Eddard

Inside his solar, the lord of the north was in completely silence lost in thoughts, it was been six years since the siege of Pyke, even the thought of those days brought a frown to his face, the north suffered several losses that year.

As if through a curse, the entire Ryswell family died under mysterious circ.u.mstances, leaving two seas without lords, later during the siege, several boats carrying northmen were lost, in a storm, lord Ludd Whitehill along two of his sons Torrhen and Gryff Whitehill died in that day, the Boltons lost half of their bannermen , Lord Karstark lost 1/4 of his man and the house of Manderly lost several boats that day.

During the storm he only could play for the old gods, not only for himself and the northmen but for Brennan who was in a ship that day too. What he was thinking when he allowed him to join, was a question he could never answer.

Right before joining with Robert's fleet, they suffered an attack, boats with men of the houses Drumm and Wynch, attacked them. They won the fight but they lost two others sh.i.p.s and Jorah Mormont died by the hands of lord Wynch, who later died by Eddard's hands, Lord Drumm attack the boat that Brennan was and his son fought with lord Drumm, and killed the man claiming red rain as his second Valyrian steel sword.

During the siege Brennan showed bravery and an amazing skill using two swords, and in the end of the siege, Robert made him a knight.

Balon Greyjoy surrendered after seeing how his rebellion failed, Robert accepted it and his son Theon was made a hostage under the guard of Eddard.

After the siege, all that Eddard wanted was to go home, but by insistence of both Robert and Brennan he travelled to Lannisport for a tourney. Against Eddard's will, Brennan joined the tourney in all three events.

And against all odds he won all three, the archery seemed easy to him and the victory was against a bannerman of the Tyrells, the melee was were Brennan showed all his skill defeating men three or four times his age with two times his height.

When Brennan faced the mountain in the finals, Eddard's hearth almost stopped, however Brennan proved himself and easily evade all attack and used an opening to cut the mountain's hand and then his head off.

Twin Lannister, very displeased after this.

After the melee, the joust was a small relief, Brennan won all rounds easily, until the final round against Jaime Lannister, they broke eight lances, but in the ninth Jaime Lannister fell from his horse.

By the smile of Brennan, Eddard knew that the sell was not against his will, so he remained in silence, the sword belonged to Brennan so was his choice to keep or sell it.

The travel back was complicated by the several c.h.e.s.ts full of coins that Brennan brought back, during all travel he never leaved the c.h.e.s.ts out his sight and always smiled while he played with a coin.

Eddard, never knew were all this love for gold came, but he didn't think too much about it, thinking it was just a kid thing.

By all his skills and appearance, Brennan still only had 9 name-day, when they arrived in Winterfell, his lady wife reminded this fact during weeks while shouting at him.

The first thing Brennan did with his money was to rebuild the towers of Winterfell, while he argued against it, he was happy that Brennan was not spending it something futile and used his money in useful things.

Around three years later, Brennan started to have lessons with the Blacksmith of the castle, much to Catelyn dislike, who always argued how a noble should not do this kind of work. In the end of this same year, Brennan forged very superior swords and armors, both Robb and Jon, received beautiful steel swords with decorated hilts.

At his 12 name-days, Brennan started to travelling between Winterfell and Barrowton, to started his duty as the new lord.

Again, he and Catelyn argued, to her Brennan was too young to leave, they argued a week until Brennan take the decision to go that quickly put an end to the arguing.

During the next three years Brennan was very occupied, he started to rebuild the moat, started several large constructions in his lands and traveled for all Westeros, participating in several tourneys.

If not, an earth controlling sorcerer was enough protection against almost any group.

In all his life, magic was not a thing he ever imagined to see, learning that one of his sons was had it was a shocking surprise. Years ago, Brennan taught him about magic and even showed him some of his skills.

At first, he was shocked but with due time he came to get used to it.

The only ones that knew it for sure, were Eddard, Jon, Robb and Rodrick Cassel, not even his wife knew for sure, even though she had her suspicions. By now most people know or suspected of Brennan skills, this tender to happens when three bears join a siege with a kid in their backs.

He had met Guo li one year ago, the earthbender as he called himself was introduced by Brennan, how the two met, he never really knew, but he came to acknowledge the man skills. At first, he was skeptical, but after the man rebuild an entire tower in one night, he came to believe.

By fortune, the man always proved himself trustworthy, and Brennan spoked for the man's loyalty, so Eddard just let things follow their course.

Brennan

Time passed fast in Brennan's opinion, from Pyke to today a lot of things happened, going to Pyke proved to be one of his best ideas, even though he had to use magic to make his father agree, he had no regrets of it.

With this he weakened even more the Bolton, the only reason that Brennan didn't kill them yet was because they still had their uses, if he killed Roose Bolton, his wife Bethany Bolton, would inherit his position, by blood she had the right to inherit both Barrowton and the hills, since she was the last Ryswell alive.

Because of his actions she was denied, and Brennan and Jon would assume as lords, if something like this happened again, this would bring discontent and distrust to the vassals, who would fear the lord taking their lands and giving to his sons, so it was a big no.

If he Killed the woman, he would have to kill his son too, since he already decided to not have any enemy in the north, without a lord there would be some fight to decide who would rule the land and without a lord to command and control the land, bandit and raiders from Skargos would appear faster than he could say Westeros.

From what he remembered from the remake tv series, the Umbers, the Karstarks and the Boltons, were the three houses that would be the first line of protection against a Skargos attack.

If he shacked the boat to much, this fragile balance would break, and had bad consequences for the future.

So, by now they were needed, at least until he finds someone loyal to assume the place.

Besides the storm, the attack of the lords Wynch and Drumm were also his doing, he used magic trough crows to charm the lords to send most of their men to Pyke and take only a few to attack the north boats.

Magic was indeed a useful tool, the death of Jorah Mormont, also was something planned, in future this man, not only would ashamed himself, but also the Mormont house and the north, later he would be the right arm of one of the greatest dangers to world, the mad queen.

After the battle he proved himself to the men of the north and gained the sword red rain that was also an important part of his plans.

And after it his plans went forward, he gained a knighthood, and even that the title had no real value to him it had it uses, by his insistence he could participate of the tourney in lannisport, were he joined in all three events, the archery, the melee and the joust.

With the Hawkeye archery skills, the archery was just to easy, the melee was a little more complicated, he couldn't show his true strength so he had to win counting with finesse and skill.

Fighting with the mountain was an unfortunate event, and the only way to win was killing the mad man, he used his superior swordsmanship, and used a very discrete spell to gain the upper hand and finish the man.

This action brought him dissatisfaction with Twin Lannister, but also brought some good will with Dorne.

To "fix up" things he offered to sell red rain to twin, with a bit of negotiation and a small use of the witcher magic, the sword was sold for 2 million golden dragons. Poor Twin if it wasn't for the fact that the two were alone, Brennan could not use magic to make him pay such price.

This was one advantages of being underestimated, for being a child.

The joust, was luck bet, Geralt was not a knight and had no experience in jousts, but he has a good rider. Thanks to Geralt superhuman strength and durability, he broke 8 lances with Jaime Lannister, in the 9 he quickly warged in Jaime's horse and made him fell.

The prizes were, 50.000 for archery and melee, and 100.000 for the joust, totalizing 200.000 golden dragons.

With pockets full, the first thing he did was spent 500 thousand dragons to repair all towers and pay for more bowmen, with all this money he could put at least 20 men in each tower and still had some money left, this would be a huge advantage in the future. His father at first was against it, but he set foot and insisted in it.

He do loved her, but he had no interest in her gods or her point of view, each Saturday she tried to make him go play in the sept and every time he refused it, one time she tried to drag him to play and in a moment of childish rage he broke her hand, by accident.

He felt bad about the incident, and things between them became a little awkward.

Besides the smithing skills, from Leo Valdez skill pack, he received others three skills, technokinesis (Medium), that gave Brennan amazing mechanical abilities, genius level Intellect (High) that boosted his mental capacities and Pyrokinesis (High) that gave him controls of flames, control the heat of the fire and the so needed and d.e.s.i.r.ed fire immunity.

He didn't remember of Hephaestus kids having this power, but he loved it anyway, in this world being immune to fire was a highly needed skill, especially if in the future two mad queens, one with wildfire and others with dragons, were to be your enemies.

Unfortunately, it was not a unit or a complete abilities pack, Brennan really wanted to see all the extend of Leo Valdez skills.

In his twelve name days, he opened himself to his father and told his some of his secrets, he told he about magic, but hided most of his skills, the fact was it became impossible to he to do all things he planned alone, unlike some fanfictions that he read back in earth, unless he had some highly powerful and versatile magic skills it was impossible to do everything alone.

There were lords to convince and please everywhere, difficulties with terrain, locomotion and serious lack of man power, he was a kid, no matter how skilled he was, most people did not take his words much serious, and he had overprotective mother who made a lot of things harder.

Showing a little magic was easy, as the man already knew a bit, after all you can't keep 5 dangerous "beasts" obedient, without years of training or being a warg, thanks to the old gods wargs in general were highly respected and feared by their believers.

He also showed a bit of druidic magic making plants grow faster, then he presented Guo Li as a earthsinger or earthbender from Yi Ti, his backstory, was that he was a exiled small noble that came to Westeros looking for work after losing everything in a bandits raid, and due to similar "magic" he came into Brennan's service to teach him and be a bodyguard, thanks to Guo Li's good manners, capacity of speaking in Yi Tysh, and knowing how to read and write, Lord Stark believed in the story.

With his own skills, a powerful bodyguard and a small group of soldiers he could move freely in the continent, to raise his funds he participated in all tourneys he could across westeros. Every time he won and gained a lot money and fame.

The smallfolk just love stories and songs about young knights.

During his travels, he collected any information and valuable thing he could, usually without paying for them, he got the finest wines from reach to dorne, kilometers of the best silks from essos, some tons of varied grains, fruits and seeds and some glass.

What he couldn't store in his spatial ring, he stored in his new acquired bottomless bag, a magic leather bag capable of storing anything no matter the size and had never get full.

Most of my attention were focused in gold, silver, and construction materials like iron and steel ingots and stone, thing like statues, laces and tapestries I leaved behind, they were hard to sell, easily recognizable and even if he sold them it had a chance that it could be tracked back to him.

Even if he stole lots of things, of lords, nobles and merchants he had a strict code, don't take from the poor, only take what was not easily noted, and if someone was blamed in his place try to help, and if not possible compensate the family.

The first time he thought these rules he started to think in opening a thieves guild.

After some steals, people started to call him the gray ghost, and Brennan kind liked the nickname.

After a travel through the seven kingdoms he got enough materials to build three keeps and one small fortress, but his greatest prizes were in kings landing, the tourney was a perfect excuse to visit the town, that was full of visiting noble and smallfolks.

The prizes were the bests of all westeros, king Robert was known by his generous prizes and for his Whoremonger ways. Before the tourney he made a full visit to almost every corner of the city.

His real prize, wildfire, Brennan walked up and down for all kings landing collecting this material, and not counting with the jars beneath the great sept, he found roughly 700 jars of the substance.

even though the substance was volatile, it would be a useful tool in the future either by using against men or against the undead. He also paid a quick visit to the alchemist's guild, and made a copy of the substance recipe, for future uses.

After it he acted like most of the other nobles and "enjoyed" the town, as son of his best friend Robert insisted in him staying at the red keep, with him and his "family". He couldn't recuse of course.

Robert was fun to have around, Cersei was smug and snob, she did not deign to speak to him unless it was to mock with the subtlety of a lame horse. Robert almost hit her, but Brennan who did find it funny laughed, distracting the man.

When you did have power to break someone neck's as a toothpick, their snugness was like seeing a cat yelling to a tiger.

The royal kids were silent most part of the time, and even the prince didn't talk too much, be either by their young age or fear of Robert, Brennan didn't care as long he kept his mouth shut.

After some drinks he let "slip" that he was a jeweler, Cersei then mocked and asked if he fez anything worth of attention, in response he took out from a bag a gift he had prepared before.

A perfect imitation of a Farbege egg made by him, the egg had the same dimensions of an ostrich egg, it was made of ivory covered by a layer of polished gold, X shaped lines made of silver covered the egg in a diamond pattern, in the middle of the "Xs" small diamond, in the center of the egg, a finely detailed black stag made of polished obsidian with a crown of gold, with a tiny sapphire in the eye, and the tong was made of ruby, below the stag, emeralds made the Baratheon house words, Ours is the Fury.

As soon as he showed the gift all place was silenced, with everyone admiring his work, the silence was broken by Robert praised louder his skills, and everyone else started to talk about the gift, even the queen was forced to praise his work.

Robert liked so much the gift that he ordered Brennan to choose anything he wanted, as long it was in his power, and Brennan asked for the Dragonbones, held once in the keep. When Robert asked why he wanted them, Brennan responded that he wanted to make jewels and bows out of them.

This answer seemed to satisfy the man who ordered gave him permission to take all that he could carry.

A tourney later he leaved, king's landing, with wagon full of coin and dragonbones, the good lords of the reach payed for all the transportation fee, Robert was so happy that he cleaned all dragonbones in the keep, that he made another tourney to celebrate.

The years passed with him making smalls changes here and there, he build two new glass gardens in Winterfell, the cost was astronomic but with Brennan gaining tourney in every place it was easily affordable, the second glass garden was made with the only purpose of planting fruits to be used to make wine and some liquors.

To take care of the production and quality he "contracted" Vikos and Milos Hark, two wine makers from essos, who secretly were sons of the god of wine Dionisius.

Their wine started to sell like hot bread to a starving people, the wine had a richer taste, was softer, and leaved a sweet taste in the mouth, the liquors were stored in the castle or sold to nobles in the north, were it became popular very fast.

In his twelve years or names-days, he began commanding Barrowton at his insistence, besides some troublemakers here and there, things were easy. Being in charge of the city he gained a lot more freedom.

Even through Brennan had lots of money, he couldn't spend to much of it in Winterfell, his father never cared about his money but always cared in where he spent it and how much he spent.

He could use money in some rows an over a few days or months, but he never could use to much, using 1000 or 10 thousand coins sometimes was possible but if he used to much would be difficult to explain where he used it.

Having money and couldn't use it, was a torturing situation.

Out of Winterfell, he began using large amounts of coins, into the gacha, in only five days he used around five hundred thousand coins, he got some good stuff, some useful stuff and some useless stuff.

His best rows came from the specified rows, that costed 10 times more by each specification.

Among his gains were, a level 12 and a level 20 wizards, a level 20 Archdruid, a level 20 cleric, three level 10 fighters, a level 19 paladin, a pack of mammoths, a squad of sons of Apollo, some diversified demigods, some duplicating cards, and some more.

The wizards, the cleric, the fighters and the paladin, all came from Dungeons and Dragons world, to gain then he had to specify the world (Dungeons and Dragons) the type (unit) and use the better row option to improve the rank of the earnings, he wanted, a ten times row under these conditions costed 1 million coins.

Thanks gods he acc.u.mulated enough money.

He specified them for three reasons, he wanted a more diversified spell options, almost any unit from this world would probably have some sort of useful skill, and he needed powerful or skilled allies, and with enough money he could get almost anything from gacha.

To improve his skills, Brennan absorbed the cleric and the level 20 wizard, and he received tons of knowledge and skills, he thought him also absorbing the druid and the paladin, but abandoned this idea, now he needed allies, and he would not gain almost anything more that he already had.

Counting with his new gains and the rest of his fortunes he started massive constructions in all lands under his command, and it was a very large piece of land, he had all the barrowlands and a good piece of the neck under his command, he was the lord with the largest territory in the north.

His biggest project was a massive green house, first he started the constructions of walls of ten meters high and five meters wide in an area of two and a half square kilometers, it was a logistic nightmare to build.

He used literally all his resources in that, he equipped Guo li, the druid Mark Vars, and the wizard Will Foringer, with items like the bottomless bag to go around all westeros collecting materials while he started to buy more of them.

Even with them gathering materials day and night without paying, he still had to spent a lot of coin in materials.

To build the walls he had another problem, to help it, he used one of his dangerous gains, the terminators.

A terminator was a machine from a Serie of novels and movies, they were covered in living tissue and looked as humans, they were made for infiltration and assassination, and even despite being machines, they could easily live among humans without being discovered, some of them could even mimicry human emotions.

He gained a pack of them, but didn't have any good reason to summon them, even despite being classified as item, they had the ability to act independent and take their own decisions, the pack contained three different models, a T-850, a T-888 and a T-900.

The T-850, was an upgraded version of the T-800 from terminator 2, it had a better endoskeleton, that were tougher and more resilient than previous versions, they had powerful motors and hydraulic system, making them faster and stronger than the T-800. They had richness of information, about advanced military training, chemistry, math, arithmetic, science, medical skills, tactical and analytical abilities, more than 1000 different emotional elements that modify human behavior, basic psychology, zoological information on all recorded species of animal, , they could evaluate data and analyze it can make predictive forecasts to which it can assign probability values.

The T-888 or T triple X, was the peak version of T-800 terminators, they were even stronger, faster, and more resilient to damage than previous versions, they were able to run and catch fleeing vehicles with relative ease. They were notably light compared to previous models, and could be built in different shapes, from a stocky body builder to the petite schoolgirl. They were better infiltrator possessing detailed files on human behavior and psychology, granting them advanced interpersonal relations programming and were anatomically correct and capable of s.e.x.u.a.l activity, being capable of maintaining a marriage for prolonged time.

The T-900, was the best infiltrator surpassing even upgraded version like the T-1000, they had lower combat prowess but still could fight a T-888 with winning chances. Because of the unique design they could be inputted with the memory of its human replacement for the purpose of "Sleeper infiltration" and in some cases, a T-900 may even believe itself is a human. They could mimicry emotion and even fake tears, they were capable of feeling her environment to the same degree as humans, with the exception of pain and eat, making then some of the better infiltrators. A curiosity of this model, was that all of them were modeled after women.

Brennan didn't need any information to know all this about those machines, in earth he was a massive fan of the terminator series, and processed huge knowledge from the universe, build after hours reading novels and watching movies.

While the tree machines would be helpful, only three of them would be too little, so used a duplicating card, this card permitted to duplicate anything gained from gacha of it level and value, so a R rank x 3 duplicating card, could duplicate a R rank or lower, prize three times, for example if he used a SR x 4 duplicating card on a Geralt of Rivia unit, he could summon four equal Geralts.

The pack with all terminators was rank R, and Brennan used a x 10 duplicating card, gaining a total of 30 machines for him. After using the duplicating card, he was worried about having 10 of the three same "person", what would be impossible to use together, having 2,3 or even 4 or 5 could be explained but ten, and with three times was impossible.

Luckily his worries were for nothing and each terminator had their own appearance.

With tons of magic, hard work, and payed employees, he built the walls in three months, by that time most of the north knew about it, various lords laughed of him, even his father came personally to ask an explanation.

After the wall were made he with the druid and the earthbender started to prepare the land, while Guo li removed rocks and softened the land, he and Mark Vars used spells to enrich the land, to enrich the land for 1 year it took it was necessary to cast the spell for 8 hours, to make it permanent, it was necessary to cast the same spell all days during a year, thanks gods the druid could take care of it.

The glass was a relatively small problem by that time, he bought what he could and the rest he made with magic or the terminators made using their knowledge. It took only one and half month to cover the entire area with a massive greenhouse with 5 meters tall glass ceiling, supported by wood and bronze structures. It was a lot cheaper than he thought.

When it was fully finished, he named it, the grain's plain.

To use better the terminators he divided them, all ten T-850 and 5 of the T-888, would stay with the druid and the wizard helping them to plant and protect the place, 3 T-888 would be disguised as glassmakers from Myr and open a shop in the town, the other two would be a medic and a blacksmith at him service.

5 of the T-900 would be servants in the castle, one became a "alchemist", one was made a librarian and the other three would be p.r.o.s.t.i.t.u.t.es/spies and were sent to the westerlands, the crownlands and the reach, with some knowledge of this world and a list with some people of interest.

For the rest of that year he made travel between barrowton and Winterfell, every week. While he was into it, he conjured the Mighty Fortress spell. This spell was a high level one, and used a diamond that need to worth at least 500 dragons, to make a fortress of stone appear.

This spell was casted adjacent to the grain's plain walls.

The spell need to be recasted every seven days during a week to make the fortress permanent otherwise it would crumble into dust after some time, one diamond of 500 dragon every week for year costed him, 26,530 dragon to build, considering the cost of materials, transportation, works and other expenses, he saved a huge amount.

The fortress has four turrets with square bases, each one 20 feet on a side and 30 feet tall, with one turret on each corner. The turrets are connected to each other by stone walls that are each 80 feet long, creating an enclosed area. Each wall had 1 foot thick that was reinforced by other three layers of stone and is composed of panels that are 10 feet wide and 20 feet tall. two stone doors in the fortress's northern outer wall prevented an easy invasion by making the invaders have to break two doors instead of one, the doors were reinforced with layer of bronze.

A small keep stands inside the enclosed area. The keep had an area of 20 square meter, and it has three floors with 10-foot-high ceilings. The two first floors were divided into eight rooms, the last floor had two 5 square meter rooms and one 10 square meters solar. The floors of the keep are connected by stone staircases, its walls are 6 inches thick, and the rooms had wood doors. The keep is furnished and decorated with stark banners and wood furnishing, and contained sufficient food to serve a nine-course banquet for up to 100 people each day.

The Furnishings, food, and other objects created by the spell would crumble to dust if removed from the fortress.

To improve the fortress an armory was made in the back, a storage room in the west side, and a kitchen in the east.

Under the keep, there were four floors with 17 feet tall and 25 square meters, the first floor was a nursery, the two next underground floors were rooms and the last was a cellar.

He called the place the Grains Keep.

At full capacity the keep could have a garrison of 200 men, counting with the 800 men that he would put in the grain's plain, it would have a 1000 men garrison.

With 15 machines working day and night, in a magic enriched land, with a druid and a wizard to help them with magic, in six months, he got 900 tons of wheat in 1,5 square km, and more 400 tons of beet and 400 tons of millet.

Never in the story of the north this amount of food was produced.

To sell them quickly he sent several caravans to all castles, keeps and villages in the north and sold them at half of the price. From the lords to the smallfolk, all went crazy with these prices and bought like mad men.

When the lords and the smallfolk filled their stocks, he sent for free tons of food to the wall, to help them.

It was funny to see his father face when he filled all stocks in the Winterfell and give bags of food for the people of winter town. What was not sold was stored in the bottomless bag to preserve them.

That year during the reunion with the lords, he received praises from everyone, using that occasion Brennan asked for permission of the lord to make roads to their castles, and every single one agreed, even the Bolton.

After that Eddard, gave permission to Brennan to what he wished since it was a within reason of course. The next week he started hiring people and started to reform the barrowton, from upside down.

To bring more workers to the north he offered a good payment and three meals a day.

The next two years were a full of plans and work, first he started a massive recruitment, he accepted men and women, with twelve or more years, he used the recruitment as excurse to summon units, then he started to retrain all the barrowton soldiers.

After several fights in tourneys and fighting bandits, he was well aware of a simple fact, the westeros swordplay s.u.c.k.e.d, all they knew was, hacking, slashing, blocking and parrying, they had no stile or real finesse in it.

That's why knight like ser Jaime and ser Barristan, who had talent and experience, were considered the best of the realm, if Barristan or Jaime were put against an ancient rome soldier or a veteran medieval knight from earth more likely they would lose easily.

Using it, he summoned Reyna Avila Ramírez, a roman demigod daughter of the war godness Bellona, praetor of the roman training ground, camp Jupiter. She substituted the former master-of-arms, and was made a knight by Brennan.

At first lot people doubted his decision, but she quickly showed his skill and started to put the soldiers in shape. To spread his name as the first woman knight, they traveled to participate of tourneys in Dorne and Kings landing.

In Dorne she won the three events, and faced prince Oberyn Martell and won, gaining her a little of fame, in the Kings landing she proved herself as true knight, not only by winning all events but by defeating both Barristan Selmy and Jaime Lannister, both in the melee and in the joust.

After those events she became directly responsible by five hundred man, at their maximum capacity, barrowton could raise 2000 to 5000 men, in peace times like today all garrison they had was 2000 men, so commanding one quarter of these soldiers said enough of her skills.

Under Reyna, were five centurions, two sons of mars, a daughter of Mercury, one legacy of Apollo and a legacy of Jupiter, all of them fully trained legionnaires of camp Jupiter. Under these centurion 10 sergeants each responsible for ten men, chosen among the soldiers.

This made the training soldiers easier, and the command chain became more stable, now if one leader died in combat, others could keep the lines in formation and give orders.

A group of five hundred men were bowmen under two legacies of Apollo, other five hundred were under a son of Ares, and the rest of the soldiers were trained by the three level ten fighters, as light cavalry unit.

During these years Brennan's plans in Essos started to giving results. Two years ago, he gained three especial people from the gacha, professor James Moriarty, from Sherlock Holmes movies, Damien Darhk from arrowverse series and Maven Black-Briar, an influent busyness woman from the elder scrolls game Skyrim.

That time he had a duplication card, and used it in Damien Darhk, to make a copy of him and renamed him Damian, Damien stayed with Brennan as a counselor, and Damian, was sent to Winterfell to become Counselor of Jon.

Both they, had extensive politic, tactic and scientific knowledge, and as former assassins of the league, they were master assassins, and master in hand-to-hand, swordsman and archery, and even without magic they had extensive knowledge in it.

After making several plans for the future, Brennan summoned Moriarty and Black-Briar, and send them to Essos, Moriarty was sent to Pentos, and Black-Briar was sent to Bravos, each one received one demigod and one Witcher bodyguards each, along with a large sum of money and some commodities.

Brennan expended a good amount of money to protect and prepare them. To guarantee that they won't be linked to him he summoned they in secret in the westerlands, a week before the boat leave to essos.

Both they had the mission of infiltrate, get power and start to buy the maximum unsullied they could.

Brennan didn't favored slavery, but free laborers, and obedient soldier were a tool that he couldn't waste.

Two years ago they went to essos, and now the results were visible, Maven started as a silk and wine merchant, after some months she married a rich and influent merchant, after two months the merchant died and she assumed everything he possessed, gaining lands and a good amount of wealthy, that she used to buy a full group of five thousand unsullied, gaining more power and influence in the process, and less than a year she obtained a sit in the iron bank by unknown means.

Now she was famous for sealing, mead with his own brand, spices and silks, she owned a fairly good amount of land and slaves, and now a total amount of ten thousand unsullied, used by her as bodyguards and security.

Moriarty was ten times more subtile, he started as a merchant of sugar, due the rarity and value of his merchandise he quickly gained a lot of money, he started slow, first he bought sh.i.p.s and started a small bushiness buying beet sugar from the north and them selling in Essos.

he started to buy and sell, information and make contacts in different cities, soon he became a influential merchant with lands in his name and commanding a fleet of two hundred sh.i.p.s, in the surface he had only a small group of a thousand unsullied as bodyguards, in secret he gathered around fifteen thousand under his command, acting as sellswords company .

These two bought all unsullied available, the plan was to buy as much as they could and before the dragon queen could do his move, they would do the same thing she would do before her. She would have not soldiers to her plans and the north would have valuable soldiers to use in future.

To sell that huge amounts of sugar, Brennan built two ports in his lands, one in saltspear and another near Moat Cailyn.

Due to rarity and value of sugar, even with him hiring the Manderly fleet, the profit was thousands of dragons per ship, half pound of good quality sugar costed 5 dragon and the inferior quality sugar costed 1 dragon.

Thanks to the grains plain, producing tons of food, he could sell food to the whole north and even so tons of food remained, the grains were used to make moonshine and vodka and beet was used purely to make sugar.

Due the strong flavors and small price the smallfolk loved both drinks, and the sells were very good during all the year.

All extra money, gave Brennan the capacity to make almost every thing he wanted in his territory, first he destroyed and rebuild the entire Moat Cailyn, to bring more works that still are low in north he offered to pay two times the normal.

Fortunately, this plan worked and he gained a massive flux of new workers, using them he rebuilt all Moat three times bigger than before, to make a powerful fortress he used blueprints made by one T-888 that analyzed the ruins and the terrains.

The new moat was made in a form that he maximized and improved the use of the terrain, the ruins, with broken towers and destroyed walls, gave place to a massive stone keep, the wall were made in a form that didn't changed the terrains but guaranteed a high protection and sturdiness, the twenty towers were now fifty towers guarded by archers and scorpions.

Following the design of Winterfell, a city was built near and was called moat town, however unlike Winterfell, if an attack came from the south, the only way to get to town was taking the fortress before, the same could not be said from attack from the north.

In these two years the grains plain, became the most important place in the north, 90 percent of the north food came from there, and the others 10 percent, were meat and fruits from others kingdoms.

To protect the place, he used an enormous sum of money in the gacha to get soldier he could trust, now the place was heavily guarded by a permanent garrison of thousand soldiers, half garrison consisted in two hundred of them were legacies of Apollo and other one hundred were his kids, the others two hundred were highly trained Bowmen.

The other half were two hundred were knights and three hundred soldiers.

All them came from packs of the gacha, and multiplied using duplication card, that became one of the most valious prize.

To command the place, he put Horace Altman, character of books series Ranger's Apprentice, he was a trained knight captain, and a skilled swordsman and tactician.

Near the Grains keep, he built another keep, called the twin bows keep, he created it to serve as headquarters and training field for rangers.

The rangers that helped protect the place came from two different books, one squad came from the Ranger's Apprentice series, like Horace, and the other came from the Lord of the rings series.

Both of them shared several similarities, both were skilled archers, used longbows and camouflage cloaks, the only real difference was that Lord of The Rings ranges used longsword while the Ranger's Apprentice series preferred using knifes.

They were the only one's permission to leave the Grains keep at will, they wandered for the Brennan' lands, with four main duties, intelligence gathering inside and outside the north, recruit new rangers, keep strange people away from the Grains Keep and dealing thieves and spies.

They were divided in two groups one to act inside north and one to act outside the north, the first group was commanded by Aradan, and the second group was commanded by Halt O'Carrick.

Even through they were different groups their similarities, helped the two groups to easily act together.

Inside the Grains keep, the terminators were replaced by groups of kids of Demeter/Ceres and Dionisius/Bacchus, who had powers to control and growth plants.

If they weren't so good at their jobs, Brennan would cry for the quantity of money he used to get a some of them.

On the bright side, he obtained four sons of Asclepius, that had the magnificent powers of medical omniscience and biokinesis, so they knew every single thing that had to know about medicine and powers to use it.

To improve his own skills, he absorbed one.

Also, thanks to all food produced in the grains plains, now the had four keeps raising fifty thousand heads of sheeps and goats, a hundred thousand of chickens, a two thousand heads of Aurochs, and a small family of twenty mammoths.

The four keeps were called the horn keep, the chicken keep, the bull keep and the mammoth keep.

Even today Brennan enjoyed the face of the people seeing mammoths for the first time.

He couldn't wait to see the peoples face when he bring creatures from Essos and Sothoryos
