GEORGE R.R. MARTIN
THE ARMS OF THE
KRAKEN
THE PROPHET
Aeron Damphair was drowning men on Great Wyk when they came to tell him that the king was dead.
It was a bleak cold morning, and the sea was as leaden as the sky. The first three men had offered their lives to the Drowned God fearlessly, but the fourth was weak in faith, and began to struggle as his lungs cried out for air. Standing waist deep in the surf, Aeron seized the naked boy by the shoulders and pushed his head back down as he tried to snatch a breath. Have courage. he said. We came from the sea, and to the sea we must return. Open your mouth and drink deep of gods blessing. Fill your lungs with water, that you may die and be reborn. It does no good to fight.
Either the boy could not hear him with his head beneath the waves, or else his faith had utterly deserted him. He began to kick and thrash so wildly that Aeron had to call for help. Four of his drowned men waded out to seize the wretch and hold him under water. Lord God who drowned for us, the priest prayed, in a voice as deep as the sea, let Emmond your servant be reborn From the sea, as you were. Bless him with salt, bless him with stone, bless him with steel.
Finally it was done. No more air was bubbling from his mouth, and all the strength had gone out of his limbs. Face down in the shallow sea floated Lmmond, pale and cold and peaceful.
That was when the Damphair realized that three horsemen had joined his drowned men on the pebbled shore. Aeron knew The Sparr, a hatchet-faced old man with watery eyes whose quavery voice was law on this part of Great Wyk, His son Steffarion accompanied him, with another youth whose dark red fur-lined cloak was pinned at the shoulder with a ornate brooch that showed the black-and-gold warhorn of the Goodbrothers. One of Gorolds sons, the priest decided at a glance. Three tall sons had been born to Goodbrothers wife late in We, after a dozen daughters, and it was said that no man could tell one son from the others
