[Chapter Size: 3595 Words.]-------------------------------------------**JON POV**Wolfswood near FrostRoar, 290 DC, 3 moons ter.-------------------------------------------He woke up groggy. It's been two weeks since he turned 9 namedays, which made him think he was growing. However, his body still refused to groidly, and Jon had a bit more fatigue than a normal child would.

  Jo some time trying to muster some strength to face the new day. I 6 moons, he had been w and training every day, almost colpsing from exhaustion when he went to bed. Finally, he got up ao the entrance of his dwelling once he had his clothes on. After being blinded for a while by the first lights of dawn, his eyes adapted to the early daylight, and Jon looked around, pleased with the transformation of the pce. Until 6 moons ago, it was full of abandoned houses, but now there were 5 ructures.

  First, they renovated the fe to make it a bit more modern, with the limited resources at their disposal. Sed, a boratory was created for the alchemical studies of the 9-nameday boy, his favorite pce where he spent most of his time during the day. There was also a kennel for the wolves, whose number had increased during this time. Lastly, they built two new houses, refurbishing the others to aodate the giants and the miaken from the mines by the giants themselves.

  The sun hadn't fully rise, but Jon, who had already recovered from the previous fatigue, began to run through the camp, uhe watchful eyes of his wolves. They saw their zy master as always whearted his m exercise routine. Jon, initially, struggled, after all, he was still an 8-nameday-old boy until retly, but he felt a very pleasant development in his opinion. Even though he still felt far from his ideal, he couldn't demand too much, as he noticed the ge i 6 moons.

  Jon became faster, and his sparring sessions with Du began t surprises to the soldier. The boy was still far from being able to defeat him, but he was starting to pose some difficulty for the man. Du also khat in the ing years, this oute would be very different if Jon ti this pace.

  Jon had an unlimited future as a warrior, and he k. He had been training and creating a new diet retly discovered using his alchemical knowledge, peculiar pnts and herbs, and some geic power to develop his body to a level never seen before in this world.

  As he developed this diet retly, something he he growth potion, the results were not yet very visible, but he khat would ge in the ing weeks.

  But the growth potion wasn't the only thing he developed during his thousands of hours in the boratory. He made a kind that gave him a temporary physical boost. Of course, there were some side effects, but Jon minimized them in his development and made sure that nothing would be perma if he knew how to trol the dose, using it only in emergencies.

  This didn't stop him from testing it with Du one day for him to see the results. This made Jon go from an 8-nameday-old child with siderable talent in feng to a little monster in strength and speed. The northerner, a war veteran who left the ti in search of glory, lost in that pce to an 8-nameday-old child after taking that potion. Of course, the man was shocked to the core by this, refusing to believe what happehis garnered more attention from the giants and William, yielding the same result after another sparring session, something that earned many ughs from the spectators.

  But Jon did not abuse that glory, as he used the potion only for a test. Jon expihat his strength and speed increased threefold, thanks to these experiments he has been dug i few moons. The only side effect is the pain that es right after ditiourn to normal, but other than that, it does not harm the body. Of course, this effect is only wheill trols the dose he take; otherwise, his body could be even more harmed than the pain.

  The boy also informed that they could use the potions if any time while under Jon's wing, as he would take care of his people, deg this on the occasion. In addition to Jon's progress in the military area, Du knew how to instruct the giants quite well, who had improved signifitly, moving from just making moves to crush their eo being swordsmen in formation, even though they were still far from being skilled with bdes, they were uable with their size, which was already monstrous in the eyes of all men, even without knowing how to wield a sword.

  Wallyk, Wuual, Kypyl, and Huyys trained in the sword and shield area, which has been yielding good results sihey were being a joint and anized unit under Du's and. Even though he was human, they all reized that this man knew how to lead. Seryna didn't seem enthusiastic about being part of this unit, so she traio stand by Jon as some protective guard. She was also the only giant who preferred the hammer over the sword but showed greater talent than her terparts.

  William was also trained with the bde. The bcksmith, who never had training to fight, still harbored rese about how they killed his family and now hoped to be able to take revenge, which he learned a lot in these st few moon's training.

  In addition to the potions that Jon has been developing and the training, he and William made great progress in the fe i 3 moons, starting to have great success with the equipment that came out of the fe. Jon developed and helped William with teiques as a bcksmith with his knowledge and also learned from his own mistakes since he only had knowledge, not practical experie be said that both have reached a level of expertise in the craft, something they shouldn't have achieved in the decade, in Jon's case.

  Now that Jon and William have created equipment for the giants, bined with the training given by Du, if before a giant could be worth 10 men, now these t men in the camp could be worth as much as 120 men, as they now had plete swords, shields, and armor. Jon still wondered if they really would only need 120 men to take down one of the giants and sacrifiother 119 men.

  The giants were also natural workers, and with the help of some knowledge from the boy, they further developed the mines. In the end, the deposit of the pce had steel in such quantity that they didn't o use even a bit of the rge amount, enough to make more than 2000 armors and 5000 swords for ordinary men.

  Johere had been a lot ress in these moons, but of all of them, his greatest discovery was with the bcksmith's craft, something he developed even without William being around. He created something he sidered eveer than his alchemical potions. Only he could create something like this. With his limited knowledge of the magiguage the gods gave him, he created, after 4 months of testing on ons and armor with a metal tempered with a ruhe nguage used by the children of the forest in aimes. Thus, a new metal emerged in front of Jon.

  It was different from the oe using ordinary iron, when it ced in a tainer covered with runes while the metal was molten, and Jon activated the runes of the taihrough his magic, a greenish metal emerged at the end of the equipment creation. William seemed to love it when he saw the result for the first time. With the young bcksmith helping in the mold after that, the first sword with this metal emerged. It was greenish, with a quality much superior to the on, in addition to its distinctive shine from any other on. Unfortunately, he couldn't make it better than Valyrian bdes, acc to Du, after iing it with some admiration. He had witnessed some ons with the legendary dragoal in his life, so he could give his ho opinion.

  But even though the greenish metal was inferior to the best in the world, it had something eveer than Valyrian bdes, and much superior to etal. It was found that they were extremely light, even lighter than dragoal. If an armor with normal steel weighs 50 kilograms, those with this metal in the same shape are reduced to 10 kilograms, five times lighter, something that surpassed Valyrian, which weighed 2 times lighter than the on.

  Johat with these equipment, he could produce the most feared and fast soldiers in the world, if he could create an army with these armors and ons because everyone would be agile and ire more than the oppo. He khat su army would have an advantage even against numerical disadvantages.

  From there, Jo aside all the equipment he and William had been produg and stayed with William to develop his own equipment and for everyone present. He created his official ons and began wielding dual bdes, something that, at first, had some difficulty, but i 2 moons, he mao get used to it in his training. Now he had fewer disadvantages for being a child, as his swords were long. Even though it seemed heavy for them, the greenish bdes were quite easy to haer getting used to the magical metal.

  Ahing was his animals, which developed and grew a lot over these moons. Caraxes and his panion, whom Jon named Judis, are the size of half a horse now. This made Du, William, and even the giants wonder if their eyes were pying tricks on them as they saw the accelerated growth of the birds.

  Both formed a pair of birds, but they were still too young to y their first eggs, which Jon wao wait for because he wao get two chicks. Uheir parents, the boy wao keep them at the normal size of a normal eagle, as it would be more useful to have animals of that size as his eyes in the sky. With genes from Caraxes and his panion, he was sure they would be powerful, even with their sizes much smaller than their parents.

  Jon also made a e with all the birds after all this time, but he couldn't make them grow like Caraxes and Judis because that requires a lot of magiething Jon 't do in his current strength. However, thanks to these bonds, Jon had eyes stantly watg over his camp and the surroundings. Eveuation iy of FrostRoar was stantly updated. In these 6 moons, there were some hunters nearby, but after teag a few phrases to some parrots and crows, he mao scare away any curious ones, g that the pce was cursed. The rumor made everyoay away from the pce. Imagi being able to sleep because a bird kept saying throughout the night, "GO AWAY! GO AWAY!" outside your tent. If they tried to attack the parrot, a shower of birds attacked them, making them flee immediately.

  The horses were being powerful too. Six moons turned most of the pack horses into powerful steeds. But Jon couldn't keep them all or take them north, so he selected 8 of them to apany him on his jourhey looked like warhorses, in addition to beiant to the cold, extremely strong, and quite fast and agile to walk through the snow and summer ground. Panis was by far the most powerful horse, very different from what it was when Jon got him from the Icehill farm.

  Finishing the analysis of his animals, the st and not least important were his giant wolves. What surprised Jon the most was their growth. The 4 wolves that initially had 2 meters grew half a meter in this time, upgrading them to the size of 2.5 meters, making them monsters in the eyes of any northerner. And their ges weren't just i. Pleasantly, they became stronger, mile, aiful, their ore vibrant. Johis when they returo the camp with a bear carcass, and watg their memories, they usually fought alone while the others watched as a kind of petition among them.

  Everyone in the camp also had the opportunity to see the newers, as the she-wolf, Bckarrow, gave birth two moons ago, and more than 10 cubs were born. They had been growing a lot in these st moons, and Jon believes he won't o wait more than 1 year for them to reach 2 meters. Their colors varied, some bck like the father, gray wolves like the mother, or some colors that set them apart, like a red wolf and what caught Jon's attention the most, a white wolf with red eyes. Strangely, he formed a bond with the tter like no other. Even his father didn't seem to have this e with the boy or even other animals. Perhaps it rivaled Caraxes, but then Jon paid special attention to this little one and named him Ghost.

  Another piece of news during this time was that the other female was alsnant i moons, but he couldn't wait for this birth anymore, now that he was better prepared. He knew he could take care of the mother up to the walls without many problems.

  Finally, the ges in the animals were not only among them. Jon, in his travels on some hunts in the Wolfswood to train, ended up bonding with some powerful animals he found in the woods. Among them, the boy added to the camps 2 shadow cats, both with 1.5 meters, and 4 bears with 1.5 to 2 meters. From there, he began to create a force of giant and powerful animals, in case he added them together with his wolves.

  As soon as Jon finished his m ruuro the ter of the camp, where everyone was already awake. Today would be a special day, as it would be his st stay in this pce, and the others would depart with him.

  Jon had been preparing for the journey for a week. William and Du could have left moons ago, as the traly provided for 4 moons of work. However, they were so amazed by everything that happened between them and Jon that they decided to apany him. They treated Jon like a blessed child because, after witnessing everything they saw, they khis child would bring great ges to the world. And what man wouldn't want to be part of these events and leave his name in the history books? So, Jon wasn't surprised when they asked to follow the boy, even to the ends of the earth.

  Now that they were preparing to leave, the boy couldn't help but think about what had been happening in the north outside the camp. Some ges seemed to shake the Northerners after the mayor was executed, and his son was sent to the Wall. His father, Lord Stark, along with several other lords, initiated a pany to eradicate human traffig in the kingdom. This shook the people of the kingdom a lot, as there was such a rotten market right uheir noses. Jon personally suspected that there was someone powerful helping them behind the ses, probably some lord from the east coast, like Karstarks, Lightfoot, Overton, Flints, Woolfield, Wells, Lockes, Boltons, or even the Mandelyns. Sihese traffickers mao pnt themselves in the north of that coast like a disease and spread without anyone "notig." But as a child with his ideas, he couldn't prove or help. He could only leave these things to his father, who was in charge.

  Now, at this moment, his father and his banners hunted down aroyed other human traffickers' bases scattered throughout the kingdom. Seeing that they were being hunted, many traffickers began to flee, while others remaiu garrisons built in strategid obvious locations. Within those who tried to escape, some mao return to Essos, but most merary svers were caught. Even some being executed, there was a great addition to the Night's Watch with some new hundreds of men who chose to fight for order rather than lose their heads.

  After months of fighting, Jon learhat his father was currently in the east with 3 thousand Northern soldiers under his and. They were i resistance, which was a fairly protected garrison. Wheacks on these bases began, strangely, birds would deliver their locations in the north. And as Lord Stark trusted the white raven, named Wills, the same one who delivered Jon's first letter after moons without news, Lord Stark pced them under siege, sending soldiers to the and of someorustworthy for all the svers' camps, making them stuck with almost no ce of escape. As Jon had many little birds, it was easy for him to find out all the pces while sending his eyes from the sky throughout the north. These birds not only looked from afar, but they were good at infiltrating, listening, and even showing images of dots that Jon could read. So it was easy to discover the whole scheme, but still, he never found out who the real sponsor behind the ses was, whom they only called the blood lord.

  Now, with all the pces destroyed, his father was fighting i garrison with his 3 thousand men against 400 remaining svers. As they kheir fates, they refused to surrender and stayed that way for many moons, with no success from the Northern forces to infiltrate the stronghold. But the iion was only to dey them from esg, as there was a camp of 500 Northerners outside the pce, preventing them from esg, but now Jon's father finally appeared with more than 2500 men at his back; it was now a matter of time for them to surrender.

  His father was running bad forth, fighting Essos meraries in various sieges. Even Jeroh Mormont had to flee off the ti and escape his father's wrath, who ned him to death, but in the end, he mao escape. Jon also learhat Bear Isnd was even poorer, thanks to the inpetence of that lord.

  With the information gathering, Winterfell did not escape his ears and the eyes in the sky. Jon had to cut off tact with his younger siblings, especially after Catelyn Stark/Tully attempted to kill Wills with some guards. While the maester was not in the rookery, the white raven became extremely frightened, cursing the madwoman as he fled from the tower.

  This left Jon angry, and he ended up cutting tact sihen. He khings weren't going well for them i few moons. When they discovered that Lord Stark was his father, ark was accimed as the father of little Jon, boosting the Stark name in the North once again. The as he took against the svers followed the theory that little Jon was behind it all, further enhang his reputation in the North. This would have bee for the Starks in aime, but with rumors about Catelyn Stark, a wicked southerher who expelled the boy from Winterfell after attempting to kill him, and his half-brother who hated him, people were openly speaking ill of them. They questioned whether she should be the dy of Winterfell or the heir to the North, something that didn't sit well.

  There was a rumor that little Jon fled because the woman was jealous of the son of a woman Lord Stark met during the war, as none of her children pared to the bastard child. They eveed the bald "The Fish Who Wants to Be a Wolf." Jon didn't know what to think about it. He genuinely disliked Catelyn and wanted her as far away from him as possible, especially after she tried to get rid of Wills. But personally, he didn't like people saying that Jon was better than his brothers. Even after Robb did that to him, he didn't want to disrupt Robb's life. He began to realize that being still in the North would only hinder Robb Stark's rule. He just hoped his brother wouldn't take these things personally. He wao help Robb more than harm him, even after everything. However, reality was as cruel as he imagined. Robb openly hated him now. Jealousy and the voices in his ears from Catelyn and Theon ed him. It saddened Jon to hear his brother openly speaking ill of him, with only the younger siblings defending him.

  Joopped sending birds to che his younger siblings because it hurt to see and hear Robb. But he had to put that aside and tinue on his way to the North. With that, he began preparing to finally set out for the end of his journey.
