6.Dancing with Death
258 AC, the Red Keep The Young Princess Rhaella woke up, back soaked in a cold sweat again. This time, she had dreamed of torn throats and pools of blood. And the screams still echoed in her mind. Her own screams, though her voice had been older and far more desperate. The manner of Septa Melona’s death had been covered up, but Septon Manton’s murder was seen by too many to be buried. “By noon, half the city will know a septon was killed in the Red Keep in broad daylight,” her…- 202.5 K • Ongoing

59.Of Crooked Cruelty
26th Day of the 2nd MoonGarlan Tyrell, up the Rose Road The Battle of Rushing Falls had been bloody, and Garlan could remember it too well. He remembered every foe he had slain, but one young face haunted him—brown, doe-like eyes full of fear. It wasn't anyone special of great lineage or a storied house… just some boy too young to even see a battle, let alone fight it. Ultimately, Mathis Rowan had a thousand more men and a third more knights and used his reserves to surround the left flank and…- 671.1 K • Completed

59.Fire to Ashes
4th of May 1994, Friday Dumbledore Igor Karkaroff paced across the room, his footsteps as feverish as they were nervous. Just like almost everything else in Durmstrang, the headmaster’s office was dark and gloomy, even without counting the vast collection of cursed books lining the shelves. The windows were stilted, lacking in sunlight; a dark grey carpet sagged across the floor, and the furniture was either cast or coloured in various degrees of dark, joyless hues. “He’s about to…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

58.Swirling Inferno
Corruption or Incompetence? The Ministry’s play for House Black and Lestrange’s seats! By our correspondent Kateris Tree While certain elements claim the attack on Hogsmeade was a premeditated murder and a bold escape, I have unearthed new evidence that implies otherwise. Further exploration of that day—including memories provided to me by a handful of witnesses on the scene—suggests that Lady Juno Bellatrix Black has been kidnapped by unknown assailants. “Miss Black has never broken a…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

58.Echoes of Blood
15th Day of the 2nd Month, 299 ACThe Besieged Bog Devil Howland was beside himself with worry. His worst fears had come true, and the Dothraki scouts belonged to a Khalasar. His misfortune was somewhat limited, as the foe they had provoked wasn't one of those infamous horselords commanding tens of thousands of screamers. Still, the man they faced was more than the Northmen could handle. Ten days ago, Khal Polo, with over six thousand horsemen, had arrived before the gates of their fort, demanding…- 671.1 K • Completed

57.Dancing with Ghosts
1st of May 1994, Sunday (Next Day) Juno She felt weak, as if all the strength had drained away from her limbs. ‘Textbook case of Magical Exhaustion,’ her mind supplied helpfully. Her throat felt dry, like she had swallowed a mouthful of ash. It tasted like it, too. Birds were chirping in the distance, but her ears found the noise irksome. Then, the memories returned with full force, and she cursed herself inwardly. She should have used her Portkey instead of fighting. The next…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

57.Awakening
24th Day of the 1st Moon, 299 ACSepton Glendon, Cobble Cove (The Reach) He hailed from a small, peaceful village, Grey Creek, in the Northmarch. A third son, completely unassuming, with an ordinary face, brown hair and eyes; there had never been anything special about him. Hailing from a long line of farmers and coopers, his blood could not be any more ordinary. Yet Glendon had been a pious boy, and his parents sent him to the Septry for learning. At twenty, he became a septon; then, at fifty, he joined…- 671.1 K • Completed

April 30th 1994 Saturday (127 days later) Juno Black The last few months had been fruitful. They had managed to convince Amelia Bones to teach them Apparition and take the official exam, though it would take until summer for their license to come. The first basilisk scale battle robes were finally finished last month, though it was estimated that Juno and Harry would outgrow them in less than a year. It was of no matter; she would just commission a new set by then. “Mum wants a double…- 469.5 K • Ongoing

11th Day of the 1st Moon, 299 ACThe Bronze Yohn, The Vale The birth of his grandson filled the Lord of Runestone with joy. The gods smiled upon House Royce, for there were no complications in Sharra's birth, and the newest member of House Royce was robust and healthy. The babe had a mighty pair of lungs on him, and his bellows could be heard across three rooms. In the end, the boy was named Robert Royce for his booming cry and in honour of the Demon of the Trident. Robert Baratheon's death made the…- 671.1 K • Completed

55.The Black Flame
17th Day of the 13th Moon, 298 ACCortnay Penrose, the Kingswood Their camp was a mess, but they had won the battle. At the earliest estimate, fifteen hundred were dead, but the enemy had lost nearly twice as much, and many more had been captured. A good chunk of the second were Essosi sellswords, which would hang by noon. "Don't move, Ser," Maester Lymon shuffled around Cortnay's left, wrapping around Penrose's broken forearm. The knight could only grit his teeth at the slivers of pain jolting down…- 671.1 K • Completed
