Chapter 0398: The Prince of Pike City Returns

Theon Greyjoy was very pleased with the daughter of the Miraham, who was not bad, but she looked stupid when she spoke. However, she made rapid progress in learning the techniques between men and women, and Theon taught her how to use her thin lips to please him.

"Sir, are you satisfied with my service?"

"Not bad!" Theon pulled up his pants and reached for the captain's daughter's hair, "You're smart and a quick learner. ”

"Please take me away. I can be a cook in your castle, or whatever job you arrange. If I'm not qualified to be your rock wife, please let me be your salt concubine. ”

"You can't do anything. The Iron Min's Rock Wife and Salt Concubine are already barren ancient paths, and I know that my father has always wanted to restore the ancient paths, but that is wrong, and it will bring disaster to us Iron People. It's as if Robert and Lord Eddard had warned us. ”

Theon remembered the year he was taken by Eddard, and the harbor of Pike Island was filled with the corpses of broken warships, and everywhere, black broken planks floated all over the harbor, some of the ships were half tilted into the sea, and the other half was still burning. Black smoke obscured the sky over the Iron Islands, and there was a faint glow of fire in the smoke on the islands.

The corpses of the Iron Folk floated in the crevices of hundreds of broken warships. More corpses were swept out to sea, drifting down the current's eye sockets all over Theon's eyes.

That scene can't happen again!

Theon pressed the letter on his body, it was a secret order, a secret order that could not be transmitted by ravens, and he was going to deliver it to his father Baron himself.

This letter was given to him by Robb Stark, and was ordered by Stannis I that if Balon Greyjoy did not gather warships to attack the Shield Islands of the Tyrells from the sea, after Stannis I destroyed the Tyrells, he would gather the navy of the West, Dorne and the Crown, completely destroy the Iron Islands, and eradicate the Greyjoys.

The rebellion of his father, Baron, laid the seeds for the complete destruction of the Iron Islands.

Theon, on the other hand, is the immortal hero who has come back to save the Iron Isles.

Theon opened the captain's daughter's hand and thought of Robb, who not only saved his life, but also gave him Stannis I's secret order himself, and told him to bring it back to King Baron to save the Iron Islands from danger.

As long as my father followed his advice and attacked Tyrell by sea in the Riverlands, he would establish immortal military exploits. The fleet of the Iron Islands had access to the hinterland of the Tyrells in the Bend from the rivers of the Shield Islands and to the Bitter Bridge. The river bend is rich in products, the first of the Seven Kingdoms, and the nobles are also very wealthy, so this is a good opportunity to plunder.

Theon thought he would lead his family's warships into battle.

This was supposed to be his battle.

He was the prince of the Iron Isles, the heir to the throne, and he, Theon, had returned.

Theon left the captain's bedroom and stepped onto the deck. The captain immediately groveled to him. A stupid captain and a daughter who dreams of marrying a prince, Theon thought contemptuously. The captain was greedy, and with a bag of gold he turned him into a pug who only knew how to wag his tail. And his daughter is not bad, and is a virgin.

The first time Theon took the captain's daughter to the captain's large bedroom, the captain's face flushed and his fists clenched. When Theon tossed a few golden dragons and told the captain who he was, the captain picked them up and suppressed his anger.

Theon came home well.

A bag of gold, a merchant ship sailing to the Iron Islands to exchange iron ore, a captain's daughter, who was originally a virgin, is no longer so. She was originally jerky about everything, but she was trained by Theon to be a very skilled woman.

Everything went smoothly and comfortably. It was even more refreshing when he led the ships of the Iron Isles to take down the shield islands of the Tyrells, and then went down the river into the heart of the Tyrells to plunder.

I've heard that Tyrell has a daughter who is very beautiful, even if she is not a virgin. Theon licked his tongue and pulled up his hood, and the waves crashed onto the deck, wetting his cloak.

The "Mirahan" sailed past the headland as he wished.

The iron-faced captain cursed viciously at the strong wind, the crew, and the son of Baron, the king of the Iron Islands, standing at the bow of the ship, an arrogant aristocratic boy.

Theon's gaze passed through the waves and led his neck to his hometown.

He saw Pike City, and he saw that the shore was full of sharp rocks. Pike City – his home – King Baron's castle.

Towers, walls, bridges, and overhangs are of the same grey-black stone, invaded by vicious waves, clinging to dark moss, and covered with guano. The Cape where the Greyjoy family's fortress stood, once plunged like a sword into the sea, had been torn apart by the crashing waves day and night, and now there were only three barren islands and twelve towering rocks that stood like the pillars of the Temple, and raging waves raging in the midst of it.

Towering over the three islands and the sea pillars, Pike City is one with them, and its momentum is gloomy and inviolable. The headland where the stone bridge leading to the largest island is located is blocked by a high wall, and the huge main fort is located on the island, and in the distance are the "Kitchen Castle" and the "Blood Castle", each occupying a small island. The sea pillars are lined with towers and outhouses, which are connected by enclosed arched passages if they are close to each other, or by long, rickety wooden rope suspension bridges if they are far away.

The castle's oldest building rises from the sword-like crack in the outermost island, the steep sea pillars beneath which have been destroyed by countless waves and almost completely corroded. The base of the tower has white salt crystals that have accumulated over the centuries, the floors above are covered with green lichens like a thick blanket, and the sharp tops are smoky and black, and there are constant vigils and bonfires.

Theon saw the flag fluttering on Pike Island in the middle of the sea, at the top of the tower. The Miraham was so far away that Theon could only see the flag itself, but he knew the pattern on it: the golden sea monster of the Greyjoy family, with squirming hands and feet, and a black background.

There's no room for Stark's Icewolves to roam here, and Greyjoy's sea monsters don't need to live in their shadow. From now on, he will lead the family's warships, just as Robb will lead the family's army, and the two will be truly equal.

Theon pressed the letter on his waist again.

Robb Stark's letter to him, though a piece of thin paper, is worth a fortune.

"My lord, is the castle exactly what you remember?" said the captain's daughter, who stood at his side at some point, timidly.

The little girl was full of hope that her pleasure would make the prince of the Iron Islands take her with her.

The prince was very satisfied with her service, and she knew it well.
