What is dead may never die (Chapter 103)

Brothers

Jaime POV

The road was rough. The cart I rode in bumped into every rock and hole in the road. My legs and hands were tied up and chained to the cart. Like every prisoner, we were transported to Storm’s End. My back ached, as I didn’t have time to rest from falling off my horse. Stannis, stripped of armor, quickly took me prisoner, put me in rags, and chained me to a cart.

I can barely remember how the battle ended. All I remember seeing was our forces being over...

Chapter 73

Kaen didn’t know how he should describe what he felt. After receiving the sealed reanimated Kaguya clan, Tenzo’s clone personally reported what they found and experienced. Tenzo shared his suspicions on why Orochimaru was holding back. But Kaen understood well what Orochimaru was doing. The snake was acting arrogantly.

“It is a well-crafted plan,” Shikaku agreed with Kaen once he shared the report. “Show enough power to threaten the village but not enough for ...

The wedding of the lord of the North

Edmure POV

Beneath the windows of the Guest House, an underground hot spring feeds three small pools, with only wooden walls separating them for some privacy. To quite Arianne, it was the best part of Winterfell. I couldn’t disagree with her on that one. We would soak in the hot waters every evening and morning, drinking wine and enjoying each other.

The wedding was only a few days away, and as more quests arrived, I heard more complain...

Chapter 7

Snow wasn’t used to his powers yet, so he flapped his wings extensively to stay above Law and out of his reach. His metal feathers rustled as he tried to control his body. Under him, Law looked at him, but seeing that Snow had escaped his Room, he turned his attention to Caribou, who still was holding a polar bear. With one hand movement, the bear appeared next to Law.

Snow didn’t have time to tell Caribou to run before Law swung his sword, cutting Caribou into piece...

Blood waters (Chapter 34)

Chapter 34

Shizune was fed up with Princess Tsunade’s problem with gambling. But at this point, she realized that nothing was stopping her master. Like always, they would fall into the cycle of Tsunade losing, then taking a debt before failing to repay it. Then, all that would be left was to beat up the debtors and escape the town for another town.

It was only a question of time before there wasn’t a town where they weren’t known. Too bad, the Land of the Fire was too big fo...

The fated

Jaime POV

I looked at the forty thousand men at my command. They were armored and armed well, but behind those helms were eyes that hadn’t seen blood. Green boys and old men alike marched with me. The men from the Reach, the Westerlands, and the Crownlands combined as hosts. It was formidable and probably the strongest host in the Seven Kingdoms.

We had only one task: take down Stannis and Storm’s End. After hearing that we were returning, my father wasn’t ha...

Chapter 72

Sasuke felt a chill running through his back as he and the rest of the team entered the cave. It was an unassuming cave hidden under a massive tree. They were led here by following Orochimaru’s tracks. So far, they could find only bits and pieces following Orochimaru, but they hoped to find more this time. Most of his hideouts were already cleared. There was almost no place for him to hide.

There was barely any resistance of the late. Kakashi and the others quickly de...

The Redfish (Edmure SI) chapter 124

The Festive North

Edmure POV

It has been some time since I saw this. Moat Cailin was the first thing that greeted us as we entered the North. It was now a real stronghold, with tall walls, overbearing towers overlooking the area, and the keep to hold countless people. We had to pass through Moat Cailin’s gates to continue our ride to Winterfell, and it was the place where Arianne, with her entourage, would join us.

Moat Cailin was connected to all regions of the North by w...

Will of the embers (Hiruzen SI) chapter 9

Chapter 9

It was almost hard to believe how peaceful the village was. It was only possible because of the Third Hokage’s hard work. Nobody could deny that without the Third Hokage, it would have taken a lot more time for the village to stand back on its feet. And even though not many liked to be relocated, they could live peacefully here thanks to the Third Hokage.

It might not look like it, but Fugaku quickly caught on that the Third Hokage was worried for the Uchiha Clan. Not ...

Chapter 6

Sengoku, the Fleet Admiral of the Marines, brows furrowed at the sound of Garp, the Vice Admiral and Hero of the Marines, eating his crackers. If He wasn’t buried under the paperwork, he could ignore Garp easily, but as new pirate crews started to rise and enter the grand line, he was buried under the work, and the higher-ups wanted results.

As he was about to yell at Garp for him to stay quiet or leave, his Den Den Mushi started to ring. He could already tell it wasn�...

Chapter 71

It was too tempting not to try it. Kaen couldn’t throw away the research Orochimaru and Danzo made, no matter how much he disagreed with their methods. Hashirama’s cells would make his body more powerful than he hoped to achieve. And that is not speaking of the ability to use Wood release and having enormous regenerative abilities.

Then there were Orochimaru’s subjects. If he could find a way to use Natural energy besides special abilities, nothing could stop him ...

The Redfish (Edmure SI) chapter 123

Invitation from the North

Edmure POV

The Westerlands have been through a lot. Losing war isn’t pretty, so when the Lannisters lost, the people of the Westerlands suffered the most. Without its lord Paramount, the lands descended into small skirmishes. There wasn’t a lord powerful enough in the Westerlands to control these lands. So, they quickly descended into petty conflicts.

Even the King couldn’t do much damage control within the lands that joined the crownlands. Th...

Chapter 5

This situation wasn't good. More and more soldiers were approaching them, and Snow felt like his time had come. Their guns aimed at them and their swords pointing, ready to finish them off. Looking over Caribou, Snow found that he was finishing up consuming everything in the room. He didn’t look concerned, as he knew nothing could hurt him.

Snow will have to start training Caribou in using his devil fruit power when they get out of there. He should do this way faster. ...

Will of the embers (Hiruzen SI) chapter 8

Chapter 8

Hiruzen looked at the steaming cup of ramen and then back to his youngest son. He didn’t know if he should be depressed that his dinner consisted of ramen in a cup or that his son proclaimed that he wanted to join the Twelve Guardians. With his memories of Asuma, it was quite hard to accept, but he knew it wasn’t his decision to make.

“If that's what you want, I have no objections,” Hiruzen said, as he looked at the ramen was getting colder. “But you just a chu...

Blood waters (Chapter 33)

Chapter 33

Utakata didn’t understand what he felt as he faced Harusame. It couldn’t be fear. As strong as Harusame was, he was still a retired old man. Utakata has killed two members of the Seven Swordsmen. There was no chance the Harusame could defeat him if Utakata gave his all. Nothing could stop him now. So, why did he feel so uncertain?

“Utakata,” Harusame’s voice was calm. It was even reassuring. “You have come far.”

“Shut up,” It was a lie; everythin...

What is dead may never die (Chapter 101)

Sea lord and horse lord

Theon POV

I could only see about ten thousand when the Dothraki arrived by our gates. The rest were slaves following behind them. Upon closer look, they looked quite old. Most were almost the same age as Ser Barristan or the Tattered Prince, with greying hair and wrinkles on their faces. Maybe one in ten was a younger man.

There was a tense, silent moment between us as neither moved to talk. My men were on the walls with raised bows, aiming at the Dot...

Chapter 70

Another day passed with no progress in sight. Sasuke was getting annoyed at it. Every hideout they discovered was a dead end so far. It felt like Orochimaru was playing with them, and Sasuke hated that feeling. From the very start, Orochimaru probably knew of them as he was always a step ahead of them. It was discerning.

“It’s time to switch the watch,” Sasuke turned to Neji as he walked up to him. “You can take your rest.”

Sasuke only nodded as he left ...

Will of the embers (Hiruzen SI) chapter 7

Chapter 7

Sometimes, it was easier to be buried in paperwork than to deal with certain people. Today, Hiruzen was confronted by the Head of the Hyuga clan and his very pregnant wife. They were expecting their daughter to be born next month. Having Byakugan had its advantages when they could see clearly in their bodies and determine not only the sex of their child but also how mature the fetus was.

It sounded disgusting, and Hiruzen wasn’t jealous of the ability. Especially when ...

The Redfish (Edmure SI) chapter 122

Preparing for the Winter

Edmure POV

Riverrun was a humble castle, considering how many men in arms my household had. And it wouldn’t be a mistake to call my family one of the richest families in Westeros, if not the richest. Tyrells were pretty close to us, but it was hard to tell as they wouldn’t tell anyone how much gold they had, and rather than store the gold in dark vaults, I have put them in various projects.

The simplest of these projects were conducted right here...

No chapters this week due injury

Sorry, I have sprained my wrist, because I tried to catch myself when I slipped on ice like an idiot.  I was barely able to finish the Will of Embers chapter. I was almost done with it.

It is extremely painful to write for me as I can't bend my wrist at all. And it takes too much effort to write with only my left hand. The doctor said that I would be able to move my hand normally in a week.

Chapter 6

The last few weeks were quite peaceful. Hiruzen didn’t have to deal with any big names in this world and could suffer in peace doing all the paperwork. At least he wasn’t alone. Kakashi had no choice but to work next to the Third Hokage. So far, his job was to go through all the paperwork that reached Hiruzen and arrange it from most important to the least.

Hiruzen was able to catch up on his studies. But so far, he only got to up the theory of chakra natures and oth...

Blood waters (Chapter 32)

Chapter 32

Harusame was concerned. He couldn’t find Utakata anywhere and knew the boy hadn’t received any mission, so he should be in the village. Nobody had seen him, nor was he in his home or training grounds. Harusame couldn’t help but get worried. In the past year, Utakata has pushed his body to breaking point in his training.

It was nothing but torture from Harusame’s perspective. He couldn’t remember how often he found Utakata passed out on the training grounds. Ev...

Cleaning the house

Theon POV

A new day came to Yunkai as the rest of the city’s forces were subjugated. Nothing escaped my eyes. Every single soldier who didn’t escape or surrender was quickly captured or killed. The slaves were released from their chains. And told to be thankful to the Mother of Dragons for their freedom. Most of them weren’t slaves for long but already had everlasting scars.

Then came the fun part of pillaging. As promised, the gold and gifts I have ...

Chapter 69

With the information that they got from Tayuya, Kaen and his team quickly found the first Orochimaru stronghold. Hidden well, under massive trees, it was an underground bunker. If it wasn’t clear to whom this hideout belonged before, then the marks of the snakes quickly confirmed it. Looking around with his sharingan, Kaen didn’t see any traps.

Yet before entering it, Hana’s dogs got a smell of something they didn’t like. Yugao quickly took point, even though Ka...

The show of power

Jon POV

It felt like I was in this position for more than ten years, and I felt like I was growing older that fast. Sometimes, it is hard to reflect on my life because I don’t know how far I should look. In the past year, so many things happened that I have only started catching up to it. Before I became the king, I didn’t do anything and was nobody. Just faint memories were left of my life before I became someone else.

Jaehaerys Targaryen, the third of...

Chapter 5

The Third Hokage sat silently by his desk for quite a while now, not doing anything but staring at his table. Kakashi Hatake, an ANBU operative nicknamed Dog, couldn’t help noticing such moments. After the attack of the Demon Fox, Kakashi harbored many doubts, especially when he and other high-ranking shinobi were ordered not to help in the battle because they were considered children.

That order came from the Third Hokage himself. If not for those orders, he might hav...

Blood waters (Chapter 31)

Chapter 31

Looking back, Utakata could see where it all went to shit. He didn’t take the Shinobi World seriously when he decided to get into it. So, the world chewed him up and spat him down. He was left with nothing but regret. The regret of the life he has chosen. Utakata didn’t have any right even to complain. It was his choices that let him here. As almost surrounded by a thin evening mist.

Looking back, he fucked up with his choice. It was hard to believe now that he thou...

What is dead may never die (Chapter 99)

The end of a long night

Theon POV

All he needed to do was hold back as many men as possible until reinforcements freed one of the pyramids. Then, if Windblown joined us, the victory would be at our hands. But I wasn’t one to depend on the others. The battlefield was in my control, with Yunkai forces spread out thin. There was no reason for him to sit and do nothing.

“I don’t think I will be able to revive you if there is nothing left of your body,” Thoros said, looki...

Chapter 68

Kaen looked impassively at Jiraiya as he tried to act calm and carefree. He gave dozens of reasons why it would be better for him to leave, and then he continued to tell Kaen that he needed to leave. Kaen listened in silence and got a lot of entertainment as Jiraiya’s coolness broke down into a nervous wreck. It was so easy to read him that it wasn’t even funny anymore.

“Three years, you say,” Kaen commented, finally breaking his silence.

“More like two ...

The cursed ones

Edmure POV

Harrenhal's holdings are some of the richest in Westeros, claiming vast tracts of green fertile land that reach as far as the hills of House Wode near the crownlands. Yet, it was costly to maintain and even more costly to repair. I have sunk countless gold coins, hired stonemasons, and bought materials to rebuild the immersive castle and its towers.

Harrentown was near the castle. The last time I saw it, it was a big, lively town with thousands of ...
