41.Sand Castles
9th Day of the 9th MoonThe Lord of Storm's End Renly could not remember the last time Robert had called for an emergency small council meeting. It must have been a pretty dire reason if his royal brother managed to turn away his attention from his wine and whores. Surprisingly, Baelish was absent. Renly could not remember Littlefinger missing a single meeting since joining the council. A glance told him the rest of the councillors were as clueless as he was. At least his preparations for the tourney…- 671.1 K • Completed
22nd Day of the 11th Moon, 303 AC Daenerys Targaryen, Outside Golden Tooth War was a dull affair. Not only was it dull, but it was slow, dragging through the mud like an old swine. The decision to take the war to the Westerlands had been made moons ago. Moons that it took the army to march through rain-soaked roads, ferry supplies, and carefully scout ahead. Pesky problems like arranging patrols, foraging, counting grain, and even organising the marching columns never seemed to end. A grand total…- 401.2 K • Ongoing

40.The Third Slayer
18th Day of the 11th Moon, 303 AC Jaime Lannister, The Golden Tooth The command room was as quiet as a funeral. Even the crackling hearth had gone silent at some point, and with it, warmth slowly gave way to chill. Yet Jaime was still here, huddled over the great oaken table, and his gaze was fixed on the map as if it would show him a way to victory. It didn't. He had heard a dozen suggestions, scores of ideas, each less feasible than the last. The defeat at Chesford had broken them. There, knights…- 401.2 K • Ongoing

40.The Bog Devil
5th Day of the 9th Moon, 298ACThe Kingslayer Being a member of the kingsguard could be quite dull at times, following around the king while he went about his day or standing guard in front of doors, where the most exciting thing was the wall in front of you or the sounds of Robert fucking another whore. The nights on guard duty were the worst, where even staying awake was a problem. Of course, apart from the occasional moments when Cersei pulled him into her chambers for a quick tumble. But such…- 671.1 K • Completed

40.Riddles Unravelled
31st October, 1992Juno She hissed the moment her fingers touched the yew wand and quickly dropped it. The pain lingered, and an angry dark splotch sat where the skin had contacted the wood. Even trying to grip it through the three-folded fabric of her sleeve sent jolts of pain, but she ignored the unpleasant feeling and started pouring her magic for a Wand-lighting Charm. The moment her magic reached the wand, Juno screamed. The wand cluttered on the floor, but her body was numb as jolts of agony…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

4.Vexations of a Fisherman
Year 129 After Aegon's ConquestJon Snow "A storm is brewing," Aethan muttered the next morning. Nettles glanced at the cloudless sky outside and scoffed. "How would you know, old man?" "I can feel the ache in my knees." His steward smiled ruefully. "The days are getting shorter, and fall shall soon arrive, and with it come the autumn storms from the Stepstones." As the old fisherman predicted, the weather turned stormy the next week. The warm drizzle was easy to ignore, but the winds coming…- 185.8 K • Completed

4.Search
How in Merlin's saggy pants could he have forgotten about Hedwig?! Harry rushed towards Eeylops Owl Emporium, or at least tried to, with his heavy trunk slowing him down, despite it being charmed to be lighter. It worked well enough; otherwise, he would not have been able to lift it with the number of books he had purchased. A few older witches looked at him as if he was crazy as he lugged his trunk with his scrawny frame while trying to rush with it. By the time he reached his destination, he was…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

4.Echoes of Hunger
258 AC, The Red Keep The Young Princess There had been no chance to speak with her grandfather, to gauge his reaction and try to confide in him. While Aegon the Unlikely was a busy king, he wasn’t too hard to meet. But Rhaella couldn’t meet him, no matter how much she wished to, despite being a princess of the blood and his only granddaughter. The chambers of the Maidenvault were flush with velvet tapering and gilded furniture, an empty luxury meant to entertain Baelor’s sisters for…- 202.5 K • Ongoing

4.An Unlikely Path
4th Day of the 3d Moon, 303 ACThe Young Dragon Aegon had decided to lead the assault on Storm's End himself, despite Griff's protests. He had remained in the camps during the storming of Gryffin's Roost, and the young king knew he had to prove himself in battle sooner or later. Their plan was relatively simple, but it could have gone very wrong very fast. The fact remained that they needed Storm's End to have a solid grasp over the Stormlands. And if they failed to take it, their whole campaign would…- 401.2 K • Ongoing

4. The Hunter and the Prey
17th Day of the 3rd Moon Lord Eddard Stark Eddard tiredly rubbed his brow as the raindrops relentlessly pattered his shutter. It would snow during the night, but the days were too warm and turned the snow into rain. He collapsed on the Lord's chair behind the desk and sighed. The waiting had become unbearable, and all he could do was worry while his mind conjured worse and worse scenarios. It didn't help that the king's arrival loomed in the distance. Ned hated dealing with the Southron court and had…- 671.1 K • Completed
