Previously On A Song of Musket and Sword

"Welcome to the North Emperor Belleza" said Ned as he Nod towards him "And this is my Wife Catlyne Stark Nee Tully"

"Like my husband said Emperor Belleza Welcome to the North and Hope your Travel Uneventful" said Catylne

Ronan Shook his Head "Not that Least my Lady, Lady dacey simply Made our Travel far more Bearable" said Ronan with a Friendly Smile towards the Mormont Lady "Because of her i'm sure that we are safe and Guided us in the Easist Rout towards your Home"

Dacey let out a Chuckle "Your Welcome Emperor Belleza" Said Dacey as she Bow her head

"No wildlings or Bandits the Old gods made Good Furtone for your Travel Emperor Belleza" Said Ned

Ronan Nod his head "Shall we go inside? We have Travel for quite some Time now, i want to Rest then we can Talk Whenever I'am Ready to Speak for Diplomacy" Said Ronan

Ned Agreed for that "Come inside and it would Warm and We will Offer you Guest Right" Said Ned

"We would Accept it, Thank you Lord Stark" Said Oichi, They have been about their Traidioned about Guest Right and Northerners are Said to take it Seriously, being a Japanese Herself, She knows When Someone Takes Tradition Seriously and so She have No Worry about Backstabbing here in the North and they would likely Take Straight and Blunt Answers Rather than Empty Words

They Enter to Winter and they would Begin their Tank

Present

With it Ronan and Oichi Eat the Bread and Salt as per the North's Tradition of Guest Right, Though it was nothing Fancy to Ronan's Opinion but it was mostly Simple that which would be Quite Enough for him, As his Son and all of their Guard have Ate it as well and Thus they are Protected under the Care of the Warden of the North, the Highest Authority in the North as he is their Warden but still Answer to the King of the 7 kingdoms

There He Went with Ned to his Solar While Catlyne Led Oichi to their Room Where they would Stay That which Leaving Ronan and Ned alone in Ned's Solar Where they will have a Diplomatic Talk Since Ned have already sent a Message to Robert About Meeting the New Civilization and Would Send Another in his Conclusion of Meeting with Ronan and his family No Doubt it would put some Headache Towards Robert who would likely Made Jon Arryn to put more Work on him and Jon Arryn would Ready for a Diplomatic Talk with them When they Finally Meet the Bellezas

Lord Stark's Solar was Quite large, it has Furnished and a large Desk made of White Wood, on the Wall Hung the Stark Banner and Another is a Map of the North that which is Detailed the Entirely of the Kingdom of the North along with Houses that Rules Said Lands and at the Center is Winterfell

"Quite Interesting When Said Capital was Literally in the Center with all Rounds Connected to Winterfell" Though of Ronan as he Gaze at the map of the North and Next to it are the Entirely of the 7 Kingdoms

"Before we begin Lord Stark, i Almost Forgot, This Man here" Said Ronan as he Place his hand to his Eldest Son's Shoulder "is my Eldest Son, His Named is Chris Belleza"

Ned Blinked his Eyes Before he Realize it "His not the Birth by your Wife then?" Said Ned

Ronan nod his Head "indeed it is, Oichi is my 3rd Wife, As Chris is Birthed by my First Wife, Which she had Died due to Illness" said Ronan

Ned nod his head "My Condolence with you Emperor Belleza, losing a Wife must be Broken your Heart especially if you lose your 2nd wife in the Same" said Ned

Ronan Lightly Chuckled at that "Sorry but Lord Stark my 2nd Wife was Killed by my Countrymen because they could not accept her to be my Wife and that was Before i become an Emperor" said Ronan

Ned looked confuse and Felt some Apologetic Looked to Ronan when he heard that the 2nd Was Killed, He could tell that Ronan was Deeply still Misses his Wives that which at least made him Looked a Good Husband to Ned's Eyes

"You do not need to Lord Stark, that was long Time ago especially the Death of my Step Mother whom my Siblings have accepted Her as the Wife of our Father and Same to Lady Oichi we Accepted Her because of her Character Rather than the Family That she was Born into" said Chris with professional Tone

Ned nod before "Hope the Weather is not that Troubles you Emperor" Said Ned

Ronan Shook his Head with a Smile "No Need to Worry Lord Stark, I'am Used to Such a Weather" Said Ronan "We have Such Weather in my Country so no Worries Except it's Difference than yours in your Season but we would talk about it Later"

"Shall we start?" Said Ronan

Ned nod his head "Indeed, Let us Proceed" Said Ned before looking Serious that which Ronan could Respect, as now Ned Change his Aura with a Northern lord that he is, as he is Stoic and Cold as Ice with the Aura of Authority that Doesn't Demand to be Respect but at the Same time this is a Man that should be Respected not because that he is the Warden but because that he has Proven himself to be a Good Lord to his Subjects, That Which Ronan and his People Would Respect as it was Rare to have Good Noble Lords that they can Respect

Ronan Smiled Even Wider, By Since looking at Ned Stark's Eyes The Moment he looked to him, Ronan Knew that Ned Stark in an Honorable and Respectable Man, that Which He instantly like him, Even Ned's Tone was Humble without the Usual Arrogant and Prideful Shits that he Almost Always met since his Younger Years before becoming an Emperor

"Since i have Come here and Knowing that there is a New Continent and Civilization i Immediately Sent Scouting Fleet to Determined your People, and if Possible if i could have able to have Diplomatic Talks with you, Luckily Lady Maege Mormont from what i Gathered from my Ambassador was Respectful Person that which is a Good Start" Said Ronan, Ned Nod his Head

"Indeed She is, Here in the North we Might be Suspicious Lot, but we Know how to Respect our Neighbors, from Essos or in this Case a New Civilization in our West that we Could Never able to Chart" Said Ned  

"Then we would have a Problem with that, as long we Respect Each other then i and my People won't have a Problem" Said Ronan before Changing the Subject "Now onto the Next I like to Propose Non-aggression Pact and Trade Proposal Depending what you have and What can Trade of course" he then looked to his Son as he Nod to him, Chris put as he took a Scroll and Gave it to Ned Stark

Ned Opened and looked at the List of the Trade that would be beneficial to the North along with it's People

He Blinked at the List "Your Price to your Glass is Cheap" Said Ned

Ronan Raise his Eyebrow along with Chris

"Oh of course Medieval Age has an Expensive Glass and has yet to be high Quality compared to ours" Though of Ronan

"Our Glass are Cheap and it's High Quality Lord Stark, you could Even Looked to it for yourself, and Beside Our People from the Richest to the Poorest have Glass in their Home to the Largest of Buildings" Said Chris

Hearing that Made Ned Surprise before Regaining his Composure at the Moment "That's a Big Claim Your Grace, but Are you sure about?" He ask, Though he had a Hopeful Tone, As far as he Could Read the List, the Price was Cheap Compared to the Myr's Glass that which was Expensive and if he could Purchase that Many then, they could Build more Greenhouses in the North and able to Produce their Own Food more, and could Possibly made them less Dependent on Either the Reach or the Riverland for Food that have put some High Priced to it

"if you said is True Then we would Try to Looked in your Glass Quality, Due to it being Expensive we have Limited Numbers of it, Especially to Built Greenhouse in the North to Produce Food and My Castle was Lucky Enough to have One" said Ned "We Buy Glass in the Free City of Myr"

"Myr huh? And What are the Free Cities?" said Ronan

"The Free Cities are the What Remains of the Ancient Civilization the Valyrian Freeguild before their Fall, At their Zenith they are at the Most Advance, Most Powerful and Largest Realm in the Known World before the Cataclysm, the Only Survivors Left are the Targeryan, from what i know their History it was Thanks to Danys the Dreamer who Saw a Vision at the Intipending doom and Fled  here in Westeros More Specifically in Dragonstone and after a Century Aegon the Conqueror Conquared Westeros with his Dragons and his Sister Wives"

Ronan cought at that "W--- What do you Mean sister Wives? Did He Married his Sister? That's Disgusting incest" said Ronan with a Clear hint of Disgust in his Tone

Ned nod his head in Confirmation "indeed, but it was Only Keep the Bloodline Pure or Whatever they called it, but the Reason is to Maintain their Magic" said Ned

"Magic Wonderful" Though of Ronan, honestly he could not be in Close Minded due to them that they have been Transported here without any Explanation, especially when William speak about Dragons in his Reports at First he and those Around Him Scoff with Skepticism except Oichi who looked intrigue and Curious and the Evidence are in King's Landing as some of their Bones still in there and so he would tried to Find Out

"But Let's Get back on Tract" said Ned as they Returned back on Tract of the History "Like i said before The Free Cities are a Former Trading Post or Outpost by the Valyrians Freeguild after their Fall the Free Cities Rise" He then Proceed to tell them about their History and Culture and most of all Something that Ronan and the Americans Will Felt Enrage, a Hate that Ronan almost Forgotten due to a Certain Topic of a Certain Practice that Made every Nations Feared 

"SLAVERY!!!!!" Ronan Nearly Roared that made Ned Almost jump in Surprise at Ronan's Tone

Ned could tell that there is Hatred in Ronan's Eyes, that which Made him have some More Positive Opinion towards Ronan himself

"Ned Stark, if you would Cut your Trade to the Free Cities who Practice Slavery then we can Make Even the Trade Cheaper, as i would Ever it to the Rest of the 7 Kingdoms if they stop Trade with this slavers" Ronan Spat

"We would have no Problem with that Your Grace but, you do realize you Might possibly Going to war with them Right?" Said Ned

"And i do not Care, my People Hates Slavery for it is against the Values of my Country, When some States in my Country still Practice Slavery and Prejudice, it Resulted a War becuase they could not stop it, i Lead and Stop Slavery in my Country Once and For all, And this Free Cities would be No Different" said Ronan, he Leaves the Details about the Massacre of the Confederates for now as it might Horrified the Honorable Man before him

"I Understand Your Grace, my Decision will come Shortly let me examined the List first to Buy and what we can Trade with you" said Ned

Ronan calmed himself Down before nodding his Head "very Well Lord Stark" Said Ronan

With Catlyne and Oichi

As Catlyne Let Oichi to their Room she could not help but ask "May i ask a Question if i May your Grace?" said Catelyn

"What do you wish to ask?" Said Oichi with her usual Polite Tone

"Why did you Bow? Aren't your Ladies should be Curtsied?" Catelyn Ask, Since Oichi was a Foreigner she would be Excuse of Bowing as Ladies Should be Curtsied as Bow is only for the Men

"It's my People's Custom how we Greet to Each other, Especially Bowing to another Person in our Culture is a Sign of Respect, as well as Farewell to them" Said Oichi 

Catelyn nod at her Answer for that as they walked silently towards their Room

"It must be quite Hard Life to be an Empress in your Country" Said Catelyn

"You have no Idea Lady Catelyn, My Husband can be Aggressive at times Whenever someone would try to Threatened us, he is a Good Man, but he can be Ruthless at the Next if they Angered him Enough" said Oichi

"How Ruthless?" said Catelyn though she was uncomfortable of Asking that kind of Question

"Just Enough to End Arguments and Any thoughs of Rebellion Especially those who would Try to use him" said Oichi

"We have arrive in your Room, i hope your Stay would be Satisfying in your Standards Empress Oichi" said Catelyn

"It would be Enough for us Lady Stark" Oichi Replied With it Catelyn Leave her

Oichi Entered though their Room as their Servants would place their things there, not long after Ronan Entered

"how's the talk my Husband?" Said Oichi as she Place her Hand to his

"I Think we might have possible Trade War with another Faction" Said Ronan with a Serious Tone
