"Little Dani is still the same as before."

"Well-behaved and sensible".

The old maid smiled as she spoke about the two girls.

"Now he often goes to play in the Kingsguard under the protection of Sir Evan and the guards."

"Dani is willing to go out and play now?"

Viserys tilted his head slightly upon hearing the old maid's words, a hint of surprise on his face.

Daenerys is introverted and prefers quiet. While Reyne is always clamoring to go out and play, the silver-haired little girl always prefers to stay in the house alone, afraid to go out and play and even more afraid to meet strangers.

Actually, it was mainly that fire that made the girl somewhat ashamed to see people.

"Yes, Dani's personality has become much more lively."

The old maid spoke first, and then continued.

"And speaking of the eldest princess..."

"Recently, Her Highness the Eldest Princess's personality has also undergone a significant change."

"Perhaps little Renis has really grown up."

Although Renis was a few years older than Daenerys, the old maid treated them equally.

"Oh?"

Viserys was slightly surprised by the old maid's words, but he was indeed quite concerned about the changes in Renis that Sophia had mentioned.

After Viserys left Andalus, the city was entrusted to Renis. Although there were no maesters to assist her, Renis did a good job, at least no major troubles occurred.

After all, her uncle Oberyn's camp was not far from Andalus, and Oberyn would always take care of his niece if there were any problems.

Through these repeated training sessions, the girl also underwent some significant changes.

"What's wrong with Renis?"

Viserys turned around, leaned against the stone balcony, and asked.

"Her Highness the Princess has tempered her temperament considerably."

"And he began to seriously study needlework and governance, and would write to Prince Oberon for advice whenever he had a problem."

"She really looks like a noble princess."

At this point, a smile appeared on the old maid's wrinkled face.

Renis was once a lively and unruly troublemaker in the castle. She disliked ladylike education, music, poetry, singing, dancing, and embroidery.

Instead, he's like a tomboy who likes to wield knives and guns.

At that time, Renis's education was a major headache for Sophia. After all, it was the responsibility of a scholar to teach a prince, while it was the responsibility of an old nanny like Sophia to teach a princess well.

However, now, perhaps the girl has grown up and gradually understands the responsibilities on her shoulders, and wants to take the initiative to share some of the pressure with Viserys.

Because Renis knew very well that she was the person Viserys trusted most.

If she doesn't help Viserys, he'll be very lonely fighting alone.

"Perhaps, Your Highness... really wants to help you in some way."

The old maid spoke first.

"Is that so..."

Viserys, upon hearing the old maid's words, raised his head slightly and stood there stunned.

...

The next morning.

Viserys awoke early from his sleep and rested for the night in Andalus. Today, he would ride his dragon back to Pentos.

He left Pentos without a word. If he didn't return for a long time, things might get messy, and Viserys was worried about him. Besides, he still had a lot of work to do in Pentos.

However, after getting up in the morning, getting dressed, and having breakfast with Rene and Dani, a letter was suddenly delivered to him.

It came from an unexpected place, slightly hindering Viserys's journey.

Chapter 247 Seeking Rescue

"The Night's Watch".

Viserys sat at the head of the table, the morning sunlight streaming through the castle windows into the quiet dining room.

A young girl named Rene, with long brown hair, sat to his left, enjoying her breakfast: bread, biscuits, milk, creamy corn soup, blackberry jam, and more.

Opposite Renis sat a little girl with short, silver hair that reached her neck.

Although Daenerys's hair has not yet returned to its original state after so much time, which would take at least several years, it now resembles that of a young girl.

No wonder the old maid said that Daenerys' personality has become much more lively now, and she likes to go out and play. It turns out she has become more beautiful.

The girl dipped some blackberry jam in her bread, then took a bite, her cheeks puffing out.

creak creak...

Then she noticed Viserys's gaze fixed on her, and her face flushed slightly, indicating she was a little embarrassed.

However, Viserys just smiled and patted her on the head.

"Watch your table, Dani, behave like a lady."

He then looked down at the unopened letter in his hand, only glancing at the seal mark on the envelope.

He never expected to receive a letter from the Wall.

Although the Night's Watch does not participate in the conflicts among the Seven Kingdoms, it is still under the jurisdiction of the Iron Throne. However, the kings of each generation rarely interfere in the appointment of the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch.

Why would the Night's Watch write to themselves now?

Could it be that they heard I would one day return to Westeros and were trying to build rapport in advance?

In fact, Viserys had dealt with far too many such matters. Every now and then, messengers from Westeros would secretly visit Viserys on behalf of their respective masters or families.

This suggests that their master or family remained loyal to the Targaryens, only forced by the tyranny of the usurper.

If the king's army were to return one day, they would surely turn against him and surrender, submitting to the true master of the Iron Throne.

"The Night's Watch?"

Renis heard Viserys's soft whisper, then turned and blinked.

“I remember them as... a legion guarding the ends of the world.”

Reyne had never seen the Night's Watch, nor had Viserys, since both of them were born in King's Landing, and the Wall was too far away for them.

Based on his precognitive knowledge from his previous life, Viserys was quite familiar with the Wall.

However, Renis looked completely bewildered. She couldn't imagine what the end of the world would be like, except for the books she had read about it when she was studying with the scholar.

At that time, Renis wasn't very diligent in her studies. However, after the maester died and her true identity was revealed, Renis experienced betrayal for the first time and seemed to mature a lot overnight. After that, she even became much more diligent in her studies.

Just as the old maid said, Renis had become much more reserved, no longer as unruly as before. She really hoped that she could share some of the pressure with Viserys.

"Yes."

"The current commander-in-chief of the Night's Watch should be Jeor Mormont, but I don't know what he wants to see me about."

Viserys nodded, and the two chatted idly, while Daenerys was still struggling with her bread.

Viserys then checked the envelope and found that the sealing wax was still intact, so he simply tore it open and pulled out the letter inside.

However, when Viserys pulled out the letter inside, he discovered that it was not written by Jeo Mormont.

It was a letter written to him by his great-uncle, Scholar Imon.

Is it him?

Viserys showed a slight surprise on his face, then his expression calmed down and he looked down seriously.

But after he finished reading the entire contents of Maester Aemon's letter, Viserys's smile vanished completely.

He stared intently at the last signature, his brows slightly furrowed.

"White Walkers have appeared at the Wall?"

Viserys knew this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

However, upon reflection, everything seems to make sense, since his existence has disrupted the normal trajectory of this world, and it has long since been rushing headlong down a path without lights.

He obtained the dragon egg earlier than Daenerys in the original timeline.

Daenerys hatched a baby dragon in an accidental fire, and then a red comet streaked across the sky but crashed at the edge of the Norfolk Mountains.

Then came the resurgence of magic, and the world changed step by step, giving him no room to breathe.

Melisandre saw her shadow again in the flames as the power of the Red God was restored. The followers of various gods, the blue-lipped sorcerer, the moonsinger, the shadowbinder, and so on all seemed to have their powers enhanced.

Even winter arrived several years earlier than originally planned.

Dragons, magic, and winter—everything arrived ahead of schedule, with dragons seemingly being the starting point.

In this context, the premature resurgence of the White Walkers doesn't seem so strange.

“Aemon Targaryen…”

Viserys took a deep breath.

"what?"

Reyne and Daenerys exchanged bewildered glances upon hearing Viserys's soliloquy, wondering which Aemon Targaryen he was referring to.

"Viserys, are you talking about 'Dragon Knight' Aemon?"

However, Viserys shook his head and said that his mind was in turmoil at the moment.

"Do not..."

"No, I'm talking about our great-uncle."

This was the first time Maester Aemon had written to Viserys, though the blind old man had long harbored such thoughts but had never acted upon them.

Until recently, Lord Commander Jeor Mormont led the Night's Watch on an expedition, only to suffer a crushing defeat, confirming that the White Walkers had indeed returned.
