[Lancel POV]

When Princess Rhaenys and I got off the ship, we met Oberyn in the harbor.

 
Oberyn "You took a long time to arrive" he tells me taking the Princess in a hug and lifting her on his shoulders

 
Lancel "Yes, many events happened during the trip" I said approaching him I said "We have a lot to talk about"

 
Oberyn "In the castle" he says walking towards the fortress and I follow his footsteps

Arriving at the castle, the Princess asks Oberyn to let her see her mother Elia, Oberyn is speechless for a while not knowing what to say.

 
Lancel "Tell her the truth" I tell him, because the more time she spends assimilating reality, the more she will accept what is happening in her life

Oberyn "She died in the castle" he says with tears in his eyes as he remembers his sister

 
The Princess broke down in tears at the news, while Oberyn hugged her tighter to calm her down.

 
Oberyn "Don't worry, little one, we'll take care of you here" he whispers in her ear.

 
Time after the Princess fell asleep, Oberyn gave her to one of his daughters to take care of her, it seems to be Obara by her appearance

 
In the gardens of castle Oberyn and I sat down to talk

 
Lancel "You must announce Princess Rhaenys as your illegitimate daughter, and Prince Aegon as your son, in addition to looking for a way to dye his hair black to hide his identity" I tell him, analyzing what can happen when covering any information on the part of the children, with the spider in King's Landing

 
Oberyn "It will be difficult for them to receive information from the castle, we have trustworthy men" he tells me looking at me seriously

 
Lancel "The truth is always revealed sooner or later" I tell him in a serious way too

 
Oberyn "We'll do it your way" he says after reflecting

 
Lancel "You must also train children so that they can defend themselves when they grow up" I tell him gesturing an assassination attempt

 
Oberyn "You saw something in your visions" tells me

 
Lancel "I can't assure you if it's a dream or a reality in the future" I tell him a little embarrassed because he believed the divinations

 
Oberyn "What did you look at?" he tells me interested

 
Lancel "To you and nine other warriors accompanying me to fight against Death" I tell him remembering a dream I had of being in a place surrounded by the Others and ten warriors helping me fight them

 
Oberyn "Who is Death?" he says looking me in the eyes

Lancel "You will know it if you are in that place and moment in which we face him" I tell him so that he does not question the existence of the Others

 
Lancel "Train me for a year" I say as I think about going to Dragonstone to leave a permanent mark on Daenerys Targaryen.

 
Oberyn "Why only one year?" he asks me surprised

 
Lancel "I promised to return to my house for a year, and the words that a Dayne promises he fulfills" I tell him surprising him by naming my last name

 
Oberyn "Did Lord Dayne recognize you?!" he says looking at me

 
Lancel "Yes, but the truth is that it doesn't matter what last name I have, I only have one family since I was born" I tell him, telling him about my family that raised me since I was little.

 
[third person POV]

After a month of spear training. Lancel has improved his grounding in this combat art.

 
Oberyn "It's time for you to fight me" he says laughing sadistically

 
Lancel "I don't like your smile Master" he tells him with narrowed eyes

 
Oberyn "When you're in a fight to the death that doesn't have to distract you, because your enemy feels sure to defeat you easily" he says with a laugh

 
Lancel "So you despise me for the moment, we'll see when I'm an invincible fighter" he says with a frown

 
Oberyn "Let's start" says as he goes on the attack

 
Seeing this happen, Lancel sweeps the tip of his spear at Oberyn's feet, who jumps into the air avoiding being knocked down while attacking with certainty towards Lancel's head. Seeing the speed of the blow, he can only block with the handle of the spear and retreat 5 steps due to the force exerted by Oberyn.

 
Oberyn "First miss, attack at a point that is easier to hit" says pointing to his stomach

Launch "Let's go" while launching the surprise attack

 
Oberyn dodges the thrust by passing to his right, hitting her in the side with the point of the wooden spear.

 
Oberyn "Second failure, don't speak in a surprise attack" he says as he laughs at his apprentice's pain

 
Recovering, Lancel launches a thrust at Oberyn's head, Oberyn blocks with two hands and deflects the attack upwards, then takes the spear with his right hand and sweeps the spear at Lancel's feet, knocking him down.

 
Lancel "Master, give me softer blows" he says between gasps from the pain

Oberyn "I don't think so, you must experience pain to grow stronger" says laughing at his apprentice in an exaggerated way

 
Lancel "I failed this time" he says looking at the bruise on his left foot

 
Oberyn "You only need to react faster with your body, you have seen all my movements, you only lack speed" he says analyzing his attacks and Lancel seeing each movement, but unable to react to his speed

 
[Lancel POV]

Lancel "System, what about my fighting instinct?" I ask about my inability to react

 
System "The Host needs to grow for this power to develop to its maximum capacity" says the voice

 
Lancel "Then why did I defend myself so well when I fought Amory?" I ask him intrigued

 
System "Because the Host has experience in close combat" says the voice

 
Lancel 'No wonder I don't feel comfortable fighting Oberyn'

 
Lancel "How do I improve my fighting instinct faster?" I ask the system

 
System "The Host has already experienced how to develop powers faster" says the voice

 
Lancel 'After his answer I keep thinking, until I come to the conclusion that it is through pain in combat (O_O)'

 
Oberyn "Hey, you've been distracted for a while. What's up?" he tells me worried

 
Lancel "I had a vision where I beat you until I was tired Master" I tell him imitating his sadistic smile

 
Oberyn "Then I have to take advantage of the moment when you are weakest, so that the beating is worth it" he says attacking me with a sadistic smile

 
Tonight I slept with bruises and bumps on my body, thinking that I have to make the lie I told Oberyn come true.
