Popular Post Lysander Posted November 7, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2023 The first leaves had already fallen. Darth Ataxia sat before the weirwood tree, admiring the beauty and enjoying the crisp air. Winter was coming. Ataxia’s trance was broken by the snapping of twigs and crunching of leaves from behind. "My Lord,” said Lysander, the newest addition to House Stark’s ever growing house, “ships have landed in White Harbor and are sending men up the Knife.” "Whose sigil do they fly?” asked Ataxia, already mentally preparing for a fight. “Their number of ships far surpass the Lannisters, but they aren’t Ironborn either.” "Assemble the men. We’ll meet them at Cerwyn.” House Stark stood strong at the edge of the White Knife, with bannermen and generals all ready for the worst. “It’s a fine day should we come to blows. But as your hand, Ataxia, I’d advise against hostilities” remarked Samani. As if hearing his words, the rowboats appeared. Their masses began to hide the water as if land itself was reclaiming the river. Almost as if by reading the minds of the men on shore, the fleet of boats halted and a single vessel touched the shore, leaving the others out in open water. Three men and a woman disembarked and walked up to the gathered army on the shore. "Greetings!” hailed one of the men. His long coat and gold shoulder pads marked him as the leader, “To whom do I owe the pleasure of speaking to?” Ataxia rode forth with Samani and Lysander at his side. "I am Darth Ataxia of House Stark, Lord of Winterfell and protector of the land you now walk on. To what house do you belong?” "House?” the man looked puzzled. “I am Commodore Alan of the Black Skies fleet. I’m sorry to say that we’ve never seen these lands on our charts before.” The man to his left handed him papers from what appeared to be a toga underneath his sailors uniform. “We’ve been hit with several late fall squalls and have come off course. We saw land and moored off of the port down the river. I was told to come here to seek permission to stay for a while as we repair our fleet.” Ataxia, relieved that battle would not occur, softened his pose. Seeing this, the unknown woman also relaxed, her hand moving away from the hilt of her sword. "Well, you may find sanctuary at White Harbor. You can repair your ships and harbor over the winter. Welcome to Westeros.” Ataxia dismounted and shook Commodore Alan’s hand. "Palsada!” shouted Alan “have the men return to the port and begin repairs and see that our men are available to support. I’m sure our new friends here don’t want us loafing about.” House Black Skies, Ataxia thought to himself. How peculiar. TLDR: House Stark protects the rebuilding of the Black Skies Fleet and Black Skies protects House Stark from the Greyjoys. Both Houses sign an MnDoAP. [I] Mutual Defense Both parties are obligated to come to the defense of the other should they be attacked. [II] Optional Aggression Either signatory may opt to cooperate in the other’s offensive wars, should they so choose. [III] Non-Aggression and Conduct Both signatories are obligated to work in each other's best interest and not conduct nor endorse action against the other. [IV] Sovereignty Both signatories acknowledge and agree to protect the other's sovereignty and exclude themselves from the other's internal affairs. [V] Intelligence Both signatories recognize the role of intelligence in each's security and agree to share information without hesitance or alteration in the spirit of mutual defense. [VI] Non-Chaining In the event a signatory is obligated to defend a third party, Article I becomes Optional. [VII] Cancellation Both signatories are free to cancel this treaty at any time, but must provide a 72-hour notice to the other. These Articles are effective immediately and authorized by the below signatories.
