Battle of wills

The vreion envoy left the shores of Meidvere rather early, and this made everyone wonder what the new tension could bring for Meidvere as well as the south.

Lord attica ,lord attica!

“What is it ,why the fuss

I went into the cell this morning to serve aerys food,but then I found his chains loosened and his no where to be found, and his clothes covered in cleared out of his room

The All father of Meidvere was in a state of shock. His grandson, Aerys, had disappeared, leaving only his loosened chains and empty room behind. Attica knew that the weight of the village's fate now rested solely on his shoulders. He turned to his father, the aging Author, and said, "We cannot depend on the mercy of Trevor Vreion. We must forge our own path."

With a newfound sense of urgency, Attica set forth to rally the villagers. He told them that the time had come to stand up for themselves and their future. They could no longer be dependent on the whims of others. The villagers, once cowed by the power of the Vreions, began to believe in themselves and their strength.

Soon after, Attica led a group of the bravest villagers to seek out Aerys. But they found no trace of him,whispers filled the village that he had taken off because of shame and the hate of his grandfather

Attica knew that time was running out for their small village weeks passed by and aerys was still no where to be ffound, he feared his death or worse his anger towards the vreions. He could no longer ignore the signs that Trevor Vreion would eventually return, this time with an army. The people of Meidvere needed to be prepared.

As the days passed, Attica began to train the villagers in the art of war. They practiced with makeshift weapons, using their knowledge of the surrounding terrain to their advantage. The once-peaceful village was now buzzing with activity and purpose.

As the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, the people of Meidvere began to rebuild their lives without the heavy hand of Trevor Vreion and House Vreion looming over them. They worked together to cultivate their fields and tend to their livestock, no longer fearing the threat of being raided or forced to part with their harvests.

The village flourished under Attica's leadership, and he proved to be a fair and just ruler, always putting the needs of his people first. He knew that they had to depend on each other and their own strength to survive and thrive.

Meanwhile, the people of the south had taken notice of Meidvere's new found resistance, and this motivated the south.

Travels from the south to the east takes weeks ,and months the vreion convoy was still at sea after leaving for Meidvere, this time heading to the North for its dues.”lord trevor ,i’ve been meaning to ask you, every night I hear noises at the base of the ship like a squealing sound and sometimes a forced pull ,do we have an animal on board me lord?

Captain jora,concern yourself with nothing of that ,just concentrate on getting the fleets to the north ,my brother expects our return by a fortnight. Noon came and trevor stepped out of his chambers and proceeded downwards to the basement of the ship, this has been an occurrence for few weeks now.

Trevor proceeded to darkest corner of the basement pacing about back and forth and then begins to speak ,”In my family we are woriors,woriors of vigour and strength it takes years to reach my rank .It should be known by know the vreions are man made Gods ,we fear nothing, we never loose a battle always returning alive taking the heads of our enemies as trophies and you!….”he said taking the torch and pointing it to a corner revealing

a huddled mass of chains and rags. It was Aerys, alive but trapped and bound.bleeding hungry and weak, his eyes widened in terror as he realized the truth. Trevor continued, " Dare tell me you would have mine ,a village rat ,a scum a seasoned slave ,up against a vreion, Trevor!vreion. You will always remember this moment, Aerys. You are alive because I want to show you the power of the Vreions. You will be released only if you vow to obey and serve us for the rest of your life. Your family's fate rests in your hands, boy."

Aerys trembled, his mind racing with thoughts of betrayal and redemption. He knew that he couldn't allow the Vreion family to continue their tyranny over the people of Meidvere. With a deep breath, he mustered all his strength and defiance, saying, "No, Lord Trevor. I will not bow to your family's tyranny or serve as your pawn. You have no power over me,I am blood and I am fire ,and this I promise you by my father and his fathers before ,that you will kneel to this little man ,you will plead for your life,grovel at my feet like the pig that you are and i would watch…,watch you bury your face in mud and i will stick my sword down through your spine and cutt off your head and feed it to the beast. You ,your house and your king ,i will gut you all!! “Aerys said with blood draining from his lips and touching his teeth, his face

contorted in rage as he vowed revenge against the Vreion family.

Lord Trevor's eyes widened at Aerys' defiance, but he quickly composed himself. "You truly have no idea what you're up against, boy," he hissed. "My family has ruled for generations, and we will continue to do so. If you try to stand against us, we will tear you apart and make an example of your village. Do not forget, we are the ones who hold the power. You are nothing more than a pawn in our game.”

But Aerys only laughed, a cold, bitter sound that echoed through the dark basement. "I have seen the fear in the eyes of your ancestors, Lord Trevor, and I have felt the weight of your so-called power. You are nothing but a coward who hides behind your army and your gold. I will not be swayed,in fear of extinction you need us “aerys said with a gaggle, we do not need you!”his voice deepens.

For your insolence, I will burn your cities ,your villages, rape your women, kill your children and bury your fathers alive and burn your sisters naked…I will bring Meidvere and the south to thier knees a d you will look back at a land that was once a home ,and all you will see is ashes and bones and all of this would be the fault of a bastard slave.i will show you true power you aerys, house of nothing will awe in it.

The The air in the basement was thick with tension as the two men stared at each other, locked in a battle of wills. Trevor, still unable to believe the audacity of the slave before him, could not help but feel a shiver of fear run down his spine.

"You underestimate the power of the Vreions, Aerys," he hissed, his voice echoing in the dark as he walked away taking the light with him.Dawn came and the vreion ships arrived at the docks of the

The pride lands are a vast expanse of rolling green hills, dotted with tall trees and lush vegetation. In the distance, majestic mountains rise up to meet the endless blue sky.

The pride lands were a vast expanse of green, stretching to the horizon. In the distance, the sun glistened off the shimmering waters of the bay, and the tall buildings of the city rose like monuments to their namesake.

The pride lands were vast and sprawling, with rolling green hills and towering trees as far as the eye could see. In the distance, Trevor could see the grand castle of House Aerys, a symbol of their power and wealth.

The pride lands are a developing city ,far ahead of thier northern counterpart. Trevor was greeted by the royal family of the pride lands ,his cousin Jamie vreion and his wife courtney vreion. With his cousin in control of the major leading land in the North thier influence thier is unprecedented.

The sit of power and the previous royal family were ousted by the vreions,when thier daughter courtney innocently fell for the charms of Jamie and they got married, once married, to her father it felt like a way to ensure peace in the pride lands but in no time jamie rose against them murdering every single member of her household including her father lord Steven of house trove.he then seized power with aid of the vreion army and now control every corner of the pride lands and by far the north.And his wife is treated as a slave and confined to her room like a prisoner.

The royal family of the Pride Lands watched as Lord Trevor approached their faces betraying their unease. Jamie's grin widened as he clapped Trevor on the back. "Cousin, it's good to see you. The Pride Lands are thriving under our rule, and the North has never been more unified."

Trevor forced a smile. "Congratulations, Jamie. I see you have your hands full here." He glanced down at Courtney, who was standing next to her husband with her head bowed. The sight filled him with anger and sadness.

Jamie chuckled. "Courtney is well taken care of," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "She's just a little too... delicate to be running around the castle. But don't worry, Trevor. She's treated and well

Lord Trevor, seeing the potential of his cousin Jamie's influence, vowed to maintain their control over the pride lands and the North. Their ultimate goal: to conquer all of Meidvere, bending its people and the south to their will. The Vreion family's power continued to grow, with the hearts and minds of the citizens in their iron grip.

Meanwhile, Aerys, still chained and captive in the Vreion's basement, contemplated his next move. He knew that if he didn't ,”As this thought crossed his mind two guards came in and unchained his legs so he could walk ,and moved him outside to where the people of power stood ,I have a gift for you Jamie “Trevor said

What is it?

A suvioner my dear cousin, this is aerys my prisoner, now yours please ensure he always remembers the might of our power as he is your keep. As you wish lord trevor, take him to the dungeon “jamie said.
