Chapter 5 - Astapor

[MC POV]

294 AC

My to conquer Slaver's Bay was simple to what Daenerys did but better I take Astapor like she did the Prince Oberyn will lead windblown and the company of rose to Yunkai we then would meet up and conquer Meereen. I would also have the element of surprise those masters are far too arrogant to believe someone would conquer them.

Astapor was truly shitted I already known that but seeing it with my eyes was different an old crumbling statue of an astapori harper atop the harbor gate. All the city was made out of a red brick substance they say it's stained with the blood of the slaves who build them. The bay shore is dominated by stepped pyramids. All manner of trees vines and flowers grow on the terraces of the pyramids.

''What do you think of city so far'' I ask the group 

''It's like any other port city but worse'' said Rhaenys

''It smells like old whore'' said Tyene

''These Master have too much proud in this city'' stated Obara.

''By the Old Gods this place hot feels like my blood boiling'' said Asher.

''The walk of punishment is terrible'' said Nymeria rolling her eyes.

''I feel disgusted by even being in this city'' said Ser Arthur

''So do I brother'' said Ashara 

''City has not change at all since the last time I've been here'' said Shiera.

I see a fat man dressed in a green toga and long red bread I'm guessing this was Master Kraznys there was little girl next him had brown skin and golden eyes she had on a simple dress. 

''This one shall be your translator for today this is the great Master Kraznys'' said Missandei.

''It's nice to meet the Great Master Kraznys let's get down to business tell me about the Unsullied'' I said.

''Se Dovaogedy emagon nykeortan kesir syt tubis se bantis mijegon havor nykea nykeedar'' Kraznys said in Low Valyrian

''The Unsullied have stood here for day and night without food or water'' translated Missandei.

''Ponta jahor nykeoragon eva ponta rughagon'' said Kraznys

''They will stand until they drop'' translated Missandei.

''Such iksos poja pihtenkave''

''Such is their obedience'' translated Missandei.

''They fit my needs tell me about their training'' I said.

''They begin their training at five and is from dawn to dusk it is brutal designed not only to teach how to fight, but to strip away all individuality, empathy and self-worth. Once they are fully castrated their manhood are burned in the alter of the Lady of Spears. Slaves that fell in any aspect of their training are killed. Only a third of the slaves make through the training and become unsullied. On that day they are cut they given a puppy to take care of at the end of the year the is made to strangle the puppy if they fail to do so he will be killed and fed to the other dogs.

Tyene and Nymeria were visible disgusted Obara kept her cool but also looked bother Asher, Arthur and Rhaenys showed no reaction they already knew about training of the Unsullied. Rhaenys was acting more Queen like which made me proud she would always a warrior at heart but I happy with her growth. 

''Ponta discipline se pazavorve issi absolute '' said Kraznys.

''Their discipline and loyalty are absolute'' translated Missandei.

''Ponta emagon daor zugagon'' said Kraznys.

''They have no fear'' translated Missandei.

''Even the bravest man fears death'' stated Ser Arthur

''Se azantys gida se bravest vala zugagon hen morghon'' translated Missandei.

''Ivestragon se uepa vala qiloni smells hen orgoz dovaogedy ossi daor vali morghon means daorun naejot ziry'' said Kraznys

''The Unsullied are not men death means nothing to them'' translated Missandei leaving out the part when he said Ser Arthur smelled like piss.

Ser Arthur had some learned some low Valyrian I'm sure he understood what he said but to the man's credit he didn't show any sign of being insulted. Rhaenys lip twitch that meant she was getting irritated I could understand Arthur was like a father to us having be insulted by a dirty slaver was insulting to us. 

''Ivestragon bisa mandia fucker vesteros naejot open zyhon laesi se urnebagon'' said Kraznys

Kraznys garbs a knife walk to one of the Unsullied unstrap his chest armor and proceeded to cut off the man nipple. The Unsullied showed no sign of pain or discomfort their pain tolerance was certainly impressive. 

Vali don't jorraelagon nipples'' said Kraznys

''Men don't need nipples'' translated Missandei.

Arthur slowly shook his head disproving of the action.

Asher looked like he wanted to curse but kept his mouth shut.

Obara looked impressed with the Unsullied pain tolerance.

Tyene and Ashara frowned at the cruelty.

Nymeria and Shiera looked unimpressed in the little time were growing tired with the Master arrogance.

Rhaenys kept her mask of composer, but I could tell her there was fury behind her eyes the dragon in her was awaking.

''Naejot erinagon zyhon sumby nykea dovaogedy olive jikagon naejot se buzdari mark rusir nykea sliver tistakelio rusir nykea mark se ossenagon ziry go its munnykea laesi'' said Kraznys

''To win his shield an Unsullied most go to the slave market with a sliver coin find a newborn and kill it before its mother eyes'' translated Missandei.

''Bisa nuhoso, konir iksos daor nakostobaves geptot isse ziry'' said Kraznys

''This way, there is no weakness left in them'' translated Missandei.

''You take baby from its mother arms kill before her eyes and pay her with a sliver coin?'' Rhaenys ask with a dangerous edge in her voice she probably remember the pain her own mother a suffered. I garb her hand gently claiming her down.

Missandei translate her question.

''Skoros nykea rapa vaovaori mitttys bisy iksos se gelenka goes naejot se aeksio hen munnykea'' said Kraznys.

''My master would like you to know that the sliver goes to the owner not the mother'' said Missandei leaving out the part where he called my sister a fool. If this was a year ago Rhaenys would have shoved his spear down the man's throat perhaps she still will when this all over.

''How many do you have for sell'' I ask?

''8,000'' Missandei respond.

''Tvestragon se vesterozia vala se zyhon liv bona emagon eve hemtubis'' said Kraznys

''My master says you have until tomorrow'' translated Missandei.

''I will shove my spear down that man's throat fifty slaver he thinks he can insult House Targaryen without consequences I'll make him regret it'' said Rhaenys furiously.

''Claim down my love you will have his head soon enough my love'' I said as I hold her hand and kiss her cheek.

''You shouldn't waste your time on his kind your grace you should let me deal with him'' said Ser Arthur.

''I would also like to kill him'' Obara commented.

''I'm stay in the Inn not I'll explore the city wants it's conquered'' said Nymeria.

''Me too I need sharpen my knifes before the slaughter'' said Tyene with an overly feminine tone.

''I hope we don't have to wait too long'' said Ashara.

 'I'm going for walk around the city I want to try out some of my more subtle magic'' said Shiera.

''I'll come with you'' I said.

As we walk near the Walk of Punishment, we started talking about I her growing powers.

''Ever since the day you bestow upon me the power of Onixa Goddess of Sorcery, Witchcraft and Vengeance my understanding of magic has grown immensely my thinking of magic was much too narrow before'' she says as she turns a slaver into dog while know looking.

''Your far more versatile than me or Rhaenys I remember when turned Rhaenys water into snow while practicing she so mad that day'' I said laughing.

''Because of me she learned she could turn ice and snow into water should be grateful I did that'' said Shiera while using her shadow magic to engulf an apple in shadow it vanished then appeared in her hand.

''When did your shadow blinding become better than mines'' I ask curious? 

''Recently did you expect anything less from the future Goddess of magic and director of the Imperium of Valyria magic school'' she said proudly.

''Have you figure out your vengeance domain'' I asks?

''Unfortunately, I haven't had any progress with that ability, but I think I have a solution'' she said.

''Do tell'' I said.

''The feelings of vengeance are strong in this place the vengeance is slowly giving power if I focus hard enough on an individual, I could tell why they are vengeful.

''That makes sense this is the best place to feel someone vengeance'' I said.

''When fighting starts I'm going to try and manipulate the vengeance of the slave'' she said.

''Good idea'' I responded.

Hour Later...

''I want all the Unsullied'' I said

''All? did this one ear mishear your grace'' ask Missandei.

''They did not I want by them all'' I said

Missandei translate ''

Ziry kostagon afford ziry ry'' ziry thinks ziry kostagon show ilva zyhon orvorta se mazverdagon ilva tepagon ziryla skoros mirre ziry wants'' said Kraznys

''There eight thousand is what you mean by all'' ask Missandei?

''Yes, eight thousand and the ones in training as well'' I said.

''Lo ponta ropagon va se battlefield ponta jaher shame Astapor'' said Master Greizhen.

''Master Greizhen says we cannot sell half-trained boys if they fail on battlefield, they will bring shame upon Astapor'' translated Missandei.

''I will have them all or take none many will fall battle the boys will have to pick up their swords they drop'' I said.

The master's groans before insulting me again asking how I'm going to pay for this. I signal Arthur and Obara to get the gold. They come back in with the help slavers lifting four chests full of gold shutting all the master's mouths.

''I'll also want you'' I said pointing at Missandei. 

She looked surprised but quickly translated

Few Hours later

Now that they had gathered all the unsullied, I finally go on with plan if I finished soon enough, I'll be able to make it to Yokai within two days.

''Finally, there down now here comes the fun part'' said Rhaenys grinning like a mad man I could her getting stronger through her conquest domain. 

The exchange took place I gave him the money he gave me the whip with that down it was time to act.

''Dovaogedy syt naejot memebagon'' [Unsullied forward march] I say in Valyrian.

They all move forward in perfect unions until I say halt. 

''Dovaogedy ossenagon se syx aeksia ossenagon se mentyr ossenagon tolvie vala qiloni wears nykea tokar nykea hose nykea qilony yn odrikagon daor rinar go twelve pryjagon se belmon hen tolvie buzdari ao undegon'' I said

All the Unsullied follow my orders they started killing every master they could find Arthur and Obara quickly got into action as well killing master and soldier with speed like no other.

Shiera was already focusing on increasing the feeling of vengeance among the slaves it was working I could see slaves taking advantage of chaos and attacking their masters. 

Rhaenys did as she said she would she grabbed her spear charge towards master Kraznys she jumped in the air using her superhuman strength. She caught the master intention who was surprised by her strength he looked like he was going to run. But it was already too late she aimed her spear perfectly and use gravity for the rest. Her spear pierced through his months all the way down till it came out of his ass he's body twitch for few a minutes before he died. 

I joined the battle wielding Light Bringer like a mad man I cut through people like paper. My strength domain combined with sharpness of the blade made for a deadly combination. I used my strength domain to empower other people it was the first time I tried something like this. It was working the slaves had more power in their attacks and their moments were faster. Combined with the amplified feelings of vengeance this would take less time than I original thought. After the slaughter was over, I gathered the Unsullied prepaid to give them a chose. Most of the slaves were watching from a distant not sure what was going to happen to them. 

''Dovaogedy ao emagon issare slaves ry aoha lives tubi ao issi daez mirre vala qiloni wishes naejot henujagon kostagon gaomagon sir daor odrikagon jahor mazigon naejot ao jemot kivio nuhe tepan jahor ao vilibagon paktot issa hae freeman? [Unsullied you have been slaves all your lives today you are free If you chose to lead no one will harem you have my word or can stay and fight with me as a freeman]

For minute there was only silence as I waited for them to make decisions then one of them started to hit the ground with their spear then another and another until all of them were doing it. 

Rhaenys looked at me with proud ''Your planed work'' she said. 

''This is only the beginning dear sister'' I said.
