POV Harkod Strong

At last, we managed to cross the Red Mountains, the prince's raven has been of great importance in avoiding ambushes of the looters of the Red Mountains, our squadron moves towards the ruins of Summerhall, the old summer castle of the Targaryen royal family that was destroyed during the great fire of the year 259 A.C, 27 years ago.

Mikael comes up to me and touches my arm.

Mikael Sand – Harkod, I think we must be about four kilometers from the ruins of Summerhall, Hugin tells me that there is a group of people, in the ruins. –

Harkod Strong – clever Mikael, how should we proceed? -

Mikael looks at me, - Mikael, you and your men will stay a kilometer away from the Ruins of Summerhall, while I approach with two archers to perform the reconnaissance of the place and count the people who are in the ruins –

Harkod Strong – clever Mikael – I call one of the northerners, the second-in-command after me, his name is Tiber Skoll a tall stocky man, Tiber approaches my position.

Harkod Strong – Tiber, we are about four kilometers from our destination, and the men prepare their weapons and armor, since, in the ruins, there are some people installed, Mikael will approach with two archers to perform reconnaissance and see if those people are hostile -

Tiber Skoll – Perfect commander, I will inform the men to prepare for combat –

The Tiber moves away and, in the distance, I hear the Tiber – Boys had to earn their pay, get their weapons and armor ready, in the destination are possible hostile forces –

After the men are ready, we move, towards the ruins, while we move the men and I are eating a piece of dried meat to have some in our stomachs some food, in case a battle happens, so as not to fight on an empty stomach.

When we reach the point, we have in open formation each man distances himself about three meters from the nearest companion, in a crescent formation, I am in the center with the three archers, Mikael, and the two archers move away to make the recognition.

An hour later, Mikael approaches along with the archers.

Mikael Sand – Harkod, we observe about twenty men, by their appearance and weapons they must be highwaymen –

Mikael Sand – the plan is as follows, let the men eat and sleep because we will attack after midnight in the early morning -

I nod Mikael my head to confirm the plan.

I summon Tiber to come and explain the plan, I tell him that I will perform the guard shift.

[After I received the rune of servitude from Prince Jaehaerys, I noticed that old wounds I had on my body had healed, my endurance increased, and my senses have become sharper than ataño]

Mikael approaches my position and tells me that it is time to attack the bandits.

About three hundred meters we observe that the group only has two lookouts, Mikael beckons to the archers, indicating them to take care of the enemy lookouts, two archers aim each target and shoot their arrows, their arrows penetrate the neck of each bandit killing them instantly, we slowly approach the enemy camp the archers stay behind to protect the rear and give support if necessary.

Upon entering the camp we discover that the bandits are in a state of drunkenness, so each man in our squad chooses his target and kills him silently.

The group of bandits was quietly eliminated just outside the ruins of Summerhall.

We combed the area we checked that there are no more enemies, we entered the ruins of Summerhall Castle, inside the largest tent we found three chests where the spoils of their assaults are stored, we left three northerners and the five archers to guard the entrance of the ruins, to enter the ruins.

POV Utias / Mikael Sand

At last, we are inside the ruins of Summerhall, [this place must have been beautiful before its destruction], as we enter the great hall of the castle, I perceive [in this place blood and shadow magic were used, there are still fluctuations of these magics], we move through the great hall, I manage to observe the fireplace to his left there is some debris that obstructs the passage [behind this debris must be the secret chamber that Prince Jaehaerys indicated to me].

Mikael Sand – Harkod, we must move this debris to access the camera –

After two hours of removing debris, we managed to open a passage to the secret chamber.

Mikael Sand – Harkod, only two people will enter the chamber, you and me, the rest of the men who stand guard in the great hall –

We entered the secret chamber, and walked through the tunnel, as we walked, I observed that the walls show that the fire reached high temperatures.

As we move through the tunnel charred bodies appear, when I reach the bedroom, I managed to count thirty-three charred bodies in total, when I observe the objects that are on the altar, I am astonished [are they Dragon eggs?], I approach the altar and I turn my gaze to Harkod and I can see his face in his amazement.

I see on the altar seven Dragon eggs, two eggs are broken, five eggs are intact, and the black egg is the largest of all eggs and is in the center, the remaining four Dragon eggs are in perfect condition, they are of different colors, one of them is a crimson red, another is dark green, another is bronze in color and the last egg is dark golden.

[Five eggs, wait, the prince's rune symbol is a five-headed Dragon.]

For R'hllor weeps, Prince Jaehaerys Targaryen is the promised prince, the one chosen to fight the big night and the great other, before I hesitated when Melisandre told me, but now I am convinced of this.
