Game of Thrones: The Drogon Voice

Chapter 208: Chapter 208: Marwyn Requests an Interview



Now Drogon has proposed to choose the Great Sept of Baelor, which is regarded as a holy place by the believers of the Seven Gods, as the site of the school. This obviously involves the element of revenge on the Seven Gods.

Although Daenerys has no idea what a fight at Drogon's level is like, and has no ability to participate, it does not prevent her from fully supporting Drogon with the power of the Queen of Westeros.

"Open the school in the Great Sept of Baelor and let the Seven Gods move to another location!" Daenerys said to everyone after accepting Drogon's suggestion.

As soon as Daenerys finished speaking, Tyrion and the others widened their eyes in shock.

"Your Majesty, the people and nobles in the south all worship the Seven Gods. Doing this might cause them to resist, which will be detrimental to your coronation." Tyrion said after a moment of hesitation.

"The High Sparrow represents the Seven Gods and Cersei and the other gods to kill my fleet and Drogon. I was generous enough not to order the Seven Gods to spread their teachings in Westeros. Now I just ask them to move to another place!"

Seeing that Tyrion wanted to speak, Daenerys continued, "Spread the word about the battle outside Dragonstone. Although we defeated the attack of the gods, we also suffered heavy losses. Now is the time to settle accounts with them."

After hearing what Daenerys said, everyone stopped trying to dissuade her.

Just as Daenerys said, the Seven Gods jointly attacked the fleet. If Drogon had not led Rhaegal and Viserion to kill a large number of sea monsters, Drogon would have eventually defeated the giant octopus. The entire Dragonstone fleet would have been destroyed in that battle.

How can they sit here and discuss the location of the school?

After the meeting, Varys spread the story of how the Seven Gods gave down oracles, performed miracles, and joined forces with other gods to attack the Dragonstone fleet.

The nobles and commoners who were originally skeptical about the miracles of the Seven Gods did not expect that the rumors some time ago were all true. The Seven Gods who had been silent for hundreds of years actually showed miracles again.

While marveling at the gods they believed in, they were also amazed at the black dragon Drogon and Daenerys's powerful fleet.

They also learned about the scene of the great battle from Varys's propaganda.

Participating in that war were not only the High Sparrow representing the Seven Gods and the King's Landing Fleet, but also huge swarms of sea monsters, sea monster leader as big as a warship, and flaming weapons. These completely overturned their usual cognition.

Facing such a powerful opponent, Queen Daenerys withstood the attack with only three dragons and a fleet, and finally defeated the opponent. Doesn't this mean that the three dragons and the queen's fleet are more powerful than the coalition of gods? After the

battle situation was publicized, and after observing the reactions of the nobles and the people for two days, the Red Keep issued an ultimatum to the few remaining bishops of the Great Sept of Baelor.

They have three days to vacate the Sept of Baelor or Daenerys will send an army to assist them in the move.

The whole country was in an uproar when the ultimatum was issued. The Baelor Cathedral had been the gathering place for the Seven Gods for more than 300 years. It was a sacred place where believers prayed, royal family and nobles held weddings, and the king's coffin was placed. How could it be moved just like that? And where could it be moved to?

After receiving the ultimatum, several bishops came to the Red Castle together and asked Daenerys to revoke her order, but Daenerys did not even meet them.

Unwilling to give up, they encouraged their believers to go to the Red Keep to ask Daenerys for help, but they did not expect that there were very few believers willing to follow them.

After Varys's preaching, the believers knew that the Seven Gods attacked Daenerys and the black dragon first, and even the coalition of the Seven Gods could not do anything to Daenerys. How could these believers have the ability to defeat the current queen?

There might be a few commoners who would respond to the call of the bishops, but the nobles avoided the bishops of the Seven as much as possible, fearing that their arrival would be known to Queen Daenerys.

After a day's work, the results were minimal. Several bishops dared not delay any longer and ordered the congregants to start moving important church items out. Otherwise, if the move was not completed in two days, Daenerys would really send people to help, and it would be hard to say how much would be left.

Two days later, looking at the emptied Great Sept of Baelor, Tyrion, who was in charge of taking over the church, never expected that such a large church could be vacated so smoothly.

And the resistance from believers that he had worried about did not happen, which made Tyrion feel a little unbelievable.

The news of the successful reception was passed back to the Red Castle. Not only did Varys and others not expect it to be so smooth, but even Daenerys, the one who issued the order, did not expect it to be so smooth.

In this regard, drogon explained it with one sentence: "The bigger the fist, the more powerful it is!"

The Great Sept of Baelor was built on Visennia Hill, one of the three great hills in King's Landing.

The three hills were named after Aegon and his two wives. Aegon built the Red Keep on the Hill, and Rhaenys built the Dragon's Lair on the Hill.

The dragon's lair had long since collapsed and turned into a burnt ruin.

Daenerys had also considered transforming the dragon's lair into an institution of learning, but the project was too huge, and it would take at least two years to demolish the ruins and rebuild it.

With the ready-made Baelor Cathedral there, there is no need to consider the dragon's lair.

After the sept was emptied, Tyrion found craftsmen and began to rebuild it. After all, there were still many places that were not suitable for use as an institution of learning.

The church covers a vast area, with a white marble square and a garden that can accommodate hundreds of people, and has a beautiful environment.

The main body of the church is built of white marble and has four floors. There are many rooms on the first floor, which can be turned into classrooms for various subjects with just a little modification.

Now that the academy had found a place to stay, Daenerys felt relieved and was more in the mood to deal with other government affairs.

Although there is an office room specially prepared for Daenerys in the Red Keep, she is still accustomed to handling affairs with Missandei and Shireen.

However, Shireen is still in the Citadel and has not returned. I don't know how she is doing with her treatment there. Daenerys even misses her a little after not seeing her for a long time.

Knock, knock, knock!

Missandei, who was busy writing, got up and opened the door.

"Your Majesty, Doctor Marwyn requests an audience."

"Marwyn?" Daenerys frowned before she remembered who Marwyn was.

The doctor who came from the Citadel to Dragonstone to assist her arrived at Dragonstone and waited for Daenerys when the Dragonstone army was heading for Winterfell.

When Daenerys passed by Dragonstone after the battle with the sea monster, she heard her men report Marwyn's arrival, but she didn't have time to see him at that time. He probably rushed over from Dragonstone after knowing that King's Landing had been captured by her.

When she arrived at the reception room, Daenerys saw Marwyn wearing a silver Valyrian steel necklace around his neck.

Taking a deep look at the black dragon Drogon who was looking at him from Daenerys' shoulder, Marwyn bowed and said, "Congratulations to Her Majesty the Queen on conquering King's Landing and ascending the Iron Throne!"

"Thank you, Dr. Marwyn, for your congratulations!" Daenerys nodded slightly.

Marwyn looked up and continued, "I have come to ask Your Majesty to allow me to remain with you after Grand Maester Pycelle officially takes over as Royal Master."

Daenerys also has some understanding of the maesters. They are knowledgeable scholars, highly skilled doctors, and they even have in-depth research in astronomy, history, and finance.

After completing their studies, scholars will be sent to various forces by the Citadel to serve the local lords.

In principle they maintain a neutral position, but in reality after spending a long time with the subjects and lords they will tend to lean towards them and may even be secretly loyal to them.

After Daenerys is officially crowned, Pycelle, the current Royal Master, is likely to succeed her.

Because the maesters who serve the king and the lords follow the lords, no matter who becomes the new lord, the maesters will continue to serve them. Pycelle has served several generations of kings.
