Chapter 23 Erin Valley

Catelyn was riding a horse, and the Lannister squire had just died of a high fever due to ulcerated wounds. They did not dare to stay, but the child named Cole still went to bury him.

He had the greatest credit along the way. He killed half of the enemies, so no one stopped him this time. Caitlin never believed the stories in the knights' biographies before, but after meeting this child, she believed it.

.

The only people alive now are the old knight Rodrik Cassel of Winterfell, Sir Willy Ward and the bard Marillion. These people clearly stand with her. As for the mercenaries

Bronn had obviously fallen in love with the imp.

The child buried the attendant named Maurice. His face was extremely gloomy, and his whole person was like a silent volcano.

"He has killed so many people that he can no longer bear it anymore," the veteran warrior Ser Rodrik said to Caitlin.

Caitlin frowned, "How could this happen?"

She began to regret that she should not have brought Lannister to the Vale of Arryn so rashly. Six people had already died because of this. She was not hard-hearted, and she originally just wanted to seek justice for her son.

"There seems to be something wrong with your little brother." Bronn reminded Tyrion in a low voice.

He naturally knew that Cole's face was so gloomy all the way that no one should speak. "I'm not blind, so I can naturally see it. What's going on?"

Bronn was a man of skill and courage, but he had to admit that this kid was so fierce that he was like a "warrior" among the Seven Gods.

"Situations like this often happen on the battlefield. You'd better pray to the gods that he won't break out in the next battle, otherwise we may all suffer." He said it very lightly, as if he didn't care.

"You mean, he's suppressing it?"

Bronn nodded.

"What should we do?" Tyrion asked.

Bronn thought for a moment, then broke into a gray smile and said, "Give him a woman."

"Now is not the time for joking, mercenary." Tyrion's face turned dark.

"This is no joke, Lannister. Otherwise, why do you think those guys who have fought in the war are going to prostitutes."

Both of them looked at the only woman present.

"Let's go" Cole got on his horse.

"Man, you should learn to relax." The mercenary smiled what he thought was a kind smile.

"Um."

These words seemed to have no effect. Soon after, the vibration of horse hooves was heard. Cole seemed to be stimulated by the sound. At this time, a hand patted his shoulder, "Calm down, kid. It's just killing a few people."

That's all. Knights are born to fight, so be prepared and fight with all your might."

Cole looked up and saw the old knight Rodrik. He looked tired and his face was pale. He had always been inseparable to protect Mrs. Stark. When he turned his head, he saw Caitlin smiling at him.

What's wrong with him? He asked himself in his heart. Killing made him feel disgusted, but they were all enemies. If he didn't kill them, he would die. He was just protecting himself.

But those wailings and begging for mercy were always lingering in his ears like a nightmare. The first time he killed someone, he felt it was very ordinary, as if he had been used to life and death on the Great Wall, but as death fell on his sword

More and more people came in, and the frequency became more and more frequent, and then he felt something strange.

"Who are you?" A team of armored cavalry flew a blue and white crescent falcon flag.

"It seems we are saved. It's the cavalry of House Arryn." Tyrion said.

"I am Catelyn Stark from Winterfell." Catelyn quickly revealed her identity.

The leading knight was stunned for a moment. He thought it was a team of mountain people, but when he looked closely, he saw a beautiful Andal face, which was somewhat similar to Lady Lysa Tully, the mistress of the Vale of Arryn.

The Alpine clans are all descendants of the ancestors, and there are few such beautiful women. Moreover, she herself said she was a "Stark". How could people from the north come here?

If Tyrion knew what he was thinking, he would definitely correct him, 'The people of the North are also descendants of the First Men.'

"Madam, why are you here?" the knight asked in confusion.

"I ask to see your Duke's wife, Lysa Tully. I am her sister."

After hearing this, the knight quickly saluted and apologized, "Madam, I'm so sorry. I didn't know about your arrival in advance."

"No, this is not your fault, Sir. I just had an emergency and had to come to see my sister. I'm sorry, may I ask you the honorary title of your family?"

"I am 'Donal Waynwood' from the Waynwood family. Please allow me to escort you to and from your journey, madam."

"I know Countess Anya Waynwood, but I wonder how she is doing."

"My mother is doing well."

Caitlin showed a polite smile, solemn yet friendly, like a spring breeze, yet giving off a sense of untouchability.

Donnel is a Blood Gate knight who is loyal to the Arryn family. He speaks with grace and uses words very appropriately.

Tyrion whispered to Cole, "This family has always been known for its etiquette."

They were protected by cavalry in the center and walked slowly towards the mountain pass. The old knight could hardly walk. As they walked towards the fortress, Cole reached out to help Rodrik.

He stopped holding himself up and thanked her softly.

Lady Caitlin also seemed to be very worried about his situation, and quickly asked the Blood Gate Knight Donnel if there were any bachelors in the Fortress.

Donnel shook his head and told her that the maesters had all been summoned to the Eyrie by her sister Lysa.

The fortress was built in a gorge, with watchtowers clinging to the rock walls on both sides. Cole was shocked by the airtight fortifications in front of him. No wonder he had to rely on dragons to conquer the Arryn Valley. With this man, he would be able to defeat all enemies.

The fortress is open and guarded, but I really don't know how to break into it.

Of course, the Arryn Vale joined the Targaryen family not through war, but through peaceful means. However, the dragon played a big role in it.

But after entering the fortress, Cole realized that he still underestimated these bastard guys in Erin Valley. He could only lament that he was still too young.

What greeted them was another Bloodgate knight and Catelyn's uncle, "Brynden Tully" known as the Blackfish. He was a knight that even the Kingslayer admired.

His nickname is also very interesting. I heard that his brother Hoster Tully called him the "black sheep" of the Tully family because of some things, but he retorted and said that he was a "black fish". He shouldered

The black fish emblem on the front made of gold and obsidian is his characteristic, which is exactly the opposite color to the silver sturgeon emblem of the Tully family.

After passing through the Blood Gate Fortress, they entered the Arryn Valley, and their eyes suddenly opened up. They saw farmhouses, fields, fields, blue sky, and towering mountains. Everything was glowing in the morning light, like a peach blossom garden isolated from the world. It was so peaceful here.

It is beautiful, protected by mountains, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the highest mountain range rises to the sky with a spear, which is the mountain known as the "Giant's Spear".

The Eagle's Nest City is located on the Giant's Spear. Between the layers of the mountains, fortresses and checkpoints have been built by the people of the Aylin family. Cole secretly thought in his heart: "They are indeed a group of bastards."

"It's right there, on the side of Alyssa's Tears." Sir Blackfish pointed at the castle and said to Caitlin.

Alessa's Tears is a river flowing down from the Giant's Spear Peak. Cole seems to remember some story, but he no longer remembers it.
