50.A Shift of Fate
1st of September 1993, Wednesday (Same Day)Harry Potter "I-I can't breathe," Diana wheezed out, and Harry realised his magic had been flaring. "Sorry," he offered awkwardly, rubbing the back of his neck, reining in his magic. Sirius had warned him that his presence had become dangerous, but Harry had thought his godfather had been joking because what did that even mean? Taking a better look, it seemed Draco wasn't making trouble for the Muggle-born girl, but merely speaking to her. Amiably. Harry…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

5.The Wingless Maiden
Year 129 After Aegon's ConquestRhaena Targaryen A storm was brewing. It was not going to be a storm of wind and rain and thunder, but one that would shake her life—she just knew it. Everything looked calm on the surface, but Rhaena knew better. The House of the Dragon was divided ever since she and her sister were born, and Rhaena felt things wouldn't be resolved so simply, despite everyone's reassurances to the contrary. Her father and stepmother, Princess Rhaenyra, were growing more tense by the…- 185.8 K • Completed

5.Creeping Shadows
258 AC, Beyond the Wall The Betrayed Lord Commander No wonder everything was different. Jon had half a mind to believe that he had indeed awakened in the year 258 after Aegon’s Conquest—Bloodraven looked like a spry old man despite entering his ninth decade, not a corpse or a shrivelled old relic of nearly a hundred and thirty years. Even the luckiest men could scarcely live over a hundred, and even old man Aemon looked like a single gust of wind would topple him after surviving a century. At…- 202.5 K • Ongoing

5.Conversations
Jon Snow He looked at the piece of metal in his hand with a grimace. It looked like a sword, but that was about it. The blade was slightly twisted, the edge uneven, and he had a feeling that it would most probably break after a dozen hard blows. At least he stopped getting cracks after quenching his work, if it could even be called that. It was not even an issue of craftsmanship but magic. Weaving magic into things often had unpredictable results. Iron and steel were particularly inert to magic,…- 401.2 K • Ongoing

5.A New Beginning
1st of September Harry's shirt was soaked, beads of sweat ran down his brow, and if someone looked at him, they would have thought that he had swum with his clothes on. His mouth stayed shut, the yew wand in his hand swished and flicked, and he tried to push all his intent and focus into levitating the book before him. It did not work. He tried again and again until he was gasping for breath as if he had run a marathon. In all honesty, it was not far off since he had gone for a long and exhausting…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

5. A Warning Heeded
Davos Seaworth Dragonstone Despite Maester Cressen's fears, Stannis had finally awoken three days ago. They still had no idea what had started the fire, the claw knight had grown highly paranoid, and the fortress's defences had been tightened to the extreme. Not even a rat could enter without the knowledge of the master-at-arms. Worse, the Lord of Dragonstone was in great pain, and his throat couldn't produce anything beyond raspy coughs or pained wheezes. And thus, he was still stuck here, unable…- 671.1 K • Completed

49.Usurpers and Pretenders
16th Day of the 11th MoonThe Spider On days like this, Varys could not help but marvel at the whim of the gods. A furious storm had raged through the narrow sea for days, and many ships were sunk. Better yet, the direwolf and mermen sails had not been seen arriving anywhere from Gulltown to the Pebbles. It seemed like wolves made for poor swimmers. The Spider cared little about godly matters, but was this what it meant to have divine favour? A king's death was a heavy blow, and someone had to take…- 671.1 K • Completed

49.Interlude-Tumultuous Summer
21st of June 1993Monday (6 days later)Sirius Black He felt apprehensive about meeting with his old friend for the first time in over a decade. After Wormtail's betrayal, a grain of doubt lingered in Sirius's mind. For how long had Peter spied on them for Voldemort? Was it since they were in school? Did he ever truly know him? What about Remus? Sirius was unsure if his apprehension stemmed from meeting his friend after so long, or if he was just miffed it had taken a year and a half to finally get word…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

48.Turning Point
9th Day of the 11th MoonGarlan Tyrell, somewhere on the Rose Road "The Lannisters are not our foes," his father pointed out righteously. "Eddard Stark is an honourable man. He would never conspire against His Grace." Garlan had to give it to the Lord of Storm's End; he knew how to stay composed, although the knight could feel Renly's patience was dwindling. Loras and the king's youngest brother had caught up to them yesterday, just a few days from Bitterbridge. Now, they were resting under a green…- 671.1 K • Completed

48.Trust
Beginning of June 1993Harry Potter "We don't need to trust Dumbledore to use him," Juno said when he shared his conversation with Helena Ravenclaw. "What we can trust in is his commitment to stand against the Dark Lord." The two of them gathered in the Chamber of Secrets again, the lone desk joined by two sofas and a lacquered ebony table laden with snacks and steaming cups of tea prepared by Wally. Harry never imagined this dreadful place could be cosy or welcoming, but Juno managed to make it…- 469.5 K • Ongoing
