Daemon's reign officially began at the turn of the century, the year 200 AC, a symbolic new beginning, for the restoration and renewal his reign would usher in. Once the dust from the War of Restoration had settled and all the punishments and rewards had finalized, work could finally begin on healing and rebuilding the realm. One of the most crucial institutions that Daemon needed to first see to was his Small Council. He first chose his brother, Lord Aegor Bittersteel, as his Hand of the King, followed…- 36.8 K • Completed
- The storm was instantaneous as soon as the ravens sent forth from Stone Hedge began reaching their destinations all across the land. A furious uproar thrummed across every corner of Westeros at the outrageous, unprovoked, and dishonorable attack upon the party of a Prince and Princess of the Realm and the threat to the lives of their young children. It broke all norms of decency, chivalry, and law, and many who might once have risen for the Spears now began declaring neutrality or outright for the Swords…

- With the establishment of the Black Swords and the Knights of the Round Table at the dawn of 190 AC, Daemon now had his knights and they were quick to act. Donations flooded in from all of the affluent members to equip and feed their burgeoning chivalric army and the Black Swords organized themselves into an efficient and orderly chain of command underneath the Knights of the Round Table, one based not just on birthright and status but on merit, fame, competence as a knight, chivalric character, and the…

- Immediately upon leaving King's Landing, Daemon and his company were faced with a choice. Where should they go now? Aegor Bittersteel offered the hospitality of his kin in Stone Hedge in the Riverlands but Quentyn Fireball suggested that they go instead to the Reach as they had far more friends there that would gladly house them and the kingdom was much more enraged by Daeron II's actions than the Riverlands. Quentyn knew his fellow Reachmen well and knew they'd be as infuriated as he about the ludicrous…

- Author's Note: Hello there! This particular story explores the concept of Daemon Blackfyre taking his King Arthur Pendragon parallels all the way to their peak logical conclusion, hence the reason for the title, which is one of the epithets of King Arthur (or is in Fate/stay/night at least lol). Technically an SI/transmigrator facilitates this, but you can imagine it as an AU if you like because unlike most SI/transmigrators, this story is written purely as a historical text, like Fire and Blood or World…

Anakin Second Month, 970 ARR (30 BBY) Once he had proven himself by surviving the brutal first few months of physical and mental conditioning, especially Mygeeto, a planet he now hated almost as much as Tatooine, Anakin’s training had accelerated sharply. Everything he had thought he would learn had finally begun. Sidious had begun teaching him how to call upon the dark side actively, to bend the Force to his will. The obstacle courses that had once been the bane of his existence were now a breeze and…- 29.5 K • Ongoing
- Twelfth Month, 969 ARR (31 BBY) Maul Much had happened in the fourteen standard months since Maul had forsworn his former master. He had secured transport off Naboo in the chaos of the Bombardment’s aftermath, absconding with a good freighter that he had then flown to one of the few secret hideouts at his disposal that his former master had no knowledge of. There he had rested for a few weeks, gathering what resources he could while letting his grievous injuries and wounds heal. Then when he was…

- Tenth Month, 969 ARR (31 BBY) Anakin “Again,” his new Master snarled as Anakin hit the ground for the third time that evening. Such had been his routine for the past few months. So far, Sidious had taught him precious little of any Force techniques save for some basics in how to shield, meditate, and draw strength from the dark side, strength from pain and hardship. According to him, Anakin did not have the hardened grit necessary for proper Sith training yet, and that is what they were working to…

- Tenth Month, 968 ARR (32 BBY) Darth Maul With a savage smirk, Darth Maul withdrew his lightsaber from where he had gutted the proud Jedi Master. Qui-Gon Jinn had been a worthy opponent. Tall, powerfully built, and skilled with his favored lightsaber form, Ataru. But his age had begun to show, his chosen lightsaber style had tired him and in the cramped room about the reactor shaft, the older Jedi Master had not had the room to move as much as his preferred form demanded. Nonetheless Maul took pride in…

- - Excerpt from Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace Novelization by Terry Brooks They were close to the throne room now; it lay only another story up and several corridors back. Padmé felt a fierce exultation. She would have the Neimoidian viceroy as her prisoner yet! But the thought was no sooner completed than a pair of destroyer droids wheeled around one end of the hallway, swiftly transforming into battle mode. Mere seconds later, a second pair appeared at the other end, weapons held at the…
