The Neck-288 AC

Harry stood in a small open field surrounded by trees with Ser Rodrick, Lord Howland Reed, Morna Snow and over a dozen of the more experienced warriors among the crannogmen.

Cave beyond The Wall-288 AC

The cavern was silent. The only noise that remained was the quiet rasping of the soulless body of Brynden Rivers. The few Children of the forest that remained in the room were staring at him with gazes filled with apprehension and fear.

While Harry never liked it when people feared him, he...

The Green -288 AC

Harry found himself being dragged through a kaleidoscope of colours at a speed that would have left him dizzy if it was happening in the mortal world. As it stood though, he just found himself becoming pissed off.

He had long left the trail that he was on behind. Entering deeper into the Green than he wou...

Greywater Watch- 288 AC

The next morning found Harry and Lord Reed standing outside of a small hut made of wood near the edge of the water on the edge of Greywater Watch itself.  Ser Rodrick was given more time off which he accepted, and happily made his way to the local equivalent of a tavern to drink his day away.

Greywater Watch-288 AC

The Godswood used by the people of Greywater Watch is unique in Harry’s opinion. Where Winterfell’s Godswood was found in the middle of a forest and surrounded by nature, the Godswood Harry and Lord Reed went to for magic training was situated on a small island in the middle of the lake that the castle was resting on. The Hearttree in the middle...

Greywater Watch

‘Moat Cailin is a ruin.’

Intellectually Harry already knew this. He had read all the books he could find that pertains to the North and had devoted a great deal of time learning about the strongholds and castles in particular. He knew that Moat Cailin had seen better days, that it was allowed to fall into ruin. Still knowing something an...

How to Win with Trade

Sitting in the back of the forge on top of a wooden box, Hadrian wiped the sweat off of his face with a rag before taking a gulp of water out of his mug. He grimaced slightly at the warmth of the water but continued drinking it nonetheless.

Apprenticing for Winterfell’s blacksmith Mikken is not what he imagined it would be like to learn to smith. At first, Hadrian was excited to learn h...

Clash

The wooden practice swords collided together sending tremors through Hadrian’s hand.

‘Duck’ The thought came just in time for him to put it into action. His opponents sword came just over his head, barely grazing the top of his helm. Unfortunately the hasty duck left him unbala...

Plans

It didn’t take Hadrian long teach the farmers a method to increase their yields. More specifically he decided to teach four- field crop rotation. He noticed that the farmers would often leave a part of the field fallow. He had to make them replace the fallow fields with turnips or clover instead of the usual corn. The idea was to use the turnips and clover to feed livestock so that farmers co...

Getting Started

I know it’s been a while but some things in life have been getting in the way lately. I just finished moving a few months ago and had to get used to a completely new routine that didn’t leave much time for writing. I actually had this chapter finished a little while ago but decided to wait until I could write a few chapters ahead so I could more easily keep to a set schedule from no...
