City of Volantis
Volantis is a huge city, its population is thousands of people, but the most incredible is the proportion of slaves and free men, 80% of the city are slaves with tattoos, this proportion is higher than all the cities in the slave bay
This city is never calm, every year there are elections, but today the city is even more agitated with the return of the Volantis army, 10,000 soldiers left to fight in Astapor and today only 11 soldiers returned alive, this is the biggest military failure of the last years old.
Volantis once had the military power to threaten all other free cities alone, it took a great military alliance between the King of Westeros and free cities to defeat Volantis, the arrogant and proud people of Volantis will never easily accept this defeat.

Tiger Party Council
"Vukai, how dare you to come back, I should never have made you a free man!" Malaquo Maegyr screams angrily
In this year's elections, the Tiger Party had the advantage of getting 2 members re-elected and would remain in control of the city, but this military defeat was a major blow to its reputation.
"I couldn't do anything, the Yunkai army is very strong, well trained and has great generals, it's different from a merchant town." Vukai
"10 thousand soldiers were defeated, and only 11 soldiers returned, you should have retreated sooner" Malaquo Maegyr
"Malaquo, stay calm, it's no use complaining, what we must do now is urgently form a new army and leave to recover Astapor, we only have 5 more months in office, if we win we can recover our reputation among the people" Pionv Maek
Pionv Maek and Malaquo Maegyr are the current representatives of the Tiger party in government
"All right, let's build a new army quickly and retake Astapor, or else the group of elephants will have the upper hand." Malaquo Maegyr
"Vukai, we will build an army of 30,000 soldiers, you will lead again, but know that if you fail again, your daughters will be delivered to the cheapest brothel in town." Pionv Maek
Vukai became a free man, but he is not noble and as an ex-slave his family can be enslaved again
"Yes, I won't fail" Vukai says, but his hand is squeezing angrily
=====================
Volantis Tavern
Vukai drank worried, 30,000 soldiers are not enough, he has personally seen the strength of the Yunkai army and he knows it, unless Volantis sends 60,000 soldiers it is impossible to recover Astapor, but how can an ex-slave reason with a noble?
"Maybe I should kill my daughters, a life in the brothel is worse than death" Vukai cried as he whispered
"You look sad" says a beautiful woman in a red dress
"who are you? go away I want to be alone" Vukai
"Names are not important, but if you want to know who I am, my name is Kinvara, a red priestess, my lord of light sent me on a mission" Kinvara
"Lord of light? Are you from the temple of r'hllor?" Vukai
"My lord knows you are in trouble, but know that this could be your fortune" Kinvara
"Fortune?" Vukai finally lifted his head and looked, although a little drunk as an experienced general, he kept his lucidity.
"You're afraid of failure, afraid of not fulfilling your mission to defeat Yunkai, but who says you need to fight Yunkai?" Kinvara
"Do you want me to betray Volantis?" Vukai
"Betraying is a strong word, think about your life, your mother was abused and killed and you were robbed and enslaved in childhood, you fought for volantis as a slave for decades, and all you achieved in your life was a false freedom, a wife and daughters, but now you will lose everything " Kinvara.
"..." Vukai doesn't say anything, but his eyes reveal a deep hatred
"I want you to lead the 30,000-man army of Volantis into a trap, I want you to become a servant of Yunkai, I will help send your wife and daughters to Yunkai, surrender to Yunkai and sacrifice 30,000 Volantis soldiers as one gift of loyalty, when you talk to the conqueror of Yunkai, tell him that the temple of R'hllor will help him in his battles and conquests, tell him that we will help him because winter is coming " Kinvara.
