    "the last we see of Cersei for a few chapters"
    "For a few chapters"
    ! :O what do you mean!??! >:U
    She's supposed to be dead! щ(゜▽゜щ)
    (& Jaime too (ノ｀△´)ノ

     

    Uumm, how will it tally up to 5 kings ? Or are you just calling it that to indicate what part we're moving on to?

     

    Hmmm, who will be the next to command Percy? It has to be a Baratheon by blood, right? Will it be Stannis as the rightful heir after Robert or maybe it's Shireen?
    Or possibly Renly because he's Lord of Storm's End and Percy's loyalty or the magic compels him to obey or something?
    Maybe Gendry as Robert's eldest son or Mya Stone as the eldest & 1st born?
    It CANNOT be Joffrey , like no, that's crazy.
    (And pleeeaase , not JonSnow either)

     

    I await answers whenever next chapter is ready for consumption!
    Thanks

      She'll be mentioned and seen in the upcoming chapters, but could no longer be classified as a main character in the next arc.
      The reference of the War of Five Kings was just an indication of the timeline being moved up a little bit. If there are going to be Five Kings, well, let's just say a lot of them aren't going to last long for whatever reason.
      I can say that one of your guesses was correct, but I'll narrow it down as say that the magic goes to the closest of blood kin, which in GoT terminology, must mean that they are trueborn. In either case, the only way Jon Snow would have next Perseus's next master if he was the trueborn child of Robert and Lyanna, which isn't the case for two reasons. One, Robert and Lyanna were betrothed, but never married, and two, Robert isn't Jon's father in this fic.

        Yes good 👍 No more inside Cersei's delulu head.

        Ok , Wo5K was a reference for the timeline, gotcha 👍
        Haha 😄 tru dat! Anyone claims a crown this time won't be around for much longer-term.

         

        Ooh~ I was right with one of my guesses? Nice 👍 now for a process of elimination ...

        I only added JonSnow at the last partly as a joke but mostly bcz I've seen many other stories change him to Main Character or Super Special Jon , elevating him in many and more ways to put other characters down with the most bull reasons or just because they want to (which valid enough, you do you) but it's so annoying and frustrating bcz I am tired of JonSnow .

         

        Anyways, sorry about that rant

         

        I hope the next Baratheon utilizes Perseus better and makes short work of this inevitable war.

         

        (Will Renly do something? Will he try to claim Kingship? Oh boy I kinda hope he does and then Percy puts him in his place and makes Renly and his Tyrell cohorts tremble in fear and stop their foolishness. )

         

        That reminds me, does Perseus know the truth about JonSnow too? Is Jon a bastard of R+L or (N or B) +Ashara? Does he know the truth of Lyanna's disappearance and where she was hiding / being kept with Rĥaegar ?

        Will Percy confront Ned about the lies he's told or that he should have told Robert the truth about Lyanna and maybe Robert could have grown as a person, grieved for a time for what was lost and what could have been then moved on and made do with what you have left, instead of Robert wallowing in the past and giving in to his vices?

         

        Off track question:
        Could Perseus clean up King's Landing and get rid of the shit infestation and smell by purging the sewers with water ?? and maybe making a way for there to be running water afterwards so the shit doesn't pile and clog like before? 🤔
        Like theoretically, with his powers , is it feasible?

        Thank you for responding

          I like Jon Snow and he is a main character in some of my other fics, but he'll barely make an appearance here if he even does at all. As for his identity, I haven't yet fully decided. I am leaning away from R+L, but nothing for certain as of this moment. Stannis and Renly will make an attempt at Kingship, as will Joffrey obviously, but Perseus will be utilized a lot more openly now, and that means revealing his abilities to the Seven Kingdoms, and beyond, in its entirety. As for King's Landing, his primary powers that will be referenced in this fic are those of his less utilized in canon, i.e. storm manipulation and earthquake generation (Hence the Destroyer), but that doesn't mean that his water powers aren't present as well. Theoretically speaking, Perseus could probably clean all of King's Landing sewers at the same time, there's a reason why one of the tag's is 'Godlike Percy Jackson', but the true question is whether his next master has the motivation to do such on such a large scale, and also what would he do with the shit-infested water? It would be amusing for Perseus to drop it over what remains of the Lannister army, but it would likely wreak havoc on whatever ecosystem it goes to, and it's not like Perseus has a green thumb to vanish it into thin air without consequence. He could probably create a brand-new stream, or perhaps even fountains, within King's Landing, but once again, will he be asked to? As you might notice, Perseus seems to make a habit of only doing what he is told, to the letter, and you can make of that as you will.
