Aftermath

Two days had passed and burying the dead I sat on my throne with Qyburn by my side whilst I ticked more names off on my list whilst he queried more about my kind and explaining it for the most part he smiled as I said “Despite my kinds intentions for humans to be slaves I will treat all equal” he nodded being asking more questions with Ares helping out when necessary, "Sire what should we do with the prisoners?" I thought about it before saying, "Let's go through them!" he nodded before signalling for the guards in they kicked the group who were now chained by the feet to each other and looking at me they all glumly watched apart for Tyrion who the guards mocked and laughed at, "Hey stop that!" I snapped causing the men to stop and pointing to him spoke, "You used to be a diplomat slash ambassador right?" he nodded causing me to say, "Unchain him now!" Qyburn looked at me as I spoke, "I like two advisors who don't agree with each other to raise both sides of an argument from there we can reach a better solution and if I send one somewhere I will still have my second!" he nodded as Tyrion bowed causing me to pull him up by his arm, "Don't bother with that rubbish and sit down!" "As you wish Sire!" I looked at the next one and seeing the darkened haired woman heard her speak, "Kill me why don't you?" I shook my head before speaking, "I have a better idea, I am fully aware of your sexuality!" "Why does that matter?" causing me to say, "I want to offer you a second chance, in the North-highlands where the Scots and Picts used to live I want someone to govern it, if you apologise to Cersei and swear loyalty to the crown you can have that land to govern, the Greyjoy name will live on and I will provide you with a bride!" "Whose's the bride?" "Khaleesi who if she swears allegiance gets her drakon back under some advisory help and a bride in you Yara!" Yara looked at Khaleesi who nervously looked at Yara as Yara spoke, "I'm sorry Cersei after what I attempted to do and your loss and if you treat me with respect I will swear allegiance to you!" I nodded before shaking her hand kissed her cheek, "Have fun!"

Khaleesi looked at me before saying, "I won't apologise to that bitch who deserves to suffer!" "I don't expect you to and I will try to get Cersei to apologise but in the meantime what do you say?" Yara took her hand before saying, "Why not give it an try?" she nodded before saying, "I agree!" and nodding I spoke, "Unchain them!" Qyburn leaned in before saying whispering, "Is that wise giving them land?" Tyrion simply said, "The land in the North is demilitarised and almost derelict apart for the border **** who is limited and old, the rest are farmers and villagers who have not a single clue on how to fight!" I nodded before saying, "In this deal includes condition which restricts the number of men their forces can have, artillery machines and size of military barracks! With a nearby **** of ours stationed near to act as an deterrence" Qyburn nodded before getting back up said, "Again wise, why is it that so many don't think of this!" "In my life I have seen several empires rise and fall and from this learned the do and don'ts of ruling!" he nodded before getting the next one spoke, "Gilly!" and seeing the pregnant woman walk forward she spoke, "My child is now fatherless due to Ares, I want compensation!" I smiled before saying, "Casualties of war, Gilly but you will receive the full medical support for the child and access to the top education, you have my word and a pension!” she nodded before seeing the next a right fireball called, Meera Reed, "She is a skilled hunter, tracker, archer and virtual assassin!" Tyrion spoke which Qyburn nodded before speaking, "Just not always trustworthy!" I nodded before saying, "Family?" "Dead Sire unlike Gilly I realise and understand the loss in war!" “Lover?” “I had one but he died and was resurrected as something else, I won’t over complicate it! Name Bran Stark!” I scanned through my massive list as said, “I always wondered why he was on my list, I thought the current one was Bran Jr. or the second!” and nodding I spoke, "What do you want?" "For now a place to stay and think of where to go next!" I nodded before saying, "Bodyguard, you could hold yourself in a fight so bodyguard!" she nodded before retrieving her weapons spoke, "Thank you!" and seeing the her light smile spoke, "You should smile more it suits you!"

"Now you Cersei!" I spoke and feeling Ares' nudge I nodded, "Ares I remember the deal is to reunite the family but what she has done has to be punished!" she stood there covering herself **** as the others jeered and for once seeing another side to her spoke, "No longer a queen or mother. Tyrion also came to me to beg for mercy and I acknowledge the tough time she has gone through, some demand execution, others exile!" I sat there before asking Tyrion, "What is she like with children?" "Her one redeeming quality!" as Qyburn spoke, "She has done good things in her life she isn't all evil and child raising is one of her good qualities!" I nodded before saying, "In my land we have a punishment called Detitlation and Cersei, I punish you by that! You are stripped of all royal titles, land holdings, luxuries, money, influence and any non-basic rights and banned from leaving the town without my consent and if necessary guarded day and night!" "Not ****?" "I have shown leniency because of the recent events and the chance to redeem yourself. I therefore appoint you as nanny and protector of the royal children, with the power to act if you prove yourself as regent if something should happen to me, however to avoid installing yourself on the throne by the age of sixteen my child will have to take over! When you eventually pass on hopefully from old age you will rejoin your Isu family. It's important THAT ALL remember that she is a NEW woman! She is Isu and if you dare touch her, you will be dealing with the gods" she nodded before whispering "Thank you" and nodding I simply smiled as the chains were removed as I was handed and piece of parchment that simply stated “You have guests.”

I nodded as the doors opened and seeing the three women walk in smiled as Sansa’s eyes lit up with Arya staring in shock at the outcome with Brienne keeping her hand on her sword, “How did you get there?” Brienne queried and seeing the new layout I simply said, “Turns out I am the legitimate heir thanks to Sansa’s discovery” and smiling I beckoned them forward.

They ventured forward and stopping around ten metres away Brienne stared at the metal soldiers as she spoke, “So that’s why Jon’s head is on a spike!” “Stand down Brienne, that spiking of the head is a Hades memo, not mine, I am actually here to reward you for your services!” “My services to what?” “For keeping two women I hold dear to me safe!” she nodded as the men who were playing a drinking game heard Tyrion call out, “I know, everyone who thinks Brienne isn’t a virgin drink!” everyone remained still apart for me who drank a mouthful simply said, “She isn’t!” “How do you know?” and nudging Ares’ leg he drank as well to Qyburn’s smile of acknowledge of trying to not embarrass the woman spoke, “When recruiting for my army I met her rallying support in a local town, something similar was happening as it is now and after taking care of them, me and Brienne got a room whilst the men drank!” Ares nodded as he said, “Quite true!” Qyburn seeing where we were going with spoke, “So that is the blonde you were on about I thought you meant a feminine blonde like Khaleesi or someone, I was going to say to have muscles like her hers and petitely built doesn’t work! You know what to do!” and groaning the men downed their drinks for being wrong as she nodded causing me to wink to the jealously of Sansa.

I looked at the three women before saying, “Arya for being the last Stark in name I am granting you co-rulership with Brienne in Mercia, you work it out however you want just remember you serve me!” they nodded as Tyrion spoke, “A knight which is Brienne’s official title can’t hold any land to that degree!” I nodded before pulling my sword out asked Brienne to kneel before saying, “Brienne of Tarth, knight I bestow on you the new title of: Lady of Mercia!” and helping her she hugged me, “Thank you!” I nodded before kissing her cheek said, “I won’t have people ridiculed in my court!” and kissing my cheek I said, “And if you ever did want to lose it, you know where I am!” she nodded before seeing Sansa beckoned her closer as Arya thinking about what said spoke, “Wait last Stark in name!” I nodded before saying, “I wish to court Sansa to help maintain peace within the kingdom and to have some one who is the complete opposite to me, someone is smart, kind and doesn’t get as angry as us gods!” Ares laughed before agreeing causing me to say, “However that can wait another day for tonight all will drink and be merry! Did the civilians get the provisions?” Qyburn nodded before handing him a bottle I spoke, “Thank you! I won’t forget this either of you two!” Tyrion nodded as I walked up to be met by the remaining Starks as Meera followed and getting kissed by Brienne, Tyrion said openly, “Maybe some good will come out of the gods rule!” and breaking the ice Qyburn spoke, “Will be less fighting for sure and him showing leniency to the enemy could show his aims but one of us will have to go to Mercia as diplomat!” Tyrion nodded before saying, “They know me so I expect I will go but he could want a loyal man to keep them in check which could mean you, either way we will meet again!” he nodded before smiling spoke, “That much is true, however we know he is in love with Sansa but he shouldn’t rush in to things it may come off as a plan all along, slow courting will show love at first sight over planned conquering!” Tyrion nodded before saying, “You’re right! I just hope for peace for the most part in the remaining of our lives!” “We all do!”
