Edwyn walked through the open gates of R'hllor's castle. It was like a typical medieval castle, only, it had lava surrounding it with a bridge connecting the gate of the castle with the rest of the island.

The castle itself was made of obsidian. When he entered it, the temperature inside was so high that the walls were red from immense heat. Edwyn was profusely sweating and he silently thanked his ancestors back in Elemental Nations for creating the art of sealing.

It was sparsely decorated, mostly skulls hung in the walls. An occasional guard would snarl and growl at Edwyn but there was no direct hostility shown towards him.

Edwyn walked into the throne room, taking every step confidently all the while counting the number of soldiers the room had.

R'hllor, as Edwyn observed, was very tall. If he had to guess, R'hllor was around fifteen feet in height. With heavy and menacing armour and a large sword resting by the side of his throne, R'hllor gave the image of an overlord.

His voice boomed all around the castle as R'hllor said, "Human, remove that disguise."

Edwyn tilted his head and complied. Raising a hand, he dispelled the henge, allowing R'hllor to look at him. The guards started getting restless and some even wiped away their drool.

'Guess he was right. Other beings 'are' a delicacy here.'

"Hmm, you really are a strange human. Answer me, why have you come to my domain?"

Edwyn simply replied, "I just wanted to see what happened to Valyria and possibly get my hands on some Valyrian steel."

R'hllor guffawed, "Valyrian Steel! Hah! Those toothpicks made from dragon fire and steel?! Punny mortal, such things are not even there anymore on R'horiam. Hmph! Steel forged from dragon fire is very weak and beneath me to even be in my domain!"

'R'horiam? Full of himself, isn't he?'

"As for what happened to Valyria, I happened. I woke up and took back my domain from you puny mortals."

Edwyn narrowed his eyes at R'hllor and directly asked what he wanted to, "What are these beings? You told me that you could see everything in your domain. How could you let them act in such savage ways?! They call you their father and you let such things happen in your kingdom?!"

R'hllor roared, "Do not raise your voice in front of me you filth!!"

The guards immediately rushed forward and surrounded Edwyn, pointing their spears at him.

But Edwyn wasn't phased, "What are you? Are you really a God?"

R'hllor eyed him with a strange glint and said, "I have not reached Godhood. But soon, I shall. These are my children. I call them 'Firbolgs'. My followers sacrifice you humans in fire and from that are born my children, with every sin heightened to its utmost. I allow them to act savagely because their deaths and their raw madness increases my power. This world's death shall mark my ascent to Godhood."

R'hllor cackled and continued, "You might be wondering why I'm telling you all of this. You came to my domain, mortal. Do you really think I'll let you walk away alive? Hah! No, you shall be a part of my army. Seeing that you were able to slay my children so easily, you shall have a special position among my generals. You should feel blessed, puny mortal."

Edwyn was about to retort when he felt pain all over his body. It wasn't some superficial pain from a wound, no, R'hllor was actually infusing magic in Edwyn's body an turn him into a firbolg, forever enslaving him.

Edwyn fell down on his knees as he felt his chakra coils expand at a rapid rate.

'Kai! Kai! Kai! Kai! Kai! Kai!...'
