Chapter 85 of Shrouded Destiny (SD) is out for Squires!

I’m doing a Re-read, it’s interesting how Kevan is like “Stark must be an ambitious and cunning man under all that honorable non sense”, without realizing it is in fact his honor and integrity that had afforded the trust and loyalty from his subjects, which paved his success. I guess it is true men see what they want to see and always assume others are the same as them.

I just reread chapter 5, and it seems Ned’s references to Ashara during his conversation with Robb contradict Ned’s statements about Ashara to Nymeria. Retcon needed? Because I doubt Ned would have planned to wed Ashara if she had already been impregnated by Brandon.

I love how you protrayed Eddard. Really feels like he is the peak of the Stark mythos, instead of canon Eddard.

Reread the scene in Myr when a guy with a rat like face and bunch of Turtle just come out from under the city and read his name carefully

This chapter was great, I love the Garlan arc. All I ask is for an Edmure revenge chapter

Osric is the nice name I hope Benjen lives long enough to see his son.

What you've done with both Garlan and Melisandre are quite honestly my most favorite things I've ever read happening to those characters! Garlan slowly losing his honor and Mel becoming a priestess of the old gods is a fantastic idea, and I think you've executed them beautifully. The only bad part of this chapter was it ended and I have to wait until next Sunday

A bit slow but good filler nonetheless. Interesting POV from Nymeria towards Eddard "Gaze upon me and despair" Stark. And nice to see Shireen "Stannis" Baratheon is true to her blood. Can't wait to see what Eddard will do to Penthos and Dorne. He is apparently still receiving information from Rickon, not surprising considering the amount of people Jon "Skull-stacker" Snow has been killing. Will also be interesting to see what happens to the new Myr after Eddard leaves. Good POV from Garlan, though too short for my liking. And also good to read the kind of devastation left after Renly and the plague have ravaged Kings Landing. Makes it more visceral. Hoping to read about the clash between Jon "Otherbane" Snow and the Hightower/Redwyne maniacs soon.

that was sneaky of you, Master Splinter approves.

Did you just put the TMNT and their father in this story ?

Loved Nym’s POV! She’s a bit rude but she’s a new mother so I don’t hold it against her 😭 Every pov has been shattered by this war in some way. And a lot of people have the Martell’s in their crosshairs! I don’t think there’s any way for Nymeria to help them even if she wanted to. The reason the Myrish ppl have chosen to put themselves behind Ned Stark makes so much sense in this chapter. Who would want to fight the Heartless? He’s a good shield to stand behind… seeing how everyone has fared now that their various protectors have fallen makes Ned all the more appealing. Great chapter! Thanks for sharing 💐

Thanks for the chapter. A little bit of a slower one this week but I still enjoyed it. I love Garlans arc throughout this story. Those first few chapters he goes from a smart but slightly naive boy who is excited for his first battles - realizing what war can become when emotions and religion are involved - only fighting anymore because his kin is in too deep - fuck the war effort I'm trying to keep my honour and do some good - everything has gone to shit, it's time to join everyone else in being ruthless for vengeance.

I think during the Shireen-Ned discussion, if we can get some words to Davos which ensures some of the ruling powers of shireen will be a great addition. He is not one to be afraid to speak truth and somewhere have some ideas from Ned as to where Shireen can develop her role.

Abhishek Kumar

Good chapter. I think this Garlan arc has some of the best character development I’ve seen you write. A good man who starts out a bit naive to the world, who then suffers one demoralizing event after another, and learns that the honor and chivalry he holds dear has been trampled on so many times as to be rendered worthless. Garlan’s self loathing and hatred for what the world has made him become is beyond compelling. At this point I think that if he could do, or even witness, one last honorable act, he could die at peace. Maybe it would involve a trip to Lys? Really fascinating stuff.

Thanks for the chapter
