Chapter 46 Doris's Letters, Senila's Identity

Seeing the girl's terrified expression, Oris pulled the madam aside and asked, "Has she always been like this? How can we calm her down?" The madam looked at Oris's face. "My dear sir," she said, "this child has some mental issues, but she's not completely stupid. She recognizes people; she's just not very familiar with you yet. Take her home and raise her for a while, and she'll get used to you." After exchanging information about the girl with the madam, Oris took Doris's belongings, while the girl was carried by Tian Shou and walked with Oris towards the council palace.

The silver-haired girl cried and screamed all the way, leaving countless bloody marks on Tian Shou's back. However, Tian Shou remained as still as a robot, without making any unnecessary movements. Oris had thought that the silver-haired girl's crying and screaming would attract the attention of the citizens, but everyone seemed to be used to it and remained focused on their own business, with no one trying to stop them.

Oris and his two companions returned to the council palace. Alexandra and Jennifer, having received the news, greeted him at the door, their eyes fixed on Oris's face, making him somewhat uncomfortable. Seeing that the two didn't intend to speak, Oris said, "It's not what you think. This child is related to me." Without giving them a chance to ask questions, he arranged a room for the girl and then returned to his bedroom to begin sorting through Doris's belongings.

Oris opened the cloth bag and found only a few old clothes and some wooden jewelry inside; the previous items had probably all been divided up. At the very bottom of the bag, Oris found a book titled "Dragons, Dragonworms, and Longwinged Dragons: An Unnatural History of the Evolution of Dragons," an encyclopedia about fire dragons written by Maester Bass of the Citadel. Oris's knowledge of fire dragons before learning blood magic came from this book. Oris knew that the book contained many errors, but also many valuable points.

Orris was curious about how Doris, a bed slave, had managed to obtain this book, which was rare in this era. With a sense of inquiry, Orris slowly opened the thick volume. Having read it before, he quickly found a letter tucked away in a compartment between the pages.

Oris opened the envelope and began to read the letter: My dearest Oris, if you are reading this letter, it means I am dead, and you, Oris, have found my greatest secret. Please allow me to call you Oris, my child. Although I have not fulfilled my responsibilities as a mother, please believe me, I love you very much, I love you more than anything in the world. When you were born, you were just a tiny little bundle. I lay in bed, afraid to look at you, afraid that I would not be able to resist keeping you by my side. But I could not do that. I hoped that your future would be bright. During the six months you grew up in the small courtyard, I often secretly watched you from the edge of the yard. Your foster mother, a woman named Margaret, saw me several times, but she never came to see me. When I saw you babbling, I thought that I would dedicate my whole life to you.

My child, my world became desolate and lifeless after you left. I began trying to leave you something, and I remembered what my mother had told me about my bloodline as a member of the Dragon King family. After that, I started searching for clues, and finally, in the courtyard where my mother used to live, under a tree, I found this large book and a brooch. I had only learned Valyrian, and I couldn't read the book. I felt these things might not be of any help to you. After I started working as a prostitute, I spent most of my time trying to please pirate crew members and captains. Heaven knows how strong their body odor was. My child, I couldn't get dragon eggs from them, but I still managed to collect quite a few strange and unusual items. I bought them, along with the brooch, under the tree in your courtyard. Your mother has been guarding these things for you ever since.

Finally, my child, I know I have no right to make demands of you, but I still have to swallow my pride and tell you, Senella is a good child. She was born two years after you left, and I named her after a Targaryen princess. She is very simple-minded. Although she often yells and screams, she will also reciprocate kindness when you show her kindness. I know she may be a troublesome child, but as a mother, I cannot abandon her. I have asked her to guard the treasure I left behind. When you unearth those items, please take good care of Senella for me.

Farewell, my dearest Oris.

After reading the long letter, Oris felt a pang of sorrow and helplessness. He didn't know how to respond to Doris's feelings. He thought of Senila, her frantic state all the way—it was all to protect the treasure. Thinking this, Oris shook his head, left his bedroom, and opened Senila's door. Senila was curled up on the edge of the bed. As the door opened, Senila darted out, but Oris grabbed her arm and quickly said, "I'll take you back to get the treasure." After Oris spoke, Senila indeed calmed down and followed him closely. Oris then called for Tian Shou.

Tian Shou carried the barefoot Senila back to the Perfume Garden. Led by the madam, they returned to the courtyard. Later, Oris and Tian Shou found two shovels in the bedroom of the courtyard. After digging for half an hour, they found a large box.

Oris did not open it immediately. After returning to the palace with Senila and Tian, ​​Oris pried open the copper lock on the box in Senila's presence. Inside the box was a large pile of papers, beneath which were some creature eggs. Oris did not examine them one by one, but removed the partition and mixed them with a pile of steel fragments and parts, finding the brooch. Oris looked at the three-headed fire dragon symbol on the brooch, lost in thought.

At this point, Oris had basically confirmed that his mother was a descendant of Jaehaerys I's daughter. If Doris were a descendant of Blackfyre or Illion, her descendants would certainly know some information, given that it hadn't been that long. However, Doris didn't even know Common Tongue, and her mother hadn't left behind any useful information. The three-headed dragon badge further confirmed Doris's Targaryen lineage, making the answer quite clear.

Oris handed the three-headed dragon badge to Senila, at which point Senila finally called him "brother." Oris's expression was quite complex; although he had no romantic feelings for Senila, he could sense her genuine emotions.

After embracing Senila for a while, Oris had a maid help Senila wash up and eat. He then began reading the papers left by Doris, which mostly recorded the types and names of animal eggs, all told to him by the crew. At the end of the manuscript, Doris also wrote that while accumulating these eggs, most of the animals that hatched were sold by Doris. As for the remaining eggs that neither hatched nor spoiled, Doris believed they possessed magical energy and required specific conditions to hatch.
