”Which deck the creator of Gwent prefers to play with?” The King asked
Jon s nodded and Jon sat dohilehis robe to the side
”Skyri so I should represent ainst Skyrihed
”Haha! I can't even disagree” Jon felt the irony
In the asse to a civil war, this Gwent ainst another
Jon and Torygg took out their cards and put it against each other
”Usually there is a referee” Jon said
”Yes, Falk”
”My king”
”Would you mind if you become our referee?”
”It would be my pleasure”
Falk took the third chair and the three gentlemen nodded to each other and handed the decks to Falk to check them
”I must say, I was quite surprised by the way you presented the proble You have one-ninth of Skyrim well-monitored and under your control Must be quiet the labor”
”I ailant eye and enforce the Hold's Laell assure that life is fair and people are happy” Jon said
”So you provide them jobs under your business and make sure that no one co said in a questioning tone
Jon smiled and replied
”Couldn't have found any better way to take care of those folk People get greedy when they get power and can't afford an ene rebuilt Gods kno ain That's why one should be wary of greedy people”
”And does the rule include you?”
”It includes everyone My place and ive me both the freedom and the limits I need”
”Ah! I see Hahaha!”
Jon's ansas right to Torygg's worries Jon could read theof words Just like any other ruler, Torygg should be worried if a force grew too much under his domain and it can't be controlled anymore Jon answered hiave him the clue of how to keep their relationshi+p healthy, he is content with his position as a Thane and he took fully what he wants, more than that would be over the li
Jon was not the only person ould spread his influence through an entire hold Names like Maven Black-Briar, Thonar Silver-Blood, Olfrid Battle-Born, Torbjorn Shatter-shi+eld, Erikur and Bryling, all these people are the tycoons of Skyrim and now Jon Dare is the new tycoon in Winterhold No one would have bothered with Winterhold especially for Nords who are not fond with the College of Winterhold but ould have thought the next rising star was from there Not only was the hold wounded by the collapse but it also had low resources and unfriendly nature Jon's rise was indeed suspicious
Also, the problerew and his ins If he was supported by an enemy of Skyrim then it wouldto those who looked in his history An Orphan adopted by a powerful Arch-Wizard for his talent in ood of Winterhold and his loyalty to Skyri both the Stormcloak faction and the I in shadows and his stand was bluntly neutral The Empire couldn't hate him for it and neither the Stormcloaks He oing through a rebuilding phase, any conflict in the hold would bring it apart and he clearly wouldn't take that lying down
High King Torygg was a supporter of peace and a rise of a Hold like Winterhold hting and that was so he wants for Skyrim For that, he wanted to make sure that Jon was 100 in the sa to join either side in the conflict yet to come He also wanted to e comes up
”To tell the truth, ere in discussion lately here in Solitude about the Jarlshi+p of Winterhold, anted to move the title to a man more capable than Jarl Korir Our only candidate was you”
”I see, you either had to stop ht, we didn't kno to stop you quietly though The person we hoped we can use had cut contacts with us”
Torygg and Jon were speaking bluntly rather casually
”You o”
”…” ”…”
Torygg as acting cool couldn't keep up the act and Falk as checking the Gwent Cards froze and his eyes ns of energy that couldn't escape the senses of an energy junkie like Jon
”What? He was spying for Erikur” Jon said it as it was so, Falk and the third presence sighed and shook their heads Jon was as brutal as the rumors
Kraldar was indeed a spy of Erikur Before Jon would come to Winterhold, Kraldar was a Nord noblelory after the [Great Collapse] He was recruited by Erikur to e of Winterhold as Erikur was already ainored Kraldar was to replace Jarl Korir in the game if the Imperials ever take control of the Winterhold and Jon are to all of that He was also aware that if by any chance, Kraldar becaet banished to Solitude and stay in Erikur's home which all revealed Erikur's plot to Jon
Jon threw Kraldar in the sea as soon as the latter started spying for Erikur
”So you won't become the Jarl? You said you are okay with the liht?” Torygg asked
”He is a breath of fresh air” Jon replied
”Hehehe! You two see on him?”
”Why? He is my Jarl How come I betray the man who employed er Falk, you took your sweet time, how are the cards?”
”… I a at the cards with a weird face
”I knew it! The creator of Gwentsaid with a disappointed face
”Eh… quite the opposite actually Not that much rare cards but…”
”But what?”
