And the the Oh, As her brother, Egon, struck out towards Heron Hall and her sister Rainy struck out towards the stormlands.

Queen Viseña departed for the Vale on Vaguar.

It was ruled by Queen Regent Shara Arran, whose son King Ronald, was not yet of age. She had tried unsuccessfully to become

Aegon's third wife, and now she prepared for war. Banters were called, defenses mounted, and allies outside of Westeros were sought and secured.

In many ways, the Vale is the most difficult kingdom to invade. The bloody gate saw the defeat of several iron-born invasions in the time of King Hallich Hoare, not to mention countless others in the eons prior,

which is why the Targarians didn't send an army at all.

The invasion would begin with air and sea power.

With Vessena and Vegas came the new royal fleet, mostly consisting of the ships of House

Valarian, led by the Lord of Driftmark and Master of ships Damon Valerian.

Vesena and Vegas and the Valerians invade the Vale.

It's Valar Rerreides.

together column here. We should have included a lot of fives in this episode too to match up with the V's.

Oh yes yes this episode is not Roman how often do you think about the Roman
