Chapter 60: Citadel
They invited him for dinner and gave him an abode for the night. He happily accepted it. The only person he felt irritated with was Cercei. The girl had so much hate in her that he could feel it even from meters away. The only person she really loves is probably her brother. Even that, in the wrong way.
Tyrion was quite scared of him in the beginning but soon came close when he started talking about his adventures North of the Wall with his favorite uncle Gerion.
"Seriously? Giants are still alive?" Gerion exclaimed, while taking a sip of wine.
"Absolutely. I was North of the wall before starting this journey. They have a whole tribe living there. Not just that, they ride giant mammoths. But they still can't break the wall," Alexander said.
For some reason, Cercei took a sigh of relief. She mostly disdained the northerners and thought of them as barbarians but even she accepted that they protected the rest of the realm from wildlings and now these Giants. The wall was a blessing.
"Hahaha... I might really have to make a trip there then." Gerion laughed.
Tyrion felt jealous of his uncle. He also wanted to grow quickly and go on adventures.
"Well, if you go there, go to Jormun's tribe. We have good relations with them," Alexander advised.
"If I remember correctly, I still have a long tooth of a winter lion. They are very huge and have long teeth," Alexander added while looking into his pouch.
