      Divide and Conquer, Chapter 24: The Heirs of Valyria Cover
      by Tertius711 Eighth Moon, 109 AD (8 AC) Aegor The glass candle flared to life, an unpleasant bright light that sparked seemingly out of thin air rising from the top of a twisted piece of red obsidian, with dark sharp edges. The colors became all strange. White became as bright as freshly fallen snow, yellow gleamed like the gold of the Rock, reds burned like flames, and shadows were devouring black holes that consumed everything around them. All around the room, Aegor saw several other lights flare to life and twist…

      High Tide, Chapter 38: Reunion Cover
      by Tertius711 First Moon, 100 AC Viserra The ride over to Dragonstone was not long. The island was visible from the highest tower of High Tide, and a dragon covered the distance in little more than five and ten minutes. Her first instinct had been to take Laena and Daeron to ride with her on Dreamfyre, like they'd taken them when they rode the horses. However, her two youngest children had begged and cajoled her to let them ride their dragons and she had begrudgingly relented after ensuring they were strapped and…

      Divide and Conquer, Chapter 7: The Heartlands Cover
      by Tertius711 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…

      High Tide: Chapter 25: Tyrosh Cover
      by Tertius711 First Moon, 91 AC Viserra A silver seahorse leapt from the sea and shapeshifted into a dragon. The silver dragon flew up into the starry sky, where a red dragon awaited it, growling menacingly. In the land beneath, a tower wept tears of blood and a pale fortress was set aflame, burning into the night like a candle in the dark. Fanatical legions worshipped at a shrine before they arose, chanting as they marched, spreading war and chaos wherever they went. The wailing of a newborn babe became the roar of a…

      High Tide, Chapter 53: Chimera Cull Cover
      by Tertius711 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…

      High Tide, Chapter 46: The Ties that Bind Cover
      by Tertius711 Sixth Moon, 109 AC Daeron The winds buffeted against Daeron as his dragon folded her wings and dived toward High Tide. He could hear the screeches of the dragons behind him and turned his head briefly to catch a glimpse. Laena was quick on their tail astride Shrykos and not far behind her were Jace and Luke atop their own dragons, fighting to not be last. A prod he felt seemingly inside his own mind from Terrax through their bond nudged him to pay attention to where they were going. With this high-stakes…

      by Tertius711 Third Moon, 132 AC Rhaenys How did it come to this? That was the question Rhaenys had asked herself every waking moment since that day. How had it all gone so wrong? Why did she have to suffer like this? She had lost everything. Her husband, her children, two of her grandchildren, a cousin, and a nephew. Her dragon was gone and even her very body had been all but destroyed. The broken ribs and other injuries might heal one day, but the burns would always be a permanent scar and her right hand would…

      High Tide Chapter 57: Revolt Cover
      by Tertius711 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.…

      High Tide, Chapter 55: Preparing the Floor Cover
      by Tertius711 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…

      High Tide, Chapter 39: A New Generation Cover
      by Tertius711 -Excerpt from 'The Sea Snake', the biography of Corlys Velaryon, Abridged Edition. The very first meeting of King Jaehaerys the Conciliator and Lord Corlys the Sea Snake happened at the funeral of Lord Corlys' grandfather, Lord Daemon Velaryon. As aforementioned, Lord Daemon was none other than the uncle of Jaehaerys himself, and so the presence of Jaehaerys, his sister-wife Alysanne, and their three eldest children, Princes Aemon and Baelon, and Princess Alyssa, at the funeral, should not have been a…
