Renfred Rykker, Lord of Duskandale watched as the banners of House Stokeworth, Buckwell, and Staunton approached. The morning sun cast a golden glow over the marching columns, their colorful sigils fluttering proudly in the breeze. The green and white of House Stokeworth, the blue and gold of House Buckwell, and the black and white of House Staunton moved in unison.

90: Redoing my Life, The Oscars pt.1

Today was the day of the Oscars, and I had begun preparations for it since morning. The makeup artists had arrived early and had set up in the room they always used. I sat on the makeup chair as they buzzed around me, applying makeup and styling my hair. This was not something I looked forward to when attending events, but it was part of the process.

Rhaenys 

Castle Hayford 

Rhaenys was still having trouble believing what had happened. 

Their journey from Duskendale back to King's Landing had been fairly uneventful until they were ambushed as they passed through House Hayford's lands.

The memory came to her mind like a vivid nightmare.

The final book in the Percy Jackson series was released to the expected reception. It was selling well, and the fans of the book series liked the ending.

However, the same could not be said for 12 Angry Men. While it had made its money back, it wouldn’t be making much more as other movies had taken too much of the audience away. 

Despite this, the studi...

I watched cars and pedestrians pass by the café where I was sitting. The place was alive with activity: cars honked as they navigated through traffic, and people hurried along the sidewalks, engrossed in their own worlds.
