Chapter 375 High Priest (Part 2)

"It is not difficult for you to leave Dragonstone, although I am in Queen Not long around, but trusted." Moqorro leaned against the stone stack Motionless As Mountains on the edge of the tower, "but the hard part is how to make this misunderstanding and make the prophecy come true. Lord of Light keeps me on fire Seeing Daenerys Targaryen and Lord Commander of the Night's Watch at the same time is absolutely impossible for no reason. If the two become strangers or even enemies due to this stupid misunderstanding, it will definitely cause great harm to this crucial battle between our lord and the old enemy. Wonderful impact."

Melisandre didn't answer right away.

That's right, what Moqorro just said is yet another theory that is generally accepted among the high priests - starting with the way Red God followers receive the R'hllor divine decree from the fire. The messages that the Lord of Light conveys to believers through the flames are mainly divided into three categories: the first category is the most common, by showing in the fire what has happened or is happening now, helping believers to understand the truth of the matter or to make decisions about the danger that will occur Prepare for response; and second, is a strong foreshadowing or reminder, usually very vague and abstract, requiring the oneself to interpret it - the most typical example: Melisandre saw Dragonstone in the flames, so he came to Westeros, and saw another There was an ice wall, so I went to the land grant.

Third Type is the most special, a clear and clear picture, showing what did not happen, the source of all prophecies.

Different from the "future is revealed in the flames" which is usually claimed to the common people, the high priests actually know in their hearts: the future things that are revealed in the flames, if the beholder does nothing, there will be Quite a few will not happen. This means that the future they see in the flame is probably not the "true future", but "the future that the Lord of Light hopes or needs to happen", R'hllor transmits information through the flame, Issue a mission to believers, reminding and urging them to use their wisdom and initiative to realize it as a fact!
Melisandre's sighting of the Demon Dragon breathing fire to burn the ghoul in the flames at least means that R'hllor hopes the dragon will play a role in this final battle, but there is another further possibility, which is He is reminding oneself: Night's Watch and North cannot win this battle without the dragon's participation!
 …

After thinking about this part, she nodded her mouth and realized that it was much more than just escaping from Dragonstone: "Think carefully, is there any way to save the scene?"

"Really." Moqorro turned his head and glanced at Melisandre, "Your Lord Commander gave the Queen a gift today, what is it?"

"You weren't there. uh, a booklet. I asked him what was in it while on the boat and he gave me a look...strange content, a bunch of pompous talk and rhetoric that seems to be related to politics, which is not at all for me What happened?”

“The Queen was in a bad mood after the interview. After returning to the Conference Hall, the two think tanks continued to argue about the next move of the army, while she was in a bad mood. Sitting on the side and turning over the small gift with a sullen face. At first I thought she would tear it up or throw it in the stove in the next second, but it was very different - just one glance, her naked eye The palpable ten thousand zhang's anger had almost subsided, and the Queen spent the rest of the time until dinner, reading the booklet intently, putting aside all the aides in the heated quarrel." Moqorro "Finally, when Queen lifted the head again, she asked me why her most powerful followers wouldn't acknowledge her legitimacy," recalls me.

"It's funny, I really can't see the rush The written booklet has this kind of magic power. How would you answer that?"

"Although I can't guess what Queen read from it, I can see that she has deliberately suppressed the feeling of Supreme Treasure. So I The answer is - 'Your most powerful follower, isn't it in your hands'."

"An intelligent answer." Priests use vague sentences and expressions when deciphering prophecies to outsiders , just to be able to remedy this kind of rollover situation, "So, that booklet is her 'most powerful follower', you didn't deceive the Queen or make a mistake of judgment."

"Fuck it for a while. But Daenerys is not a fool, and things have to be resolved. Queen then asked his two think tanks where the book came from and where the complete volume was, which Varys dismissed as an 'empty and unrealistic fantasy', And Baelish doesn't have an opinion...of course, what they both agree on: they've never read or heard of it This book. So, Queen will definitely ask tomorrow, I'll take a breath tonight, where did the content in this booklet come from? "

"Written by the Lord Commander on the boat on the way to Dragonstone from Eastwatch, Varys and Baelish are both well-informed and learned mortals, and if they haven't heard of them, neither have I... ..."

"Could it be that he wrote it, how could it be possible to write a book in a few days? What's more interesting is that a Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, where does he have the knowledge to teach an authentic Queen how to be a monarch? Moqorro was also curious, but after all, this matter has little to do with the problem at hand, "I have an idea." Go back and speak to your Lord Commander, and the Queen answered this when asked about the booklet: The primordial version of the book is in the library of the Night's Watch Legion, but due to its age and weathering, it cannot withstand long-distance transportation. Read on the ground. "

"Why answer that? "

"Create alone time for them, I can see that the Lord Commander is not a clumsy person, given the opportunity, he can do everything by oneself..."

Melisandre snorted contemptuously: "Dragon Queen is amazingly beautiful, but Igor West isn't a lustful man, and you look down on him too much. "

"You're a woman, and you don't know the magic of Daenerys." Moqorro's toothy, dark skin and the night light made him smile as if a white Jade suddenly appeared in the night. "This attraction ignores the firmness of will and whether the orientation is normal or not, and directly affects the body and the depths of the subconscious. , for unknown reasons, the extent to which different men are affected by this attraction is quite different, but it is certain that any male with normal body will be affected by it. "

"You're also male and affected by this attraction?" "

"Yes, fortunately, I am the kind of physique who is least affected. Although I can feel it, I am an old fogey. Moqorro shrugged, "And from what I've seen during the day, Lord Commander seems to be the most affected. As long as there are enough contacts and time together, he will be hopelessly infatuated with Queen. This is not a question of whether or not to take it lightly, just like no one can commit suicide by holding their breath... People are unable and instinctive confrontational. "

Just as two-dimensional creatures are impossible to understand three-dimensional, Melisandre impossible as a woman understands how this attraction is through imagination. But just as Moqorro trusts her, she does not doubt each other: "If she can Realization is a solution. Dragonstone is thousands of miles away from the land grant, and the land in the middle is full of Queen's enemies... If she wants to go to the site of Night's Watch to find the complete volume of the book, she must ride a dragon to it. As soon as the dragon arrives at the Wall...the prophecy will be fulfilled for the most part! "

"So, the basic direction is determined? Go through the details and see if there are any mistakes. "

Melisandre, no

N agrees, then as easy as blowing off dust, he found a big loophole: "Wait, since Night's Watch is impossible to accept Queen's conditions, then tomorrow morning, when Queen comes to ask Igor for an answer , do you want him to reject her again? "

"Oh, damn...forgot about that." Moqorro patted his big round belly, pondered for a while, and shook his head decisively, "It's impossible, Daenerys has a good nature and a good temper, but if you want to force her to suffer the humiliation of being rejected in person and unable to come down to the stage again for no reason, It's meaningless, and it's not good for them to meet again in the future. Seems like we two would be better off representing our respective Child of Prophecy tonight, negotiating everything, and leaving their reunion -- to Wall. ”
