Game of Thrones: Winter Dragon Lord

Chapter 2 The Cook's Dream

"Enough," Ser Alliser Thorne's voice pierced Valyrian steel.

He was yelling at a few young boys who were fighting, as the instructor on the Great Wall, he would do this every time a newcomer came, Cole didn't like his contemptuous tone, he felt that knights should abide by the humility in the creed, like' Like Baelor the Brokenspear, he is willing to fight for the weak.

This is not a question that a cook should think about, especially a cook on the Great Wall.

He was picked up from the King's Row by Maester Aemon on a cold winter night. He was told by Maester Aemon that his face was already pale from the cold and he couldn't even cry out. Everyone thought that He probably wouldn't survive that night, but his cries woke up the night watchman brothers in the entire tower the next morning.

Commander-in-Chief Kogel also joked, "This kid has a loud voice, he is a Ranger material."

Who knew that this sentence was like a curse, Lin Dong did not take away his life, but his health, as long as he stood on the city wall, he was afraid that he would be blown away by the wind, his body was too thin, He will never be a Ranger.

At this time, the cold wind was blowing, making him tremble uncontrollably. He was obviously wrapped in sheepskin clothes, but no matter how many clothes he wore beside the Great Wall, he couldn't stop the knife-like cold.

Seeing him staring at the arena in a daze again, the officer Clydas couldn't help shouting to him: "Hey, little ranger, if you keep staring in a daze, Maester Aemon will starve to death."

Cole came back to his senses and looked at him apologetically. Clydas was short, bald, with dark red eyes, hunchbacked, round face with almost no chin, and a sheepskin coat full of patches.The body is not thin, maybe the position of the clerical officer is more lucrative.

Because he didn't join the Night's Watch, Cole doesn't serve in Castle Black. His 15-year-old name day is next year, when he can swear to the gods to join the Black Army.

But these years, he has been following Maester Aemon, so he can be regarded as a small affairs officer. Although he does not have the talent to become a ranger, Cole can cook well. All boasted.

The brothers in black are always amazed that he can find some weird things and make delicious food.

Cole himself was also confused, as if he knew these things innately.He once asked Maester Aemon suspiciously, but all he got was the maester shaking his head and smiling. He told Cole that there were many strange people and strange things in this world, and even the books in the Academy City couldn't record them all.

The night watchmen all know that Cole’s cooking is the best. So far, what the brothers in black look forward to most in a day is to drink his broth. If anyone is drawn to be on duty at meal time, he must Will be depressed all day.Because he probably could only eat a little rye bread and drink a bowl of 'cow urine'-like vegetable soup that day.

Because there are hundreds of people, Cole is only responsible for the most relaxing soup and cooking for Maester Aemon.

He and Clydas walked up the corridor, and Maester Aemon was taken care of by him, Clydas, and Chett. Clydas was the maester's assistant, Cole was in charge of the maester's food, and Chett was feeding the night watchman. Feed crows.

The bachelor is already very old, he always likes children very much, Cole was brought up by himself, in recent years his health has been deteriorating, even his eyes are gone, but his words are always full of wisdom, black clothes The brothers respected his guidance as much as Cole had enjoyed hearing his Targaryen tales as a boy.

Pushing open the door, Maester Aemon's keen hearing quickly recognized Cole's footsteps, and he asked in a soft voice, "Is it young Cole?"

"It's me, maester." Cole walked over and put the lunch box under the bed.

Maester Aemon reached over and stroked Cole's hair. "You don't even want to call me Grandpa Aemon now, it seems they taught you well."

In fact, it was a little dwarf who came to him yesterday to beg for soup and revealed something in the chat. Cole sympathized with that dwarf. Maybe there are physical defects, so the two of them feel sorry for each other. They said it was a 'little devil', but Kerr thought Tyrion Lannister was a very learned man, though not as much as Maester Aemon.

The little devil told him the eight dogmas of knights. It is true that Cole is a cook with knight dreams, although he can't even be a ranger.But he aspires to be an honorable knight, like Dawnblade and the 'fearless' Ser Barristan.

He should understand honor and disgrace. Maester Aemon is a highly respected existence among the Night Watchmen, so he should respectfully call him Maester.

In fact, when Cole called out the word 'maester', a hint of disappointment flashed across Maester Aemon's old face, but he was relieved quickly after thinking about it.

"Lekdars." Maester Aemon called softly, and then asked, "Are there any letters delivered today?"

Lekodas shook his head. "No letters from Chett."

Cole handed him a bowl of porridge, which Maester Aemon had no teeth to chew on.He took a spoon and drank it in small sips, unlike the brothers of the night watchman, no matter whether they were eating or drinking soup, they always opened their mouths to swallow.

Maybe age is the reason, but Cole is more willing to believe that Maester Aemon is an honorable and cultivated nobleman.

Because nobles are associated with knights, Cole has an inexplicable affection for nobles.Sometimes after listening to the dirty jokes from a night watchman during the day, he would also dream at night that he was somewhere as a knight and captured the heart of a beautiful noble lady.But the next morning, he had to wash his pants.

After dinner, Cole walked with Maester Aemon. The maester would talk a lot, but Cole's soul had already flown to the martial arts arena, and he would always be full of fascination when he heard the thumping of swords.

In fact, Cole is also very tall, but he is too thin and too weak.

The little dwarf Lannister also joked that he should give him some of his height.

A few new night watchmen just passed by them. They should be the ones who were scolded by the coach Sir Thorne just now. I heard that one of them is the illegitimate son of the Stark family, and his name is Jon Snow, but he is very Arrogant, Cole didn't dare to talk to him for a moment.

Cole saw that Jon Snow's face was a little gloomy, obviously not in a good mood, while the remaining two people were walking with a limp, obviously they should be injured.

Cole, who was lying in the tower room that night, was still thinking about the words Lannister told him. Every time he heard a piece of information about knights, he would record it in detail and engrave it on the wall of the tower defense.

And now the new scratches on the wall are: Humility, Honor, Sacrifice, Valor, Mercy, Spirit, Honesty, Justice

Tonight, the night sky of the entire continent of Westeros is covered with dense clouds. A shooting star seems to have completely split the chaos, revealing the bright moonlight and bright stars. Even the most accomplished stargazers in the Academy City can see it. What is the metaphor of not being able to see through this shooting star?
