[ONE WEEK LATER]

After training for a week, and completely leveling the training grounds to a bulk of ashes and melted swords I decided to take a quick break, with my fire working as it was right now, I didn't have much to train, besides working out ideas on how to use it properly.

"Well, that's it for me," I chuckled, rubbing my sore arm, that Neltharion had hit with his tail.

*Got it, I will go and find new collectibles for my hoard then,* Neltharion nodded, *Do you want me to fly you back to the castle?*

I thought about his proposition for a second, before deciding it would be best to walk back by myself, "It's alright, go do your thing," I replied with a sigh.

*Got it!* Neltharion nodded, and a few seconds later flew away into the horizon, making me wonder if he was scaring people by flying around the country, well, I suppose there is no harm as long as he doesn't kill anyone.

As I walked towards the castle, feeling pretty worn down, I couldn't help but smile, I had progressed more this last week with my fire, than I did a few months ago, I was finally at peace with everything, well… not everything but that was about to change, I was confident I would find a way to defeat this monster once and for all.

And with this tool, things were looking better for me, for I had learned to use fire beyond the capabilities I thought it had, for as it was capable of destroying, it was also capable of healing, being the reason why I had trained an entire week nonstop with Neltharion, learning that I could ignite a different type of flame, that healed my wounds, leaving me with a refreshed feeling, though this power had a limit.

I knew that lethal wounds were an impossibility, when it came to healing them with this, but it was nice to know I could heal simply wounds and ease down the fatigue.

*CAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!*

I turned to the raven that was screaming with all its might, wondering what that hell had just happened, "Is there something wrong?" I inquired the raven as he flew towards me.

*CAW! My king, I'm from Nick Fury's squad! I was sent to the north to oversee the wall, and… caw! The others are approaching, five out of six in my squad were killed, the others are two weeks from the wall!* The raven cawed in fear and agitation.

So soon…. Shit! "Anything you can share about them?"

*They have a dragon… caw… but it's different, it has almost no flesh, and it towers about your sons, caw! That thing is bigger than Neltharion, Qrow and Rhaegal together,* The raven cawed in fear.

A dragon?! …. If it didn't have no flesh it probably meant the dragon the night king had… had died a long time ago beyond the wall, "How did your squad die?"

The raven looked at me, before answering, fear and anger flashing on his tiny eyes, *We were tasked to keep an eye for those monsters… CAW, and out of nowhere as we were getting ready to pass this information, they started attacking us, undead birds everywhere….. We had no choice but to follow the CORN PROTOCOL,*

"The protocol?" I inquired, trying to understand in full the situation.

*If death is unavoidable one must survive at any cost… so that the information is passed…. My brothers fought the undead abominations in the air, buying me enough time to fly away….* The raven had by this point it feathers all ruffled up, *I… CAW! I only survived because I was the fastest among my squad, and they picked me to escape just for that…*

"I will not forget their sacrifice, of that you have my word," I stated, animals or not, they were my people, my most loyal subjects, and I would avenge them.

*Caw! Those words…. Thanks!* The raven cawed, with newfound determination, *I will let the council of animals know,* and with that the raven flew away, leaving me with a ton of shit to process… I had two weeks to prepare.

"Well… let's see if I can keep my record…. And stay undefeated," I muttered as I ran towards the castle.

[COUNCIL OF ANIMALS - 1 hour after]

Animals from different species sat or lay on a field close to the sea, waiting for the council and their representatives to arrive, for the Ravens, there was Roda and Nick Fury, for the Bears, Vladimir and Vodka, for the Hawks, Tony Hawk and Petra Hawk, for the Krakens, Bob the Kraken and for the horses, Asmo and Hirsch.

*The situation is dire,* Vodka growled in worry, *The day we feared has come,*

*We all knew this shit was coming, and now…. We have to face it,* Nick Fury cawed for everyone to hear.

*Fear is the path to defeat,* Roda added.

*We must use the the Island's as a safety haven for the non combatants, the others have no Krakens under their control… we still reign supreme on the water,* Bob added, from the water.

*That's a good temporary solution to that problem," Asmo neighed agreeing with Bob.

*We must focus first on what to do, how can we help the Applebringer?* Hirsch neighed with concern, stomping his hoof on the ground, *We must act, and we must do it fast!*

*Many of us will die… but we must stay strong,* The founder of the council, the first of to be pet spoke, *We must do what we have been doing these past years…. We will fight for our King, and we will die! IF NECESSARY! It is our sworn duty to protect him and his family and we will carry our sworn duty with honor! Blood! And glory!!!!!!!!!!!!* the elder cawed, and soon enough every member of the council was stomping the ground in agreement.

[Daenerys POV]

Ronard came to the castle, agitated… sweating not out of training but… something else, he didn't even saw me as he ran past me… something was on his mind… something bad, and I feared for the worst.

"Ronard!" I called out, stopping him.

"I- sorry, I didn't see you there," Ronard muttered, "We have to get ready, the others are already moving, we have no time to waste,"

The others…. My fears… were right, "I will start retrieving all the weapons we have made, while you call the banners!"

"I will!" Ronard ran, leaving me with a lot running wild in my mind, but there was no time to focus on any of it, I had to act fast, I had to ensure everything went as smoothly as possible for the upcoming battle.

[Jeor Mormont POV]

Time was something I had experienced, I had seen disnaties being destroyed and new kings rising, I had seen my family go from nothing to scum to Royalty…. My life was a full one, I had experienced everything one could ask for.

"Well, this is a nice vacation without people," I chuckled, my last few days of this world, and I was happy…. Happy that my demise would help my grandson…. Even if it was just a bit, even if I only killed a couple of those things…. I would be already doing more than I could possibly achieve staying alive, though I wasn't dying alone.

Aemon, the oldest member of the watch, had decided to stay with me as well, for the same reason, to make his last few moments memorable like mine.

"We are relics of an old time," Aemon commented with a soft smile, "I am glad that I get to go…. Helping my family… our family,"

"The world is pretty small huh? A bear and a dragon, riding this world together," I chuckled.

"A truly magnificent sight…." Aemon smiled.
