Fifth Moon, 120 AC Jacaerys Over a hundred years ago, his ancestor, Aegon the Conqueror had destroyed a Volantene fleet at Lys. Jace found it almost fitting that he would be following in his footsteps. He looked ahead to his prey. The Volantene fleet had formed up in formation. Each ship bristled with scorpions, pointed desperately at the sky. They fired a mass volley of bolts that came flying at Jace and his dragon from all directions. Without even needing his order, Tessarion released a cobalt wreath of…- 606.6 K • Completed
- Fourth Moon, 120 AC The White Worm "My apologies for the insult milord. Please, accept our compensation. Would a night with one of our girls free of charge be acceptable?" Mysaria said with a pronounced bow, trying to hide her anger and frustration with the man who had tried to have his way with one of her Conches without paying the price. One of those disgusting pigs who believed only in the Iron Price and not the Gold. The ironman, a reaver and warrior in the service of Lord Greyjoy scoffed and sneered.…

- Third Moon, 122 AC The Summer Islander Once he had been Jhallador Zhas, a proud warrior and chief retainer in the service of Prince Xhallabar Xho, the Prince of Lizard Head off the coast of Jhala. But no more. He was nothing now. Just a sad exile drinking away his sorrows in a Lyseni tavern. He tightened the grip on his cup and took another swill of his wine as his bitterness continued to fester. Exile. The Priests of Love had always insisted that their way of warfare was superior to that of other peoples…

- Sixth Moon, 121 AC Jacaerys Baela was sweating heavily as she concentrated. On the table between them both, a tall and black obsidian candle stood, twisted with dark sharp edges and an unpleasantly bright light that glowed from the top of the candle's flame, doing strange things to the colors in the room. White was as bright as fresh fallen snow, yellow shone like gold, reds had turned to flames, and shadows were so black they were like holes in the world, devouring all. "Focus," he called out. "I'm…

- Baela Tenth Moon, 114 AC The scarf wrapped tightly around her neck and mouth was suffocating, but not the real reason Baela felt like she was dying. The curtains in the room were thick and heavy, drawn to prevent sickness from spreading. Soaps, boiled wine, and other sanitary supplies were placed in neat cabinets all over the building, and she had been forced to wash her hands up to her elbows before she entered and she'd have to do it again before she left. The infirmary was a place for the dying and…

- First Moon, 120 AC Rhaenys A new year had dawned on House Targaryen, and with it came a new decade. And in this new decade, Rhaenys was determined to seize back the initiative. No longer would her house be left to simply react to everything the Velaryons had done. No, for the first time in years, decades even, House Targaryen would take the initiative, they would act first, and the Velaryons would be the ones left scrambling to respond to their glorious accomplishments. Her father sat regally upon the Iron…

- Sixth Moon, 115 AC Daeron "Have you finished packing?" Daeron asked his sister, trying desperately to have a conversation with her, even if it was just smalltalk. "I have," she answered without even turning to look at him. It had been a few weeks since their dramatic and heart-wrenching falling out with Aegon. The sixth moon of 115 AC had begun and their parents had informed both of them that the family was to visit Tyrosh and greet Jace and Luke upon their return, a change of plans from the previous plan…

- Fifth Moon, 115 AC Laena Velaryon "I was thinking Laena. Mother and Father said that they've summoned Jace and Luke back home to High Tide. We should go and greet them when they return," Daeron said excitedly as he walked into her room. "Wasn't that a given little brother?" Laena retorted with a raised eyebrow. "Especially since Jace was sick, I think we're all a little anxious to see for ourselves that he is well. Still it is a bit premature for us to discuss this don't you think? It will be at least two…

- Tenth Moon, 114 AC Jacaerys "They're opening another vault?" Baela asked. "It seems so. I'm thinking of taking a trip down there to watch as the survey team goes in this time," Jace replied. "This time? You mean every time. You always do that," Baela teased. "Can you blame me? It's the most exciting thing that happens these days," Jace retorted. Why would he not want to follow along to see how the exploration and excavation efforts were going? Overseeing the daily tasks and chores of their camp like…

- Fifth Moon, 114 AC Gael Daemon was off somewhere in the city, no doubt indulging in yet another day of revelry and celebration with his men now that he had finally been reinstated to his post as Commander of the Watch. She was happy for him. Her husband's reinstatement was a result of her efforts. She had been working hard to convince Aemon for years and it had finally borne fruit after she had pointed out how well behaved Daemon had been with regards to the Velaryons in the past few years. He hadn't even…
