Seventh Moon, 132 AC | Braavos

GYLORO OTHERYS - THE SEALORD OF BRAAVOS

The dinner arrayed on the trestle table made him salivate. Two maid-servants and the head chef of his residence were in the intimate dining room next to said trestle table, ready to serve them. Gyloro and his family took their seats around the dining table. As their patriarch, he...

AEGON

Like every other night for most of this last year, sleep did not come to Aegon. He thought of having a servant bring him dreamwine, but he decided against it. The maester had told him n...

Incoming Changes to the Patreon

I'm almost out of university (i'm just about to begin my final year), and with the end of university, one has to think of what comes next, career-wise. Sad to say, my country is riddled with unemployment, corruption and therefore my chances of securing a stable job are quite low despite having a decree.

In regard to this, I'll use what I earn here to sustain me in the interim, and for me ...

BAELA

Second Moon, 132 AC | The Narrow Sea

This was the final lap she would make in her patrol, Baela swore. The entirety of the night and the morning had been spent atop Silverwing, flying circles over Shame Isle, watching for any new fleets sailing from the West to invade the south-western most isle of the Stepstones. Sleep was heavy beneath her e...

ALIANDRA NYMEROS MARTELL

Tenth Moon, 131 AC | Sunspear

The sky outside the Tower of the Sun was grey; fitting, Aliandra supposed. The sun had been absent since the day her father had died, two turns of the moon ago. Maester Maldon might have claimed that it was only the winter grey hiding the sun, but Aliandra had lived through other winters, and in...

DALTON GREYJOY - THE RED KRAKEN

First Moon, 132 AC | The Westerlands

The Kraken King surged through the waters of the Sunset Sea with great speed, its oars rising and falling into the sea with the rhythm of the drums. In the east, the full moon was already in the sky, it’s silver sheen reflecting off the waters as they sailed onward....

BAELA

Her head was pounding as she slumped on her feather-bed in her and her sister’s suite in the Archon’s Palace. The lapping of the waves of the midnight sea reached her through the high windows she had just ordered opened, but it did little and less to soothe the ache. A heavy groan left her when her handmaid, D...

LYSANDRO ROGARE - THE MAGNIFICENT

Tenth Moon, 131AC | Lys

The scent of seawater and the songs of seagulls floated through his open floor-to-ceiling window, gently awakening him from his slumber. His primary residence was built with an oceanfront view, and every morning he woke up to the sight of the tide receding into the sea. He rolled out of bed e...

VISERYS 

Like he had done since the day he arrived here, Viserys toured the camp of their army. It was evening, fishing vessels were bringing in catches for the camp's evening meal. He had eaten nothing but seafood for the past six days, and frankly, Viserys was getting tired of it. F...

THE NORTHMAN, THE DRAGON’S TOOTH  | ELDRIC UMBER

“Faster!” Edric beckoned the squire who was pulling the latch to tie the breast-plate to his body, anger clear in his voice. The boy was a lazy one, and Eldric would ensure left his service as soon as they had returned from this mission. Edric Umber was no...

CORLYS VELARYON

As was the custom engrained by his grandfather since he was but a boy, Corlys arrived at the small council chambers earlier than the meeting was set to begin. His granddaughters were with him. Both were dressed in black garb with accents of red, Rhaena in a gown, and Baela...

BAELA

“What a fucking shitshow!” Baela said as she walked into the Queen’s apartments that she now shared with her sister. Aegon and four of the newly appointed Kingsguard were following them. She shut the door and slumped into a settee in the lounge area of the antechamber once i...

THE QUEEN DOWAGER

7th Day, Seventh Moon, 131 AC | King’s Landing

Dawn found Alicent Hightower standing on the balcony of her chambers, looking towards the rising sun. A lifetime ago, morning meant a new day, a day full of promise and hope. Dragons were dancing in the brightening sky, a large silver one diving into the bay, a smaller pink one follo...

18th Day, Fourth Moon, 131 AC | Tumbleton

Seven days of hard riding south-east brought them to Tumbleton, a host of Northmen riding with her, just as Rhaena had promised. Lord Stark’s men could not to return to the North, for winter was at hand, and their presence would only serve to burden those lands and cause famine and lack. Ten of the e...

10th Day, Fourth Moon, 131AC | The Red Keep - King’s Landing

AEGON

It was drizzling as dusk approached. There would be a storm that night, Aegon knew, judging by the clouds present in the sky. He walked to the balcony, on the kingly chambers that were now his, to watch the storm clouds gather in the late afternoon sky. He had always enjoyed watchi...

LARYS STRONG

The Clubfoot paced his cell frantically from one end to the other. He was barefoot, so none of the guards could hear the pittapatta of his steps. Something was wrong, very wrong. He still felt the presence of the one he had been ordained to destroy. Like he ha...

BAELA

Baela swung her wooden sword swiftly, feigning right but instead going left, striking Rhaena's right wrist and making her drop her own sword. Before she could recover, Baela pointed her sword at her sister’s throat.

“Dead," she exclaimed as their chests rose and fell in he...

CORLYS VELARYON

He woke up from his dream, nay, his nightmare, gasping, with beads of cold sweat trickling down his brow and staining his weathered tunic. He sat up gingerly, the pain in his hip reminding him that he was no longer a young man, reminding him that he was bro...
