And speaking of Essos, don't our plan for Lys also come to fruition next turn as well?

The fuse lights this turn, I believe, so yes. However I see Lys as more of an internal action, as they're already ours. They just don't know it yet.

Still, giving @Azel the time he asks for will be critical in the next few months. Bringing in Mantarys, Volantis, Myr, Tolos and Lys isn't going be easy over the timescales I think we're running on. Taking out Pentos to bind Braavos to us is in a month or two as well, if I recall right.

This coming turn (5th month) Lys will prepare to attack us and will carry out the invasion in the turn after (6th month) if everything goes according to plan.

After Rango is done looting the corpses and Bone-Breaker had his fill of human hearts, we are marching upon Myr. They will be issued an ultimatum. Submit now and the terms will not be too onerous for most of them. Refuse and face the consequences.

Then, in the 7th month or late in the 6th, depending on when the Lys and Myr situation is resolved, we let Relath and Yrael declare openly for us.

Late in the 7th month, Zherys will call us over to submit Volantis to the Imperium, which will be Valyria reborn in their eyes.


Meanwhile we produce brown pants for Westeros and the Ghiscari. They will need them.
 
Here's Mia the 5th level Inquisitor Wizard's current list of spells known. Putting it here for ease of reference.

@DragonParadox, Can she get an entry on the front page somewhere? Doesn't need to be a full character sheet, but a basic one with gear, stats, and spells would be helpful.

Level 0 Light, Message, Prestidigitation, No light
Level 1: Grease, Mage Armor, Magic Weapon, Protection from Evil, Second Sight, Shield, Silent Image
Level 2: Animalistic Power, Blindness/Deafness, Dimension Hop, Glitterdust, Invisibility, Mirror Image, Protection From Arrows
Level 3: Air of Nobility, Fireball, Manyjaws

And here is her list after she spends the first nine days of the month learning her new spells.

Level 0 Light, Message, Prestidigitation, No light
Level 1: Grease, Heightened Awareness, Mage Armor, Magic Missiles, Magic Weapon, Protection from Evil, Second Sight, Shield, Silent Image
Level 2: Animalistic Power, Blindness/Deafness, Detect Thoughts, Dimension Hop, False Life, Glitterdust, Invisibility, Mirror Image, Protection From Arrows, Resist Energy
Level 3: Air of Nobility, Alter Fortune, Dispel Magic, Fireball, Great Thunderclap, Manyjaws, Tongues

Did we get a firm timescale for the Pentos conquest? We'll need to peel some folk off for that.
 
Somewhere in there we really need to take out the Golden company. That is another thing we were waiting on mind blank for, and iirc they were working on a ritual to artificially age dragons. Not only could we use such a thing on ourselves, getting rid of them should at least markedly reduce tiamat's influence on this plane.
 
Oh... by the by.

Monford: "Your Grace, there is one question that has been on my mind. Not that I don't appreciate the sights thus far..."
Viserys: "Say on, my Lord."
Monford: "Where is my daughter?"
Viserys, remembering what he tasked her to do this month: "Rrrr--riding horses?"
Monford, breathing a sigh of relief: "Ah. To be young again."
VIserys: "Hahaha... yeah. To be young."

cant wait for that reveal.
Herald: "Presenting, Valaena Velaryon, Bloodrider of the Dragon Khal!"
Monford: "What."

I honestly see it being incredibly worth it in sheer saying "No, fuck you, and fuck your attempts at restoring your precious children" to Tiamat.

They are all great sacrifices and great crafting materials.
Those blessed by Tiamat are also especially worth killing/sacrificing while blessing holds, so that she is weakened.
And that time window is somewhat limited, I believe.

I want her to expend more power.
I want her to fail.
I want to kill all "successes" of her.
This is our damn plane, and we are the top dragon here.

So yes, I'd rather be proactive here.

But I see that noone is interested at bringing an end to her ongoing operations for at least 3 months, so I'll just shut up about it and be salty.

Going for a nap now, too bored.

What exactly do you even want done here? Outside of the known red in the Golden Company they all have mindblank 24/7 and we don't have any idea where the things are or even where to begin looking. Not much we can do about the situation other than send out spies like normal and/or hope to stumble upon them early. I don't expect us to be nearly so lucky so we will crush them when they become adults in due time when they lose that mindblank.

But wait, there's more.

Monford, gesturing at weapons and armour: My daughter...what is this?
Valaena: The proper dress of a Dragonrider, father.
Monford: Pardon me?
Valaena, brightly: Would you like to meet him? He's still small, but according to the King, he should grow swiftly.
Monford: ...

Take a map. Cut it in two. Commune "is it in this half?"
Then you know which half it's in. Cut that half in two again, and repeat.
7 or 8 questions in and you have a crazily small area to search!

Valaena: "Father. It has been too long." Sips bloodwine from the gold-cast, sapphire-encrusted skull of a foe.
Monford: "What."
Valaena: "You simply must tour the Circle of Battle this evening. There's going to be a military parade later, too!"
Monford: "What!"
Valaena: "Oh but not before I take you flying! I have so many stories to tell you. Earlier this month, I delved through jungle ruins and fought a giant snake, and rode a painted lizard on a chase through the Bush!"
Monford: "WHAT?!"
Dawnfyre: "SCREEEEEE"
Valaena: "Oh, this is Dawnfyre! My dragon."
Monford, looking at Viserys, who blinks: "What?"
Viserys: "I'll leave you two to it."
 
You are now imagining the tales of Lord Monford, the man out-Velaryon'd by his daughter.

@Goldfish We should get a scroll of Form of the Dragon I, II or III.

Lya would have ready access to Red Chromatic scales, FWIW.
 
Remember that Valaena is now thinking of magic-assisted sea-based merchant activity.
Oh, and she has the Merlin King's boon so even now she's probably a better seaman than her father.

This seems like a perfectly reasonable standard action to take most of time, any enemy we fight that might be worth bothering to recruit is likely going to interrogated anyways

Yeah and that's what I want to establish, that interviewing fallen enemies we didn't talk with in life is the norm not the exception, because Speak with dead cost us nothing, and Speak with soul only cost a teleport and a Bloodwish.

Valaena, tossing a weighty bag of gold to her father: Here, we can use this to start rebuilding our fleet.
Monford, shocked by the weight of the bag: How did you get this?
Valaena: Investing. I got the seed capital from selling a pair of axes I took off a Whight Captain in the Nightfort.
Monford: I shall not strangle my King, I shall not strangle ky King...
