18 Victory!

It has been 2 month since they began their journey for their war. It took the whole army one month just to reach Stepstones. It wouldn't have taken that long if there were less army. A huge army needs a lot of time to progress. As a result, Arthur wasted one month with his just to reach the Stepstones. Every soldier followed Arthur and Corlys. After all it was them who decided to go into the war.

The other one month passed conquering Grey Gallows. It was relatively easy for Arthur's army to conquer that shitty island. Lord Corlys infromed Arthur that Craghas Drahaar only had 5000 men in the Stepstones after Arthur's declaration of war. Only 1500 men were stationed in this pathetic island. With the five dragons on his side, it was relatively easy. But Arthur knew that Craghas Drahar was harder to kill as usually stays in the cave in fear of Dragons. So, Arthur decided to decimate his soldiers first with the dragons.

The 1500 men who stayed in Grey Gallows were like cannon fodders to Craghas Drahar. They didn't have any formations or cliffs to aid them. In those 1500 men there were barely 500 archers and Arthur told Daemon and Rhaenyra to target those archers first. It was easy after the archers were wiped out. The foot soldiers were no match for the unsullieds and Velaryon soldiers. So far Arthur only had 60 unsullieds killed and 80 injured. Lord Corlys had 250 dead soldiers and 110 injured. As for the Kings Army, they had around 300 dead and 150 injured. Arthus was disappointed with the Kings Army. They lacked tactics and power. So, Arthur decided that he would use them as cannon fodders.

Now they decided to attack Bloodstone. But all the soldiers were hiding. Craghas Drahar made that tactic. Arthur remembered that in the series, Daemon baited them out by an act of surrender. But Arthur didn't want to do that. As someone who died once and suffered loneliness, he doesn't want to die. He was thinking if he should let Daemon do the same thing again. But after some thinking he decided not to do that. Meanwhile, the other lords and their soldiers were getting annoyed. They just wanted to rush in. Arthur tried to find any shortcomings of that trick for three days. But sadly every soldier their hid well. They were planning for an ambush. Even if Arthur had nearly 8000 soldiers, he didn't want to sacrifice them at a larger margin. But the other lords and soldiers couldn't wait anymore.

" If you want to go and die, be my guest. I won't stop you. But don't expect me to help you if you do such reckless move."- Arthur shouted loudly at all these cannon fodders who in response got silent.

Even Arthur didn't like this place and wanted to go home. He thought he could bait out some soldiers. But they hid too well. So, Arthur decided to use his strengthen magic secretly to Ancalagon, Dreamfyre and Syrax. He already made up his mind that he would attack head on but with Dragons. With these magic, the Dragons wouldn't get hurt. He didn't really think that he could use it upon other beings. But as he used more of his strengthen magic, it got a buff. Arthur didn't want others to know about his strengthen magic. It was because the army would want Arthur to use it and avoid casualties. But Arthur didn't want to cast magic for the whole army because it was troublesome. Only Rhaenyra knew that Arthur could use strengthen magic. She was delighted that she could fight alongside her husband and help in the war. Rhaenyra didn't became the badass she was due to Arthur's interference and remained as a brat. She knew that this event would give her and her husband nicknames. Lord Corlys and Daemon wanted to stop their madness. But with just one look of assurance from Arthur, they stopped doing so. Apparently, Daemon decided to come. So, Arthur made a new plan. Arthur saw a cave and he knew that it was the place Craghas Drahar resided in. There were 2 huge cliffs there. So, Arthur guessed that the Archers must be there because he saw many corpses struck with arrows on that place. Arthur could see that there many wooden barrels and stuffs there. So, he knew that the Archers shot from that place. So, he told Rhaenyra and Daemon to attack the right cliff while he with Ancalagon and Dreamfyre would attack the left cliff. Meanwhile, the 8000 soldiers would attack the cave and bring the foot soldiers stationed in the cave. He knew that Craghas Drahar was a coward and would stay in the cave. That's why Arthur decided that he would go to the cave with Daemon after the battle starts. It took Arthur along with all of his soldiers 2 weeks to get close to the battlefield without getting shot.

As planned, Arthur alongside Rhaenyra and Daemon with their Dragons attacked the cliffs. The Dragons burned all of the barrels that were in both side of the cliffs. Soon, screams of agony were heard. Listening to that, Lord Corlys along with Laenor and the army proceeded for the battle.

Arthur saw that the Archers revealed themselves after they saw that sneaking wasn't an option.

"Zālagon zirȳ (Burn them)"- Arthur shouted at Ancalagon and Dreamfyre. The two of them were quite in sync. Almost all of the archers on the left side was burned to death. During that time, Arthur could see Caraxes and Syrax doing their job well. It took Rhaenyra and Daemon a long time to kill all of the archers because their Dragons had less powers than Ancalagon and Dreamfyre.

Ancalagon after seeing the Archers killed decided to feast on the bodies. Arthur knew that there was atleast 2000 archers in total in both of this cliffs. While Arthur rode Dreamfyre and went to assist Lord Corlys who was fighting an army of 2500. He saw Craghas infront of the cave entrance. They both glared at each other. Now, Arthur knew that Corlys was misinformed. Craghas didn't have 5000 soldiers. He had nearly 6000 or more soldiers in total. But Arthur knew that this war is already done. He and Daemon jumped off their Dragons and started killing men left and right. Both were unstoppable and had good synargy. Daemon didn't have magic like Arthur so was cautious. But Arthur, like a mad man started killing them all. After a long time, Arthur could see around 200 enemy barbarians infront of him while he had approximately 5100 remaining.

The remaining barbarians surrendered but Arthur told Corlys to kill them all. He and Daemon went inside the cave with nearly 300 unsullieds. He was greeted by the traps set by Craghas. Arthur now hated him more. He could see the enemies coming for his head. But sadly all they last saw was his laugh before they were burned alive due to Arthur's magic. Daemon was a little bit shocked that Arthur's fire magic was this powerful. It was like a dragons fire. It turned any enemies into ashes. Soon, the enemies whole army was dead and only the infamous Craghas Drahar remained. His body was full of injuries.

"The triarchy will never let you go. They will find you and take revenge for what you have done."- Craghas said in his dying voice.

"Let them come. They will soon join you. I won't let you be alone in the afterlike."- Arthur told to Craghas before cutting his head off.

Arthur went outside with the head on his hand. He let his army see the head.

"The war is over. We achieved VICTORY!!"- Arthur shouted at the army. They in response joined Arthur in the shouting. Soon, the whole island started shaking due to their voice.
