Chapter 110: Westeros Conspicuous Bag

Three days passed in a flash.

Sunspear is the fortress of House Martell and the capital of Dorne.

It is located north of the Greenblood River, on the southeast coast of Westeros, surrounded by the sea on three sides.

The Water Gardens, the private residence of the Prince of Dorne, is located on the beach three leagues west of Sunspear, separated by a coastal road.

On this day, a huge ship over sixty meters long came towards the dock of Yangji City.

Countless businessmen and workers who were busy at the dock stopped and looked at the huge ship.

Some of the well-traveled merchants recognized the Poseidon at a glance.

"This is the Poseidon! Why is the Poseidon coming to Dorne?" a thin businessman said in shock.

"Poseidon, is that the name of this ship?" some merchants and porters who didn't know the name asked one after another.

The lean businessman suddenly felt a sense of superiority in his heart. He laughed and then said complacently:

"The Poseidon is the exclusive vehicle of the Poseidon of Atlantis. It is said that the Poseidon always travels on the Poseidon.

Moreover, there were never any guards on the Poseidon. Apart from the necessary sailors and nine royal guards, all the others were young and beautiful maids.

The interior of the Poseidon is extremely luxurious. It is said to be a mobile palace on the sea, filled with rare treasures presented to the Poseidon by others.

After listening to the thin businessman's introduction, someone immediately asked:

"You are not lying, are you? There are no guards on board, and no speedboats following. How can the Sea King guarantee his own safety?"

Speaking of this, the skinny businessman became excited and said, "That's because you haven't seen the world. The Sea King can command."

Before he could finish his words, a four or five meter long red flag suddenly appeared on the bow of the Poseidon ship which was docked at the shore.

Before everyone could react, a dull roar was heard, and then everyone could see clearly.

That's not a flag, it's clearly a giant red dragon.

Even though they had never seen a dragon in their lives, they knew it was a dragon when they saw Korakshu for the first time.

The crowd suddenly became chaotic, and a large number of people began to run towards Yangji City.

Standing in the crowd, the thin man was in the crowd against the current, and suddenly there was an irrepressible sense of nobility.

Then his eyes flashed, and after observing that there was indeed no clipper ship following the Poseidon, a bold idea came to his mind.

He wanted to take this opportunity to become the Sea King's man!

Even though there was a chance that he would be killed by the Sea King's guards and fed to the fish, he still wanted to take a gamble.

And I heard that the Sea King was very friendly to the people when he was the Prime Minister of Meereen. He wouldn't just kill him directly, right?

At this moment, Jack on the deck whistled softly, and Korakshuu immediately shrank back obediently.

Then Jack got off the boat with Korakhu and the Royal Guards.

He was not in a hurry to enter the city. Although Westeros had guest rights, Jack did not want to enter Sunspear.

After all, guest rights are just a decoration. Although they are binding on most nobles, there are also people like the Frey family.

Although Jack had confidence in the credibility of the Martell family, he had no roots in Westeros and did not bring many guards with him.

As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Jack would never cause trouble for himself.

All he knew about the Martell family came from movies, TV shows and novels, so it would be too reckless for him to rush into Sunspear.

So Jack looked around Sunspear at the dock while waiting for the Martells.

With a dragon appearing on the docks, Doran Martell would surely send someone to investigate.

At this time, Jack was looking at Yangji City. It must be said that Dorne has indeed undergone many changes since the Rhoyna people came here.

Sunspear was built of tan mud and straw.

It is located at the easternmost end of a small sandy peninsula, surrounded by the sea on three sides. Its west side is adjacent to Shadow City.

A triple set of curved walls surrounds the castle and winds its way through Shadow City.

The three gates arranged in sequence provide a convenient way to reach the inner city.

Visitors could walk directly through the triple curved wall to the Old Palace, rather than walking several miles through the maze-like town.

Rising from the Old Palace are the Spear Tower and the Sun Tower, symbolizing Martell's spear and Rhoynar's sun respectively.

The dark brown Sandship Fort was originally the fortress of the Martell family before Nymeria landed in Dorne, and is now part of Sunspear.

Its appearance resembles a large sailing ship that was washed ashore and turned into stone, so it is called Sand Ship Castle.

To the west, Shadow City stretched westward in the shadow of Sunspear's great curved walls.

Mud-brick shops and windowless huts clung to the city walls, while stables, inns, taverns, and brothels were farther west, some with their own walls. New buildings, in turn, clung to their neighbors' walls.

This has been repeated year after year, and Shadow City has grown to its current size.

Although the Dornish called it a city, it was no bigger than a small town, a strange, dirty, ugly one.

The narrow streets and alleys in the city are intricate and complex, like a maze.

The bazaars are full of spices sold from Dorne and further east of the world.

The houses, which are made of adobe, are characteristic of Dorne and stay cool even in the hot sun.

The triple curved wall was built about seven hundred years ago.

Three walls surround Sunspear and wind their way through Shadow City, forming a defensive barrier.

They can disorient the bravest enemy.

It is worth mentioning that there are three gates, which are heavily guarded and arranged in sequence, providing a convenient way to reach the inner city.

Visitors could walk directly through the triple curved wall to the Old Palace, rather than walking several miles through the maze-like town.

In addition, there are famous buildings such as the Old Palace, Spear Tower, Sun Tower, and Sand Ship Fort.

Spear Tower: The slender Spear Tower stands one hundred and fifty feet tall, with a gilded iron spike on top that adds another thirty feet to the tower's height.

The Spear Tower represents the spears of House Martell.

Sun Tower:

The sturdy Sun Tower has golden domes and leaded glass.

Beneath the vault is the throne room, a circular room with thick windows and stained glass.

The floors are made of pale marble.

There are two almost identical seats on the podium in the throne room, one of which has the golden spear emblem of the Martell family on the back, and the other has the sun emblem of Rhoyna on the back.

As for the Old Palace and Sand Ship Fort, they are not very ornamental, but are more of a commemorative and symbolic significance.

Whether in Jack's impression or in the history of the Seven Kingdoms, Dorne has always been an eye-catcher.

When King Aerys II visited Sunspear, he proposed a brilliant idea to the then Dornish princess - to dig underground canals under the Red Mountains to divert the abundant water resources of the rainforest to the south and irrigate the desert of Dorne.

Jack couldn't help but sigh that Aerys II was really smart. He even thought of transferring water from the north to the south!

At the same time, Dorne and the Tyrell family had many frictions on the border. The border grievances between the two families had a long history, but they rarely broke out into full-scale wars.
