Chapter 14 - confrontation

Arthur went downstairs and saw marelyn cleaning a table "I need to talk with you"

"I'm working Arthur, if you have something to say, say it now"

"I want to talk to you privately upstairs" Arthur gave her a serious look

Marelyn frowned "come on then"

When they reached his room, Arthur shut the door and locked it, went over to his bed, and picked up a candle.

"is it true," Arthur said

his mother looked at him "What is"

"I heard everything, tell me is it true"

Marelyn looked down at her feet "Y-yes'

" Why," Arthur said angrily "why am I here and not in Westeros"

"Arthur they would've killed you"

"Your talking nonsense," said arthur

"You're not a Targaryen, Arthur"

Arthur looked at his mother then at the candle

"I am a Targaryen," Arthur said as he placed his hands on top of the fire

marelyn was gonna stop him, but she saw he wasn't feeling any pain.

"that isn't what I meant"

"What did you mean then!!" Arthur yelled as he extinguished the fire with his fingers.

"You're not a Targaryen, but a blackfyre"

'π‘©π’π’‚π’„π’Œπ’‡π’šπ’“π’†?;

"What do you mean?" said arthur confused by her words

"sit down arthur ill explain"

meralyn explained his heritage, she told him about daemon blackfyre and the blackfyre rebellions

She told him about his mother Serra blackfyre and how she was forced to leave the city because of a man named illyrio mopatis

"W-who was my father?"

meralyn looked at arthur and said "When Serra was showing signs of pregnancy, I told her who was the father, she said a man came to her, he had silver hair and violet eyes proclaiming that he was the infant son of aerion Targaryen, Serra said that she didn't want to sleep with him at first, but he charmed her and after one night she got pregnant and the man left, never to be seen again"

Meralyn looked down sad "She drank moon tea with tansy to get rid of you but you wouldn't go"

"she drank it day and night, but she drank too much, I came to her side asking why she wanted him gone, She said her child was gonna die like the others. . .,"

meralyn stopped "Arthur you see Serra was . . . like me and had many children but they all died after birth"

Arthur thought of this and shed a tear, not because of sadness but because of joy,

joy that he lived

meralyn continued "After seeing that moon tea and tansy didn't affect her baby, she decided to keep you. . ." Meralyn stopped

"what happened!" Arthur said

Marelyn looked down "Arthur have you ever wondered where you got that scar from"

Arthur was dumbfounded "from the sealords menagerie?"

"no Arthur the one near your heart"

Arthur took off his shirt and looked at his chest he saw a big scar from the top left of his chest to the bottom right and by his heart was a small scar "That one?" Arthur said pointing at it

"yes that one"

Arthur didn't know how he had gotten a scar like that "how did I get it?"

marelyn looked down with tears in her eyes "not even a minute after you were born. . . you were stabbed right in front of your mother's eyes by one of illyrios assassins-"

Arthur cut her off "how am I not dead? you lie"

Meralyn touched his scar "I do not lie arthur, I was there when it happened, I do not know how you live, for I had not the chance to talk to Serra about that"

"Why did he want me dead?" Arthur said

"I do not know arthur"

"Where is my mother now?" Arthur asked curiously

"She is in pentos with that pig"

'𝑷𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒐𝒔;

meralyn grabbed arthur by the shoulders "Promise me child, promise me that you won't tell anyone about this"

"I promise"

"Good, now I have to go back to work"

As she headed out arthur thought about illyrio, his mother, and his father '𝒅𝒐 π’Š π’˜π’‚π’π’• 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆 π’Œπ’Šπ’π’ˆ; Arthur thought about the war a year ago, ',𝒓𝒐𝒃𝒆𝒓𝒕 𝒃𝒂𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒐𝒏, 𝒖𝒔𝒖𝒓𝒑𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 π’•π’‚π’“π’ˆπ’‚π’“π’šπ’†π’π’”, π’˜π’Šπ’π’π’Šπ’π’ˆ 𝒕𝒉𝒆 π’„π’“π’π’˜π’ π’ƒπ’š 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒕, π’Š 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 π’“π’‰π’†π’‚π’ˆπ’‚π’“ π’•π’‚π’“π’ˆπ’†π’“π’šπ’†π’ π’…π’Šπ’†π’… 𝒂𝒏𝒅 π’‰π’Šπ’” π’”π’Šπ’ƒπ’π’Šπ’π’ˆπ’” π’•π’“π’Šπ’†π’… π’†π’”π’„π’‚π’‘π’Šπ’π’ˆ π’ƒπ’š π’”π’‰π’Šπ’‘ 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒂 π’”π’•π’π’“π’Ž π’‰π’Šπ’• π’•π’‰π’†π’Ž 𝒂𝒏𝒅 π’•π’‰π’†π’š π’…π’“π’π’˜π’π’†π’…, π’“π’‰π’†π’‚π’ˆπ’‚π’“π’” π’„π’‰π’Šπ’π’…π’“π’†π’ π’…π’Šπ’†π’… 𝒂𝒔 π’˜π’†π’π’. . . 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒔 π’Žπ’†, 𝒃𝒖𝒕 π’Šπ’Ž 𝒂 π’ƒπ’π’‚π’„π’Œπ’‡π’šπ’“π’†, 𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒏 π’Šπ’‡ π’Š 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒓. . .

This put a lot of stress on Arthur.

he went to sleep since tomorrow would be his name day.
