The drowned crown
Edmure POV
It wasn’t my first time in the siege, so I knew what would happen by now. The other islands have reached a standstill, as only the lord castles stood before our victory. I have ordered most men to come to me in taking Pyke and only leave a bare minimum t...

Family
Theon POV
Even though I only spent one night in this room, it annoyed me. I could break the door, kill the guard, and leave, but I didn’t because I believed in my sister. While I stayed here, I started planning my future actions. Too bad I didn’t have a map, but from what I...

Chapter 8
Kaen woke up with his cat Ash sitting on his head. He groaned in annoyance and shooed Ash away. In a way, Kaen was thankful that Ash woke him up as he was dreaming of another nightmare. Time was running out, one more year until the faithful day was left. The nightmares reminded hi...

Return of the Redfish
Edmure POV
The wind ruffled my hair as I ate an orange. Hundreds of ships surrounded my own. Well, it was lord Paxter’s ship, but mostly my men were on board. The weather was excellent, the sun warmed me, and the wind was refreshing, yet I was tense. The Iron I...

Welcome home
Theon POV
Staying in the room, locked up, wasn’t my style in the end. Before the night fell, I took out my journal and ripped a page out. Taking a quill and ink from my bag, I started to write. Father thought he could cage me, but he was wrong if he thought I couldn’t...

The Osen was a gift from the gods. Kaen almost melted into the hot water. It was just that relaxing and pleasurable. It was the most optimal place to rest. He wouldn’t have survived the past year without Osen since he decided to train with weights. Every day his muscles were str...

Set sails
Edmure POV
Twenty warships were all that was left of the Lannister fleet. Even after seizing three dozen merchant ships, it was not nearly enough to do anything. I could do nothing but wait for the Redwyne fleet to arrive at Lannisport. Seagard and the North have about a hun...

Four arrows thunked into a pine tree. It was still too slow, Kaen thought. It has been three years since the Kyubi attack. Kaen was nine years old, and many expected him to graduate from the academy this year. But Kaen was doubtful if he was ready, his primary weapon was a bow, an...

After a year since Kaen obtained his Sharingan, he learned all D-rank seals he could find. He liked the chakra-draining seal the most but only had a chance to use it against Shisui. It wasn’t hard to memorize the seals with his Sharingan, but learning calligraphy was challenging...

It was a hectic life in the past few weeks, especially for an Uchiha. It was already evident through the reactions of some clan elders that the leadership of Konoha started to mistrust the Uchiha clan. While Kaen mostly didn’t care about his clan or the village higher-ups, he st...

I read the report from lord Edmure Tully, informing me that Casterly Rock has fallen. Tommen and Myrcella waters were taken as hostages, and most Lannister males went to the Wall. I should be happy about this news, but the head at the table of grandmaester ...

Seagard was a northern town and ancestral seat of House Mallister. As towns went, Seagard was pretty big. It was nothing compared to King’s Landing, but it didn’t smell like shit and looked pleasing to an eye. Overall, I liked Seagard, especially the refreshin...

Two and a half years. With the family, the servants, and the guards, we have resources for two and a half years to survive. Casterly Rock can hold on for only that long. After that, I didn’t know what would happen.

The reunion of the lions
Tyrion POV
What in the seven hells is going on? I pushed through men on the walls to my uncle Stafford. After hearing that Stannis started to retread, I ran straight from the Red Keep to the city's walls. My legs were burning in pain before I found my uncle.

Jon POV
I looked at the new Grand Maester, Marwyn, the mage people called him. He didn’t look like a Maester or a mage. He looked more like some sailor that I met in Seagard. His nose was probably broken a dozen times to look crooked, and his teeth were red, probably fro...
