Thrid Person POV

Westeros, 295 AC.

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

In the sea ahead of Dorne, the massive fleet divided, with a quarter of it turning north with 40 carracks and 10 warships, galleys, heading back to pass through Stepstone. The fleet was much smaller now, and this could attract many greedy eyes wanting to attack the fleet. However, they would only underestimate the arcane power, and anyone who tried their luck would be surprised by a huge kraken in the sea before their ships were destroyed by it.

Jon had loaded many items he acquired in Dorne, including the sand from Dorne, along with hundreds of scholars. The captains leading those 50 ships carried scrolls with orders from their king to start utilizing everything they carried for Artica.

Meanwhile, the other fleet was cutting through the deep waters heading south, aiming for their next stop across the continent. Jon intended to unload the gold and goods before loading new products that the Reach could provide.

"Hey, Jon, what are you thinking about...?" Arya approached after her training on the deck, seeing her brother looking north from the rear part of the ship.

"Nothing much, just thinking..." Jon spoke calmly, and Arya didn't believe him, but seeing that her brother wouldn't talk, she let it go.

"Let's go to the cabin, I'm hungry, I'd like to eat with you and Seryna." She said, and Jon nodded, moving away from the bow of the ship and heading inside, but not before taking one more look back.

He wasn't exactly thinking about his woman who left him, but rather the crows as they headed north. Jon had never had such a long connection, so he wanted to stay alert in case he lost contact with them, but so far, they were not out of his reach.

The group of 3 crows continued on their opposite course, following the instructions of their new master without stopping for the last 3 days. They flew high above the blue waters, passing by coastal cities and crossing the border of Dorne, entering the Stormland and continuing along the coast, only stopping to rest a bit and feed before continuing their long journey, with days passing and the crows moving from one coastal city to another.

Another week had passed, and they finally crossed the second border, entering the Crownlands and heading towards King's Landing, which took only a few more days. Finally, seeing King's Landing, the grand capital of the Seven Kingdoms, one morning.

Jon, finally seeing through the eyes in real-time without losing the connection despite the enormous distance, saw the capital for the first time not through green sight. He had to admit that when he was there, it was a bit different, to begin with, the smell was much more horrible than before, after all, the green sight could not have accessed it 15 or 16 years ago.

The crows flew over the city walls while some guards patrolling there, known as the City Watch of King's Landing, were just watching the walls while noticing the trio of crows passing in the sky, but none paid it much attention as they continued with their activities.

It was the early hours of the day, and at that moment Jon was in his bed with his naked wife beside him, so he just lay in bed watching all those scenes while the ship cut through the south of Dorne.

'This city, even seeing it through the eyes of these crows, I can feel how heavy the atmosphere here is...' He murmured as he continued over the red rooftops, a bell of the great sept ringing at that moment, seeming like the High Septon was going to speak something to the people at that time, but Jon guided the crows towards the largest structure, but not without passing by one of the most iconic places in the capital, the Dragonpit in the middle of the city.
