Chapter 77: Memories of Valyria.
While so many people were busy planning and plotting against Alexander. He was busy finding out about his past.
He was currently in Valyria. The whole land was covered in toxic gas. Weird insects roamed the place. The ground had taken a rocky and sharp texture due to the Lava. It was hard to imagine why he would give such punishment to an entire civilization.
He just walked around, exploring things. There were some ruined buildings. He found lots of Valyrian steel weapons too. He didn't know what all the fuss was about. It was just some strong metal. He already knew how to make it. You needed to fuse high-quality metal and obsidian/dragon glass at a very high temperature. Temperatures that can either be achieved by modern mechanical tools or Dragon fire. Though, there was one good thing he found out. If you use magical fire in the process, then the end sword would also have some magic properties.
~Argh, where do I trigger my memories?~
He kept on looking around, in some places he also found disfigured gold. Probably melted due to all the heat. Finally, when he reached the center of the island, he saw a giant castle ruin. Though it was still in better shape than others. The moment he entered, he saw some memories resurface.
[Memory]
1 month before the Doom.
Alexander was on a visit to Valyria. He hadn't been there in a long long time. As he was busy exploring Ulthos.
He was disheartened by what he saw. The people who learned to ride Dragons now considered themselves stronger than Dragons. Instead of creating friendship, they had started to enslave the Dragons with magic.
