#450 - Chapter 184 Theon's Voyage (Part 2)

The locals are extremely devout in their belief in the God of Merriment, and prostitutes enjoy a very high social status. Even some nobles willingly devote themselves to this profession, just to experience the pleasure it offers. For the Ironborn who come from afar, their arrival undoubtedly brings more vitality to this land. And these Ironborn make no attempt to conceal their desires, embracing the temptations of the prostitutes with open arms.

However, while such a life is full of excitement, it can easily lead to addiction and loss of self. This is especially true for the Ironborn, who are accustomed to a harsh life. Such a decadent life can easily intoxicate them, eroding their will. Therefore, after staying for two months, Theon and Yara finally decided to leave this place.

Leaving this tempting place behind, they arrived at Sothoryos. This continent is very underdeveloped, with few places to dock along the way, and most of them are controlled by local forces. To make matters worse, there are also a large number of lizard-like reptiles resembling dinosaurs, which attack humans day and night, posing a serious threat to people's lives. Due to the presence of these reptiles, people can only establish a few settlements in northern Sothoryos to ensure their safety.

In the outer sea of northern Sothoryos lies the infamous Basilisk Isles. This is a true paradise for pirates and adventurers, full of endless adventures and challenges. Here, the air is thick with mud and blood, and the towns are crowded with all sorts of people, including runaway slaves, leather merchants, prostitutes, and slave traders.

As long as you are not afraid to spend iron coins, you can always get supplies in the Basilisk Isles. The slave traders and pirates plunder everywhere, with Naath being one of their targets, and sell the captured prisoners to Slaver's Bay in the north.

When the Ironborn arrived, the local Bone Breakers demanded that they pay tribute before being allowed to land. This was an unacceptable insult to the hot-tempered Ironborn!

Thus, a fierce conflict erupted instantly. Under Yara's command, the Ironborn, who had been feeling stifled all the way, unleashed their astonishing combat power, allowing these pirates from the south to witness the Ironborn's bravery and fearlessness.

The pirates, who were already outnumbered, were ultimately defeated, and Theon successfully captured Fly Isle. They left only a handful of survivors, and the rest were all killed. Their speed was so fast that the pirate forces on the other islands didn't even have time to react. The Bone Breakers, with a history of hundreds of years, quietly disappeared into the long river of history.

Fearing these powerful new pirates, other pirate gangs and slave-trading groups had no choice but to accept these new Ironborn. Thus, Theon and Yara settled on Fly Isle and made it their base. From then on, they began to frequently attack passing merchant ships and plunder local native islands. Among them, the most frequently visited place was Naath (also known as Missandei's homeland).

Naath, also known as "Butterfly Island," is located off the northwestern coast of Sothoryos. This island is very close to Fly Isle and is located directly south of the Valyrian peninsula.

The Naathi people have very unique physical characteristics, which are obviously different from those of the Summer Islanders, and look more like a mixed race. They have flat, round faces, dark skin, and gentle, almost golden amber eyes. Because they are friendly, they are often praised by sailors as "the peaceful people."

The Naathi people love music and hate war and killing. They cannot bear to harm even animals and trees, and only eat fruits and vegetables. This makes them considered the most suitable race for slavery, and therefore they have suffered a great deal of plunder and enslavement.

Theon originally planned to manage this land well, but he soon discovered that with money and women, the Ironborn easily settled down. However, Yara still missed the Iron Islands and was waiting for a suitable opportunity to kill her way back to the Iron Islands and reclaim her throne from Euron.

After a period of effort, they finally harvested a large number of goods, including some captured slaves. However, since Slaver's Bay had been occupied by Daenerys and the slave trade was prohibited, they had to turn their attention to the more distant Qarth, hoping to find new business opportunities there.

This time, the siblings decided to come to Qarth in person, partly to experience the exotic customs of the city, and partly to find sales channels for their goods. Although the living environment in Sothoryos is harsh, the benefits that can be obtained are also huge. Many rare woods and minerals are very valuable when transported back to the mainland. They used the captured slaves to mine in the Basilisk Cape, as well as various reptile hides and biological tissues, which the Dawn Trading Company has been buying at high prices.

Sean, the general manager of the Dawn Trading Company in Qarth, personally received them. Sean: "So, it's Theon Greyjoy. I didn't expect to meet you here. This must be Lady Yara Greyjoy! It's a pleasure to meet you." Sean was once Liu Yuan's secretary and was stationed in Winterfell, so he naturally knew Theon.

Yara: "Please call me Queen of the Iron Islands. I am the true heir to the Iron Islands. Euron is the murderer of my father."

Sean: "I apologize, Madam, I didn't mean to offend you. But this is Qarth, and the current Lord of the Iron Islands is Euron, at least until you have enough strength. So, Master Theon, let's talk about business now! The goods you brought this time are of very high quality and are the best of the best, which is exactly what the Lord needs. So, we can buy these goods at 10% above the market price."

Hearing this, Theon's expression became very complicated, and he sighed, "I don't deserve this title. I have failed my teacher's expectations."

Sean shook his finger and said with a smile: "No, no, no, the only one you have let down is the Stark family. The grievances between you and them have nothing to do with us. Moreover, the Lord has not given any instructions to dismiss your identity. You have been away from Westeros for a long time, haven't you? Here are some detailed reports about Westeros, I think you should be interested. In addition, given your special status, the Dawn Trading Company will open the weapons restriction order to you. That is to say, as long as you can pay enough, all items on the military sales list can be sold to you."
