I Became the Mother of Dragons

The Dothraki like to say "it is known", and when they say that, they don't mean that everyone in the room knows something, but are expressing a well-established tradition.

In fact, Dothraki's "it is known" is very wise for survival, for example, now, Dany's maid and Bloodrider persuade her to avoid the dead city that can save her life because she is afraid of devils.

Jhiqui said, "Once the God is gone, the evil spirits will go out at night to hunt for food." Is there any truth to it?

This makes perfect sense for herders who the chase grasslands and rivers.

Why does a city die?

In a world of this era, there are often only two reasons: first, plague; second, war.

It goes without saying that plague must be avoided, and massacres caused by the war will leave a city full of dead bodies, and the accumulated dead bodies will bring about plagues.

Dothraki are not afraid of war, but in the face of a seemingly irresistible plague…the germs that cause the plague are the "evil ghosts" in the mouth of Dothraki.

The ignorant Dothraki, through bloody experience and lessons of their ancestors over the past thousand years have summed up a set of survival principles to adapt to this land.

"I have dragons, any evil spirit will take the initiative to avoid if dragons are there." Dany can only comfort the Dothraki like this.

For a "fresh" dead city they don't need to remind her that it is known, Dany will vigilantly avoid it on her own initiative, but for the ruins they don't know how many years have passed. No matter what caused their destruction back then, they could no longer hurt them today.

Without delay, Dany immediately ordered: recall the warriors looking for water in front of her, Khalasar is changing direction, and the first 20 Warriors set off at this moment and went to the white city to find food and water.

In order to appease the worried Dothraki, Dany also sent the Black Dragon to follow them all the way this time.

Well, she will enter the Dragon Dream, commanding the little dragon's actions.

Things went more smoothly than she expected. An hour later, the Black Dragon came to the white city with the advancing bannermen.

It is a white city as dreamy as the bright moon and as beautiful as a maiden, with a white city wall and white tower, shining lights curtain in the misty air in the afternoon, as beautiful as a mirage.

Arriving outside the white city, at Dany's request, the Black Dragon struggled to fly into the sky from the bamboo basket on Aggo's back.

With just one glance, Dany saw the green in the city through Big Black's line of sight.

After getting closer, Dany was so excited that she got out of her Dreki state.

"There are orchards, figs, grapes, and I also saw peach trees." She stood up and took Doreah's hand, exhibiting one's feelings in one's speech, "Our Khalasar is saved, we can settle down there, farm until the little dragons grows hahaha…"

In the afternoon, the Sun was still hanging in the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and Dany urged impatiently pulling the Khalasar camp to set off.

"This time, don't begrudge your stamina, it's only two or three hours away. Aggo and the others have already prepared fresh fruit and sweet well water. Work harder as hope is just around the corner." Dany can't wait for the horses to run wild.

When she was 5 kilometers away from the white city, Big Black flew over and landed on her shoulders. The sky fell into the yellow of the sunset, and Dany and her Khalasar finally came to the white city wall.

"I didn't expect to see such a majestic building in the barren red plain." Ser Jorah sighed to Dany in an incredible tone: "Even in our Westeros, such a city is not common."

That is your Westeros, this is my white city.

Dany's violet eyes smiled like a crescent moon. "I announce that this city is occupied by me!"

Seeing Dany so happy, Jorah also played easily said with a smile: "Then ask Her Highness to name your city."

She tilted her head for a while, giggled and said a word, "Whitecloud", and rode her small silver horse quickly through the city gate.

From a distance this is a beautiful pure white stone city, and the three feet high city wall blocks all the dross. Upon entering it, she found a broken wall and cracked floor in front of her with devilgrass and vines growing between the cracks in the tiles, Dany even saw a thigh-thick green date tree growing in what was supposed to be the center of the street, with sparse green and shriveled dates hanging on it.

Maybe it came from a date pit several decades ago?

"How long have you said this city has been abandoned?" she asked the people around her.

"Looking at how well-preserved it is, it should be twenty or thirty years." Jorah said uncertainly.

Dany shook her head. "Absolutely more than that."

She turned her head and shouted to the old man who was holding branches and putting dates in his hands, "Effendi, come here."

"Oh, Khaleesi, I'm here."

"Boom…" The horse made a crisp sound on the gray-white stone floor, After a while, Effendi came to Dany.

"How old are you? Have you heard about this city at all in your years?"

"Khaleesi, you try a date." Effendi flattered, holding seven or eight pinkie sized green dates and them to handed Dany.

"You eat them." Dany shook her head.

Effendi then put the green dates in the saddlebag on the horse's back, thinking for a moment and said: "Khaleesi, I don't know how long I have lived, because there are few seasonal changes on the Great Grass Sea for years at a time. I can't tell exactly, but I remember seeing the winter snow about eight or nine times."

Not to mention the Dothraki who didn't have the calendar at all, even the aristocrats of Westeros, couldn't do it. The seasons and years of the Dynasty are all thanks to the annual Raven Reminders issued by Maesters of Citadel.

The world of Ice and Fire has no fixed seasons. Such as Dany, who has only seen snow when she was very young from her memory. Like many teenagers of this generation, she is Summer's child.

"When was the last winter? What season is it now?" She turned to the most knowledgeable Knight.

Well, it's a bit embarrassing, under Dany's hands, the reckless man of Bear Island has become a wise man.

Jorah Mormont scratched his tanned scalp, thought hard for a moment, and said, "When I was Earl of Bear Island, I seem to have heard the Maester say that this summer is very long. At that time… it was about six years ago, counting… it should still be summer now. It's been 10 years."

He looked at the sultry dark red sky, and couldn't deny that it was still Summer.

"You need a Maester," he sighed then, reluctantly suggested.

"If a Maester does come to me, it won't be long before every Westeros noble's desk will have a detailed report on me and my dragon." Dany is noncommittal said softly.

"It's not that bad, Maesters swear allegiance to their clientele…" Jorah murmured sullenly.

He suddenly thought of himself…

Perceiving Khaleesi's questioning eyes, Effendi was stunned before saying: "In my impression, the Red Waste has always been a taboo place that cannot be stepped into."

"Khaleesi, look!" While talking, everyone walked towards the palace in the center of the city passing through a place where six alleys meet, Aggo suddenly with an exclamation pointed to an empty marble pedestal and said: "The God of the white city was removed by the Dothraki. A Khalasar must have come here, and it is likely that a certain Khal plundered the city."

"Huh…" The old Effendi rode forward and circled the marble pedestal in the center of the street twice, and said in surprise, "There really were Dothraki here. I wonder what happened?"

"How did you know that?" Dany wondered.

"Khaleesi, have you noticed?" Effendi held his whip and pointed to the surrounding blocks, "This is the intersection of six streets, but it is also the city center, so there should be placed on a marble plinth the God who was believed in by the white city."

This statement was recognized by Dany, she nominated, "Then what?"

"You forget? Only the Dothraki snatch from other nations." Jorah chimed in.

As soon as he reminded Dany, a memory popped up in Dany's brain. After the Dothraki destroyed the city, they liked to steal their Gods or heroes statue.

The Holy Land of Dothraki, starting from the Horse Gate, has a main road through Vaes Dothrak – Godsway.

The road is lined with countless statues stone, bronze, cast iron, carved wood, and even Valyrian steel.

There are statues of Gods, statues of Kings and heroes, and even statues of Evil Gods and the Devils from the Shadow Lands.

"It seems that the history here is longer than we thought, at least more than a hundred years. The Dothraki were able to come here, it must be because the river was not dry at that time. With just a few hundred Dothraki warriors, this fortified city would never be conquered."

Speaking, Dany and her Khalasar had crossed the block to the palace ruins in the center of the city.

The Dothraki are reluctant to live in stone houses with ghosts wandering around. Dany has no choice but to let them build yurts against the walls of the tall palace.

There is also a fence to block the sun.

After everything was settled, Khalasar sat around the square in front of the palace, and the Warriors sent first collected a lot of fruit including figs, grapes, peaches, and apples…

Although the fruit is generally stunted, small in size and poor in taste, all her people greedily reach out to grab it, push each other, stuff the fruit into their mouths, and make loud chewing sounds.

"The city walls are white, the towers are white, the buildings on the streets are also white, the palaces are still a monotonous white, and there are skeletons on the streets. It's the City of Bones." Jorah said in a weird tone, rubbing his furry arms.

In fact, there are traces of burning everywhere in the city, but the blackness of the burnt city has also become muted with time.

In the dark night, under the light of the red comet's rays, only the sound of the wind resounding in the city's alleys are like sounds of ghosts crying, which is indeed a bit hampering.

Dany's two Dothraki maids were already a little uneasy, and when they heard the Knight's words, they trembled with fear.

Jhiqui cried out: "Khaleesi, we can't stay here, this is the domain of evil spirits, listen, they curse us!"

"What? City of Bones? Nonsense!" Dany glared at Jorah Mormont and said firmly: "This is Whitecloud, I am Whitecloud's City Lord, and this is my place."

"Sigh!" Big Black upon receiving her message, he opened his mouth at the right time and sprayed out a bright red Dragonflame 30cm long and about the thickness of a thumb.

The Dragonflame also contained a puff of black smoke, which looked terrifying.

The two maids stopped talking.
