Chapter 76: R'hllor
Alexander stood outside the Red temple of R'hllor in Asshai. It was a beautiful city now, the sun was shining, the buildings were white. Though the streets were still empty.
He slowly walked and entered the temple. He was surprised by all the red color everywhere. The floor, walls, ceiling, furniture, curtains. They were all red.
~They sure have a weird fetish.~
"For the night is dark and full of terror, welcome to the shelter of great R'hllor." A priest came to greet him.
Alexander quickly but grudgingly looked in their minds and he was more than disgusted by what he found.
All the red color he saw around him was made by the use of blood. The blood of the people they sacrificed.
Now, he was facing a dilemma. He couldn't deal with them as he did with the House of Undying. The faith of the lord of light was spread throughout Essos. There were thousands, if not millions, of followers. Even if he killed all the priests, he can't just kill all the worshippers too. So, he needed to improvise and overcome. And even is he killed R'hllor, another demon would take his place someday if God's equilibrium theory was to be believed.
He looked around and only saw one guy, he made the guy fall unconscious and then called out loudly.
"R'hllor, come down here or else I'll tell father," He threatened.
