“He knows. So do L” Dany remembered the horror she had felt when she had seen the Plaza of Punishment in Astapor. I made a horror just as great, but surely they deserved it. Harsh justice is still justice.
　　“Your Grace,” said Missandei, “Ghiscari inter their honored dead in crypts below their manses. if you would boil the bones clean and return them to their kin, it would be a kindness.”
　　The widows will curse me all the same. “Let it be done.” Dany beckoned to Daario. “How many seek audience this morning?”
　　“Two have presented themselves to bask in your radiance.”
　　Daario had plundered himself a whole new wardrobe in Meereen, and to match it he had redyed his trident beard and curly hair a deep rich purple. It made his eyes look almost purple too, as if he were some lost Valyrian. “They arrived in the night on the Indigo Star, a trading galley out of Qarth.”
　　A slaver, you mean. Dany frowned. “Who are they?”
　　“The Star’s master and one who claims to speak for Astapor.”
　　“I will see the envoy first.”
　　He proved to be a pale ferret-faced man with ropes of pearls and spun gold hanging heavy about his neck. “Your Worship!” he cried. “My name is Ghael. I bring greetings to the Mother of Dragons from King Cleon of Astapor, Cleon the Great.”
　　Dany stiffened. “I left a council to rule Astapor. A healer, a scholar, and a priest.”
　　“Your Worship, those sly rogues betrayed your trust. It was revealed that they were scheming to restore the Good Masters to power and the people to chains. Great Cleon exposed their plots and hacked their heads off with a cleaver, and the grateful folk of Astapor have crowned him for his valor.”
　　“Noble Ghael,” said Missandei, in the dialect of Astapor, “is this the same Cleon once owned by Grazdan mo Ullhor?”
　　Her voice was guileless, yet the question plainly made the envoy anxious. “The same,” he admitted. “A great man.”
　　Missandei leaned close to Dany. “He was a butcher in Grazdan’s kitchen,” the girl whispered in her ear. “It was said he could slaughter a pig faster than any man in Astapor.”
　　I have given Astapor a butcher king. Dany felt ill, but she knew she must not let the envoy see it. “I will pray that King Cleon rules well and wisely. What would he have of me?”
　　Ghael rubbed his mouth. “Perhaps we should speak more privily, Your Grace?”
　　“I have no secrets from my captains and commanders.”
　　“As you wish. Great Cleon bids me declare his devotion to the Mother of Dragons. Your enemies are his enemies, he says, and chief among them are the Wise Masters of Yunkai. He proposes a pact between Astapor and Meereen, against the Yunkai’i.”
　　“I swore no harm would come to Yunkai if they released their slaves,” said Dany.
　　“These Yunkish dogs cannot be trusted, Your Worship. Even now they plot against you. New levies have been raised and can be seen drilling outside the city walls, warships are being built, envoys have been sent to New Ghis and Volantis in the west, to make alliances and hire sellswords. They have even dispatched riders to Vaes Dothrak to bring a khalasar down upon you. Great Cleon bid me tell you not to be afraid.
　　Astapor remembers. Astapor will not forsake you. To prove his faith, Great Cleon offers to seal your alliance with a marriage.”
　　“A marriage? To me?”
　　Ghael smiled. His teeth were brown and rotten. “Great Cleon will give you many strong sons.”
　　Dany found herself bereft of words, but little Missandei came to her rescue. “Did his first wife give him sons?”
