I have a Mount and Blade panel and I kill people in the Game of Thrones
Chapter 147: Letter from Ramsay
When the dragon appeared, all the residents of Winterfell and the prisoners of the Bolton family could not help but prostrate themselves on the ground and kneel before the dragon.
Although this creature made of blood magic and fire has disappeared for hundreds of years, people's fear of it has never diminished.
Through the mouths of the Night's Watch defenders throughout the realm, everyone in Winterfell, including the prisoners of the Bolton family, learned of the oath, or ambition, of Lyon, who owned a dragon.
That is to bring peace to all the people of the seven countries.
According to common sense, the territory of the Seven Kingdoms is vast. Even if we ignore the cold and frozen soil in the north that is not suitable for human habitation, the land productivity is enough to support the lives of hundreds of millions of people.
However, the reality is that the number of people in the seven countries is far less than 10 million, and most of the people live in extreme hardship and danger, walking on a tightrope every day.
They are trapped by poverty and ignorance, their minds are gradually numb and they are unable to struggle.
As for the root cause of all this, the people had no time to delve into it, because their daily lives had been deprived by the lords and nobles, leaving only toil and fatigue, and their personal routines and freedoms were almost gone.
In this era, living conditions were perhaps even darker and more barbaric than in the Middle Ages in previous history.
However, even in such an environment, only the great nobles could barely maintain a relatively decent lifestyle.
But even a king has to live in King's Landing, which is surrounded by dirty and smelly water. There is no need to compare it with Pentos, the richest city in the distant Essos continent. Even the lifestyle of the people of Braavos is several centuries more advanced than that of the people of the Seven Kingdoms.
So, when the residents of Winterfell and the Bolton prisoners learned from the Night's Watch who was the source of all this misery that had caused them.
They were extremely angry.
On the way to the execution ground, Ramsay witnessed many residents of Winterfell, even his former subordinates, throwing rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves and other dirt at him.
He was confused and full of doubts:
How dare these ordinary people treat themselves like this?
What was even more unbelievable to him was that Sansa, the woman he once was, and the other nobles of Winterfell just stood by and watched with indifference.
Although he was tied up tightly with ropes and unable to move, Ramsay could not help but curse:
"I am a noble, how can you humiliate me like this!"
When he was dragged onto the execution platform and Sansa put the noose on him expressionlessly, a twisted anger surged in Ramsay's heart:
"Sansa, as my wife, how can you watch me suffer such dishonorable treatment?"
Hearing this, although Sansa did not quite understand the crowd's reaction, she also had her own ideas. She gritted her teeth and said:
"Ramsay, you are just a lowly bastard, not worthy of being a noble. It is too easy for you to die by the hanging of a noble. When you die, I will curse you to live in the seven hells forever!"
When Sansa thought of the humiliation she suffered at the hands of Ramsay, her face was filled with intense hatred, and she turned and left.
Only Ramsay was left on the execution platform, being cursed and reviled by everyone.
When Leon came in front of Ramsay and asked him his last words in a cold tone.
"Leon, you are just an ambitious person. I have seen through your true intentions. You just want to unify the continent and sit on the throne yourself. Stop putting on that hypocritical coat. You keep saying that you are doing it for the people, but in fact, you are just doing it to satisfy your own selfish desires."
Ramsay's last words were so blunt that Leon felt that it was too easy for him to die like this.
So, Leon thought about it, and said to a night watchman beside him in a voice that Ramsay could hear:
"When he dies, cut off his head and hang it on a mountain near Winterfell, so that he can watch day and night how I fulfill my oath."
……
Inside the Dreadfort, the current Warden of the North, Roose Bolton, summoned his bannermen to discuss the contents of the letter sent by Ramsay.
Roose Bolton's face was carefully groomed, looking clean and tidy, with smooth and flawless skin. His lips were extremely thin, almost forming a line when pursed, giving people a firm and decisive impression.
Despite his gentle appearance, he is actually cold, calculating, and cruel. He always speaks softly and never raises his voice, and this quiet tone often forces the listener to concentrate on his every word.
Roose Bolton had a strange habit of having leeches suck his blood regularly, believing that this would keep him healthy. Therefore, people often jokingly called him "Lord Leech".
Overall, Roose Bolton's face gives people a sense of calmness and sophistication that is not affected by time. Whether he is angry or happy, his expression maintains a unique calmness, as if no emotion can shake his inner determination. The only similarity between him and Ramsay is his pair of icy cold eyes, which reveal an unfathomable chill.
"Did the Night's Watch really say that? To surrender? And to go to Winterfell to plead guilty?"
One of his vassal, Alf Karstark, asked with some confusion.
"Along with the letter was a piece of Ramus' finger. I think his head should be hanging on some unknown height, just as Commander-in-Chief Lyon said."
Roose Bolton spoke in a calm tone, as if the person who died was not his son, but an irrelevant person.
Before the War of the Five Kings, Roose's biological son Domeric Bolton died of a "stomach ailment". He privately suspected that Domeric was murdered by his bastard son Ramsay Snow.
With no other children, Roose brought his illegitimate son Ramsay Snow to the Dreadfort and designated him as his unofficial heir.
Therefore, he did not have much affection for Ramsay in his heart, and chose Ramsay as his heir more out of helplessness.
What's more, his new wife, a woman from the Frey family, gave birth to a child for him.
"My lord, how should we respond? Should we send an army to attack Winterfell in revenge? Ramsay claimed in the letter that the Night's Watch only has two hundred infantry and forty cavalry."
"No, Alf. If the strength of the Night's Watch is only what Ramsay's last letter says, how could they have broken through Winterfell, which is guarded by tens of thousands of people?"
Ramsay's letter did not mention that the forty cavalrymen were all White Walkers, nor did it mention that Lyon had a powerful bow in his hand, nor did it mention that Lyon owned a dragon.
Apparently, until his death, he still wanted to trick his old father.
