Dragon Queen's ancestor's plan.
Before the great trial, the mad king would become the ancestor of the dwarf's branch of Targaryen.
If the dwarf unfortunately died, he could also be thrown to him!
"What did you want from me, Messai?" Danny asked.
Jaime was still in shock, unable to react.
Danny raised her eyebrows and asked, "I've heard from Sir Barristan what happened to you at King's Landing. If you send Messai back now, can you guarantee her safety?"
Jaime snapped out of his daze. He shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Earlier, I was indeed worried about Messai. But now … in Slaver's Bay, she is safer and has a better environment to grow up in.
You're even willing to publicize Emperor Aerys' act of burning down the King's Landing. I can no longer hide the matter between Cersei and myself. It's a good thing that Myrcella has left the Westeros. "
.....
Even though the scouts discovered traces of Ghouls in the Werewolf Forest 30 kilometers northwest of Winterfell, the residents of Winterfell were shocked by the three pieces of news.
At the Blacksmith Shop in Winterfell.
Beside the stove, the Hound Spirit's naked upper body was only covered by a leather apron. He swung his iron hammer and hammered a red-hot Dragon Crystal with all his might. Ding ding dang dang dang! With every hit, sparks flew out, leaving mottled charred marks on the leather.
Erya sat on a large oak table that was stacked with Dragon Crystal Daggers. Her calves, which were wearing long snow boots, were dangling in mid-air and swaying non-stop.
"Have you heard? The Dragon Queen not only forgave the King Slayer for his crime of killing her father, but she also called him a 'Knight of Dawn, White Bull, Barristan, and the other White Knights'. She also gave him the title of 'Gray Light Knight'. "
"Gray is between white and black. He killed the King, which is a crime, so it is black. His motive for killing the King was to save the world. He is worthy of the White Robe behind him.
Black and white are gray.
However, he killed the King for the sake of the world and bore the eternal infamy of the King. His actions were so glorious, so the Dragon Queen called him the Gray Light Knight. "
Her expression was complicated.
Ever since she met her family, especially after returning to Winterfell, Erya seemed to have evolved. Her expression became richer, and her cold eyes started to warm up.
However, she didn't stop practicing the "Death Bible".
In other words, she had reached a higher level. She could control her emotions freely. She could be as cold as ice and unperturbed as though she wasn't human. She could also return to normal, talking and laughing, loving and hating.
"So?" The Hound's reaction was calm.
Arya was puzzled. "Aren't you surprised? Everyone in the castle is talking about this. They scolded the Mad King for burning down the King's Landing. They were shocked by Jaime and Lannister's different interpretation of the great Knights. They also praised the Dragon Queen for her fairness and magnanimity. "
The Hound stopped hammering and sighed. "If I had heard about Jaime and the Dragon Queen three years ago, I might have been moved. But now, I have found my faith on the Silent Island. "
"Faith of the Seven Gods? You didn't believe in the path of Knights or the Seven Gods. You even blasphemed 'King Falk' and 'Holy Mother Falk', "Arya said.
"I don't scold the Seven Gods anymore, but I don't feel anything towards them. I believe in and practice the Seven Gods' teachings. It's like if someone says something reasonable, no matter if that person is a bastard or a saint, I will accept it, "the Hound said.
Arya frowned. "Isn't that blasphemy?"
The Hound reached out his right hand and opened his palm.
"Holy Light!" he said.
A ball of white light the size of a candle appeared in his palm. The holy light was enough to calm one's heart.
But Arya was an exception. She felt that the white light was blinding. It was as if she was forced to open her eyes and look at the sun in the sky at noon in summer.
"It turns out that the Holy Mother is greater and kinder than we thought. She only wants to lead us to light, kindness, and spiritual freedom. She doesn't restrict us with dogma. "
Even though the Hound claimed that he was not devout to the Seven Gods, his eyes were filled with love and respect for the Holy Mother.
"What's that? It's blinding," Erya tilted her head and shouted.
"You've never seen Holy Light before?" The Hound's expression changed. He looked at her seriously. "You think it's blinding? Only evil creatures will be hurt by it. Normal people will only feel warmth and peace. "
"What's an evil creature? I've killed people, "Erya said in surprise.
"The souls that wander the mortal world, the ghouls outside the city, Cersei's White Knight Robert Strong, and the Dark Wizards of Yashar. They're all evil creatures."
The Hound put the holy light in his palm close to Erya's rough face and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Burning, a slight tingling." Erya's gray eyes flashed. She thought of her own meditation method. It was most likely that the Reaper's Bible conflicted with the Seven Gods' magic.
"You —"
"I … I'm practicing the Dark Wizards of Yashar."
The Hound put away the holy light and frowned. "Your sister also believes in the Seven Gods. You can try."
"Shapeshifters are blessed by the old gods. How can they believe in the Seven Gods? My sister believes in the Seven Gods. That's why she lost her direwolf. She doesn't have the gift of shapeshifting. "Erya shook her head.
"Forget it. Let's not talk about me." She waved her hand and looked at the Hound strangely. "I didn't expect you to be a real priest.
I was going to suggest you to find Danny Rize and ask her to heal your leg! She healed the Kingslayer's left leg. "
She then asked in confusion, "You're a priest. Why don't you heal your leg?"
Before they went to Braavos, Erya had been hanging out with the Hound.
Once, they went to the Crossroads Inn for dinner. They happened to meet three followers of the Arcane Mountain drinking there.
With Erya's help, the Hound successfully killed the three followers. However, his thigh and ear were injured as well.
Not long after, the wound that had not been treated by the scholar became infected. The tall and strong man collapsed and could not even walk.
The Hound begged Erya to show him "mercy", but Erya refused.
She left her old friend to die in the woods by the river and went to Braavos to study abroad.
Although the Hound's body was recovered by the elders of the Silent Isle and his life was saved, his leg was crippled.
"It can't be cured. It's been too long. The wound on my leg has already healed. Actually, healing spells are the most effective in stopping bleeding on the battlefield. It's better to use herbs for things like colds, inflammation, poisoning, and diarrhea. "
"The Kingslayer's limp was worse than yours. However, Danny Rize healed him," Erya said.
The Hound shook his head and sighed. "She's the child of the Seven Gods. She's different from me. I'm not even as good as Archbishop Meribad.
Have you seen the pockmarked knight under Stannis's command?
Richard Hope, who died once and was brought back to life by her.
She received the Great Resurrection Spell from the Holy Mother. Healing a cripple is nothing to her. "
"I heard that the pockmarked knight was a believer of the Red God. However, because he had the 'Atonement Scroll' that Danny Rize gave him, he went straight to heaven.
Obviously, the Atonement Scroll has no requirement for faith. Anyone can use it.
Danny Rize has been staying in the house for the past few days. Maybe she's avoiding the nobles who want to buy the Atonement Scroll from her.
Most of those nobles are believers of the Old Gods in the North!
But you can't blame them for being afraid of death. Even my sister Sansa wanted one for me and Jon, "Erya said with a complicated expression.
"Did you get it?" The Hound asked curiously.
"She said to wait for two days … Why don't we go find her together?" Erya looked down at his thigh. "Ask her to heal you. The war is coming. It's not worth it to die in the hands of deviant ghosts because of a crippled leg."
"Are you so concerned about my leg because you feel guilty?" The Hound asked curiously.
"I didn't hurt your leg. Besides, you should be thankful that I didn't kill you last time." Erya sneered and said, "Do you know my brother Bran? He was thrown off the tower by the Kingslayer and broke his spine. I want to see how Danny Rize treats him. "
Sensing the murderous intent under the little wolfgirl's calm expression, the Hound asked softly, "Jaime is on your death list?"
Erya and the Hound had been together for many days. They did not talk about it at first (the Hound kidnapped Erya to get ransom from Robb), but she had a habit of talking about the death list before she went to bed. After a while, the Hound naturally knew.
He even knew that he was on the death list.
At that time, Jaime's name was not on the list.
"He should be glad that he fulfilled his promise to my mother. He's even with Bran now," Erya said coldly.
"Where's your brother now?"
Erya's eyes flashed and she said softly, "Bran is not in Winterfell. He doesn't believe in the Seven Gods. Sansa said that he can't be healed by the Seven Gods' priests. But I want to ask Danny Rize personally."
The Hound thought about it and felt that it would be easier to fight if his leg was healed. He took off his hard leather apron and put on his leather armor and a large old goat fur coat. He then followed Erya to the guest room.
"I'm a believer of the Seven Gods. Give me an atonement scroll!"
"Your Majesty, as long as you give me ten atonement scrolls and bless my family to heaven, I'm willing to convert to the Seven Gods and fight for the Holy Mother."
"Your Majesty, I'm willing to donate a hundred acres of land to the church. Please have mercy on us believers of the Old Gods in the Northern Territory!"
When they arrived at the training ground in front of the guest room castle, the Hound and Erya were shocked by the crazed crowd.
