In this fourth volume of the Annals of Kings, we will examine the lives of the Kings of Arnor who oversaw the greatest wars in our history and their aftermath. This is a time spanning seven centuries, an era marked both by a new rising in Arnorian power and by great losses and tragedies that the nation had no choice but to overcome to survive. Having recovered from the Dark Years, the centuries of weakness that had followed the Kin-Strife, the renewed Arnor had turned its gaze upon a rival which had…- 309.2 K • Completed

- 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…

- 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…

Tenth Moon, 169 AC Viserys Targaryen Viserys had served as Hand of the King ever since the day he had come of age and his elder brother could justify sticking that pin on his chest. From that moment onwards, for the next thirty years, he had ruled ably in the background as Aegon had brooded, Daeron had warred, and Baelor had prayed. Never once had he acted beyond his place despite the clamors of some to do so. When his brother had died before his time and his son had become King at an unripe young age,…- 34.0 K • Ongoing
Tenth Month, 969 ARR (31 BBY) Anakin “Again,” his new Master snarled as Anakin hit the ground for the third time that evening. Such had been his routine for the past few months. So far, Sidious had taught him precious little of any Force techniques save for some basics in how to shield, meditate, and draw strength from the dark side, strength from pain and hardship. According to him, Anakin did not have the hardened grit necessary for proper Sith training yet, and that is what they were working to…- 29.5 K • Ongoing
- Twelfth Moon, 90 AC Alyssa How had it come to this, Alyssa wondered? Two years ago, all had seemed right in the world. Viserra had just had her newborn sons, the alliance and bond between Houses Targaryen and Velaryon had seemed stronger than ever, and Alyssa had felt like she was finally clawing her way out of the melancholy that had haunted her for years, returning to who she had once been, little by little. Now though? Now that alliance was in pieces, the broken shards strewn on the floor, edges sharp…

- Immediately upon leaving King's Landing, Daemon and his company were faced with a choice. Where should they go now? Aegor Bittersteel offered the hospitality of his kin in Stone Hedge in the Riverlands but Quentyn Fireball suggested that they go instead to the Reach as they had far more friends there that would gladly house them and the kingdom was much more enraged by Daeron II's actions than the Riverlands. Quentyn knew his fellow Reachmen well and knew they'd be as infuriated as he about the ludicrous…

- Sixth Moon, 169 AC Rhaena Targaryen Rhaena would not admit it aloud but she was growing worried. Daena and Elaena had been acting extremely strange lately, always making excuses to hole up in their rooms with their cousin Daeron whenever he visited. They were smart enough to make excuses that their ladies in waiting all believed like Daeron simply being like a little brother to them who had dutifully come to keep them company in their confinement with games and reading but Rhaena was their sister, even…

- Fifth Moon, 169 AC Elaena Targaryen As she sat there on Daena’s bed, Elaena couldn’t stop her hands from shaking as she twiddled her fingers anxiously. She couldn’t believe she was really doing this, that she’d let Daena talk her into it. It was madness, complete and utter madness and yet it was also her only hope. She had always liked Daeron. Though he had been three years her younger, they had been close as children, playing and reading together and keeping each other company as they both…
