Suddenly, a giant dragon covered in fiery red scales swooped down from the distant horizon where the sea met the sky.

It started as a black dot, but in the blink of an eye, a huge, fiery red dragon appeared in the sky above King's Landing.

"Roar"

The Red Queen Vaghar's eyes swept over the bustling and prosperous human city below, and then her low growl echoed throughout King's Landing, causing many livestock to instantly lie down and tremble in fear.

"It's Her Highness the Eldest Princess!"

At the port of Blackwater Bay, the Targaryen banners and a fiery red dragon in the sky were seen. The soldiers stationed at the port immediately recognized it as the mount of Princess Diana Targaryen of the Empire.

"what happened?"

"Why did Her Highness the Princess arrive so quickly? And with so many ships?"

A commotion broke out at Blackwater Bay harbor, for they already knew that Princess Diana was about to sail to King's Landing to marry Prince Regent Herlos Targaryen.

However, no one expected that Her Highness the Princess would arrive so quickly, and with so many warships.

According to the reports and information received from the front, Her Highness the Princess's ship should have only reached Seagull Town.

Although the speed of a ship is not constant and is affected by many factors such as sea winds and ocean currents, it is not enough to cross hundreds or thousands of nautical miles in one night.

Moreover, according to the information they received, the ship that Diana was on was just a single warship with a maximum of a few hundred guards.

However, looking out from the watchtower now, what appears to be a warship with hundreds of guards and attendants is not a warship at all.

This clearly means they've brought a full-strength fleet!

"Go! Immediately inform His Highness the Regent!"

The port master of Blackwater Bay, his face ashen, hurriedly gave an order to a shipping officer beside him.

"But my lord, His Highness the Prince should not be in Red Castle at the moment."

"Moreover, if His Highness were in the Red Keep right now, he should have already heard that dragon roar."

However, the shipping officer looked somewhat bewildered, unsure of the significance of his actions.

Then, in a fit of anger, he was kicked in the butt by his own parents.

"Just go when I tell you to!"

"Get out of here!"

"We've done everything we were supposed to do. Whatever happens next, we won't be held responsible for anything later!"

The Port Master of Blackwater Bay controls the entrance and exit to King's Landing, making it an extremely important position. Therefore, the current Port Master of Blackwater Bay is no longer the same person as before, but has been replaced by a confidant of Herlos Targaryen.

However, although he was a confidant of Heros, it did not mean that he would fight the princess to the death at this time.

He might have done that before, but after serving as the Port Master of Blackwater Bay for a few months, he has come to understand the rules of the game that one should know in this position.

Moreover, he was merely a port official; if Her Highness the Princess were to launch an attack, he would be utterly unable to withstand it with his meager resources.

It's better to do what you're supposed to do and then observe how things develop.

"Ship to shore!"

"Ship to shore!"

"anchor!"

The harbor at Blackwater Bay was cleared of the remaining idle vessels, making room for Her Highness the Princess's fleet to dock.

The port master of Blackwater Bay, with his graying hair and impeccably dressed, hurriedly arrived at the port to greet them.

Rushing

However, what came towards them were squads of fully armed imperial soldiers.

"here!"

"Get moving!"

"Hurry up!"

These imperial soldiers were clad in dark armor, gripped weapons, and had cold, unwavering expressions.

Ignoring the port authority who was standing on the port to greet them, they issued orders in a mumbled accent and quickly took control of the key import and export points of Blackwater Bay Port.

"These people are..."

The port master didn't feel embarrassed that no one paid attention to him. On the contrary, because he had traveled all over the country and was familiar with the accents of various places, hearing the accents of these imperial soldiers and catching a glimpse of the cloak insignia on their armor stirred up a huge wave in his heart.

"When did Her Highness the Princess make contact with the Iron People?"

Chapter 1076 Controlling the Port

The Ironborn are, in fact, not much different from the people of the rest of Westeros.

Although they have the blood of their ancestors, the blood flowing in their veins is mostly that of the Andals.

Therefore, in addition to their red and rough cheeks from years of exposure to the fierce sea wind, their husky accents, as if they had phlegm in their mouths, were even more distinguishable from their identities.

However, the most obvious signs are the epaulets on the soldiers' shoulders and their cloaks.

They are the most unique navy in the empire, where people of all ages, from the elderly to women and children, can all take up a sword and join the battle. They are a powerful iron fleet that sweeps across the Sunset Sea.

Therefore, although the Iron Islands were emptied of population due to events thirty years ago, the Iron Fleet still maintains a strong combat capability after years of migration, population relocation, and other restructuring.

However, the Iron Islands have always maintained a cautious attitude towards the 'War of Gold and Silver' on Westeros.

Euron Greyjoy, the current governor of the Iron Islands, is also the commander of the Iron Fleet.

After taking control of the Imperial Council, Heros issued an edict in the name of the Regent Prince, ordering governors from all regions to come to the capital to pay homage and report on their duties.

However, Euron, like many other governors, chose a cautious approach. He replied that he was loyal to the Iron Throne and had no other intentions, and then found a reason not to go.

In general, under the system of noble elections and imperial appointments, no one who could become a governor was incompetent.

Aside from nobles who chose sides to support their own interests or preserve their existing power, the rest of the people tried to remain neutral and did not easily get involved in the struggle for the throne.

However, now, Youren, who had suddenly changed his personality many years ago and had always been low-key, has joined the side of the eldest princess.

If the Iron Fleet suddenly joined Princess Eldest's journey and then changed ships to sail towards King's Landing on Iron Fleet warships, then all the mysteries would be solved.

"It turns out that Her Highness the Princess has somehow won over the Governor of the Iron Islands."

"If it's the Iron Fleet, then everything makes sense."

The port master of Blackwater Bay felt bitter. After all, he was a confidant of Heros. If His Highness Heros fell, he might lose his position, but it was better than losing his life.

If he could be more decisive and surrender, he might be able to keep his position based on his performance.

In a time of peace, everyone in the court of the current ruler is shrewd and calculating. Therefore, he abandoned his lord without hesitation.

Unfortunately, the Iron Fleet soldiers ignored him, and in addition to the Iron Fleet soldiers, a large number of Northern soldiers also disembarked from the warships.

Deng Deng Deng

He saw Robb Stark, the imposing and powerful Lord General of the North, clad in a wolf fur coat, descending from the deck via the wooden gangway.

He was also a renowned general in the empire, but in terms of seniority and fame, he was far behind Bessie and Oberon.

Beside Robb Stark was another handsome Stark general, Brandon Stark.

He gave the port authority a subtle smile, but didn't say anything, and then left.

He then even saw a female general wearing a black bear emblem.

The other party was clad in armor with a long sword hanging at his waist, exuding a murderous aura. His expression was arrogant and indifferent. He ignored the port master's gaze and strode away.

Following closely behind was a man completely shrouded in black robes. He slightly raised his head and looked nostalgically at the bustling capital, where he had once briefly resided.

However, in that fleeting glimpse, the port authority saw that the other person's face was extremely pale, almost like that of a dead man.

But before the port authority of Blackwater Bay could even open its mouth in surprise...

Then came a woman with skin as pale as moonlight, blue eyes like stars, flawless white hair, a beautiful face, and a black stone necklace on her chest.

The other woman carried a transparent, icy longbow, but had no quiver. She approached the man in black robes from behind, patted his backside, and jokingly asked him what he was looking at.

"This is"

Then, the beautiful woman with white hair, exuding a physically cold aura like a large block of ice, seemed to sense the port master's gaze.

She turned to look at him and found him staring at her with a look of utter disbelief, his mouth agape as if he could fit an apple in it.

Then the beautiful white-haired woman smiled slightly at the other person and nodded.

They seemed to have long been used to such shocked gazes.

"Hey, Lyanna"

Meanwhile, the man wrapped in a black robe was patted on the butt by the white-haired woman, and he immediately raised his head in dissatisfaction, seemingly saying something.

However, the white-haired woman didn't seem to care and continued to smile.

Then the port master of Blackwater Bay saw a maggot fall from the eye socket of the man wrapped in the black robe.

"What...what kind of gods are these?!"

The port chief of Blackwater Bay had traveled all over the country and had seen many strange and interesting things.

However, I have never been so shocked that I felt my worldview, which I have lived for decades, had collapsed.

Why would there be a dead person who can talk and is quite talkative?

And beside that dead man, if all the stories he had heard in his entire life were true...

Isn't that a White Walker?!

Weren't the White Walkers wiped out by His Majesty the Great Emperor?

Why is there still a living female White Walker in this world? And she even seemed to nod and smile at me?

The north of the Empire is the edge of the world, and beyond the Neck Lagoon lies the birthplace of the White Walkers and the Long Night, a region shrouded in mystery.

However, the port master had met many Northerners before. He was a shipping officer personally promoted by Herlos when he was in Seagull Town, but at this moment his worldview collapsed.

He stood there, dumbfounded, watching the pair of White Walkers and wights disappear into the distance, when a voice came from the deck.

"Good day, Lord Rod Korvat, it's been a long time."
