Thrid Person POV

Westeros, 296 AC.

---------------------------------------

In an extremely beautiful place with various flowers and plants, while the light struck like a ray in the middle of that location, someone approached and went to the middle of it. Jon, wearing simple clothes, looked at his special garden, different from the one in the castle where he could place a vast collection of flowers that would make any Tyrell envious, exclusively for his wives to have a privileged view.

Here, things were a bit different; the colors were replaced by not so variable tones, and much of the smell was substituted by the toxic odor of some of his plants and flowers. This was the king's greenhouse, inaugurated two weeks ago, and he had spent more time here than anywhere else at the moment, occupied with his projects, after all, he had very limited time with the trip to Essos.

He was planning potions and medicine, while Seraphine was by his side. "Jon. Can you say this will work? I mean, it's kind of hard to believe... even for you..." The child of the forest looked at him with suspicion.

"I studied Valyrian steel and even dragonglass to create something like this, let's see if it works." Jon commented as he reached the middle of the place where there was a tree with many leaves around it with large cocoons at its tip. The strange tree was bathed in more sunlight than any other.

Jon approached, and this was his years-long project, which he finally put into practice after much study and applying his knowledge. He created a not-so-perfect portal, but he would improve it from now on, as he approached one of the cocoons and opened it, with Seraphine watching with great interest.

In the cocoon, it opened as if to show its fruit, but instead of something edible, a red crystal emerged from it. Jon calmly pulled it out without damaging the plant, and the crystal was seen by both with some admiration.

But the child of the forest saw the normal crystal and looked at Jon with some suspicion. "You spent two weeks energizing the Grand Weirwood for this crystal, does it really work?" she asked.

It was true that Jon had spent two weeks using his magic directly on the plant, which needed more of his energy to grow than any other he had ever used in his life. Jon was not shaken by Seraphine's skeptical tone and looked at the crystal attentively as it suddenly shone like a great bonfire, making the child of the forest, who always had an air of seriousness and erudition, become alarmed.

"Wait... it worked!!!" she exclaimed louder than she intended, looking at Jon and his crystal with caution.

"Yes..." Jon smiled at the light illuminating everything with a red hue.

This was his great project, to create magical crystals through his powers with a special plant, which would become a new transformation for Artica, a magical city with its own light, illuminating the streets and the families that made up this kingdom.

"This is amazing, King Jon!!" Leaf approached at that moment, carrying two babies in each arm, her own children whom she had given birth to in the last moons, looking with interest at the crystal, aware of Jon's plan and being more skeptical about it than Seraphine.

"Yes... but it's not perfect at all..." Jon had to admit, as the crystal began to lose its brightness and fade completely, as if it were losing its energy and dying.

"That's a shame..." Seraphine, who was quite excited that Jon's plan had worked, was a little disappointed that the crystal had died.

"You don't need to worry about that, it's just a prototype. It doesn't have infinite energy, but I can maintain it, I just have to make it store more energy so it doesn't go out so quickly." Jon spoke, still satisfied that he had made some progress on his project.
