King's Landing has four avenues: King's Avenue leading to the Great Wall of the North, Golden Avenue to Castle Rock to the West, Rose Avenue to the Rose House of the Tyrells of Riverlands, and Storm Avenue through the Gendarwales to Citapo.
Tywin Lannister's army camped in the woods on the edge of the Tearstained Lake on the Golden Mile, not far from King's Landing.
The water of the Lake of Tears is a small source of the Blackwater River, and the overflowing water is connected to the Blackwater River by a small stream, and if there is a small boat, it will go directly to the Blackwater River outside the Red Keep in King's Landing. Beyond the woods in the distance, a larger tributary flows into the Blackwater River, fed by the waters of God's Eye Lake behind Harrenhal.
Tearstained Lake, legend has it that it is a lake formed by the tears of the children of the forest.
Before the ancestors entered Westeros from the Arms of Dorne, almost the entire continent of Westeros was covered with forests, and the sons of the forest of the four kingdoms lived in this forest. The ancestors entered Westeros from the Arm of Dorne, which connects the two continents, burned and plundered, their weapons were iron and bronze, and they wore armor, and they had the absolute upper hand from the beginning of the war.
The Sons of the Forest are armed with obsidian daggers and obsidian arrows, plus sharpened sticks, and with no protective armor, they are a small group of people with no advantage in strength. Soon, the kings of the four royal families of the Children of the Forest died in battle, and the Children of the Forest of the Four Kingdoms gathered to mourn the king at what is now the Lake of Tears on the Golden Avenue, and their tears formed this lake.
In addition to woods, weeds, and deserted people, there are many unknown legends around the Tearstain Lake, which makes people fear to live here. Legend has it that the fish in the lake cannot be eaten, and it will bring ominous information to people.
The Lake of Tears is not far from King's Landing, but it is not close, and it will take a super strong and rapid march to attack King's Gate, Lion's Gate, and Gods' Gate, and Riverside Gate in King's Landing.
At night, Tywin Lannister convened an emergency military meeting in a large tent next to Tearstain Lake.
The first vassal to enter was the Earl of Roland Cracher, the patriarch of the Chicken Hall, and he was followed by his eldest son and heir, Sir Tybert Craich. The boar family crest on their chests is made of black jade and is lifelike.
Roland and Tybert were the targets that Will wanted to capture during the night raid, and as a result, he took his five brothers to the Chinese tent and only captured two stand-ins. After breaking the gorilla and fangs, the result was the killing of Lile Craich, the most capable pig in the Craich family.
Unfortunately, when reinforcements arrived and routed the Craich infantry that had surrounded Will's party, Bronn turned back to behead Lehr Craich, but Lehler's body was taken away by his brother Mellon Craich.
The second vassal to come in was Bendett Bron, the patriarch of the House of Blonn. He is the head of Castle Rock, and he and his sons have a golden sprig of gorse on their helmets. The same goes for their coat of arms: in the middle of the black and green latticework, a silver helmet is adorned with a short branch of gorse, somewhat like a spiked helmet.
This was followed by the Spicers, the Pynees, the Farman family of Fairy Island (a family conquered by a harp), the Swift family with the rooster as their family crest, the Leyden family, the Unicorn Brac family, the Adam Malblane family with the first arrows in the West, and a burning tree as his family crest...... With the sound of footsteps, there were many family patriarchs and knights who came in, all of whom were the most powerful and powerful vassals in the Western Realm.
Under their banners, they are naturally their best knights and soldiers.
Duke Tywin wore crimson armor with brightly colored lions depicted in gold, and a huge cloak woven with gold thread. The cloak was so heavy that even on a galloping horse, the wind could not lift a corner. - The gold thread is heavy.
At Tywin's side sat his own brother, Kavon Lannister, known as Tywin's shadow.
Sir Kevon was a little fat, and his head was almost the same as that of his brother Tywin, almost bald, with a square chin full of flesh, and a beard that was carefully groomed, as meticulous as Tywin's meticulous repair of his beard, broad shoulders, thick waist, and flawless in terms of skin, clothing, and ornamentation. The hair and beard are golden yellow, as if golden.
Behind Tywin and Kaivon, in the center, stood a stranger in a golden mask, tall and with a narrow sword hanging from his waist, barely visible with its scabbard, as thin as a child's toy.
Tywin coughed, and the audience fell silent as everyone withdrew their curious glances at the Golden Mask Knight. Sir Kevon said: "The raid will not change tonight, but we will not storm King's Landing, we will send an envoy to negotiate peace with Stannis I. ”
"Stannis will never make peace with anyone. Roland Craich, the patriarch of the boar family, said categorically.
Stannis I was known for his stubbornness in the Seven Kingdoms.
But Kaivon didn't seem to hear Craich's interjection, his hand lightly slammed on the table, and the loud voices of the audience were quiet again, everyone knew Kaivon's words, which were Tywin's words. And Tywin, with his pale green golden eyes, was scanning each vassal.
"One of the conditions for peace is that Stannis I hand over Cersei. ”
The vassals looked at each other.
Everyone knows that this is absolutely impossible.
Cersei was imprisoned in the dungeons of the Red Keep in King's Landing, and although he was exchanged for a jailer by Will, Stannis I did not disclose this information to the outside world after discovering the truth - this was also the result of a meeting between Acting Prime Minister Davos (who had not yet gone to the mercenaries on the other side of the Narrow Sea), Queen Selys, the Red Priest Melisandre and Barristan the Kingsguard, and the commander of the garrison of King's Landing, Berry Dondelion, and Petyr the Littlefinger, who had not yet disappeared.
As for Tyrion, he has publicly sworn in the Night's Watch and has been freed. Tyrion's choice actually made Tywin feel good.
"We have lost a good chance to sneak attack, and we will face heavy casualties when we storm King's Landing. Adam Malbran said.
"Stannis will not make peace with anyone unless we swear allegiance to him and acknowledge his throne. Roland said sharply.
"It only takes three days to besiege the city, and Stannis I's head will be on your table. "And the head of the red-robed woman, the head of Celis." And we, without blood, march into King's Landing, and Joffrey will sit on the Iron Throne. ”
Everyone looked at each other again, and everyone's eyes showed doubt.
"The plan has changed, but it's a better plan. This plan will ensure that our elite troops will not lose anything if the first soldiers are bloodless, second, it will ensure that Stannis I will not kill Cersei in a desperate way, and third, as long as Stannis dies, half of the courtiers and most of the King's Landing garrison soldiers will mutiniate and turn to our side. We just had to wait outside the city gates for them to open the door. Kevon said.
"What questions do you have?" said Tywin Lannister lightly, "If not, the meeting is over, and we'll surround King's Landing at night and teach Stannis how to use troops without knowing it." ”
A gust of wind arose, and the curtain of the tent was blown, and it was not cold at night in King's Landing, in the south. However, this gust of wind made everyone shiver. Everyone was amazed, and a tall figure floated in through the doorway, holding a shadow sword in his hand, and the shadow looked like Stannis, and swooped down on Tywin Lannister.
