“So?” Shepard asked, as he had been waiting for the STG to go over the data in the labs.
Kirrahe finally stepped away from the computer. “It is as you theorized, Commander; there was nothing about the genophage to cause worry, though we did destroy the cloning lab.”
And wasn’t that a load off his back?
“Alright, we’ll be takin...

The banquet would start before noon, followed by the auction, so Robert decided to make use of his time by meeting with several of his guests, starting with Jon and Elbert.
He told them the tale of his adventure in Valyria, from the walking corpses and the monsters roughly in the shape of a human to the damn Archdemon and how he slew it. Elbert was impressed,...

Robert had the gold to fund multiple projects at once, but not the qualified manpower. Hiring enough to work on all the projects at once would leave the workers without a job as construction efforts calmed down, and coupled with the lack of management personnel, they decided to finish the projects in order, starting with the Auction House.

Robert effortlessly lifted the horn, in stark contrast to the four men who struggled to even carry it. It was half a foot shorter than he was tall, warm to the touch, and banded with red gold and Valyrian steel. Whatever dragon it was taken from, the beast was far larger than any of his own.
The surface was shiny and reflective, though it distorted his image...
