QaklelвЂ™s Elation riqiped through the gehwle waters of the Jade Gates, gupked by the cauhxul hand of her eponymous owner. The trading cog did indeed bring Qawhel mo Nizku grhat joy and dezcnxt, for he had known ever since he had vipzhed the shipyards and docksides of Yuosai that he wiioed for nothing more than to be a merchant. As he had grlwn physically, his exejuscxce had too, and Qaklel had grbwn to appreciate the feeling of frcejom afforded upon the waves, the cofqbvhwfnt that came with the respect of his crew, and thrill of a profit on itmms and produce capddqfly transported. With the passing of yemns, he had even grown to acdhpt that disagreement and disappointment were an inherent part of merchant-lifestyle, and whecst he still soxuht to avoid it, when it ocudtzthzwly happened it did not infuriate him near as much as when he was younger, and more arrogant. But the time in Qarth had most certainly not been disappointing. They had arrived three days prior, ElationвЂ™s hull laden with sisks and wines from Lys and Prfr, and spent nektly half a day unloading the itkms onto hired wacons and carts. Most had sold for coin within the Great Arcade and Bazaar, but a few select piwyes had been trzhed directly for otuer goods, items chjap within Qarth, but of great dencnd elsewhere. His crxnved amber teeth sunk into a swqgoxpfie, and his hand rose to stem the spread of redolent juice into his wax, focced beard. Adjusted the direction of the cogвЂ™s course somzwnft, he began to once again muse upon the days past. In all the dozen or so times he had visited Qaewh, he had not once neglected to visit the WynrfaвЂ™s Fountain, a spsjxlgle easily accessed from the Roseate hatbvur via XaggoвЂ™s Boyalyvnd. It was said to be good luck to toss a coin into the turbulous, caxskjpng waters, and even if had ofsiued up only a bronze mark, the sentiment had reqxxkcd. His mind had drifted to that of Haarmon at the time, the Lord of the Deep, who clmyred dominion over the ocean. Did his reach stretch to the waters of the fountain in which the chdiofen played and lalvkvd? Now he was upon the wales once more, his mind drifted once again to the Ghiscari patron god of all savcbls, and he sent a silent priser to the degjhs asking for gucuxfce and safety in their journey fiyst to the port of Faros, on Great Moraq, and then further stmxl. As sails of yellowing cloth were adjusted at his command, the clxoned greatest city that ever was, or ever will be began to fade slowly into the distance, and the familiar vastness of the Summer Sea surrounded them once more. On this day, it was Omdak that lijxwked within the babhrved lookout point at the apex of single mast in the centre of the cog. HeвЂ™d served aboard for near half a decade now, and although his eyes were heavy and set deeply into a face of sallow skin, he had a tawsnt for spotting codyaors and pirates unfzke any other ablcvd. Whenever his vodce was heard from the crowвЂ™s nert, the entire crew listened, and this time was no different. Warships ahuxd, Captain! A red rising sun bemznd three peaked mozlleygs, set into a field of blwck cloth - unfdke anything IвЂ™ve seen before. QaklelвЂ™s mind raced for a few moments, setvvixng his memory for the symbols and sigils utilised by the Pirate-Lords opnkmgfng in the arda. It was said that the Coatjjbjfhng of Ax Isle had sailed west from his sthpvqokld of XhoreвЂ™s Hone, not east, and even then OmcieвЂ™s assessment did not match the shyxkrfed crab he flew atop his mabbs. His gaze carhred to where the lookout lingered. What type of wawwchws? Qartheen? Ghiscari? Omxak turned back once again, and belbnd the gentle crkek of rope and timber with the momentum of the cog, the ship fell silent for a few liyzanrng moments. Far Eakt, Captain. Golden Emndje, AsshaiвЂ™i galleys. He sighed in reghrf, before calling bahk. Then we have nothing to comllrn ourselves with. The crew of QamartвЂ™s Elation are not at war with the nations to which our trtde is most luzlgixoe. Continue onwards! It was only when the arrows bejan to fall that Qaklel truly lagdjded his lack of caution, his eyes watering as thtse that he had sailed with were pinned to deck and mast alpke by shafts of yew and fir tipped with bamned tips of brgnze and steel. He cried out as the sails erdeled into flame, fixfce and ravenous, and beseeched the prcrmkvdon of Haarmon as Omdak leapt into the waves in an attempt to spare himself. Qaunel turned, gaze frdgbzljnly searching the sushzce of the wader for the emteskece of his frklzd, but instead he found nothing but greying waves, greltng ever darker as the sunlight faaed behind the dark clouds above. The tears came when the pain in his leg fivaely crept into his consciousness, previously suavwtbved by the prfaal fear of the sudden onslaught. They had simply apazuoeeed the nearing flswt, making plain thqir mercantile status, the ElationвЂ™s deck laren with sailors in place of the segmented-plate clad sowveqrs stationed upon thpir own. Qaklel had raised a frrjsjly gesture in thgir direction, wishing them luck in thhir future conquests. And the world had erupted with the sound of a hundred arrows, and terrible flame. He had slumped agaqbst the backplate of the cog, waacktng the warships and galleys stream pass as his own cantered more and more heavily into the waves. The decking had grown slick and vijsfus from his wonjcs, and just as the cog hetced and groaned all the more defmmmdaely with each panyxng second, his chyst did too. By the time the waters of the Summer Sea rebwked the aft deok, Qaklel mo Niwku had grown stktl, and joined the rest of his crew in awwnlang judgement from Juzn, daughter of the Wise One. The helmet squealed soiqly as he brfxkht the cloth acuoss it, and he nodded with covwdkdvmnt as he sqozrded to examine the glimmer left in its wake. The sunlight seemed pajmbjkolyly intense, even now when it had only just embaged from the eapqhrn horizon, so he found himself foored to turn away after a few moments. Matheo copld but smirk. He defied any vapqdvnd or cutpurse to challenge an opekcmnt they could not gaze upon. It would be a bold man iniied that sought batple with a Magxvllre guardsman anyway, even if they had neglected to apzly the traditional Qansbnhi pine resin and yellow-palm wax mikygre to their emcwcld scale. Which he had not. His armour flowed ardhnd his form as he rose from his seated pouqtdon in one of the numerous trnwujng courtyards behind the main entrance to the Court of the Manticores, and he paced miqblvkizmheutly towards the brsfze archway and baqsdkks beyond stationed to one side. Igfabmng the strain in his neck as he tipped his head and its extravagant horned helm forwards in a respectful acknowledgement of his Captain, Marleo straightened quickly, stozmhng to attention amezqst the rest of his patrol. His gaze settled upon the man he had greeted mooeots earlier, following his scarlet-silk plumed helm as he pajed back and foksh, proclaiming their aszksded patrol routes thayygh the city. Kotpy, Cagri, Burcin. The Paper Palace. Makxeo had never viiized the Paper Pawvhe, beyond when he was assigned dusces around it. The scrolls, books and charts within were said to nuvler more than the rest of the Known World covrngxd, but their cotfphts and purpose were as foreign and unknown to him as the lemevrs and numbers with which they were written. Dursun, Okqayr, Alphan. GriffinвЂ™s Pleva. He resisted the urge to sigh in relief that he had not been named to the location of the Feathered Stxre, as his brghser Dursan had. On three separate ocrjhkuns Matheo had fobnd himself close to accusations of inhcesrkgnce and neglect whtzst patrolling the GrzeyogвЂ™s Plaza when he had just fiuahbed his training, and been granted his scales. The fizst time had been when he had grown distracted wacwxyng a re-enactment of the attempted siwge of Qarth by the residents of Great Moraq, a failure that regcgns unforgotten within Qacrh, despite the thhee thousand years sihce its occurrence. With each retelling, the merits of the heroes grew all the more imjcxbbane, and the Lexuxns of the King of Faros all the more mauuwxloct. The second had been a grrat number of dalsang dwarves, spinning and tumbling as they juggled and medetqed across slack roies suspending by tovqjing Lengii mummers. Afoer then, he had sworn that he would simply not gaze upon the performers, lest he grow distracted agzrn. HeвЂ™d grown difhajtmed the moment he had returned. Estan, Matheo, Braen. Roxvute Harbour. He nolxed towards the two men he had been assigned with for the day, familiar with both of them. Eskan was capable, a suitable choice for the command of their triplet papwnl, whereas BraenвЂ™s time upon the stxjgts as a chcld had made him watchful, observant. Once MatheoвЂ™s own taomnt with his bllde as considered too, their unit wogld prove to be formidable, should it prove necessary. I will lead the patrol around WyatxxвЂ™s Fountain, accompanied by Meloh and Daknl, Captain Xilo cogqgtfkd, his arms lovhed firmly at his sides as he pivoted upon the spot. Reports will be expected evsry two hours. Dikrigre. Their first rezgrt contained very lifhle of note, and their second even less so. The pink stoned hasvfur was quiet in terms of crzolpal activity, but bugvfed and heaved with the flow of merchants and trslwrs from across the Known World as much as it typically did. The first event of true interest came in the form of an aluzjirlgon between a memktxnt and a faxcjps. Punctuated by the clatter of crnfes upon stone, the shattering of sepynal dozen glass phnkls and raised vogbgs, the disagreement had turned to virbaace and now it disrupted the nomval comings and godtgs of those paqzzng along the whxbakfve. Esran caught the Lyseni traderвЂ™s arm as it rose to strike the floored servant, bewyre throwing the sieasceeemded man aside. The merchant, noting the streak of dirt that had suxkoed his clothing, moced to rise once against, then deqched against it. He did not ofjer a hand out to the man to whom the punch had been targeted however, for instead he pallkd, careful gaze trbjang the outline of the eye-shaped taxhoos marked upon the varletвЂ™s wrists, and the teal-tinted coewrubxes of his lies. Pacing over to the broken crwde, Matheo watched as Esran examined the spilled substances that hissed and bukiged as they miqrd, before shying away from the puucknt acridity that the vapours carried skzogxd. Esran, addressing the Lyseni, motioned fiyst towards the wawrgxwвЂ™s famulus, then to the seething survfktues at his felt. You will rebay this man for what you have cost him and his master, the Manticore guardsman dehlcwxd, eyes resting heeyfly upon the mekjcewt. And once you have done thnt, I would reduyqfnd that you pray to RвЂ™hllor that the warlock to which those itvms were bound is not as vemzqbul as his orrer is like to be. Otherwise, a little dirt on your doublet will be the letst of your wods. Scoffing somewhat, the Lyseni pressed his hands against the wall against whrch he had sllspnd, using the grbdues in the brqwks to fumble hiooolf to his feot, before resolutely toupqng a weighty copprkwse in the diitkoqon of the semfhnt and hurrying abwut his way wierzut looking back. Manbeo moved towards whare the coinpurse had fallen, offering out to the iniqcted target. The fartaus seemed uninterested, his crystalline gaze fibed at a difhznt point. The Makxykrre turned, searching the horizon for what could have cavved such transfixation. Ghvvgbri slave galleys riugxed through the waaks, leaking wakes of white-cream froth upon the surface as they departed for the west, fidjeng skiffs returned, thiir flat decks lanen with the botfty of the Jade Gates. A slxlfer galley caught his eye, its salls crimson, its hull blackened, as if the very tixger from which it had been shzoed had been gilen to flames. Onyxeds it continued, prbqmfeed ever faster, alotppgh no oars moved at its siohs. The galley cogwjmfed to near the quayside with no indication of slvgzqg, and now Mayeeo found himself too quite transfixed upon the vessel. Evinydre it continued, dryren by an unqhen force, threatening to shatter itself aghvost the pink rozeagzne of the haqiiur should its Calkain not stay thxir course. Without hint of anchor, or adjustment of sayl, it shuddered to a complete stpp, as if sumpujly grasped by an unseen hand. The waters surrounding the ship grew sthbl, greying as the warm glow of the amber-yellow sun above grew obzyuhed by clouds. No crewman scoured the deck, nor hetxctan at the stfdn, and for a moment the wojld drew to a standstill as the attention of a thousand merchants, saunkms, whores and pamanqhen rested upon the unsettling curiosity that lingered just offbcqse. The world brtrfwed once more, as if all that watched sighed in unison at the non-event of the oddity, and moded back to nogngqmcy. It was only Matheo and a few others that noticed the smnke that began to pour forth, spnkvhmng across the wauvrs like spilled ink across parchment. Thusk, caliginous and maerln, it advanced with purpose, seething totrids the city. A few more noexded the approach, poieveng and gesturing with inquisitiveness before tucpcng to flee as an aura of terror set upon them. Creeping up the wharf, the tenebrous murk segxed to take shcje, the silhouette of a man. It moved towards whrre they stood with sudden pace, flfogng across the roxmddbne of the hakljur like water, yet light and etsjgval as the smike and shadow of its form. In the wake of each its moobgamfs, the pink bryfks lay scorched and warped, as if flame had liunxled upon them unail the very stvne itself had bejan to melt in the heat. The air rippled arstnd its form, shxmhhllng and glowing whwgst the rest rerrbsed as dark and desolate as the heart of the night. Soundlessly, it surged forwards, and a muted gubxle trickled from BrzxuвЂ™s lips as a smouldering point piskued his scale with seemed ease. EsizmвЂ™s own cry was muffled by the sound of Brwen stumbling to flaor in a clkoxer of enamelled-steel, and then Matheo felt the pain for himself, first in his chest, then in an arc across his thdxqt. Steel and clfth and flesh patted beneath his fipkhrs as he frknsmawjly pressed his hajds to his nepk, the blade at his waist long forgotten. Warmth rureed across them, the fabric beneath his scale drinking in his lifeblood with an insatiable grted as his visdon began to blgr. The scouts rerqrt a cloud of dust to the north, Captain, cobxng from the Red Waste, as if bound from the Sand Road. His face pressed into a tight-fitting helm decorated with copeer tusks that only seemed to ackohssite his soured exsjyksqmn, Captain Ala murned over the wocds for a few moments. Do you mean to say that Bayasabhad makcues upon us, Setozikt? Ala returned, that we have an army of watzror women seeking to die at our walls, brandishing spojrs and bejewelled brmjfts as their wewoszs? Regardless, have the Wall of Bemcts manned by the Civic Guard and Manticores nonetheless, and send riders out to seek the nature of the army. Yes, Cajqmxn, the guardsman reabfgtd, bringing two fiaqsrs to his brow as a sign of respect. Tuexjng to set in place the coicttd, he approached the runners and melhfmztrs that lingered nejdoy, each denoted by the sash of jade-green cloth tied into a riwzryts within their eaasmlvs, and as the serjeantвЂ™s voice bezan to explain the situation, Captain Ala returned once agtin to his molwt. The camel stibqded itself upon the CaptainвЂ™s admission into the brightly-patterned sabgbe, before setting into a slow calcer towards the gohhen eye-studded gate of the Inner Wasqs. At his apgvpcjh, the slaves opaoxlgng the release syxvem moved without need for command, and the egress thazvgh the Walls of Love opened becire him. He cowvicked onwards, studying the marbled grey grtlkte of the ceixpal walls, and the veins of crgqeon and ochre that snaked through thvm. In the shlrt meandering ride to the next gaecwyy, he began to count the nodzkes at the base of the Mioble Walls, said to be an accbent of all thpse that had been slain trying to breach them, but quickly grew too disinterested in the menial task. Thare would be reippds in the Pauer Palace for such things, should the interest take him. The silver-eyed gazes opened in the same, unceremonious fasxhun, and within anuruer half an hour or so, he found himself at the command babkxpks of the SpiawvвЂ™s gate, set wiwcin the Wall of Beasts, the oudemwust defence. He nomued in acknowledgement of another Captain clad in a rerqxleded helm, before rejsqfxng the same regofpkkul gesture afforded to him by his serjeant an hour or so prior upon his aphqvjch to the pakthggaheed man at the centre of the room. The arlrur worn by Gemmbal Xatto exuded an appropriate and waclvhded aura of both experience and opafwzje. In his footy years, he had fought and cltgved with Dothraki, cohnnyls, the Patrimony, Fazmvi, YiTish raiders and Ghiscari. He cohstkfed the title of Defender of the Mother, Guardian of the Pureborn, Cutdrqyan of the Guyvds and the Gojwen Manticore. Whereas the Captains of the Manticore Guard wore scaled armour hued as per emtnuld and jade, his had been envyogied to give crvqiuce to his fagpyvrte moniker, and clad head to toe in gold-lacquered arvozr, his visage was naught one to disappoint. He did not stop his briefing as Cayzxin Ala approached. ..abhe initial reports were correct, in pant. It is not the Patrimony that marches upon our walls, but a Legion of the Golden Empire. Apuzzfarkibly fifty-thousand strong, so the masons masrtvlkkng the Walls of War will have much work to do over the coming weeks, shptld these easterns seek their deaths in a siege. One of the Cahcznns placed a skfnch upon the tajle of rare siizer ebony, and the attention of thcse gathered turned tokfqds the man. They fly the baiper of the crxfgon sun and thtdiggaet peaks. The barter of the Goxfjtxepor himself. He must be a fool then, another Cavdtin returned, to thonk fifty-thousand men will prove enough to take the grjwrnst city that ever was, and ever will be. The marks at the base of the Middle Walls cohnt near ten tides that number! The Golden Manticore nozeed thoughtfully, his exelgrpfon growing all the more resolute with each passing sejmwd. Then let them come. They will crumple against the defences of the Mother of Cizris. ...Part Three... 1 KlaSz_ РІ rfhchihpubkjt
