Ninth Moon, 97 AD (5 BC) The Lion Prince They saw it long before they reached it. Five black towers stretching high into the sky in the distant horizon beside the waters of a lake so large it looked like the sea. It was another two days’ ride after that before they finally arrived though. Had he been any other man, his jaw might have dropped in shock at the sheer size of Harrenhal’s walls and towers. They rose as sheer as cliffs and as high as hills and even the gatehouse was larger than some entire…- 262.2 K • Ongoing
- Chapter Text Third Moon, 101 AD (1 BC) Aegon As they approached Seagard, he held Aerion tighter in his arms with a mischievous smile on his face before he urged Balerion into a few sharp turns and sweeping rolls. His son’s excited cheers and shouts lightened Aegon’s heart before they finally came in to land at the castle. “When will Valaena and I be able to fly on our own Father?” Aerion asked him as they dismounted from Balerion and climbed the rope ladder down to the ground from his…

- Eleventh Moon, 101 AD (1 BC) Visenya “At ease,” Aegon said with a smile. The councilors who had risen to greet them all relaxed, though by decorum none took their seats until Visenya and her siblings did. Her son Aerion and her niece Valaena meanwhile went to the nearby table and began pouring cups of wine from the pitchers to serve to them and each of the ministers. The two of them had started serving as the council’s cupbearers this past year so that they might observe and learn how to govern…

- First Moon, 102 AD (1 AC) The Ranger Commandant Crowley and his fellow Rangers watched from a distance as the King and Queen blasted through the Golden Tooth with their dragons. The sight of Balerion and Meraxes in all their awesome power never failed to amaze him. Their preparations for this war had not gone unnoticed and the Golden Tooth had been fortified and reinforced with almost ten thousand men, many of them veterans from the campaign in the Iron Islands. They were under the command of Lord Roger…

- First Moon, 102 AD (1 AC) Aegon When the raven had arrived at Ashemark from Harlaw Hall, Rhaenys and he had feared the worst. It had already taken the raven almost three days to cross the distance and Visenya had not answered any of their calls on the glass candles. What had taken the raven three days to cross their dragons had traveled in half a day. Aegon felt his fear lessen a little as they finally arrived at Harlaw Hall and saw Vhagar still there and looking quite pleased to see them. A far cry…

- Fourth Moon, 102 AD (1 AC) Rhaenys Together as one, with their bond open to the fullest and their minds linked, Meraxes and her dived towards Castle Drumm, weaving in and out between volleys of arrows and scorpion bolts that bounced off of Meraxes’ scales harmlessly. The Westerlanders holding the castle were desperate, knowing that there was no escape for them. Without even a word, her dragon’s silver-gold flames emerged from her maw, spraying the battlements with dragonflame, blasting through the…

- Sixth Moon, 102 AD (1 AC) The Red Lion Robert did not think he would ever forget how Casterly Rock had fallen. In seven days, Aegon Targaryen had done the impossible. He had brought the mighty and impregnable fortress to its knees with a legendary feat of dominance and deceit the likes of which the world had not seen since the Age of Heroes. Some of his loyalists were already likening his achievement to that of Lann the Clever and his trickery, justifying his rule over the Westerlands by declaring that…

- Fifth Moon, 103 AD (2 AC) The Gardener Mern could not help but smile at the sight before him. With a few words and a kiss, his eldest grandson and namesake had just secured the keys to Storm’s End for the Reach forevermore. He almost envied him. Argella Durrandon was quite the beauty, and the kingdom she was heir to even more so. Mern ruled the Reach as the Ninth of His Name, but when his grandson ascended his throne, he would rule both the Reach and the Stormlands and perhaps even more as Mern the…

- Seventh Moon, 107 AD (6 AC) The Builder “Blane! Take a seat!” Darren said as he walked into the tavern. He smiled at the sight of some of his colleagues playing cards and drinking at the table in the corner. He took his seat and got dealt into the game once he finished ordering his meal and drink from the waitress, a rather cute and mousy young woman. Blane entertained the thought of asking her name before his colleagues cut him off with inquires after his day. “How was work today?” Darren…

- Seventh Moon, 107 AD (6 AC) Rhaenys They almost made it too easy, Rhaenys could not help but think. Almost the entirety of the Vale’s army had massed at the Bloody Gate, cramming its battlements and barracks to the brim and filling the valley behind it with their tents. They stood in a perfect formation, ready to throw back their own army marching up the road, as they had thrown back and bloodied every invader in history, earning the gate its name. But they were not like all the other invaders of…
