On the other side of the Narrow Sea, on the Boulevard de Valyria, Drogol reined in his horse, and his warriors, the Hand of the Flame, reined in their horses.

Everyone looked up, and the sky was filled with snowflakes.

There was no wind, but the cold came invisibly.

"Winter is coming!" Drogo muttered.

His team, after leaving Slave Bay, crossed the entire Dothraki Sea, and the number of his troops grew rapidly, reaching three thousand.

This is a Dothraki cavalry cloaked in the belief of the 'Red God', and their red robes and flame tattoos are the distinguishing signs that distinguish them from the Dothraki cavalry.

The belief of the Red God has developed rapidly, Drogo is not only invincible with Arrak's scimitar, his prophecy and healing skills are becoming more and more effective, which makes everyone owe it to the response of the Red God, in the flames, Drogo saw a lot of things, prayed for people and healed the sick, he healed many people by praying to the flames, which made his fame popular in the grasslands.

Believers poured in from every part of the grassland, and Drogo selected warriors who could fight and formed this 3,000-strong Red God Order.

The power of faith is infinite!

They crossed the grasslands, walked through the mountains, and entered the realm of the city of Pantos, and on the plains east of the city of Pantos, on the Valyrian Way, Drogo's ranks of the Hand of the Flame stopped, and because of the appearance of snowflakes, all the warriors who had gone to the Desperate Wall of Westeros realized this: winter had arrived.

*

In the Nine Free Trade City-States, in the Dothraki steppe, in the Slave Bay, in the city of Pantos, on a larger piece of land across the sea - on the continent of Sothros, the weather suddenly turned cold, and the sky was snowflakes.

Daenerys, Varys, Jorah Mormont, the Green Maiden, Quix, the Red God Priest of Valantis, Beneiro, the Black and White Courtyard of Braavos, the Luna Believer, the boss behind the Iron Vault, and even some mysterious people on the continent of Thosros, all looked up at the sky at the same time, snowflakes, falling from the sky, these people were silent, and a voice sounded in their ears: Winter has come.

*

Will's army stepped into Winterfell territory, and the cold wind howled, as if there were peering eyes watching the huge army gloomily in the sky.

In the winter town outside Winterfell, the common people of Winterfell began to be welcomed. In winter, the towns are crowded with people, and if the weather gets colder and colder, the number of people who come to take refuge in winter will increase.

As long as the summer is long, the cold winter is as long as it is.

This year's cold is even worse, and as soon as winter begins, heavy snow falls non-stop.

The party crossed the outer walls of Winterfell from the avenue next to the winter town, past the drawbridge, where the moat was frozen and covered with snow.

Will crosses the drawbridge and a voice rings in his ears: Winter is coming, Lord Will. A familiar, once-in-a-lifetime sound.

At the beginning of the crossing, because of the superposition of two souls, Will's soul power was more powerful, and he was regarded as a 'foreign body' by the 10,000-year-old humanoid life in the Sacred Wood Forest in Winterfell, and with the help of humanoid life, he entered the tomb of the Stark family in Winterfell and discovered the secret of Winterfell's unique underground hot spring.

This voice is that kind of human life—a mysterious prophet who is combined in the Ten Thousand Years Heart Tree.

In the sacred wood forest of Winterfell, because of faith, because the Great Wall of Desperation has been built for 8,000 years, the Great Wall of Desperation built by the builder Brandon Stark, from the construction of the Great Wall to the present long time, it can be inferred that the existence of Winterfell has existed for at least 8,000 years.

In fact, Winterfell has been around for 10,000 years.

In the Sacred Tree Forest of Winterfell, there are at least three Ten Thousand Year Heart Trees.

The Stark family prayed under these three 10,000-year-old heart trees, which was the tradition of the ancestors.

In the Ten Thousand Years Heart Tree, there has always been a humanoid life, in order to seek eternal life, the humanoid life and the Heart Tree are combined, just like the Green Prophet outside the Great Wall of Desperation - Brindon Hewen - the owner of the Three-Eyed Crow, is the merge with the Ten Thousand Years Heart Tree, thus turning himself into a humanoid life, and becoming the Green Prophet of the 'Children of the Forest'.

The humanoid beings in the Sacred Wood Forest were Will's first friend and the guide for Will to establish the Holy Inquisition.

"Arya, let's go to the Divine Wood Forest. Will said.

"Okay!" Arya suddenly has a strong sense of dependence on Will, winter is coming, and the lives of most of the people here will be lost, maybe Arya's own, maybe Will's life. Or, the lives of two people die at the same time. It is a luxury to be able to live one more day now, to be able to spend a little longer with the person you love.

"Jaime, you bring your army into the city and settle them. Will said.

"No problem!" Jaime said with a cynical laugh. Winter has arrived, and Jaime has let go of his shackles and become cynical on the surface.

Will and Arya fought through the second wall—Winterfell had two walls, and a deep moat between them—and the two galloped along the wall, the snow covering the horses' hooves, and overhead, two griffons flew over and into Winterfell.

Sansa stood on the tower of the main castle and shouted to the flames and azurite, and the two griffons flew down.

Will and Arya avoid the welcoming crowd and pass by the glass garden, which is full of flowers and winter roses, which are Sansa's favorite, and Lyanna Stark's favorite, but not Arya's.

Arya likes knives, guns and sticks, everyone says that Arya is a copy of Lyanna Stark, inheriting her aunt's appearance and personality, but in fact, the two are very different, Lyanna likes knives, guns and sticks at the same time, she also likes Winter Snow Rose, but Arya only likes knives, guns and sticks.

Will dismounted and walked into the glass garden, where the servants knelt on one knee.

"Don't kneel, I'll get a rose. Will said.

Outside the glass garden, Arya turned over and dismounted, although the garden was warm as spring, the flowers were blooming, beautiful and dazzling, and the fragrance was refreshing, but Arya did not go in.

Like these flowers and plants, Arya has never been interested.

Will plucked a blue winter snow rose, which was as beautiful as a transparent emerald.

Will greeted the servants, nodded and smiled, and walked out of the glass garden with roses.

The Sacred Wood Forest is right next to the glass garden.

The two stopped riding horses, led the horses, walked and entered the Divine Wood Forest.

Inside and outside Winterfell, the sound of a roaring march rang out.

Randolph Tully, the famous general of the Riverlands, and his lord, Lord Metz, were among the ranks.

*

"We may need another bachelor's. Standing under the Three Heart Trees, Will said to Arya.

Arya's heart jumped, "You're going to propose to me here?"

"There is no time, winter is coming, and this bouquet of winter snow roses is my proposal gift to you. ”

Arya's face bloomed with a smile, as if the light had been on her all summer.

"I'm going to call Maester Luwen. Arya's voice was strange, as if there was a happy bird singing inside.

"No, someone has already called for us, and Master Levine will be here soon. Will said.

"Who are you going to ask for Maester Lewyn?"

"A mysterious man who knows you and knows everything about you, but you never knew he existed. ”

"Who? so mysterious?"

Will smiled and looked into the eyes of the heart tree in the middle.

"Where's Mommy? won't inform Mom?" said Arya and Will at the wedding ceremony, hoping to have Lady Caitlyn's witness.

"Well, I think we'll finish the wedding under the tree of hearts first, and then go back and tell my mother. Will said, "There are so many people in Winterfell, if Mother knows that we are getting married today, then the whole city will know, and then we will have to have a big wedding, which will be very long and costly, but winter is here, and we have no time." “

"Okay, Will, you've got everything arranged, I'll listen to you. So, who's going to inform the Lord of Luwen?"

"Hearttree. Will said.

Three 10,000-year-old heart trees, three sad faces on the tree, three pairs of blood-dripping eyes, countless blood-red leaves, each leaf is the shape of a human palm.

The color of the bark is also very penetrating, pale as human lifeless skin, and the heart tree itself, whether you look at the bloody leaves, or the human face on the heart tree, as well as the blood-dripping eyes, and the shriveled and withered mouth, every place seems to be announcing the suffering of life in the cold winter.

Caitlin Tully has been married to the North for more than 20 years, but she has not been able to adapt to the admiration and worship of the Heart Tree. She was afraid to see Hearttree's blood-dripping eyes. Before Ed died, he built a Seven Sacred Church for her alone, allowing her to believe in her Seven Gods in it.

But it is the tree of faith of Stark and the entire Northlands, and the Sons of the Forest, the link between human and humanoid life and the gods, the only way to communicate with each other.

Any sacred oath must be performed by the people of the North under the tree of heart.

Arya's devotion to the Hearttree is deep-rooted, but she doesn't think Hearttree will be able to help them notify Maester Lewyn to marry.

"Old friend, winter is coming, let Arya know of your existence. Will touched Kokokoki's face with his hand and smiled, as if talking to his family.

The blood-dripping eyes on the heart tree were originally painted, and the sons of the forest depicted such a human face and eyes on the body of each heart tree, and the depicted eyes were impossible to move, but Arya saw the eyes on the heart tree looking at her.

Arya's eyes widened in surprise.

"Arya Stark. "I have seen your birth, your upbringing, your mischievous and the bad things you have done. ”

Arya was completely stunned, and Xinshu's mouth opened and closed, and she was really speaking.

"He's a humanoid being, a green prophet. Will said.

Arya tries to get closer to Will, but is shocked to find that she can't move.

"I've seen everything about the Starks, but a lot of them are too old for me to remember. Arya, you and your aunt Lyanna look exactly the same. It's just that you love to wear leather armor, but your aunt Lyanna loves to wear satin. ”

"Are you a god?" Arya muttered as she heard her own voice.

"I'm a cripple who can't die. If I had known that the time after the union with the Heart Tree was not good, I would never have grown up with the Heart Tree in the first place. Sometimes, life is too long, and it is not a good thing, you will find that all the good things have passed away, all the familiar people, the life you care about, the things you love and the things you hate, all have disappeared, between heaven and earth, only you remember yourself, you find that life is full of only memories of the past, at that time, you will find that you have received only one gift of life - loneliness. ”

"How long have you lived?" said Arya, still in shock.

"For a long time...... For a long time...... For a long time...... It's right. ”

Footsteps sounded, and Maester Ruwen arrived.

"Prime Minister, Arya, you are indeed here. ”

Master Lu Wen was dressed in a white robe, and it could be seen that he had just changed into a new robe. He held in his hand the ceremonial book of the marriage.

"Bachelor, Arya and I are begging you to help us marry under the Tree of Hearts. Will said.

Maester Luwen looked at the two of them, "I've been informed, and the voice is in my ears, but I don't know who it is. ”

Arya looked at the Hearttree, and the Hearttree's eyes returned to their original shapes, and the big mouth that opened and closed became shriveled and withered again, as if the eyes that came to life and the mouth that spoke never existed.

"It's the heart tree. Arya said, "In our Sacred Grove, there is a Green Prophet who lives in the Heart Tree. ”

"My body and the tree of the heart grow together, not that I live in the tree of the heart. "Humanoid life corrects Arya.

Maester Ruwen saw Hearttree's eyes looking at him, his mouth opening and closing.

The Bachelor's book fell, and Will reached out to catch it.

"Master Ruwen, winter has arrived. The mouth of humanoid life opened and closed, and the voice was ancient and desolate, full of the vicissitudes of time, "Don't be surprised, it's been eight thousand years, and the white ghosts have been resurrected, and a lot of magic, humanoid life, will begin to appear." ”

Master Luwen was stunned as he watched the heart tree's mouth open and close.

"Hey, Will, you shouldn't have let me show up. ”

Will smiled: "Immortal Prophet, you don't want to appear yourself, and I can't force you." ”

Maester Lewyn saw Hearttree's eyes turn to Will and blinked softly, he felt like he couldn't breathe.

"Winter is here, and I don't know if I'll be able to survive this winter, so it's time to talk to people. ”

"You will live forever, you are the Green Prophet. Arya said.

"Little girl, I saw the collapse of the Great Wall of Desperation. The White Ghost will come to Winterfell, and their leader is also a Stark, knowing my existence, and my legs are now rooted in the earth, and it is impossible to escape. ”

Maester Ruwen was surprised, "Prophet, can't we hold the north?"

"I don't know, but the most important thing for me is to hurry up and marry the two little ones, for Lady Caitlin Tully is coming. As soon as she comes, you want to get married so simply, and she won't agree. ”
