(Cyrus's POV)
"I'm lucky I know how to cook fish...." I said as I sat next to a small campfire, which was lit, eating cooked fish, "Those fishing trips with the old man back when I was 10 paid off, hm?"
I had made my way down the coast, and I found a small camp next to the waters and by some coincidence, there was what I assumed a fishing line with a small hook. Fortunately, I vaguely remembered my dad fishing like that when I was young, so I mimicked what he did.
After catching a few fish, I lit the campfire and began to cook the fish. There was some pieces of wood that were lying around; I am assuming whoever this camp belonged to left them there.
I was sitting down, feeling the night wind hit my body. Despite feeling the wind, I did not feel cold at all. Maybe it was the effect of the devil fruit ability, which had my body made out of flames. I still don't understand what the whole situation is, but I know that I have the power of a Logia Devil Fruit.
Logias are the rarest form of Devil Fruits and the most powerful, allowing the user to transform their bodies into an element at will. They can also produce and control that element, making them an incredibly powerful ability.
And I have the Flame Logia, allowing me to turn my body into flames. I can produce and control flames, that much I know.
I took a bite of the fish, "Tch...." I said as I looked at the flames, "What a crazy predicament I have gotten myself in..."
I apparently died in my sleep and reincarnated in the body of someone here? T
Planetos, the world of Ice and Fire, that is where I am. I don't know much about this world; I didn't read the books or watch the shows. But I know that in Game of Thrones, there was that one girl with three dragons. Is this during that time? I don't know, it's too dark for me to see where I am. Maybe I am in that one city where the King lives.
I also know that one Snow dude, that's pretty much it. He has a white wolf.
But anything other than that, I am at a loss. I know more about One Piece than A Song of Ice and Fire.
I sighed, "shit...." I said, "Should have read more books, dammit."
I heard some footsteps near me, "Hey!"
I looked up to see a group of men walking up to me, the light of the campfire illuminating the scowls on their faces. I noticed that they were wearing clothes, dirty, but not shredded like the ones on my body.
"Can I help you?" I asked
They stood next to the campfire, "You son of a whore!" one of them said, "What the hell are you doing at our spot?!"
I was holding the cooked fish in my hand, "Oh." I said, "Sorry, I didn't know this was your spot. I can move if you want."
The tallest one drew a knife, "You're not going anywhere." He said with a glare, "Give us any valuables you have. Now."
I took a bite of the meat of the fish, "I have nothing."
He stepped forwards, "I'm not playing around." He said with an angry tone, "Hand it over!!"
I shrugged, "I literally have nothing." I said, "I don't want any trouble. And trust me, you don't want it either."
He grabbed my shoulder and I watched as he thrust the knife at my throat, "Die then."
It was a strange feeling; I felt the knife go inside my throat, but I felt no pain or discomfort. I just felt something go in, it's hard to explain.
"Oh....." I said
The guy frowned, "W-What?"
I heard the flickering of a flame as the man stepped back, letting go of the knife as the light of the flames shone on his body.
"What the fuck?!" the others said with shock, "F-Flames?"
I pulled the knife out of my neck, seeing that the blade was red hot, "You guys attacked me, right?" I said, "I am afraid that you're going to hand over your clothes."
"What the fuck are you?!" the tallest one exclaimed, "Some kind of demon?!"
I stood up, "Hmm...." I said,
"Something like that."

(Third Person POV)
[The Next Morning]
"I swear I saw it, Alyssa." Saera said as she was sitting on the chair inside her eldest sister's chambers, "It was like some sort of fire spirit, or a fire demon!"
Alyssa was in front of her mirror, combing her hair, "Demon?" She said, "What are you talking about?"
"The man was dead, Alyssa." Saera said, a look of wonder in her eyes, "And he rose from the sand, his wounds healed!"
Alyssa stopped combing and looked at her, "Huh?"
"And my Knight swung his sword at his neck, cutting it off!" Saera said, a hint of excitement in her voice, "But there were flames instead of blood! And his head returned to normal!"
"What are you saying?" Alyssa frowned, "That this man, whoever he was, rose from the dead and was beheaded.....but he was unharmed?"
Saera nodded frantically, "Yes!"
"You must've been seeing things." Alyssa said, "No matter what, nobody can survive beheading, sister."
"But it is true!" Saera exclaimed, "I saw it with my own eyes."
"I am glad you're finding the time to have imagination, Saera." Alyssa said, "Rather than going around and bothering our servants and tormenting our knights' squires. Not only that, I trust that you're calming down in.....other aspects....?"
Saera frowned, "What does it matter to you?"
"If Father finds out, he will not be happy." She said, "Anyways, I am flying to the Eyrie to see Daella. She had a child. Do you want to go with me? Mother is also going."
"No, I will stay." Saera leaned back, crossing her arms
"You're too cruel to Daella." Alyssa said
The doors opened and Baelon walked inside the room, a serious expression on his face, "Saera, you're here." He said, "I heard you were taking a walk in the beach yesterday."
Saera looked at him, "What if I was?"
"Well, you best tell me what exactly did you see." Baelon said
"She says she saw a fire demon." Alyssa said as she kept combing her hair, "Can you believe that?"
Baelon looked at her, "A fire demon?" He said, "I see...."
"You don't believe me?" Saera frowned, looking to the side
"Four bodies were discovered on the coast. Judging from the City Watch claims, they were nothing but ruffians and thieves." Baelon said, "One of them was stripped of his clothes, but all of them had burn marks on their bodies, a seared hand."
Alyssa looked at him, "What?"
Baelon nodded, "Yea, it's something alright."
Saera looked at him, "It must have been him!" She said,
"The fire demon!"
