Jon Arctic POV
Arcti Realm, nds beyond the wall, 295 AC. a week after.
---------------------------------------
The day finally arrived, Jo his dwelling armed with his eldeal armor, exiting that peet up with his wives, also properly dressed for the journey.
"Finally, Jon!" Arya pined by his side, eager to depart.
"Don't be so hasty, Arya, let's go," Jon said ahe women, there was only her here, and the farewell would be at the port.
Exiting the sacred woods, they each took a mount, Jon rode Ghost, almost 3 meters tall, while Arya had another wolf of 2 meters, and Ygritte rode a shadow cat that Jon had given her, as he did with Seryna, and Seryna had the same mount for the occasion.
They joined a group of royal guards, all armored with the fi designs from Artica, giving an appearahat would even make the golden cloaks blush. After they started moving, they finally headed to the port.
The Arti popuce, knowing their king would depart, formed a crowd to watch the procession while Jon and his queens were surrounded by royal guards. Uhe Seven Kingdoms, the Arti royal guard system was made up of 50 members, none of whom were deprived of starting families. However, there was an oath in front of the grand weirwood, that they would never harm those they swore to proteless it led to the destru of the kingdom, an oath that would echh the ages, preserving the kingdom even before the royal family.
In their armors, besides beiiful, there were inscriptions that were the foundation of them all, their gods, their nd, and the royal family, in order of importahese 50 people were chosen iail, raising history and potential, Jon had made potions avaible that ged them, making even more powerful warriors. This group was also made up of 40 humans, 10 dwarfs, and 10 giants. Besides the royal guard, there was also the prote guard, where the number was rger and the races were more banced.
Arya seemed the most excited, she waved to the crowd joyfully, and many shouted at the girl they had known for her pranks over the st years. The route tinued until they reached the port on the east side of the kingdom as they passed through a tral avenue. Arriving at the port, 200 ships were almost ready to depart as the men made the final preparations.
After clearing the way, Jon dismounted from the armor of phantoms ao speak with the dwarf responsible fistics by Thor's side.
"How are things?" Joioned.
"My king!" The dwarf excimed and bowed his head down as a salute, as did Thor, but no one kneeled. "Almost everything is ready, we just o fill the stock of your main ship with gold," he said while pointing to the men loading carts with gold ingots. Jon didn't turn them into golden dragons precisely because he had to put Arti resources into other areas, and he hadn't yet formuted his entire pn for the Bank of Artica while the ey didn't bee something on in Artica.
"I see..." Jon was satisfied seeing the amount of gold being loaded.
The mines opped providing resources, the true north had never been explored before, but the geological structure here was quite special. Artica, located to the north of the ti, is characterized by its varied topography, with a mountains, deep valleys, and a subsurface ri quartz and feldspar. This position is the result of volid teic activities that occurred millions of years before the current era, shaping the ndscape and the mineral substrate of the true north.
The deposits of gold, silver, and copper in Artica are associated with hydrothermal veins, processes in which hot water and mineralized solutions rise through cracks in the earth's crust, cooling, and depositials along geological faults. These processes are on in areas with a history of volic activity even in the midst of a froze, where the heat from magma warm underground fluids that dissolve minerals from surrounding rocks, transp them to pces where mineral veins form.
Oher hand, the formation of signifit iron deposits typically requires different geological ditions, often associated with sedimentary basins where iron be deposited in rge quantities over millions of years through the accumution of iron-rich sediments in aquatic or coastal enviros. In Artica, the ditions for the formation of such sedimentary basins were limited due to the predominance of volic activity aonients that favored the formation of metallierals but did not create the necessary enviro fe iron deposits.
Furthermore, the presence of quartz and feldspar in the soil of Artidicates a more acidic geological enviro, which is not ducive to the preservation of iron in rge quantities, as the acidity lead to the dissolution and dispersion of iron ions, preventing the formation of trated deposits.
But this was not a problem, although iron was still scarce, they could open various mines, and Jon mao arm a rge part of the army, although Eldeal was still being produced.
Jon mao open more than 250 extra points throughout the region with my powers that could easily sense resources from the soil.
Jon gave a small smile seeing the ingots shining uhe mid-m light. "I always wondered how the Lannisters would react if they khat an individual find gold in the soil in any region sihey boast about owning the most lucrative mines ieros. Over these years, we extracted a lot of gold and other metals, even though most of our attention was on the Wall, the mines and fes opped operating and arming our soldiers," he murmured internally.
"Hey, Jon! What are you p over there?" Arya approached him at that moment.
"Just thinking about how we use the gold to buy other scarce resources in the kingdom..." Jon ented.
"But 80% of the army has armor, and 15% of that is made of Eldeal!" Arya ented, and Jon smiled at her.
"You really know how to memorize any military information... You should use that memory of yours for other areas too..." Jon ruffled her hair while she pouted.
"Other subjects are stupid..." She murmured.
"Anyway, yes, we have a rge amount of armor, and with our popution, even though small, it is posed of warriors, and we fay kingdom in a fight now, but it's not enough, my dream is to make an imposing kingdom, with all its soldiers armed with my magic armor," he said with a dreamy tone.
The people beyond the wall had a very rge pertage of people who could fight, due to their hard life in this pce, so Artica, even being minuscule pared to the southern kingdoms that have millions of inhabitants, could still have as many men for war as these kingdoms that range from 20, 60 to 100 thousand soldiers.
"'t the dwarves do that?" She asked regarding the Eldeal armors.
"They after I build the fes with magical glyphs that are energized by the grandWeirwood, I hope they make a rge produ of the metal while we are on our journey. But we still need more metal, hence our trade journey, besides better equipping our army with iron and steel, these miners are also very used for the stru of the kingdom," Jon finished his logibsp;
He had been very busy tely and had ahe fes on the West side of Artica just for the stru of his metal, but it still wasn't enough as he wanted, since he was quite busy with the wedding and with his pregnant wives.
"I think I uand... But we also her things, right? We need horses! You always talk about how important horses are in a battle!" She said excitedly, and Jon smiled at the girl.
Indeed, horses were important for the step in Artica, Jon was trying to create new horse species, but still, he o buy a rge quantity of them and of many different breeds. In Artica, their number was only 600, with most being foals or young, with Jon increasing their breeding ii fields o the forests.
There were also the servants Jon modified, those with blue lights in their horns and much stronger and faster, beating any horse in the world, but their numbers were so low that only a few members of the royal guard could afford the luxury of riding them, hoping he could increase their numbers in the ing years.
"Yes... you're right, but besides mihat we will get from the valley or the western nds, horses in the Reach, there are other things we must buy that are scar our kingdom, like sand from Dorne, books from Oldtown," Jon ented.
"Husband. The ship is ready," Ygritte approached Jon and Arya.
"That's good, let's go," Johem towards the prow of the ship they would use, his gaze returning to Ygritte. "Remember, if you feel sick during this journey, I will take you back, I don't want plications with our child," he said in a serious tone.
"Yes, my husband and a ed father, I will do exactly that," she spoke with a sweet smile, pg her hand on her belly. Jon wasn't worried about Seryna, she was naturally powerful, even before the potions, but Ygritte was aory, as he saw she was more affected by the pregnancy, despite not even a moon passing siheir child began to grow inside her.
Their ship was gigantic, rger than the rest of the fleet, Jon, thanks to the knowledge of the gods with the vision of various ships in several eras through green sight, built something that had never before been seen in the world.
He wao build a ship of Eldeal, since his metal was lighter than on wood, however, the amount of steel roblem while the army wasn't even equipped with it, so his current project was made of wood. But even though his ship was the rgest, that doesn't meaher 200 would be small, after all, they housed even giants.
He boarded the ship, which e of Carrack designed for bat and logistics. There were 20 s fiants, harpoons that the giants manned from all sides. Jon had a unique naval bat system in the world and his potential enemies and other hostile ships were shocked while being decimated by his system, since his harpoons, besides having a unique range, manned by giants, they were embedded with wildfire at the tip of them with a fuse that set fire to explode a bit after log them onto enemy ships, it was revolutionary.
Looking satisfied at the huge defense systems on the deck of the ship, Jon tinued walking to the other side, where his other ships were ier, waiting for the maio lead them. As mentioned before, everyone in Artica had inexperien navigation, but Jon tried to teach the basics with theory by watg great navigators, one of them in particur was Corlys Veryon, sidered the greatest navigator in the world, a title that Jon pns to surpass in his trade journeys. Despite the inexperience, Jon mao teach a rge number of captains who began to do simutions going from the Arti port to the icy waters of the sea and back to the kingdom. Despite some attacks along the way by other tribes in the region, they were successful. Jon just hoped that everything would go well on his first jouro the southern seas.
"So many ships, they are really beautiful..." Seryna approached her husband while looking at the hundreds of boats.
"Yes, these two types of ships are quite suitable to be the revolution of Artica, the southerners will be filled with envy seeing our maritime fleet..." Jon ented, looking at the boats.
There were two types of ships he developed with the dwarves, carracks and galleys. Carracks are ercial ships with a rge body for st their products and moving the resources he wants to acquire on the jourheir speed always depends on sails and wind.
Galleys, oher hand, are a type of military ship for carrying soldiers. They are faster, and their body is more regur like an arrow. Their speed surpasses that of carracks, as they use, in addition to the wind and sails, warriors often rowing in them.
Thinking about the basic model, Jon modified them, ging their sail structure and shape to cut through the water more easily. Moreover, their wood, unique in the world and produced ii fields, is much lighter and more resistant.
"Even so, I think my husband still doesn't seem satisfied with his ships," Seryna ughed sweetly at Jon's face.
"It's not that I'm unsatisfied. The ships are perfect, however, we only have 200, this port should support 5000 of them, so it seems so empty," Jon ented.
"As always, ambitious. But I like it," Seryna ented with a smile.
"I said I would make Artica the most powerful kingdom in this world, and I will do it without even needing to quer other nds. After all, we have the world's worst eo face; we are humanity's spearhead," Jon ented, referring to the white walkers. They had been very quiet after their battles, but Johey were pnning something big. He just wao be prepared for it at this moment and make his people e out victorious from this fight.
"I bet in 4 or 5 years, we'll have that..." She ented.
"You're n, maybe we should even build new ports around the regiohat time es," Jon ented, imagining all that water ied with Arti ships. He was already pnning to expand the kingdom and have a port both on the west side behind the Fist of the First Men and build the world's rgest ercial port in Hardhome as a bridge so Artica would not be so accessible to visitors. These were pns that had been in his mind since he pnned Artica.
Jon took his attention away from the ships in front of him, turned back to his crew, "It's time to depart! Sound the trumpets!" Jon gave the order to his captain.
"You heard the king! Let's depart!" The man spoke, and a giao a gigantic trumpet, blowing it with force.
The sound owerful, reag not just the port but the east side of the city, the people celebrated, while the ship left the port. Jon looked at them satisfied; he had finally made this kingdom self-sustai had been 6 years, but Artica was funing very well now. His armies were ready to protect them, the wall already provided great prote even though it hadn't reached the 25 meters they po finish. The kingdom's ministers were admiring everything for him, except those who were on his ship to open trade and diplomacy. Jon had fidehat Artica would be fine. Aemon was doing a good job managing education because now there were thousands of children learning the basics every day along with many adults who would be for administrative professions and eveeachers.
Jon waved at his ministers at the port with satisfa, Ghost by his side, since he didn't o put him with the animals.
*ROAAARRRRR*
The sound cut through the celebration as Eragon bid farewell to his father, despite wanting to go along, but Jon couldn't take him, unfortunately. Eragon circled his boat as it moved ahead of the others, towards the sea.
The boat took the lead as it passed through the Arti fields followed by 150 carracks and 50 galleys right behind in the el, he began his first journey as the Arti trading pany, and the world would finally know this isoted kingdom in the desert nds north of the wall.
