Lynd took the latest intelligence booklet, opened it, and quickly scanned it, soon finding what he wanted to know.
The first thing was that a few months ago, Bronze Yohn Royce, the Lord of Runestone in the Vale, sent his youngest son, Waymar Royce, to the Wall to become a Night's Watchman.
If nothing had changed, this Waymar Royce would die at the hands of the Others during a routine patrol shortly thereafter.
The second matter came from the Walrusmen, with whom Daisy had trade relations, who discovered traces of wight activity at the edge of the Eternal Winter Land, upstream of the Frozen River.
After Daisy returned to Bear Island, she followed Lynd's instructions and began to contact the Savage Tribes north of the Wall.
Due to Lynd's reputation Beyond the Wall, she quickly established relations with the Walrusmen of the Frozen Coast and initiated a series of trade exchanges.
Because Daisy provided armor and weapons to the Walrusmen, their villages repeatedly won battles against the cannibal tribes, which in turn greatly improved the relationship between the Walrusmen and Bear Island.
Daisy even hired a troop of Walrusmen's polar bear soldiers to join her army.
The Nights Watch was also displeased with Daisy's trading with the Beyond the Wall Wildlings, but they could only express their displeasure, because everyone knew that although Daisy was nominally under Winterfell's jurisdiction, she actually pledged allegiance to Linde Terra.
Not to mention Lynd's friendliness and assistance to the Wall, Lynd's own strength alone was enough for the Nights Watch of the Wall to treat him cautiously.
Therefore, the Wall also turned a blind eye to Daisy's actions.
In fact, the Nights Watch saw Daisy making a lot of money from various trades with the Wildlings, and they were very envious, trying to contact the Savage Tribes, hoping to get a share of it, but because of the Nights Watch's bad reputation among the Wildlings in the past, their contact with the Savage Tribes had always been unsatisfactory.
The third matter came from the Wall: Velas discovered a hidden underground tunnel in Icehold.
The tunnel extended deep into the Wall and formed a huge underground altar within it.
The bodies of the three hundred Night's Watchmen who disappeared from Icehold over a hundred years ago were all found at the altar.
Afterward, Velas stayed in the altar and never left it, and internal chaos also appeared within the Nights Watch organization.
After Velas joined the Nights Watch, due to his status and his past support and assistance to the Nights Watch, he quickly became the second most important figure in the Nights Watch, second only to Old Bear.
In terms of influence, he was even above Old Bear.
Moreover, with the expansion of the Nights Watch personnel and the re-activation of various outposts, Old Bear's abilities were no longer sufficient to handle the daily affairs of the Nights Watch, so Velas became the shadow Commander of the Nights Watch, presiding over various Nights Watch affairs on behalf of Old Bear.
It was precisely for this reason that when Velas secluded himself in the altar and stopped handling other external affairs, the Nights Watch organization lost its crucial backbone, and it was only natural that it fell into administrative chaos.
Old Bear was now unable to manage the vast Nights Watch organization, which had swelled to fifty thousand members, and could only decentralize power to the Commanders of each outpost, allowing them to manage themselves.
After reading this intelligence report, Lynd closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then wrote three letters and had Jon send them to the Wall and Bear Island respectively.
The letter sent to Bear Island was mainly to instruct Daisy to pay attention to the situation on the Frozen Coast and to be ready to transfer the Walrusmen to Bear Island at any time.
The letters sent to the Wall were given to Old Bear and Velas respectively.
The content of the letter to Old Bear was simple: it informed him that the wights north of Bear Island had already advanced south.
The letter to Velas directly asked him what he intended to do.
Lynd had been in contact with Velas for several years, but he had never asked Velas about his purpose for going to the Wall.
However, he now felt it was necessary to ask to prevent Velas's actions from conflicting with his own plans.
After writing the three letters, Lynd asked Jon for information on King's Landing.
Regarding the war that might occur in the future, Lynd did not intend to directly stop it.
He now desperately needed a large-scale war to break the millennium-old system of the Seven Kingdoms, but the premise was that the development of this war must be controlled in his own hands.
Soon, the latest information on King's Landing fell into Lynd's hands.
This information consisted of two parts: one sent by Varys and the other by his own intelligence agents stationed in King's Landing.
In the information sent by Varys, it was mentioned that Hand of the King Jon Arryn had secretly met with King Robert's several bastards in King's Landing, and then went to Storms End to meet Edric Storm, the publicly acknowledged bastard fostered there.
Clearly, Jon Arryn had begun to suspect that Joffrey and others were not Robert's biological children.
Furthermore, not long ago, Lysa Tully had another miscarriage, which was her fourth.
There were also indications that the fetuses from Lysa Tully's two miscarriages after giving birth to Robert might have been Littlefinger Petyr Baelish's, and the person who caused her miscarriages was very likely Jon Arryn.
As for the intelligence provided by his own intelligence agents, it did not involve matters within the Red Keep, but rather information about King's Landing.
Among them, what Lynd paid most attention to was that High Sparrow had settled down in Flea Bottom and was preaching there.
Lynd had always been following High Sparrow; this person's true name was no longer traceable, and he first appeared in Oldtown's Starry Sept, only traveling the Seven Kingdoms as a preaching monk.
Now that High Sparrow had settled in King's Landing, it should also be due to the special nature of the Great Sept of Baelor.
The Seven Gods Church throughout the Seven Kingdoms followed Lynd's lead, but only the Great Sept of Baelor was controlled by the Red Keep, and Lynd had not infiltrated it.
If High Sparrow wanted to make a difference in the church, the Great Sept of Baelor was his only opportunity.
