Eagle of the Valley of Ice and Fire

Chapter 1 Attis Arryn, born of thunder

An air of decadence permeated the entire valley.

The Mountain Clan, which had been dormant for several years, had never set foot outside the Moon Mountains under the supervision of Jon Arryn, Warden of the East. But now, the valley transportation routes from the Eyrie to the Riverlands have appeared like wild weeds. Countless mountain savage attacks.

Many foreign female relatives who came to the valley to marry into the nobles within their jurisdiction and participate in tournaments and banquets were robbed. Many businesses with the Riverlands that relied heavily on land transportation were robbed and bankrupted.

Jon Arryn, who was wearing plate armor, was riding on a horse that was a specialty of the valley, and behind him were a hundred elite knights of the valley. The blue moon eagle flag of the Aylin family stood proudly in front of the team.

He looked helplessly at the Alpine clan warriors retreating into the valley. Months of vigilance and patrolling had no effect at all on these barbarians who were familiar with the terrain of the valley. During this period, many weapons and equipment were even given away for free. Gave it to the other party. And his second wife, who was also his cousin, was pregnant. Jon Arryn did not want to continue to waste time because of the wildlings, and he looked ahead seriously.

A row of steel spears stood in front of the horse. Jon Arryn looked at the dozens of mountain clans behind him, pointed his sword, "Cavalry array, charge!"

Thick smoke suddenly billowed from the mountain road. If someone were to pass by the mountain road at this time, the rumble caused by the horse's hooves hitting the ground would definitely resound through the ears, and the earth would seem to be shaking.

The Alpine clan showed no sign of weakness, bared their teeth and let out a roar of resentment. They used motley army-like equipment to form a fragile line of defense, staring intently at the charging valley cavalry.

The steel spear was handed out, blood stained the ground, and the flesh and blood of the Alpine clan warriors flew everywhere. The outcome of the war was already destined at the moment of contact.

The Duke of the Valley scanned the battlefield, turned his horse's head, and galloped towards the highest peak of the Mingyue Mountains - the Giant's Spear. The cavalry in the valley once again formed several small teams and slowly advanced to both sides of the mountain road. They needed to continue patrolling.

When the residents of the valley at the foot of the mountain looked up at the giant spear that shot straight into the sky, they would habitually hear the roar of an eagle in their minds. They seemed to subconsciously regard the giant spear in the distance as the habitat of the giant eagle and the lucky place of the Seven Gods. . The majestic Eagle's Nest City sits across the Giant's Spear and at the top of the Moon Mountains.

Every proud knight of the valley must bring the experience of standing on the tallest tower in the Eyrie City, the Maiden's Tower, overlooking the entire Arryn Valley when bragging in their tavern. Therefore, whenever you enter a tavern in the long and narrow Arryn Valley, The number of people you meet who have the same experience can exceed five palms. Maybe the number of valley people you meet while walking around the canyon is limited to this number.

It always rains under the Eagle's Nest City, but it rarely seems to affect the castle. The airflow from the Narrow Sea moves westward along the Arryn Valley, and it always rains along the way when it encounters the obstruction of the Bright Moon Mountains. This is for the valley people who live in the long summer. This is common weather, but today is an exception.

The strong wind whipped against the walls of the Eagle's Nest City wantonly, the pendulum of the Crescent Hall swayed like a drunkard, and the rain even flooded the hall where guests stayed. "Oh no, it's all water here!" A roar like a bell echoed through the entire Crescent Hall, as loud as the man himself. A man wrapped in a huge raincoat at the door of the hall walked in and looked at the rain-covered floor in despair.

He walked to the table closest to him, took out a few coins, and smashed them on the white slate table as if to vent his annoyance. "Give me the wine, it's you!" His eyes were as wide as copper bells, and he pointed directly to the side. A busy waiter.

After hearing this, the waiter hurriedly put down the bowl of water in his hand and ran to the back hall. Before running, the man was taking off his raincoat. The black crowned stag exposed under the clothes came into his eyes. He suddenly realized that he had encountered is a big shot.

"Don't scare him, Robert." The companion who had been silent next to the man finally spoke and looked at Robert beside him with a serious expression.

Robert showed his neatly trimmed face, raised his eyebrows and grinned, "Oh, the ruthless Lord Eddard Stark, the wolf of the north, finally spoke on this journey, hahahahahaha!"

The hearty laughter instantly attracted all the tourists in Crescent Hall. Many people were worried about when the rainy day would end. They naturally felt angry when they heard the noise, but when they looked towards the source of the sound and saw who it was, they were instantly discouraged.

Eddard felt the eyes around him, pursed his lips unnaturally, frowned and whispered to Robert, "Pay attention to your etiquette, Robert, this is where Lord Arryn entertains distinguished guests."

Robert looked around pretendingly, "If Storm's End uses this pitiful place as a place to entertain guests, I'm afraid outsiders will think that Baratheon owes the Iron Bank millions of gold dragons. Hahaha." He leaned his head closer. Ed laughed in a low voice.

Ed reluctantly took the wine brought by the waiter and thanked him softly. Looking at Robert drinking happily, he still couldn't help but worry: "I heard the maester said Lady Arryn should give birth today, given the weather."

Before he finished speaking, a beam of lightning struck the bottom of the canyon almost close to the giant's gun. The clouds were suddenly disturbed by thunder in mid-air, and it seemed that the entire sky in the valley was shaking.

Ed's expression was stunned for a moment, while Robert, who had just closed his eyes and drank heavily, felt a blue light flash in the darkness and was about to ask.

At this time, "Boom!" The thunder that resounded throughout the valley was heard as the Giant's Spear soared in mid-air, frightening the seven monks in the hall to quickly close their eyes and pray. The young waiter couldn't resist the temptation of this spectacle and threw it away. He slipped to the window and looked around, and all the tourists marveled at the wonder they had just encountered.

Only Robert was at a loss. He pulled Eddard and wanted to ask more questions, but Eddard just pointed at the clouds exploded by thunder in the distance. A ray of sunlight shot towards the Eagle's Nest City from the cracks in the clouds, stretching endlessly. The heavy rain also gradually subsided as the sunshine gradually came in.

In the moon tower in the distance, a baby's cry entered everyone's ears like a spring song from a bard. The bachelor held the baby and walked to the old Duke, "It's a boy, sir."

Jon Arryn carefully took the baby from the maester's arms, with tears in his eyes. The smile could no longer be hidden under the disguise of the Duke, and it was all piled on Jon's face.

He excitedly looked at Mrs. Aylin, his wife, and his cousin who was lying on the delivery bed with weak breathing, "Luyunna, we have a son." At this time, Mrs. Ayling could only barely respond to him. A hint of a smile.

The maids came in and out, and dozens of ravens were released from their nests by the maester, telling the princes of the valley and the Seven Kingdoms: Lord Jon Arryn, Duke of the Eyrie, Guardian of the Gorge, and Warden of the East, had a new son, and he would Heir to the valley.

The sun completely filled the sky over the Moon Mountains. Jon's two adopted sons, Robert Baratheon from the Stormlands and Eddard Stark from the North, rushed to the lobby of the Eyrie City and could faintly hear Alyssa's voice. The sound of the Tears Falls and the gradual roar of eagles in the distance are the only remaining natural sounds of the valley.

"Jon, where did you hide me and Ned's brother?" Robert raised his head and asked Jon Arryn as soon as he stepped into the hall. Then he and Ed saluted the old Duke, "Your brother is crying and making a fuss in the arms of the maid." Lord Aylin was obviously very happy, and the corners of his mouth kept rising when he mentioned his son.

"My lord, you finally have a child, hahahaha!" Robert's inappropriate laughter appeared again. Eddard saw Jon's gradually darkening face and quickly took over the conversation, "From now on, the valley has its own young master. Congratulations, sir." ." After hearing this, Jon relaxed his expression.

"Okay, when the customs tax collection in Seagull Town is over, I will hold a huge tournament in the valley to celebrate the naming of my son. At that time, the royal family and nobles will be invited. Baratheon and the Stark family will be welcomed by you. !" The old Duke made a rare move and waved his fist fiercely.

"Not only these, but free riders from all walks of life, bards, mercenaries from Slaver's Bay, magicians, Red Saints from Meereen, theater troupes from Braavos, and prostitutes from Lys all have to be invited here, hahaha Let’s celebrate the naming of my younger brother together!” Robert thought thoughtfully, his eyes gradually brightening, “I just hope that this new eagle in Arryn Valley won’t be like my younger brother, damn the Seven Gods!”

Ed couldn't bear to listen any more and directly advised the old Duke, "Robert's plan costs too much and is definitely not advisable."

Before Jon could say anything, Robert angrily said to Eddard: "Seven hells! Ned, this is a great joy. Can you bear to see our beloved Lord Arryn's eldest son on his name day?" Have you ever seen such a shabby tourney? What’s the cost? Get the golden dragon from Seagull Town and dig out some of the damn Lannister mines. At worst, just invite some officials from the Iron Bank to serve them well. If you can borrow them, How much is it?" Just as Ed was about to retort, Robert continued his conversation, "Not to mention that the Baratheon and Stark families don't have any spare money, hahahaha."

These words directly angered the old Duke, "That's enough Robert, can you keep doing this for the rest of your life!" Seeing the old Duke's serious expression, Robert felt very bored, so he closed his mouth.

Seeing that Robert was silent, Ed asked, "My lord, has the young master's name been decided yet?".

The old Duke looked at Ed with a smile, "I plan to name him on the day of the tourney. As for the name," the old Duke walked down the high seat of the hall. The throne of the King of the Valley carved from weirwood was revealed behind him. The old Duke looked at Looking toward the blue sky outside the long and narrow arched window, a sound of eagle whistles came from the distance, "I already have the answer in my heart." The old Duke said slowly.

Born from thunder, the Eagle Knight of the Arryn family, Attis Arryn. The old Duke thought to himself. He already seemed to see the scene where his son's name was announced on the high platform of the tourney in the Gate of the Moon and everyone cheered.

Attis Allin is the name of the founder of the Allin family.
