Grandpa Universe In Multiverse
Chapter 57: The Flying Carpet

The night came. Alexander, Dobby, and cute little Rina got on the flying carpet. Benjen had also come with them as he was the only one free. Others had their wives or little babies to care for.

"Alright, welcome to Air Universe. Were going to fly all over the north and make the soil fertile. Then we'll go and have a chat with the Freefolks. Are you ready?" Alexander said.

"Yaaaaaay" only Rina shouted.

"Come on guys, show some enthusiasm. At least you should, Benjen. Were about to fly"

"Again, are we READY?"

"Yaaaay" this time everyone shouted.

"Alright then."

Alexander also sat down. There were some cylindrical pillows and a small short-legged table in the center. On which there were some drinks and milkshakes for Rina. The carpet moved upward and then started to go forward. There was wind resistance and an invisible wall around it but, he also let enough wind enter to give them a feeling of flying.

Their first stop was house Umber. They were one of the closest to the wall. There were also some mountain ranges there. Alexander flew around it and did his magic. He made the ground very fertile and pulled a lot of silver and iron from deep under the mountains. He wasn't going to give too many gold mines as that would be counterproductive.

Then he went to Karstarks and did the same to their land and gave them some small goldmines and a major iron mine.

"Argh, the Boltons. I hate them, scheming bastards. Do we really have to help them?" Benjen said in disgust.

"I know how you feel and I also don't wanna help them either, but if they are the only ones who didn't get anything, they would start making trouble. Besides, it's the Smallfolks I'm worried about. I don't want them to face hunger." Alexander explained.

House Bolton, now they were a special case. Even though House Umber and House Karstark were involved in the battle of bastards in the future, they weren't originally defiant. They were loyal to the Starks. But house Bolton had a history of rebellion, they were ambitious and wanted to rule north since the creation of their house.

Hence, Alexander only made enough land fertile to fulfill their food requirements and also gave them a low-quality iron mine. They would most probably not even have enough smallfolks to mine them as he was planning on stealing them.

Then he went to House Flint of widow's watch, Hornwood and Woolfield. Made their lands fertile and gave them small silver mines. Their land was mostly plain so he made it fertile to grow fruits as well. He also had another motive to be there. He was going to make Ramsgate the biggest trading city in the world. A new branch of Iron bank would also be opened there. It would also have the headquarters of the Northern Navy and would be heavily connected with the rest of the world by sea and by land with the help of railways, which he was not planning on making any time soon. First, he needed to make good roads for big carriages.

According to him, there were three types of cities.

1. Tier 1, with a population of 100,000 or less.

2. Tier 2, with a population of more than 100,000 and less than 400,000.

3. Tier 3, with a population of or more than 500,000

He was going to create tier 4 megacities, with a population of more than a million. That would need a lot of planning and money. Plans were ready and he also had money. What he needed now was people, which would soon arrive as well. To make the other Lords not sniff around him, he was also going to visit the Iron Bank in the name of taking a large loan.

Then he flew to House Manderly. They were already one of the richest houses in the north as they had the biggest city and port in the north called White Harbor. The Manderly's loved sailing in seas but lacked ships. He made their lands fertile and also gave them an iron mine which would be used when he gives the designs for the new ships.

"Wow, big city. So pretty" Rina jumped in excitement. At night the city looked quite big with its torches lit. Any city looked good from the sky. The Smelly King's Landing too.

Speaking of King's Landing, the latest news was that Robert had stayed away from prostitutes and seriously started ruling, but Alexander still wasn't sure as Robert had agreed to wed Cersei Lannister for the gold.

"Yes, Rina. But soon we will have an even prettier city near our home." Alexander said while caressing her hair.

Then they flew across the whole north, circling the Swampland of House Reed. It really pained him to see them living in such harsh conditions. They were very loyal to house Stark and yet were made fun of for their attire, eating frogs and whatever they could replace. Northerners call them Bog devils or Frog eaters.

Even their villages are made on artificial islands made out of logs and move around in the swamp and bogs of the Neck. Even the Greywater watch, the seat of House Reed moves around and has no fixed address, hence no ravens can reach them and no Maester is appointed to them.

Alexander didn't know what to give them. They didn't have land for him to make them fertile or mountains to make mines. Then he had an idea.

"Alright guys, we're gonna sleep here tonight. Right on this carpet in the air. Tomorrow we'll meet Lord Reed and give him a gift," Alexander said, looking at the sleepy eyes of Rina.

"What? but can't we just go back and return later?" Benjen asked.

"This is an outing, my boy. The whole point is to stay out... Now go to sleep," Alexander said as the carpet expanded. They all slept the night under the starry sky.

The next morning, Alexander woke up to a little foot planted on his face. He lightly laughed, most people would fear him if they knew his identity but here she was. Happily sleeping, without a care in the world.

The sun had started to rise. Dobby was surprisingly missing and Benjen was snoring.

Alexander slowly stood up to not disturb Rina and walked to Benjen. He was going to wake him up lightly but changed his mind when he heard Benjen sleep talking.

"Hoho... Hey... Pretty lady"

Alexander used his mind art to change the beautiful lady in his dream to woman version of fat Mace Tyrell.

Benjen suddenly woke up with beads of sweat on his face and furrowed brows. Alexander couldn't hold his laughter seeing that.

"So, how was it? humping Mace Tyrell." Alexander asked, still laughing.

"It was you? Argh, I don't think I'll even touch a woman for some days now." He said with a horror-filled face.

Then Alexander went to wake Rina up.

"Hey there sweety. It's morning already," he softly said.

"Aaa... Just a little more," she said, still half asleep.

"Oh, too bad, you'll not be able to see the unicorn then," Alexander said as he made a unicorn Patronus.

Rina quickly jumped up from her sleep with eyes wide open. She looked at the Unicorn and started dancing around it. Then she went to touch it but the Unicorn ran away.

"No... Please don't go." She called out.

"Oh, unicorns are very shy creatures, Rina. But don't worry, I'll take you to see friendly Unicorns later" he promised.

"Now let's eat and go meet Lord Reed," Alexander said.

He gave them simple Egg rice, which they seemed to enjoy greatly. Rice was a new thing for them.

Dobby then returned and sat with them to eat some.

"Where were you, Dobby?" Alexander asked.

"I was checking the animals out. There are many weird ones in this world." Dobby said.

"Yeah. We'll probably replace even more weird stuff when we go east." Alexander said.

...

After they were done, they went down to the swamp and Alexander conjured a boat.

"No matter how many times I see magic, it always feels too good to be real," Benjen said and got onto the boat.

Then they slowly rowed to the location of Greywater Watch. Finding it was not really hard when you looked for it from the sky.

They soon arrived near the castle. Some crannogmen pointed their arrows from the trees.

"Halt, how did you replace this place?" One of them asked. More like threatened to answer.

Dobby the steel wall, stood up and shouted. "Lower your bows. The is your Liege Lord Alexander Stark, Lord of Winterfell. He has personally come to meet Lord Howland Reed."

The men hastily lowered their bows and spoke in a polite tone. "Please forgive us, Lord Stark. It's very rare to see people from other places replace the castle. Please follow this light stream and you'll reach Greywater Watch."

"It's alright, you all are doing your duty. Here, I'm leaving this crate filled with new drinks." He said and magically a crate appeared near a guy. They all believed that they received it by Dobby's hand. Magic was convenient.

Then they moved forward and arrived at the floating Castle. It had a lot of overgrown plants here and there. There was some need for repair too.

They were welcomed by some men at the main gate. He put Rina on his shoulders and walked into the castle.

"Lord Stark, what a surprise, though I am really shocked that you found us so easily without us ever noticing you" Howland reed came.

Howland was just a bit older than Ned and was already the Lord of House Reed.

"Oh, come on son. No need for all this politeness with me. Just call me uncle like Ned." Alexander laughingly said.

Howland and his people were a bit shocked by Alexander's relaxed manners. They were happy none the less. They already had enough troubles living, and now a Great Lord had come to whom they had to serve. They didn't have the money or resources to give a big welcome.
