"Luke Your Majesty, please put your sword away."

The elderly Maester Aemon walked over slowly with the support of his servants.

Aemon·Targaryen, a blind centenarian. He was originally Royal House, and had a chance to inherit Iron Throne, but for the sake of the stability of the country, he gave up his inheritance rights and voluntarily came to Castle Black and became a bachelor here.

He has served Castle Black for decades and has selflessly dedicated everything. He is a respectable old man.

Maester Aemon said tremblingly, "Your Majesty, Luke, Wall There are tens of thousands of Wildlings troops outside, and every Night's Watch is a very precious fighting force. They should die on the battlefield, not in the internal fighting among their own people."

Jon also grabbed Gary's arm at this time, "Luke, Maester Aemon helped me. If it weren't for him, I would have been executed long ago."

Gary accepted this kindness for Jon. He sheathed his sword and sneered, "Alliser, thank you very much Maester Aemon. If he hadn't interceded for you, I would have killed you!"

At the beginning, there were many Night's Watch who followed Alliser and added insult to injury, hoping to execute Jon.

Maester Aemon was afraid that Gary would continue to investigate, and immediately said in the direction of Jon: "Jon, Luke His Majesty must be tired after coming from a long distance. Go and clean up the room in the King's Tower and send His Majesty there to rest."

The King's Tower is where Castle Black entertains Royal House. It has the best room in the entire castle.

Jon patted Gary on the shoulder, "Put the body down and I will take you to the room."

Gary glared at him and cursed, "You brat, do you really think what I said is fart? Just lead the way and stop talking nonsense."

Jon smiled awkwardly, pushed Night's Watch behind him, and motioned for them to get out of the way.

He walked in front to lead the way for Gary, and his two friends, Edd and Grenn, followed closely behind.

After they left, the blind Maester Aemon asked Alliser, "They said, His Majesty Luke has a Dragon?"

Alliser looked up at the spear tower, Dragon had long disappeared, "Yes, a black Dragon."

Maester Aemon asked again, "Luke, Your Majesty... what is your hair color?"

Alliser felt very strange. He just saw Gary's hair color through the gap in his visor. "I clearly remember that he had black hair when he was a child. How come he has white hair now?"

"White hair?"

Maester Aemon thought of something and fell silent for a moment.

King's Tower.

The room that has not been used for a long time is full of musty smell.

Jon and others entered the room first, opened the windows for ventilation, and laid a straw bed for Gary.

Gary walked at the end carrying Ygritte's body. He only entered the room after they finished everything.

He placed the body on the ground, then took off his helmet and placed it on a wooden table with a tray.

Jon looked at Ygritte on the ground, his eyes full of sadness. "Luke, what are you doing? Why did you bring the body up? We can't leave any body for White Walkers. She must be burned before she can truly rest in peace."

Gary and Drogon flew for several days in a row. Except for a moment when he landed and rested, he maintained the same posture most of the time. His body was now sore and painful.

He took off the plate armor on his body and joked to Jon, "What? We haven't seen each other for three years and we finally reunited. Why don't you come and give me a hug?"

Jon walked behind Gary and took off his heavy breastplate for him, "You went Essos?"

"Hmm."

When Gary saw Jon, he couldn't help but think of Robb. He blamed himself and said, "I should have come back earlier, I'm sorry, Jon, Robb him..."

Jon then removed the shoulder armor for Gary, "Like you, I was not able to be by Robb's side when he needed us most. However, you took back Winterfell and the North on behalf of Stark, which is much better than me. I... did nothing for Robb."

Gary, with the help of Jon, quickly took off the entire set of plate armor. Wearing only the leather jacket underneath, he turned around and hugged Jon, "Long time no see, brother."

Jon held back tears and hugged Gary with his backhand, "Welcome home, brother."

Edd and Grenn, who were standing nearby, did not dare to move for fear of making any noise and disturbing this warm reunion.

Gary let go of Jon, took out a handful of Valyrian steel sword from his waist, and stuffed it into Jon's hand.

Jon caught the steel sword in a daze, not knowing why.

Gary first took out Falling Plum from his waist and asked Jon, "Do you know the forging material of my knife?"

Jon's current sword "Longclaw" was given to him by Geo Mormont, a family heirloom of House Mormont, a Valyrian steel sword.

So under the light of the fire, he could tell at a glance that Gary's knife was made of Valyrian steel.

"Valyrian steel?"

Gary put Falling Plum back into the scabbard, "Yes, it's Valyrian steel."

He pointed at the steel sword in Jon's hand and said calmly, "This is also a Valyrian steel sword, which I am going to build for you."

Jon lowered his head in surprise and carefully looked at the steel sword in his hand.

Whether it is the wolf head shape on the sword head or the wolf claw shape on the sword grid, there is a unique style that he likes very much.

He pulled out the steel sword, and there were indeed black stripes on the blade.

"Luke, have you mastered the method of recasting Valyrian steel?"

Gary picked up a piece of shoulder armor from the ground and cursed with a smile, "Can you be of some use? What kind of skill is it to recast Valyrian steel? Look at what this piece of shoulder armor is?"

He threw the shoulder armor to Jon and waited for Jon's answer with a smile.

Jon and others were unable to see clearly the true color of Gary's plate armor in the dim environment outside.

Now that there was firelight in the room, Jon instantly saw the black strip marks on the surface of the plate armor. He was really shocked, "This shoulder armor is also Valyrian steel? No... No, this plate armor of yours is all Valyrian steel?"

Edd and Grenn, who had been standing nearby, were also stunned, staring at Gary in horror.

Gary spread his hands, "So?"

Jon exclaimed, "Not only did you learn how to recast Valyrian steel, but you also got a large piece of Valyrian steel from Essos!"

Gary:"..."

He gave up explaining, raised his hand and pointed at Longclaw on Jon's waist, "Give me House Mormont's steel sword, and I will hand it over to House Mormont's current Earl."

Jon did not hesitate, he immediately took off Longclaw and handed it to Gary, "I have borrowed the sword for so long, I really should return it to House Mormont."

Gary placed Longclaw on the wooden table and said to Jon, "Have you chosen a name for your steel sword?"

Jon blurted out, "It's called Winter."

"Winter Is Coming" is the clan language of House Stark. Jon's actions also proved his true inner thoughts.

He wants to make a Stark...

"Your name is engraved on the scabbard. Take a look."

Hearing Gary's prompt, Jon began to observe the scabbard, which was engraved with a name: "Jon...Jon·Stark?"

Gary crossed his arms over his chest and said in a serious voice, "Jon·Snow, I officially declare as King in the North that from today until your death, you are no longer a Snow, but a real Stark!"
