Chapter 10: Chapter 9
The First Men form a shifting quilt of small kingdoms across Westeros south of the Wall, gradually coalescing into larger kingdoms. The so called Legendary heroes of this time period slowly started Housed of other own, all of them would be the ancestors of the Great Houses that rule the Seven Kingdoms in later centuries.
Bran the Builder may have ruled the North from Winterfell was sort of a high-king.
Garth the Gardener builds Highgarden and settled in the fertile fields of the Reach.
Elden Dayne was travelling with his family and group to find the right place to start his kingdom too.But was was having a hard time with finding one, since many good and fertile lands were already occupied.
Both Bran and Garth were avid believers of Eru and friends since studied magic together under the children of forest.They had a vision of Eru calling them,so they both came to Ancient Gods temple created by the Children of Forest and Giants to pray for success of their respective kingdoms.Since they were only starring out for such to huge mission.
When they prayed, Eru appeared before them he was in his translucent ghost like figure.
Which made both of them kneel before him.Eru smiled and said"It seems that rest of your group has gone on there endeavors."
Brandon spoke up"Yes, my Lord."
Brandon told about Lann the Clever swindles House Casterly out of Casterly Rock and its rich gold mines using nothing but his wits,(becoming the founder of House Lannister.)
Durran Godsgrief was building the impregnable fortress Storm's End, founding House Durrandon (ancestors of House Baratheon).
Eru hummed and said"All of you have bright futures."
Garth and Bran we're happy to hear this, Eru continued"I will give additional gift to all of you, since you both have done great things during the war."
Eru blessed Bran and said"I will bless North will abundant game and blessed land for bountiful harvest.You will be provided with crops they will be able to grown even in the coldest seasons."
Bran was happy,since he was worried about how people will survive in the North.But now that was okay.
Eru smiled and said"I will leave you a protector for North, he will stay by the shivering sea and only take orders from one chosen by Ulmo himself.A mark of trident will appear on the chosen one."
From the most came a massive white dragon with pronounced, mammoth-like tusks it comes and rests benevolently on the banks, his stately countenance like that of a lion surrounded by his pride or wolf with a pack.For now it was the size of two elephants, since it was young.
Bran looked at the beast in awe,while a mark of Trident appeared on his arm signifying his part as chosen.
Eru warned"There will be times when there is no chosen ones, so he will go into slumber...Also Fenris to guard the North, also remember he is not yours to order around.He only guards the North as a whole and when it needs it."
Bran was happy and okay with it and asked"My Lord, I have question about the wall."
Eru replied"I know, you don't have numbers to defend the wall."
Bran gave a nod, while Eru gave the answer"Give people befits like small reduce in tribute and small part of land given to them for guarding the wall.I will also bless the wall to make sure there is not issue for people to live their."
Bran nodded again he was happy with results and wanted to employ this when he gets back.
While Eru turned to bless Garth"You and your father were immensely helpful in taking care and healing everyone, so I will give you this magical seed."
Garth was happy, but then he got information. about what the seed was capable of the magical tree was named Yggdrasil, which provides fruit every 50 years and it can cure every disease or even boosts physical capabilities.Also to make sure no one steals it there is magical shield around it and only selected member of Gardner family could retrieve it(He or she is selected by Yavanna.)So it is impossible to get it even if someone is able to get into there family by marriage.
Garth was happy and knelt before the Eru, but Eu telepathically warned him"Make sure to not let anyone know about this until you are strong enough.I will also provide you will a guardian for the tree."
At first Garth was worried about enemies, but soon signed in relief hearing who only his bloodine and someone personally selected by Lady Yavanna could get the fruit.The added bonus was mighty guardian guarding it.
Eru had plans to give something similar to Ladon from Percy Jackson as Guardian to them.He added"Just like Bran,your family will have a chosen one by Yavanna.The person will have a mark on them."
Eru smiled at both of them and said"Both of you must stay strong together.There are harder times coming in the future, so you must brave it together."
Garth and Bran seriously nodded, both already had plans of making alliances with each other.
There alliance and dynasties would continues as House Gardener, though Garth's numerous descendants also found many other vassal Houses throughout the Reach.
Bran started building the castle of Winterfell, founds House Stark and the Night's Watch, which employed men who were given benefits in return for guarding the wall.
But Starks till have civil war after the death of Bran and his son, who also had the mark of Ulmo.But Ulmo did not choose anyone in the next generation because of finding one capable enough to control the beast.
Before rivals kept a distance because of fear of the Bewilderbeast.it was mainly from there rivals the House Bolton, who revolted but it was completely squashed with time.
While Eru now looking for of Elden Dayne, who was the last hero that did great things during the war.He was in pinch, since they were not able to find a good land to settle, Elden was now going to a temple built in south of Westeros.
