4278 E.L Some days, Jaenara Belaerys wondered why exactly she had chosen to adventure into Sothoryos. It was hot, humid, and disgusting and all she had ever found was jungle, mountains, and desert. Rinse and repeat. Of course she had had an ulterior motive for choosing to leave Valyria but when that was excluded, she found it hard to understand why she'd chosen, willingly to undergo the past year of grueling exploration. Perhaps she was simply unwilling to admit that she had left Valyria for her own…- 309.2 K • Completed
- Everything changed when the Doom destroyed Valyria. With no rival left, nothing remained to stand in Arnor's way as it expanded its power and influence across the world.

Yet this Second Golden Age would ultimately find itself interrupted by the return of the Long Night, the coming…

- Seventh Moon, 94 AC Viserra It had been over two years since the Morghon Revolt had been crushed. Those two years had seen a massive turn in House Velaryon's fortunes as Tyrosh was brought under their full control. Now, House Velaryon ruled in Tyrosh absolutely, unquestioned, unchallenged. The militant Stars, which had been loyal but worryingly fanatic and independent, had been greatly bloodied and their numbers had been thinned during the revolt. The survivors had been recruited and assimilated into the…

- Eighth Moon, 127 AC Alyssa With a hacking cough, she heaved more of her life away, throwing her whole body to the side of the bed in her agony. The years of stress and worry had taken their toll on her body, and ever since her beloved Baelon's death the previous year, the melancholy that had once plagued her had returned with a vengeance. She was sixty-seven years old. Both of her parents had lived into their 70s but Alyssa doubted she'd be able to match their accomplishment. She didn't want to match…

- Sixth Moon, 108 AD (7 AC) The Courtier Court was no longer a wondrous place to Lady Marianne Vance. The once peaceful and idyllic Summerhall had become dour and grey, a specter of darkness and war looming overhead. The attack on the Targaryen family had shocked the whole of the Riverlands, none more than the people of Summerhall itself. Enemy assassins had walked in their midst, eaten their food, drunk their wine, and slept in their inns. They had plotted and schemed against their royal house, and if…

- The Second Son of the High Tower Tenth Moon, 90 AC As a boy, Otto had once climbed to the top of the High Tower with his older brother Hobert. There the great beacon of the tower was set and they had watched enthralled as the wardens had fed more wood to feed the fire. Soon enough, Otto's attention had turned to the majestic view around him. The Hightower was the tallest structure left in the Known World after the fall of Old Valyria's topless towers, taller even than the seven hundred-foot Wall at the…

- Fifty years. Fifty years since he had become king, and finally he would begin the conquest he had dreamed of for so long. In all honesty, Celepharn was surprised that he had waited so long, but he had heeded his son Celebrindor's counsel. Arnor had not prospered by being hasty, and it was no insignificant foe that stood against them. Very cunningly, the old kings of the Arbor and Oldtown had arranged for the union of their kingdoms and houses and now their grandson was the king of both realms. Any other…

- The Sea of Myrth was calm and peaceful as they approached Myr. As they did so, Ciryaher whispered a small prayer that they would be able to take the city once more for Arnor, and maybe with any luck keep it this time around. However, before they could that, they had to first reach the city and finish crossing the Sea of Myrth, which Ciryaher knew was by far the most dangerous part of their plan. The first three days after departing Pentos had not been an issue, as they sailed through the Narrow Sea.…

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…- 13.5 K • Ongoing
- Sixth Moon, 109 AC Jacaerys He'd known it was coming, but somehow his uncle announcing it in open court just made it all so much more real. The reactions were mixed. Some like their trusted allies, Starks, Tarths, Graftons, Royces, and Celtigars, were either pleased or disappointed that they didn't get something more substantive. Jace acknowledged his family's friends with nods and mouthed words of thanks. Caeryn and Caspian Celtigar along with many others that he was acquainted with from his family's…
