Chapter 26 Risk and Violence
It is easy to take it for granted that Igor has repeatedly committed crimes after entering this world Similar error.

Whether it was a near-fatal death with a false impression of the number of enemies in the initial encounter with the Others, or the failure to get into trouble this time around trying to disrupt an important plot, it's the same fault. He first decided that James and Cersei would not dare to enter the first castle for an affair when there were people in the old inner courtyard, and after being ignored, he thought that Bran would walk to the bottom of the first castle and climb up... In the end, both sides rudely used their actions to fight. Face, the tragedy could not be avoided in the end.

After racking his brains for most of the night, Igor still couldn't come up with a good way to escape from the future difficulties, forcing oneself to close his eyes, dazed, physically and mentally exhausted, he even oneself I don't know when I entered the dreamland.

Sleep is always the best rest. When the first ray of morning light came into Igor's room from the small lattice window the next morning, he opened his eyes and lay on the bed for one minute, a bold idea suddenly came out of his mind. emerges.

Since you can't stay out of the plot, why not hide at all?
＊＊＊

I had a sleepless night in the middle of the night, half of Igor was thinking about how to save Bran from the assassination, and the other half was thinking about how to clear the relationship if the assassination still happened, but no matter what Neither way has yielded results, and the reason is very simple - when he was thinking of an idea, he unconsciously added a harsh condition to oneself: not involving oneself.

Who ordered the assassin to kill Bran with a Valyria steel dagger? The original author only vaguely gave the object of suspicion, and the screenwriter did not give an exact answer. Hundreds of stories have been debated, some think it's Cersei who is trying to silence, some think it's Joffrey who holds a grudge after being slapped by Uncle, and some even think that it's Littlefinger who is far away in King's Landing desperately trying to cause chaos... The supporters of each view have a lot of supporting evidence and reasons that seem convincing, making it impossible for Igor to make a positive judgment.

I don't know who assassin is, when who sent it, and how to stop it quietly?

Preventing an assassination is difficult, and it's even more impossible to get rid of the relationship after the fact, for one simple reason: the move of the training ground to the old inner courtyard was not hidden from outsiders, and "first discovery" of Bran's fall Its identity is as everyone knows, not to mention that this accident is indeed directly related to oneself - since they are not innocent, how can we get rid of the relationship?
With so many difficulties in front of you, you also put shackles and restrictions on oneself's thinking, and delusionally hide in the dark and let things pass quietly, and no one thinks of oneself. Isn't it whimsical?

In that case, join in!

Igor is usually a sensible and calm person, but he in the bones is actually quite stubborn and unbelieving, he doesn't like to be busy, but he is not afraid of trouble when it comes. If it is impossible to separate the relationship and prevent Bran from being assassinated by the power of oneself, then abandon all superfluous conditions - break the situation in the simplest and crudest way, and directly tell the House Stark people that someone is going to assassinate Bran, what will happen?

Following this line of thought, his first thought was to leave a note to House Stark anonymously, but once oneself was assassinated in this way, he would still be in trouble. If he wanted to not be suspected and targeted, oneself would be the most important. It is good to play a role that is absolutely innocent and will not be suspected: the messenger.

Go directly to the House Stark members and inform Bran that Bran may be assassinated.

Who should I look for? The first thing Igor thought of was Jon Snow, whom he had just met, but thinking that this guy is just a child for the time being, and his reliability is questionable, so he had no choice but to give up. Then, there was only one Wolf Family member he knew and had a chance to meet.

As for who to report... After thinking about it, Igor chose Joffrey. This Prince himself is the most suspicious, and was suspected by Tyrion in the original work. Not to mention these, he considers that his identity is the most sensitive but will not involve oneself - Joffrey's surname is Baratheon, he is, at least currently in the eyes of the Stark family Here is the son of King Robert.

A little child, the future ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, learns that he wants Bran to die, no matter how angry Eddard is, he will never explode immediately. Oneself leaves Tyrion of Wall...Igor has given up on everything to get out of that dangerous and hard place.

If there is really some strange existence in the dark to maintain the development of the plot, he would like to see: this time oneself is willing to take the risk and directly intervene, how can you deal with me?
＊＊＊

Bran's fall delayed the King's return to King's Landing. Robert returned to King's Landing to take Ed, the new Prime Minister, and now his son fell and fell to his death Unpredictable, in order to show friendship and empathy, the king not only did not leave as originally planned, but also guarded the unconscious bear child with his good brother all night.

For the sake of rationality, Igor patiently dragged on for a day before cautiously finding the Chief Ranger Benjen Stark, who had not spoken for several days.

 …

"What's the matter?" The support requested from the brother had not yet arrived, and a nephew was lying on the bed half-dead, the Stark looked tired. And worried.

"Sir, I have something to tell you..."

"Since you stepped through the door, you must have come to a conclusion, so speak up."

"This matter involves a great character, I dare to ask the adults to ensure my safety."

Benjen looked up at Igor suspiciously, and nodded impatiently: " I promise, let's talk."

"It's about your nephew, Bran." Igor began to speak in organized language, and suddenly felt that oneself was a bit like a slanderer for no reason. He, and everything that follows, he made up: "The other day he fell while climbing a wall and was first spotted by me who was not far away from a shooting test with Ser Jaime, so I overheard this morning. When someone was talking about it, subconsciously kept an eye out."

"en. "Benjen nods to show that oneself is listening.

"It was Joffrey Prince who was talking, and a Knight in armor that I didn't know. That Knight said that even if Bran recovered, he would not be able to walk for the rest of his life, and he might as well die."

p>

The Chief Ranger frowned, which was true in a sense: in this cruel and cold world, the life of the disabled will undoubtedly be difficult and painful, and looking at the history of Tyrion's growth, Visible. But this kind of thought, I can think about it in my heart, but it is extremely disrespectful to the owner of Winterfell... Who is so arrogant?

Well, it doesn't really matter who is actually, you can't be held accountable for someone else's casual remarks in private. Benjen Stark looked at the smartest Ranger under oneself, and understood that the opponent impossible came to oneself to make a small report just for this sentence, and there must be other follow-up developments.

"Prince Joffrey agreed with the words of the Knight. Originally, the matter was over here, and I was going to leave, but the next words of His Highness Prince made me vigilant." Igor continued pretending to be nervous. "Prince said he was going to give Bran Stark 'kindness' to relieve his pain when he woke up."

"Mercy." Benjen's brows furrowed even tighter: "What exactly did he do? What did he say?"

"He said, 'Like the Braavos, give liberation to the House Stark boy'." Igor vividly described for the Chief Ranger that it was completely in his mind. The scene and words, "If it's just like that, Prince also took out a dagger... I didn't see what it was, I was behind a haystack at the time and could only listen with my ears - he introduced to the Knight. Say, 'This is a dagger of Valyria steel that I took out of the Royal Father's arsenal, with a dragon bone hilt, worthy of House Stark's child'."

" Continue."

"The next words, because the two of them are far away, I can't hear clearly, but for sure, Prince asked the Knight to find a mercenary and put the Valyria steel I gave him the dagger to do this." Igor said vaguely, "Personally, this may just be a child bragging, but after all, it is a big deal, I thought about it again and again and decided to tell the adults about it. Even if it's just a joke, but Sending more guards outside Master Bran Young's room wouldn't be a big trouble."

Benjen thought for a while with a solemn expression, wondering what was going on in his heart, and after a while, he stared at Igor and spoke. : "Do you know what you're doing."

"To accuse the future king of the Seven Kingdoms without evidence is treason and be executed according to the law."

"Look Come on, you already know the Westeros culture and laws well, so I won't talk nonsense, now go back to the room, remember not to talk about this to anyone, it's anyone, understand."

"As you bid."
