Back in the great hall.
.
Ragnar managed to get out unscathed, he was to serve a sentence of farming and cleaning everything within the small town.
Over the following days, Arthur was getting bored with his daily basis feeding of the dragons.
With a huff of annoyance, he walked over to the three of them, "hey!, Dread, come here, I want to speak with you".
The black dragon turned and huffed as well, it's massive frame shaking in defiance, but it still came towards him.
Arthur pointed towards the distance and spoke in a hushed voice,"in that direction, I want you to fly with me, until we reach a shore line, you can eat any sheep and cow you come across, do we have ourselves a deal".
'squeak'
Dread tilted it's massive head, and looked behind it, it didn't hesitate to lower itself for Arthur to climb on top.
He did so, and the shot off into the sky, about a day later, Dread landed and looked around, it's snout breathing heavily as it surveyed it's surroundings.
Arthur however jumped down and looked around too, seeing the snow coming down, he stared into the distance as he pulled up a hood from his large leather coat.
"Stay here until I come back and make sure no one finds you, just kill them".
About two days later, he arrived at a port the rain coming down hard, but it didn't bother him, he could barely even feel the weather anymore, his body just won't allow itself to feel either cold nor hot.
Seeing a man holstering a horse, he walked over and asked him a question, "hey, what town is this called?".
"You new around here?, well whatever, you're in Karhold, just a few more miles that way and you'll be at their castle, careful though, they'll stick you with arrows, if you get too close".
As the man was finished with the holstering, he turned back around and found the man already gone.
"That was strange, fucker was like a ghost"
.
For those that are interested, he looks like this.

Arthur went in the other direction, having no idea he was heading towards winterfell, a frown had appeared on his face at some point, "Karhold?, why does that sound familiar, just like the wildlings, it can't be right?, am I.., am I really in that Game of thrones, shit!".
A few hours later, within a forest, the rain was still heavy and Arthur's eyes landed on a few people hiding in separate tree lines, watching his every movement.
As he kept walking, finally one of those people came out with his sword drawn.
"Hehehehe, looks like you're a straggler, hand over all your stuff, me and my boys want everything you have, including those cheeks of yours".
The man that appeared, licked his lips while staring at Arthur's ass.
"I only see you, what boy's?!, you think you can scare me all alone"
The man opposite of Arthur frowned, waving his hand, eight people came out of the tree lines, three with bows and five with axes and swords.
Arthur looked at each one of them, not at all scared, his face was flat, as he slowly took his hood down.
"Oh ho, look at him boys!, he's a blondie, must be a Lannister!, what's a little fucker like you, doing all the way down North".
They couldn't really see the golden eyes that were glowing, except for one of the Archer's, his face couldn't help but form a worried expression, he could feel a bad omen befalling everyone here.
He didn't even realize that his grip on the bow loosened and an arrow shot towards Arthur.
With a strange and fast movement, Arthur moved back slightly, everyone who saw it, had their eyes bulging from shock.
Arthur slowly took his blade out of it's sheath from his back, "I needed this, been getting a little rusty, don't scream, I don't want to kill any innocent men or woman".
An afterimage appeared and Arthur vanished from their view, but their eyes quickly landed on the figure split in two, it was the one that shot the arrow.
There was no one behind him, no one there, it was like he was cut by a thread of invisible wires.
"Aghhh!"
"Ahhh!"
"Gugh!"
"Ugh!"
'poof'
The leader of the group finally saw it on the last person, an afterimage of a shining blue sword, as he saw his pal being cleaved into thousands of pieces.
Taking steps back, he threw the sword away, "wait!, dear god!, god of the old god's, I beg you for your forgiveness, please don't kill me!".
"You've seen my face, my abilities, you can't live I'm afraid".
Tears fell down the man's face, he looked defeated and utterly terrified, slowly closing his eyes, the only thing he felt before death took him, was darkness.
Arthur wiped the blade on the dead man's clothes and sheathed it, "there should be a deer around here, or a boar, I've not eaten since yesterday".
Just as Arthur put his hood back up, a voice came from the distance, "halt!, don't move!, stay perfectly still!".
Arthur tilted his head slightly, he saw a tall woman in black armour and a black drape over her shoulders and the several knights beside her were in silver.
The woman who saw those golden eyes under the dark hood, felt her scalp tingling, it was like she looking at a beast.
But she bit down on her gums hard and jumped off the horse, "who are you?!, did you do this?!".
"I did, bandit's, thieves or whatever they are, I mean were".
"My Lady, we can't let him go, he's too dangerous, we didn't hear their fight, so it was probably a quick one".
"No!, stand down!, stranger!, tell me your name?!, I wish to know of your title if you have one!".
Arthur smiled, he thought he could fuck with them a little, "names Arthur, I'm a descendant of the Blackfire, the demi god of time and love, keeper of ancient dragons and new".
"Heh, quite exaggerated!, you think we'll believe that, where's your dragon then!, show us your power of time and love dear God".
Arthur felt that man's sarcasm, so he looked up at the sky and smiled, "so you've followed me Mergther!, show them true power!, they think I'm lying!".
The knights and woman also looked up, due to curiosity, they saw a massive shadow in the sky that could be seen, even if it was covered in dark clouds, it's shadow was visible to them.
They took several steps back, as they saw the clouds parting for a massive creature as he came down at an incredible speed.
'boom'
Mergther slammed into the ground in front of Arthur, his red eyes angrily glaring at the group.
Pulling it's head up, he slowly opened up his mouth, "RAUWWW!", with a loud roar, the knights ear drums exploded on the spot, blood seeping from their ears, as they fell to the ground.
The woman fell to her knee and grunted in great pain, Arthur slowly walked passed Mergther and stood before the woman.
"Tell me, what is your name and title?"
She slowly looked up and bowed before him, "are you truly of Blackfire descent?".
"I am, look at that guy, does he not prove it"
Looking back up she pulled out her sword and placed it diagonally before him, "I am from house Rowan, my name is Renalla, my house has always been a starch follower of the Blackfire family, until we pledged ourselves to the Baratheon's, it just so happens, I haven't pledged myself yet..".
Looking back up, she spoke with devotion, "please make me you're knight and lover, I'll bear you the strongest offspring".
"Heh!, you dare offer yourself to my master!, you're nothing but a weakling!".
"Relax Mergther".
Arthur reached down and took off the woman's helmet, he raised his brow after seeing her face, blue eyes and black hair.
"Am I not to your liking?, is it my height?", her eyes grew complicated, she was six foot two, she was rather tall for a woman, her brows knitted together and she placed the sword towards herself this time.
"Wait!, fine I agree, you will be my knight, you will serve me till death..", he took the sword from her and placed it on her shoulder, "I Arthur, first of his name, hereby declare you my Knight, from today on, you will follow me, bathe with me, take care of my clothes and keep me company, you will die serving me, till you no longer are of use, take this and drink my knight, then you may rise".
Mergther snickered to himself as rose slightly, he didn't want to stay, so he flew off back into he sky.
Renalla stared at the weird looking flask, her eyes landing on Arthur's face, [I see, he must be testing me, but I'm not joking.]
With a swig, she felt nothing wrong, until the intense pain started spreading throughout her body, only for it to disappear just as quickly.
Slowly, she dragged herself up, and clenched her hand tightly, "what?, what is this?", Renalla felt incredible strength surging throughout her entire body.
Slight flames were coming from her hands, but she didn't seemed to have noticed it.
"Good, you've proven yourself, leave these men here, I have no use for them".
"But.., they.."
"I said leave them be, they're useless, I have no uses for them".
"Ye.., yes my lord, as you wish".

Along the walk, Renalla kept glancing at Arthur, until she couldn't hold back from speaking anymore, "my lord, where are we going?".
"I'm, how do you say this, going on an adventure, I have six days of free time now, so I'm making the most of it, got a lot of people to take care of back home".
"My lord, you're accent, it sounds oddly similar to those pirates further south, are you related to them?, you even wear the same type of clothing they do".
"Is that so, then they must be stragglers from my home, people who have nothing or don't feel happy there, can't blame them, the other clans are greedy".
"Clans?, are they the same as great house's"
"Pretty much"
Renalla put her helmet back on, and followed behind him, three days went on like this, of her asking him questions about his life, his family.
Until a giant castle could be seen, several horse men came rushing towards the two, they circled around them and looked them up and down.
"House name?!"
"Pendragon".
"Never heard of it, are you a new house, what's your business here?"
"Looking for a place to stay the night, got any suggestions?".
The horsemen all looked at eachother, each one frowning, "sir!, come with us and you too, tall lady, don't try anything, you'd be chased down for miles, so don't try anything rash".
Renalla pushed forward, her momentum suffocating, she had no idea she was releasing high concentrated mana, "of course, treat us kindly young men".
Renalla looked back and saw Arthur's small smile, so she nodded to the men on the horses, who were trying to calm down their horse.
"Good, this way".
