Chapter 146 - Home sweet home (VII)
"Act like a pawn, High Sparrow. Be killed in the face of the conspiracy I have planned solely to kill you." Queen Daenerys I Targaryen thought, looking at High Sparrow with a gentle smile.

With Daenerys' orders, the execution of the five men began without any delay. The executioner didn't use his sword to kill them, but pulled a simple lever, causing the wooden floor to collapse.
At the same moment, the five men instinctively struggled. After all, the human brain was programmed to stay alive even in the worst possible conditions. Even though these men had accepted death, their bodies didn't and they tried desperately to breathe.
In the end, the five of them agonized for a few minutes before finally suffocating to death in front of the watching crowd.
Aurane nodded with satisfaction as he watched them die. He only wished that King's Landing was in even more chaos so that he could earn more merit. However, with the presence of Daenerys and the High Sparrow in the city, the riots gradually calmed down.
The thieves, murderers and rapists were killed outright, and their heads were still on carts, creating a truly shocking and terrifying scene.
However, Aurane noticed that, as the days passed, there was no movement on the part of the clergy, almost as if they had accepted that King's Landing had changed owners. But Aurane knew: how could the most arrogant group of people on the continent lower their heads?
The calmer things got, the bigger the wave that would come his way. It was like the sea: only when it was calm were the waves still forming.
RHUAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!
A loud, powerful roar echoed above the city. Aurane, who was patrolling King's Landing, looked up and, instead of Queen Daenerys' black dragon, a bronze dragon could be seen flying overhead.
