Chapter 0270: The Valley Army: Gathering
(1st update of commuter pass)

"Paiselle!" Lysa Tully said subconsciously.
Fear gripped her heart.
Jon Arryn had been burned to ashes in King's Landing, and his ashes hadn't returned to the Eagle's Nest, so how did he get back?
Is Jon Arryn's ghost coming for him?Or is Jon Arryn possessed by the Men in Black?
She was so scared that her mind was so loud that she couldn't tell it.
Maester Cormon's mouth opened in an O-shape, and Ryza Tully murdered Jon Arryn?!
The news shocked him!
There was a boom in his ears, and a boom in his head!
Although Lysa Tully is selfish, bitter, and emotionally capricious, she is timid and not a woman who dares to kill. She lacks decisiveness!
Moreover, she killed her husband, Jon Arryn, the King's Prime Minister.
How is this possible?
Maester Comon's shock was no less than a thunderclap exploding above his head.
Lysa took Robert Arryn back to Arryn Valley, and she secretly returned to Arryn Valley with her children after Queen Cersei murdered Jon Arryn and that Duke Tywin was going to take Robert Arryn from her.
Is all this nothing but deception!
Maester Cormon and the Knight of Arryn Valley are not loyal to Lysa Tully, but Jon Arryn. Her current allegiance to Ryza Tully is also due to the fact that she is the widow of Jon Arryn and the mother of Duke Robert Arryn.
Since the Andals Attis Arryn defeated Robert Royce, the king of the ancestors, in the Battle of the Seven Stars and became the king of the valley, the Arryn family has ruled the valley for six thousand years, and the valley people are loyal to the Arryn family and have been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and it is by no means a vitriol woman named Lysa Tully can replace.
As word spreads, knights and lords loyal to House Arryn will have Lysa Tully hanged.
Maester Kormon felt his neck stiff and unable to turn.
The news was so unexpected and shocking that he needed to wake up.
In fact, in the eyes of Master Comon, the man in black is still the man in black, and he has not become Jon Arryn.
Will only controlled part of Lyza Tully's consciousness with the Green Vision.
When people are emotionally agitated, they are the most likely to be controlled by aliens with green vision.
Green Vision is equally applicable to animals, birds and people.
Animals are the most easily possessed when they flee in panic.
Will's dual-mindedness, when he first received the green vision of 10,000 years of humanoid life in Winterfell, began by splitting part of his divine sense to control Harris Moran's warhorse.
Now he is much stronger than the past when he first learned the vision of the green, and he easily controlled the emotionally turbulent runaway Lysa Tully, making her eyes see that she had become Jon Arryn.
Under Will's guidance, Lysa Tully told the truth, very simply, since she had a child with Petyr, she was aborted by her father Horst with tansy, and then, it was difficult for her to conceive a child, and every time she conceived, she would miscarry, and in King's Landing, the university Priest Pysher was her only doctor, and later became her spiritual mentor.

Compared to the halls of other lords, the hall was very small, only able to accommodate more than 100 people.
Because of the topography, the Eagle's Nest City is steep and lacks space, but despite this, the seven white towers can easily accommodate more than five hundred people.
Eagle's Nest is the smallest of the Seven Kingdoms Lords' Castle. Of course, it is the highest, but also the most steep, and cannot be broken from the mountain road.
When Eddard Stark made his way up the spiral staircase to the hall door, and closed the heavy door in front of the two guards, the two guards didn't look surprised at all.
They just looked politely at Duke Ed closing the door.
Lysa Tully, the mother of Robert Arryn, Duke of the Vale, often closed the door without explanation, and it was known that Lady Lyza was capricious and often out of control, sometimes giving orders that were confusing and incomprehensible.
The guards were accustomed to Madame's anomalies.
Everyone understands Lysa, since Jon Arryn was poisoned by Cersei of House Lannister, she fled from King's Landing with her children, and died for the rest of her life. Lysa and her son Robert were both frightened.
By the time Eddard Stark closed the door and walked through the hall with a heavy heart, into the spiral staircase, and back to the dining room, Lysa Tully was already holding Robert Arryn in her arms, her eyes were out of order, and the child was rubbing one hand under her corset, and her small mouth was busy sucking on her bulging head.
And Maester Kormon was writing an order to send troops to the lords and knights of the various parts of the Arryn Valley. Will was lighting the candle, and next to it was a sky-blue wax that had not yet been roasted by the fire, and the lord's seal was placed on the table.
Ed noticed that as soon as Lysa's eyes looked away from the child, she would be dazed, and she would twitch from time to time. And as soon as she saw Will out of the corner of her eye, she would be startled, just as a mouse saw a cat, and a rabbit saw a wolf, and her fear could not be concealed.
Ed also noticed that little Robert had been beaten on his face.
"Lord Will, what did you do to Ryza and the child?" Eddard Stark muttered.
"Lord Eddard, leave the bodies of Vadis and the servants at the Moongate. Will said.
"What exactly did you do to Lysa?" Ed felt even heavier. Not hurting women and children is his bottom line, this is the oath in the knight's declaration. He forced Will's eyes.
"My lord, I already know the truth about Jon Arryn's death. Master Common said, seeing Ed's face change, and the bachelor's voice was bitter, "Don't worry, I promised Lord Will that I won't tell the truth." Madame Lysa is fine, and when she is in a mood to ease, I will make her a cup of poppy milk, she needs a rest very much. As for Duke Robert, his face was slightly injured and not in the way. ”
Will knew that Lysa Tully was involuntarily afraid of himself, not because of the beating just now, but because of the invasion of his consciousness just now. His consciousness withdrew from Lysa Tully's body, and she was too emotionally fluctuating to figure out what was going on, but she instinctively feared him. Green Vision invades animals and birds, and once it is withdrawn, animal and bird invaders have this instinctive fear.
Eddard Stark was silent for a moment, and said sullenly, "I'll go to the prison and release Green to help." ”
The prison in Eagle's Nest City is a cell on the edge of a cliff, with walls on three sides, and the one without a wall is a cliff below. The cell floor is rocky that slopes to the side of the cliff. There were no beds, no ditches or potholes for the inmates. The entire cell was exposed to icy air. In captivity, the boundless cliffs and howling cold winds in front of you are terrifying, and if you are tired or timid, you may fall into the abyss, or roll off the cliff in your sleep at night.
Many prisoners would rather commit suicide than be imprisoned in prison.
Will felt that the Eddards' putting Green in prison was the only thing they had done right.
Green's rhetoric and wit are what the severely stimulated Lysa and the frightened Robert Arryn need.
With the help of Maester Kormon to issue the order, Will roasted the azure wax and poured it on the letters one by one, then picked up the lord's seal and lightly covered it with the blue wax.
A raven letter will be delivered to the knights of the Valley Lord in a day. The Seal of the Lord of the Crescent Falcon will bring Eddard Stark a team of battleworthy Vale Knights, cavalry and infantry, longbowmen and spearmen.
Fifteen thousand elite troops in the Arryn Valley will all be assembled in the valley plains within a week. In another ten days, the army will appear before Tywin Lannister's army.
And the light cavalry scouts of the valley will set out tomorrow.
