Third Moon, 123 AD (22 AC) Rhaenys “It all leads here in the end,” Rhaenys could not help but think as Hellholt came into view. In another world, another time, she had died here. She could imagine it in her mind’s eye. The scorpions bristling on Hellholt’s walls would unleash their deadly loads, a stray lucky bolt would pierce her beloved Meraxes’ eye, and they’d both plummet to their doom. If she was lucky, she would die on impact, and if not… Rhaenys did not normally like to dwell on such…- 269.0 K • Ongoing

- The Shadowcat Prince Fourth Moon, 128 IC/254 AD (153 AC) What would Loren think? Tyland couldn’t help but wonder sometimes.

New major settlements had been…

- Excerpt from Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace Novelization by Terry Brooks They were close to the throne room now; it lay only another story up and several corridors back. Padmé felt a fierce exultation. She would have the Neimoidian viceroy as her prisoner yet! But the thought was no sooner completed than a pair of destroyer droids wheeled around one end of the hallway, swiftly transforming into battle mode. Mere seconds later, a second pair appeared at the other end, weapons held at the…- 13.5 K • Ongoing
- First Moon, 123 AD (22 AC) Aegon Their passage through the Stepstones had been completely unchallenged. Though the island chain was entirely occupied and controlled by the fleets of Braavos, Pentos, and Tyrosh, none of the three Free Cities had dared to even demand tolls, too fearful of the power of his family’s dragons and the idea it would be turned upon them. Only recently had Essos been reminded of that power. A scant few months ago, Aegon and his family had orchestrated the destruction of the…

- Third Moon, 118 AD (17 AC) Aegon “Magnificent, aren’t they Your Grace?” the handler asked excitedly. The man in question was one of the many demands he had made of Volantis as the annual tribute for staying out of the wars in Essos. He had asked that they send him a few of their most capable elephant handlers and trainers in advance before he had conquered the North, anticipating that they would soon be very necessary. “They are indeed,” Aegon could not help but admit, feeling even a little…

- Tenth Moon, 122 AD (21 AC) The King of Hardhome The past six years had been some of the hardest in Loren’s life. He had thought adjusting to the harsh cold life on the Wall after decades in the royal golden splendor of Casterly Rock had been difficult but Hardhome had been a whole new level of difficulty.

- 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, 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…
