Chapter 61: The Iron Bank
After the meeting was done Alexander went to copy all the books in the citadel. He was going to need them in his tower of knowledge.
He cast a wide area disillusionment charm and got to work. He copied every book and sent them to his pocket dimension. It took him a whole day to do that.
Then it was time to explore. He checked out for any secret entrance. There was one he found that led to the basement. In the basement, he found many human and Dragon skeletons.
~The earlier Maester must have been interested in Dragons.~
Then there was a vault. Cobwebs indicated that it wasn't opened in a long time. He entered and found many more books. Most of them were about different kinds of magic. Many were about water magic which was thought to have become extinct because of the bloody Valerians and their dragons. The water magic belonged to Rhoynar that used to live beside the river Rhoyne.
~The Order of Maesters must have been trying to rid the world of magic. So much good magic was lost and what's left behind is blood magic and dark magic which does more harm than good.~
Alexander took away all the books. Among the books was also a book for healing with water magic. Then there were also some rare old currencies and worthless things.
After emptying the Vault, he put lots of Wildfire in there with an attached timer. It would explode in 1 year. All of Westeros probably already knew that he was constructing a mighty tower, completing it in 5 months was crazy but still possible. As long as he used the right illusions.
When he was going out of the citadel, he saw Arch Maester Marwyn waiting for him.
