Chapter 16 Korakshu
Jack directly named the young dragon Korakshu.
This is the traditional naming method in the Game of Thrones world. Jack, who is not good at naming, just follows the local customs.
The connection between Jack and Korakshu is far greater than the connection between Dragon Mother and Drogon in the American TV series.
According to Jack's speculation, this should be related to the dragon dream.
The dragon dream is a bridge to deepen the spiritual connection between people and dragons, and the Dragon Mother in the American TV series seems to resist Drogon in the dragon dream.
Drogon's hideous appearance like the Black Death made Dragon Mother think that she was having a nightmare, and this situation did not disappear until Drogon was born.
Moreover, a person can only connect with one dragon through the dragon dream. Daenerys has three dragons, which makes her unable to establish a good connection with her own dragon.
Although Daenerys still truly became Drogon's knight in the end.
But this also caused the three Drogon brothers to have a period of rebellion.
Because of the appearance of the young dragon Korakshu, Jack temporarily gave up the idea of plundering Qarth.
Instead, he prepared to disguise himself as a businessman and take people to Qarth to see the situation first.
The appearance of Korakshuu reminded Jack of some details, that is, Qarth did not seem to be simply controlled by the 13 giants.
So Jack stayed in the sea near Qarth for another month. During this month, he trained Korakshuu almost every day.
Dragon dreams seem to appear only before the young dragon hatches. Before Korakshuu hatched, Jack only entered the dragon dream state once the night before it hatched.
From here, we can also see the blood gap between himself and Daenerys. Daenerys often "had nightmares" after getting the dragon egg.
At noon, the air was visibly hot, and the huge Poseidon sailed towards the dock of Qarth.
Qarth is one of the largest port cities in the known world. All the colors that Vess Toro lacked seemed to have run to Qarth.
Qarth has a separate huge dock for its own guild, and the dock behind the port is for merchant ships from the Free Trade Cities, the Summer Islands and Westeros to dock.
Close to the sea is a huge, day and night trade market.
Wine cellars, warehouses and gambling houses are scattered on both sides of the road, and the northwest of the city is a vast red wasteland.
At this time, the poor and merchants on the dock looked at the giant merchant ship.
Ships below 20 meters are called small ships, which are commonly seen in warships used by pirates and the navy;
Ships between 20 and 30 meters are called medium-sized ships, which are the most common and favored by merchants;
Ships between 30 and 40 meters are called large ships, which have strong transportation capacity and sailing speed, but are expensive, and only powerful merchants can own them.
Ships over 40 meters are called giant ships. Although they have strong cargo capacity, they are expensive and not as cost-effective as large ships.
And giant ships like Poseidon, which are 60 or 70 meters long, can only be said to be very rare.
Only merchants who are rich enough to rival a country will customize one, and most of them are used to carry 13 to show off.
For example, the 13 giants of Qarth, each of them has a giant ship over 40 meters.
But I heard that the ship of the giant Zaro was sold recently.
After parking the Sea Emperor, Jack took 20 Unsullied off the ship, accompanied by Vitelli and Ellie.
After the transformation of the Sea Emperor, the full load was 420 people, and the supplies on the ship were all supplied by other ships.
Among them, there were 70 sailors on the Sea Emperor, 30 logistics personnel, and 320 Unsullied.
Jack only took 20 Unsullied off the ship, and the rest stayed on the Sea Emperor.
After Jack got off the ship, people's attention was once again attracted by the baby dragon in his arms.
"What is that?"
"His ship looks so big, and there are 20 Unsullied with him. Why haven't I heard of his name?"
"Is it a baby dragon in his arms?"
"I don't know, but we will know soon. It is said that the giants have gone to the north gate to welcome the Mother of Dragons. The Mother of Dragons is a descendant of the Targaryen family. We can first see what her dragon looks like!"
Soon, the news of Jack and his party reached the hands of the Qarth royal family in the Thousand Palaces.
Qarth is ruled by the royal family, who manage the city-state affairs in the Thousand Palaces and command the city's defense, including the camel cavalry and a powerful fleet of warships.
The nominal ruler of Qarth is the royal family. In fact, several powerful merchant guilds, including the Thirteen Masters, the Tourmaline Brotherhood, the Ancient Guild of Spice, and some other small guilds, hold the actual power of the city. The military expenses and expenses of the royal family are provided by the guilds.
In other words, the royal family of Qarth controls the army, but the control of the city is under the control of the guilds.
The noble class of Qarth is composed of merchant groups, including the Thirteen Masters.
Recently, the 13th Master successfully annexed the Tourmaline Brotherhood and the Ancient Guild of Spice, and the personnel of the 13th Master will soon usher in a major reshuffle.
Without the internal struggles between the guilds, the royal family of Qarth will no longer have the strength to compete with the 13th Master.
Especially now, the 13th Master bypassed the royal family and went directly to the north gate to receive the mother of dragons who is said to have three baby dragons.
How can this not make the royal family of Qarth think wildly?
Just as Mavis was daydreaming, a servant came to him and reported Jack's situation.
A merchant who looked rich enough to rival a country came to Qarth. This merchant did not belong to the Qarth Chamber of Commerce, and he was holding a creature that looked like a dragon in his arms.
Mavis's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise: "Are you sure?"
"I'm sure, many people have seen it, and the villain has also seen it with his own eyes."
"Hahaha, I, Mavis, am so lucky. Bring him to see me quickly. No, I will see him in person."
Mabius was very excited. If he was lucky enough, maybe the Myers royal family would not have to worry about it next.
The Qarthens were tall and pale-skinned, so they were called Milkmen by the Dothraki.
The popular Qarthen clothing exposes one breast of a woman, while men prefer silk beaded skirts and robes.
At this time, Jack was looking around at the women on the street, including ABC and D.
And because of race, most of them are big and white.
Jack said he still liked this place quite a bit.
And women here don't feel awkward because of other men's gaze.
So Jack can look at it openly.
Ellie and Vitrill looked at the buildings in Qarth curiously.
Qarth has three thick walls. Its shape is a wonder of the world and a symbol of the power of the city.
The outer wall is made of red sandstone, thirty feet high, and carved with various animals;
The central wall is made of gray granite, forty feet high, and carved with lifelike battle scenes;
The interior walls are made of black marble, fifty feet high, and covered with erotic sculptures.
The outer gate is inlaid with copper, the middle gate is inlaid with iron, and the inner gate is inlaid with many golden eyes.
The city's buildings appear in dreamy shades of rose, violet and sepia.
Pass through a bronze arch carved in the shape of two mating snakes, with scales of delicate jade, obsidian and lapis lazuli.
Countless slender spiers stand tall, and each square has elaborate fountains in the shapes of griffins, dragons, and manticores.
Across the city is a huge arcaded street, where the city's ancient heroes stand on white and green marble columns three times life-size.
While Jack was looking at the baby's rice bowl, he was also observing the internal structure of Qarth.
Qarth is not as weak as shown in the American TV series. The outer wall is more than nine meters high.
If you want to plunder Qarth, the outermost dock is the best target.
You can also loot inside the outer wall, but they are poor people and can't grab anything.
As for the central and inner walls, it is basically impossible to penetrate without sufficient troops and siege equipment.
Just as Jack was thinking, a passionate and outrageous voice came over.
"Hello, distinguished guest, I am a royal family member of Qarth. I would like to buy you a drink. Can you?"
