Game of Thrones: The Wrath of the Sleeping Dragon

Shortly after Yin Meng was successfully crowned as the second emperor of the empire, despite the turmoil and difficulties, he still launched his own sweeping reforms.

First, he consolidated the forces left behind by Diana and Heros. In order to peacefully reorganize these remaining forces, Immon no longer wanted to wage war.

Therefore, he issued a decree allowing the North to be upgraded into a kingdom subordinate to the Empire, and appointed his missing elder sister, Princess Diana Targaryen, as Queen of the North.

As for the Kingdom of Dorne, Prince Doran passed away not long after that rebellion.

Because Heros had forced Prince Doran to grant him the title of Prince of Dorne, Immon, after ascending the Iron Throne, seized the power of Dorne, which the Iron Throne had not held for centuries.

He appointed his missing brother, Heros Targaryen, as Prince of Dorne, ruler of the kingdom of Dorne.

Then he appointed Tristan Martell, the second son of Prince Doran, who held a powerful position on the Iron Throne, as Governor of Dorne, to oversee all affairs within the territory.

After ascending the Iron Throne and being crowned emperor, Yin Meng's series of policies successfully stabilized the chaotic post-war order. Through a combination of kindness and severity, as well as a candid attitude, he quickly brought all parties to a reconciliation and won their respect.

Chapter 1108 Family Legacy

However, good news also arrived at this time.

When Immun had just been crowned, his queen, Bessane Toyn, became pregnant with their first child, which was born the following year.

Queen Bessane's first child with Immon was a boy, a boy with very obvious Targaryen bloodline features, silver hair and purple eyes, which delighted Immon.

After much deliberation, Immon named his eldest son Viserys, wanting to commemorate his father, whom he had barely met.

Several years after the birth of her eldest son Viserys, Bessande became pregnant again, and this time the kind and gentle Empress of the Empire gave Immon a silver-haired princess.

Yin Meng named her Leila Targaryen.

However, in the year 328 of the Yin Geng calendar, or the year 35 of the New calendar, shortly after the birth of the Empire's little princess, Leila Targaryen, a very serious and vicious assassination attempt occurred in King's Landing.

A long-planned assassin force has set its sights on the Targaryen royal family. Unable to resist the wrath of the dragons, they have no choice but to resort to such underhanded tactics.

They had been lurking in King's Landing, the capital of the Empire, for an unknown period of time, and their spies had even been planted inside the Red Keep.

Because the first generation of Unsullied Guardians had all grown old and were no longer capable of protecting the royal family, these warriors had all been sent to Dragonstone to enjoy their later years.

Slaver's Bay no longer exists; it has become the province of Giscali on the frontier of the Empire, and Astapor no longer produces the Unsullied, as promised to the Unsullied by Her Majesty the Queen Mother Daenerys.

Therefore, the current Red Keep Guards are soldiers selected and trained by the Unsullied.

However, a problem arose at this time: Queen Bessane's second child was about to be born, and all members of the royal family, including the three queen mothers, returned to the Red Castle to await the good news.

But at that moment, a meticulously planned assassination attempt broke out. More than a hundred assassins suddenly flooded into the Red Keep, catching the Red Keep guards off guard, and attempted to decapitate all members of the royal family.

They were so audacious as to be insane, killing and hacking at anyone they saw, staining the entire Red Keep red with blood. They even stormed into the Magorium, disturbing Queen Bessane who was giving birth.

An assassin broke into the delivery room and stabbed a midwife to death. However, he was then killed by Emperor Yin Meng with a single sword. Queen Bessani was still severely frightened and thus developed a chronic illness that was difficult to cure.

This massive assassination attempt caused a huge uproar within the empire. Although it did not result in very serious consequences and no members of the royal family were killed, its impact was still extremely negative.

Although the Red Fort had suffered many attacks in recent decades, none had been as severe as this. This enraged Yin Meng, who ordered a thorough search of the area to uncover the forces behind these people.

He even dismissed his intelligence minister from the Imperial Council and threw him into prison to spend the rest of his life.

He also reinstated the infamous Ministry of the Interior, which had been abolished after he ascended the Iron Throne, and brought Messaria, who had been purged after the rebellion, back from prison, ordering her to take charge of the case.

Yin Meng's drastic measures did indeed yield results. After a series of thorough investigations, it was finally discovered that they were remnants of the cult "King of Light" that had been hidden among the people.

The leader of this remaining force is said to be Melisandre, a priestess of the Red God Cult who was once a trusted confidante of Immon Targaryen's father and a person from the previous era.

Judging by age, she should be in her sixties or seventies now, but according to legend, Melisandre, like Immun and the three queen mothers, still maintains the appearance of her youth.

Why did Melisandre leave King's Landing so quietly, and how did she join a remnant of the Church of the Red God and become its leader?

The secrets behind it may have been lost to anyone except the high-ranking officials of the Imperial Council at that time.

Yin Meng didn't know, and at the same time, didn't want to know.

He only wanted all these remaining members of the cult to die, so he launched an unprecedented purge, which in turn implicated as many as seven imperial governors.

The empire was established under Viserys and reached its greatest extent during the reign of the Three Queens. However, as the saying goes, the greatest prosperity is bound to have its downfall. The vast territory brought with it a great burden and a source of instability.

In particular, Immun Targaryen I ruled with a gentle and conciliatory approach after ascending the Iron Throne, which was seen as weakness by the ambitious governors of the empire.

However, they were powerless against the dragons, so they colluded with the remnants of the cult, intending to eradicate the Targaryen family from its roots and destroy the empire, shattering it and returning it to a state of primitive chaos.

Unfortunately, their plan failed, which instead provoked Immun Targaryen I's wrath.

After twelve years of thorough investigation, just as the truth of the Red Fort massacre finally came to light, a rebellion that swept across half the empire broke out in the 340th year of the Yin Geng calendar and the 47th year of the new calendar.

But by this time, the Imperial Legion under the reign of Immun Targaryen I, the second emperor of the empire, had become unprecedentedly powerful.

During these peaceful years, the dragons of House Targaryen also multiplied and laid thirteen dragon eggs. In the end, apart from one baby dragon that died young, House Targaryen had twelve more dragons.

Therefore, when this rebellion, which swept across half the empire, broke out, more than a dozen dragons flew to the place of the rebellion, and it was eventually quelled by Emperor Immon Targaryen I in just one year.

The raging fire dragon, with the shortest possible burst of power, directly destroyed the seven governor families' residences, quelling the rebellion and erasing their names from the world forever.

This also deterred other forces with ill intentions, showing the world that His Majesty Immon Targaryen I was not only benevolent but also capable of wrathful rage.

In the decades that followed, the central government's control over the local areas gradually became more firmly established under Yin Meng's rule.

He even uttered the famous saying, "Wherever dragons can fly, that is my land," which made him famous far and wide.

Yin Meng later sent Xu Yin, the youngest son of Xu Ying, the former chief steward of the Red Fort, a young man of mixed Eastern and Western descent.

He was appointed as an envoy to lead a fleet back to the Golden Heavenly Dynasty, establishing a preliminary diplomatic relationship based on mutual understanding. He also spearheaded the establishment of official trade channels and fleets for mutual exchange.

Chapter 1109 Seal Released

The first emperor of the Valyrian Empire was Viserys Targaryen I, the "True Dragon," but he reigned for only seven years.

This was followed by the long era of the Three Queens, with Queens Arianne, Reynolds, and Daenerys ruling the empire for over twenty years.

Now, the history of the empire has been rewritten once again. Immon Targaryen, the second emperor of the Valyrian Empire, has reigned for more than thirty years, becoming the longest-reigning emperor.

Indeed, Immun left a significant mark on history, but his story was not over yet. However, his beloved Queen Bessane Toyn passed away before him, and Immun was powerless to stop it.

Even though he possessed the ability to live forever, and time could not leave any trace on his face, Yin Meng could not use this ability to save his beloved wife's life. He could only watch helplessly as she quietly left this world.

Bessane gave birth to three children for Immon: her eldest son Viserys, her eldest daughter Leila, and her youngest daughter Jahenella Targaryen.

Now, Immon's eldest son, Viserys, has reached the age of thirty and is married with children.

His Highness Prince Viserys Targaryen, the Crown Prince of the Empire, traveled north to marry a daughter of the Stark family as his Crown Princess. She was Brenda Stark, the granddaughter of Robb Stark, the now over-seventy-year-old Lord Warden of the North.

This relationship stemmed from the guidance of their respective lords. Immon Targaryen I wanted to strengthen ties with the Kingdom of the North and his vassal House Stark, while Robb Stark, the former Lord Warden of the North, lived three hundred years before Immon. As a cunning old fox from the previous era, he was naturally shrewd and had long harbored such intentions.

Therefore, the two sides quickly reached an agreement, and the marriage between the Dragon and Wolf families became irrelevant to Viserys and Brenda's personal opinions.

Yin Meng's eldest son, Crown Prince Viserys of the Empire, inherited the best qualities of his parents. He was naturally handsome and had an excellent personality, being calm and composed.

Brenda Stark, with the blood of the 'Drow Wolf' flowing through her veins, is equally passionate, unrestrained, and dashing.

Although the two young people met on the first day of their marriage, their married life was quite harmonious, a typical product of a political marriage, and they gradually developed feelings for each other after marriage.

Two years after Brenda Stark married into the royal family, she also gave birth to a son for the Crown Prince of the Empire.

Viserys named his son Yin Geng.

His intention was naturally to commemorate that Targaryen ancestor. There was nothing wrong with the name Ingen Targaryen, but it had been overused within the family.

However, when Yin Meng pushed open the door and walked out of the room, the ward was already surrounded by a large crowd.

The first one to be seen was a man in his thirties with distinct stubble on his cheeks and chin, long silver-gold hair slung back, and pale purple eyes. His face bore a resemblance to Yin Meng.

He was leading a beautiful woman with a very typical Stark appearance, and in her arms was a small baby with silver hair and purple eyes.

Besides the young couple, there were two other girls with silver hair and purple eyes.

One of them was about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old. She was tall and hot, wearing a tight black dress. Her face was indifferent, but there was a hint of worry that was not easily detected. Her long silver-gold hair was braided and hung down her back. She was Leila Targaryen, the eldest daughter of Yinmeng.

The other one, who is only a teenager, is Immon's youngest daughter, Jahenila Targaryen, who is petite and has a sweet and beautiful appearance.

Perhaps because of her attire, compared to Leila, who was dressed as a man, Jhenira was noticeably more attractive and feminine than her sister.

"Father, how is Mother?"

After the door opened, everyone rushed over, and the first to speak anxiously was Immon's eldest son, Viserys Targaryen.

Although he is a son, he looks even more mature than his father.

But the young man with silver-gold hair, a Valyrian steel crown on his head, did not answer. He merely shook his head slightly, which said it all. A chorus of soft sobs immediately rose outside the ward.

...

Thirty years have passed, and the world has changed dramatically.

Neither Heros nor Diana realized that they had already spent more than thirty years in the challenge of the power of ice and fire.

When they finally overcame numerous difficulties and hardships and returned to this world, they suddenly realized that the whole world had become unfamiliar to them.

The old acquaintances have all passed away, and the young, vibrant lives are all unfamiliar faces.

Eddard Stark, Tyrion Lannister, the Hound, Sansa Stark, Littlefinger, Edmure Tully, Quentin Martell, and many others... they have all passed away due to illness or old age in the long river of time; time never shows any mercy.

However, the two returned with the powers of fire and ice respectively, successfully joining the ranks of the gods. But at this moment, they had no time to lament the passing of spring and autumn, because more important challenges awaited them.

Although Diana, Holos, and Immon went down different paths, they all faced their respective difficulties head-on and persevered, and were not easily defeated by them.

Diana and Heros then returned once again to the depths of the eternally burning sinkhole at the Norfolk ruins.

This time, the two have returned with the combined power of ice and fire, giving them the ability to shake the seal of the King of Light.

"Let's begin, Heros."

"To free my father from the seal."

With her long, snow-white hair reaching her feet, Diana turned to look at her brother.

Her eyes flickered with eerie blue flames, and her body was completely turned into ice. The surrounding high temperature instantly turned cold because of her arrival.

When Heros saw his sister, his eyes narrowed slightly.

She could sense a dangerous aura emanating from her sister. One was ice, the other fire; they were sworn enemies, but now they had to join forces.

But Heros did not hesitate; he nodded slightly.

"Ah."

Immediately, the siblings attacked together, injecting the power of ice and fire into the seal of the King of Light. In an instant, the earth shook and the entire sinkhole began to tremble.
