Eleventh Moon, 86 AC Viserra Targaryen The court had been in quite the fuss for the past month ever since it had become publicly known that the new Master of Ships was none other than Lord Corlys Velaryon, the Sea Snake himself. The announcement by her father had sent the court into a flurry of gossip, rumor-mongering, and endless bounds of curiosity. After all, the name of Corlys Velaryon was probably world famous by now, even to some of the smallfolk. Who hadn't heard of the Westerosi lordling who had…- 606.6 K • Completed
- Third Moon, 116 AD (15 AC) Aegor “He’s just so adorable, isn’t he?” Rhaena said as she fawned over their son in the nursery. Aegor couldn’t help but agree as he ran his hands through the faint wisps of silver-gold hair on his son’s head and drank in the sight of those innocent purple eyes. His eyes, or as they should have been if one had not been torn out and replaced with cold, hard emerald long ago. It had taken him countless years to accept that maiming, that disability, yet as he beheld…

- Eleventh Moon, 86 AC Aurane The day after their dinner with the royal family, Aurane and Corlys got up to take control of the Royal Fleet. Per their directions, the officers of the royal fleet had gathered in one of the buildings in the port, and much to Corlys's consternation, it was not an official building owned by the royal fleet and used to hold their records and meeting rooms. No, it was just a simple warehouse keeping the royal fleet's supplies that the ship captains also used to hold their…

- Sixth Moon, 116 AD (15 AC) The King of Hardhome He sighed in honest, earnest relief, when they finally set sight on Hardhome. It had been a terrifying few months, filled with more fear than he’d felt in fourteen years, since the last time he’d been in the presence of a dragonlord. Just as he knew they always would, the Targaryens had finally come for the North, for Brandon Snow, and the sheer scale of the brutality and savagery unleashed by both sides was unreal. Tyrannical heathen dragonlords and…

- Fifth Moon, 87 AC Alysanne "Construction of the fort on Bloodstone was completed three months ago. In the time since, our fleet has cleared through several pirate dens on the Stepstones but the moment we leave an island, the pirates always come slinking right back in," Ser Aurane, the youngest of the Velaryon brothers reported. "What of the locals?" her husband asked. She had always loved how he looked when he was trying to be serious and focused. "There aren't that many of them. Some villages of…

- Fifth Moon, 87 AC Jaehaerys Targaryen "So it is confirmed then?" he asked. "Not quite, but am I one of the leading candidates yes. Septa Laila nominated me as her replacement when she was still with us and the rest of the Most Devout will be convening soon to decide it. The raven should be coming any day now," his daughter answered. "That is good news indeed. And the Citadel Vaegon? What news?" "The Conclave is panicking to be honest. Driftmark's university, alone, was of little concern to them but now…

- Fifth Moon, 87 AC Viserra At times Viserra wondered why it was she was allowed to enter the Dragonpit. Her parents had never expressly forbidden her a dragon, yet neither had they granted their permission either, so why was she allowed into the pit? The temptation was there, all she had to do was reach out her hands and grab it. Unbidden, forgotten childhood memories came to mind recalling how Saera and she had asked for a dragon like their eldest siblings. They had never actually been told 'no'. They had…

- Fifth Moon, 87 AC Aurane Aurane was waiting on one of the battlements of Maegor's Holdfast. His brother was currently speaking with the king, having been invited for a private audience. The invite had been worded politely, but it had been clear that refusing was not an option. When Jaehaerys Targaryen commanded you to attend to him, you obeyed. The reason for the invite had not been said, but it had been obvious to Aurane and his brother. Half the court was expecting a betrothal announcement any day for…

- Eighth Moon, 87 AC Viserra The morning after their arrival at High Tide, Viserra met Corlys at the gatehouse of High Tide. He was wearing a silver-blue doublet and sea-green cloak. A squadron of his household guard were protecting him. Their plate was ocean-blue, trimmed in silver and they wore mail hauberks and bright sea-green shirts beneath it. The same sea green proudly adorned their shoulders as long flowing cloaks. House Velaryon's elite Tide Guard wore its colors with pride. Sea green was not the…

- Second Moon, 88 AC Alyssa Targaryen Alyssa Targaryen was the eldest daughter. Had been since the moment she was born. Eldest, but not firstborn. In another life, a sister she had never met might have held that lofty position and not her, and Alyssa would have been glad for it. Her shadow lied over her even now. The spectre of a child long dead and in her heart Alyssa still felt lacking in comparison. Daenerys had been the eldest daughter her family deserved, Daenerys would not have abandoned her younger…
