Chapter 124 Who opposes? Who supports?
Of the four dragons, the largest one, Black Death Bellerion, has scales as black as night and a very arrogant personality. Whenever the other three young dragons try to approach, they are always driven away by its roars, scratches, and claws.
Even though they had just hatched, the three baby dragons, each the size of a figurine, were already terrified of Bellerion, and dared not look at him from Dani's arms.
When Visser reached out to touch the head of this proud "little lamb" with a smile, it became unusually docile.
Bellerion had his own name, and Visser, showing no favoritism towards the three little dragons in Dani's arms, pretended to hesitate for a moment before naming the black-scaled baby dragon "Miracis".
Mirathys was the dragon of Aegon the Conqueror and his sister Rhaenys Targaryen during Aegon's Conquest, and the name also once belonged to an ancient Valyrian god.
Legend has it that Miracis could swallow a horse whole, and Visser named himself after her in the hope that he would one day achieve the same great feats of war as Miracis.
The young dragon, with its emerald-bronze scales, was named "Wormisor" by Visser.
Vormisor was once the mount of King Jaheris I. It was enormous, and when it turned one hundred years old, it was the second largest dragon after Vaghar.
Because of its bronze-colored scales, it was known as the "Bronze Fury." This young dragon also has bronze-colored scales, and Visser and Dani both agreed that the name suited it well.
The last one was quite unique, a young dragon with both milky white and gold markings, which Visser named "Sea Smoke".
Seasmoke was originally the mount of Lannino from House Valerian, and later was ridden by Adam of Shiphull, a dragon that was originally a light silver-gray and fought during the Dance of the Blood Dragons.
In the end, it perished together with Vormisor. This name once belonged to a proud warrior, and now Visser named it Sea Smoke, hoping that it would inherit this character.
Although the three dragons were not yet familiar with their own names, they were overjoyed as long as Dani held them away from Bellerion.
Bellerion lay aloofly beside Visser, seemingly uninterested in anything else in the room.
Looking at Bellerion, Visser was very puzzled as to how such a young dragon, the size of a lamb, had crawled out of the dragon egg.
Wow, it's already this big right after hatching. Visser has no worries that its size will be smaller than its predecessor, Black Death.
The birth of dragons among the Targaryens once again delighted Viserys and Daenerys, and undoubtedly greatly boosted the morale of all those loyal to House Targaryen.
In particular, when the news reached the Loras Islands, which were still embroiled in civil war, a few days later, both sides immediately chose to negotiate peace and asked the Targaryen family to act as mediators.
The Loras Islands, the former site of the Governor's Council.
Supporters from both sides brought the three princes, along with the surviving members of the Governors' Council, here.
Despite the tense standoff between the two sides, both viewing each other as blood enemies.
However, not far away, envoys from House Targaryen had already arrived under the protection of White Robe. Neither side wanted to bear the consequences of brandishing weapons in front of the envoys.
As more and more members joined the enforcement team, while their duties became fewer and fewer, the blue-robed men gradually came to occasionally serve as the honor guard, just like the white-robed men, to demonstrate royal authority.
Foreign Minister Jiang Gan was led by two rows of cavalry. The left row consisted of men in white robes, the Royal Guard, while the right row consisted of men in blue robes, the Royal Enforcement Team. Two knights stood beside him, one holding a black banner with three red dragons on the left and the other a royal crown banner on the right.
The so-called Crown Banner is divided into four sections by a yellow cross, each containing a design: King's Landing in the upper left, Braavos in the upper right, Pentos in the lower left, and Dragonstone in the lower right. The center of the cross also depicts a crowned figure on the Iron Throne.
The entire cross-shaped border is flanked by patterns depicting representative items or symbols from the seven countries, as well as the Velvet Hills, Andas, G. Doho, and other regions.
In the future, the crown flag may very well be adorned with a design representing Rollas, depending on Jiang Gan's efforts during this trip.
Regardless, Jiang Gan still commanded considerable prestige as the Targaryen's Chief Foreign Officer.
Regardless of whether the two sides in Loras had already fought each other to the death, when the delegation appeared, both sides had to obediently come out to greet them.
Not one dared to be negligent, for they had heard that the Khalasar, who had defeated the 100,000 Roaring Warriors led by the mighty Khal Drogo on the Dothraki plains, had fallen at Pentos.
Khal Drogo was killed by the true dragon Visser. It is said that on that day, His Majesty the King charged into the fray alone, first killing 36 of Drogo's bandits, then 72 of Drogo's Blood Guards, and finally shooting the terrified Khal Drogo with an arrow.
It's like being possessed by a god!
Such a person was someone the former Loras dared not offend, and the now divided Loras Islands dare not offend even more. In fact, with the arrival of their envoy today, both sides are already well aware that they are preparing to betray their country.
"Standing before you is the Protector of Westeros, the rightful King of the Seven Kingdoms, the sole rightful heir to the Iron Throne, the King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men."
"Emissaries sent by His Majesty King Viserys III, King of Velvet Hills, Reconqueror of House Targaryen, descendant of the true dragon, dragon rider, and invincible warrior, of the true dragon!"
Jiang Gan rode up to the crowd, and the two knights carrying flags behind him called out the name together.
"Please come, messenger!"
The Third Prince and several members of the Governor's Council lowered their heads even further.
Jiang Gan swaggered into the hall with the others.
He then took the seat of honor with an air of authority, and before everyone else had even sat down, he spoke first: "Today is different from before."
The two people smiled but didn't reply; they simply sat down on opposite sides, clearly separated.
"I've always been outspoken, as all the adults here know, so I'll just say it straight," Jiang Gan said, ignoring the crowd.
"We will obey the messenger."
"His Majesty Viserys's will is our will."
Both sides were quite pragmatic upon hearing this.
"Yes, the civil war in Loras has been going on for some time now. Although my king is in Braavos, I am very worried about the war in Loras. I feel deep regret for the soldiers who have died on both sides and the innocent civilians who have been killed or injured."
Jiang Gan began with a dry, introductory speech, then went straight to the point: "Gentlemen, my king has expanded our territory and defeated countless enemies. He is a great conqueror born in Westeros and who fought on Essos. His Majesty intends to incorporate Loras into the Empire. Does anyone on either side object to this?"
