It's mid-March already, the time is flying, and Westeros is getting closer and closer to Arena of Honor's mid-season, and [N0X]OliverQ is on a good pace to get to the Glory King rank hopefully in less than 5 rounds. Despite being his first season, not having a team and not being among the strong warriors in Westeros, he played his soul out and managed to do well in all the rounds he participated. His effort wasn't in vain as he slowly but surely climbed the ranks and its now just 1 win away of getting the King ranking, the last step before the Glory King.

Prior to round 6 he prepared as good as he possibly could, strengthen his army, train more soldiers to join his ranks and on Sunday, 16th of March when the sun was setting, he rallied his troops and marched to the Mercenary Camp for another solo adventure. Upon arriving there, he signed the registration forms, submitted them and then waited for the Old Gods to finish the matchmaking.

Once the matchmaking was done, the leaders of the 6 houses fighting in Arena of Honor got out to pick their warriors for this fight. OliverQ was picked by Daenerys Targaryen to fight for House Targaryen this round and along with him Daenerys also picked [PRa]cengizz, [mmt]Fleurtje, [TFI]Slow Roasted, [FtP]Emkao, [HeT]Ao6puhr V, [tSB]La perruche, [tSF]RunForest, [HVL]Eltos. It was the first time he was seeing these warriors on battlefield but that didn't discourage OliverQ as he was focused on getting the win if possible.

Upon entering the battlefield, the team headed South-West towards House Targaryen's Clan Castle and upon arriving there, every warrior deployed their troops and got ready for the battle. In the few minutes left before the fight start OliverQ performed a quick inspection of the battlefield to see whom his team fights against. All the houses were looking decently strong beside House Lannister, that invited a premade team again and they were looking tough to beat.
Just before the fight started [tSB[La perruche asked to be the commander on the battlefield for House Targaryen saying that he's very familiar with the Arena of Honor and he could help the team win. Everyone agreed to his request, and he was appointed as commander but is he up to the challenge or he was misleading the team? Let's see.

The fight started with the opening of the first 7 strongholds and warriors rushed to occupy and reinforce them in order to level them up as quickly as possible. After the 2 minutes required to occupy them, they opened for construction and Oliver Q left that duty to his team's commander, hoping he'll actually choose wisely but as he was kind of slow OliverQ decided to take the initiative and seeing that House Greyjoy, the house directly attacking House Targaryen builds Trading Posts he decided to also build Trading Posts and try to fight for City of Glory when it opens.
As the fight progressed altars started opening and House Targaryen's main focus was the Altar of the Maiden, to increase their points per minute generation, but the other altars were also in their sight. OliverQ had his eyes on the freshly opened Altar of the Maiden, and he quickly assembled a solo and went for it but upon arriving he noticed the altar was occupied by [GeN]ROTT7 and his cavalry. OliverQ decided to give him a run for his money anyway.

OliverQ managed to win, just barely, and since he remained unchallenged for the 2 minutes needed to occupy the altar, it went into House Targaryen's possession. Things were going very good for House Targaryen, they were on the first place in points, despite House Lannister managing to occupy House Baratheon's Clan Castle.

Another set of altars opened for attacks and OliverQ targeted House Lannister's Altar of the Maiden, he sent a quick solo and upon arriving he noticed [WAK]Ambicatus residing there. OliverQ presented him the eviction notice and upon refusing to leave the premises, a fight emerged between the 2.

And just like that, another Altar of the Maiden fell into House Targaryen's hands and their points generation increased. Despite all their efforts the team couldn't put a decisive points margin between them and House Lannister's team and now it was time for the most important building, City of Glory, to open for attacks. As expected as soon as it opened, House Lannister rushed to occupy 'it and everyone in their team reinforced quickly, resulting into an almost impenetrable line of bows on the walls.

Despite that, House Targaryen decided to fight for the City of Glory as it was their only chance as winning this round. First one that challenged Deathjealous was La perruche and his cavalry.

Deathjealous was too strong for La perruche and House Targaryen had to admit defeat for now at least. While the protection bubble set on City of Glory, OliverQ took the opportunity to clear some altars of unwanted visitors.

Once the protection bubbled dropped on City of Glory, House Targaryen's warriors tried a few more rallies in hopes they could win and flip the City of Glory. Sadly, none of the warriors in House Targaryen was strong enough to kick Deathjealous out of the building and after several tried, House Targaryen had to sadly admit defeat and admit that they couldn't get 1st place on this fight. However, they continued fighting for altars until the end of the battle. At the end of the battle, all their efforts were noticeable as despite House Lannister having the City of Glory and 1 more Clan Castle they didn't win by a huge margin of points.

Excelent effort from House Targaryen, that was repaid at the end with a well-deserved 2nd place along with 20 glory points. That puts OliverQ one step closer to his immediate goal of reaching the King's rank. He took his rewards and the glory points and marched happily back to [N0X] castle, where he'll be eagerly waiting for the next round of Arena of Honor. See you all on the battlefield!
