Arya Stark
Arya ran through the forest, her breaths coming in short, ragged bursts. The underbrush clawed at her legs as she sprinted past the gnarled trees, each step fueled by desperation.
“She headed this way!” The shout came from behind her, echoing through the dense foliage. The voice grew louder, the thud of boots on the forest floor growing closer.
“Shit,” she whispered, her tone sharp and strained. A dull ache throbbed in her side where her h...

[Author’s Note: New PC, who dis?
No, but seriously, the hardware issues I’ve been mentioning just got worse and worse, and at some point, my pc just shutdown.

So, look forward to getting more chapters, and I’m very sorry for the delay.]

Theon Greyjoy
The sea water crashed gently with his torso, as he knelt amidst the salty shore of Pyke. The wind was cold, and carried with a salty aftertaste.
A tall, thin man with fierce black eyes and a beak of a nose stood over him, he garbed himself in nothing but a seaskin clout to cover his privates, his uncle, Aero- No, it's apparently Damphair now.
Theon remembers as a child, his youngest uncle was once an amiable man, fond of songs, ale, and women. ...

A week, that’s how long he thought things should simmer before he could come back to work.
So here he was, with what began to become his council of close advisors.
Rickard Karstark, Greatjon Umber, Roose Bolton, Brynden Tully, Stevron Frey, Tytos Blackwood, Janos Bracken –if only to keep him silent- and Jason Mallister.
Each one of them bringing their own set of skills and experiences to the table.

He lifted his bow upwards, aiming for one of two boats drifting away on the Tumblestone.
Nothing a flaming arrow, he lets go of it, letting it fly through the air with a whooshing sound, finally landing on his target, and putting it aflame.
Another arrow is shot to his right, this one hitting the other.
The air was somber, as funerals were wont to do, and it was filled with the sounds of his mother’s sobbing, her face smushed into her uncl...

Edmure Tully
“Even now, we’re hearing news of Lannister forces retreating, my Lord.” His Maester Vyman informed him. “From the Twins to the Gods Eye, Lannister forces are finding themselves outnumbered and outclassed, especially once news of the Mountain’s end was spread.”
Edmure nods, a smile on his face.

She barged into the smithy with reckless abandon, ignoring the shouts and grumbles of other bothered by her pushing.

A calloused hand holds her shoulder suddenly, turning her around.

“…- We need to set a new steward for the Wailing Tower.” The designated castellan for the castle says.
It is moments like these that Kevan starts to resent his position as the younger brother. While Tywin is left to stew and rage in the privacy of his quarters, he had the abject honor of taking care of the miscellaneous matters.
He pinches the bridge of his brows, feeling the blood pooling and giving him a headache. “What happened to ...

I'm writing this from my phone, if you noticed that there were no releases for a while, then you're right. I'm having some technical difficulties right now, so until my laptop is fixed I don't think I'll be able to release any new chapters, Sorry.
I'll try my utmost to fix this within the week, and the moment I do I'll try to blitz a couple of chapters until I'm caught up.
Sorry again.

She was walking in the Godswood of the castle, practicing her new abilities.
Robb wasn’t wrong, she took very easily to subverting other beasts, at first, she tried other pigeons, like Gallant, which worked swiftly. Yet, she faced several limitations, she had to concentrate constantly on her target, she couldn’t control them beyond a certain distance, and only simple commands could be given.

Thellsa’s left brow twitches from annoyances, but she ignores his comment nonetheless.

White roots was all he saw, some as large as mountains while others as thin as a babe’s arm. Within their veins of red sap were stars that seemed as distant as the sky, each one with its own color and shape, as special as a snowflake.
At the middle of it all was a clearing of obsidian stone, keeping the encroaching roots at bay with a singular ring of onyx fires. At the center of it, in return, was the crouching form of a bald, frail old man.

Robb sat in Lord Lefford’s solar, a few days after capturing the castle.
He had deemed it prudent to wait for Tywin’s attempts to cross into the Westerland to be over before announcing their victory and heading back in, hoping to bleed his numbers further, and to see if his plan to trap the Mountain would work.
He knew beforehand that Tywin would choose to attempt to “liberate” his kingdom from his presence, and sufficient preparation woul...

“Last we heard, a great host led by Addam Marbrand attempted to cross the Red Fork by way of Mummer’s ford, and was rebuffed by Lord Janos Bracken and his men.” Stevron Frey rubs his beard. “Great victories abound, my Lord. I do not believe we have to worry about the Lannisters any time soon.”

It was very comforting, Brynden thought, to wage a war with skillful commanders at your helm.
He was not a strategizing sort, he admits, never for commanding large armies, the chaos that is logistics, and the politicking between petty lords and their matters.
He was skilled when it came to being at the thick of it, scouting deep in enemy lines, ambushing baggage trains, or hitting the enemy the place he least expects it to. He was most comforta...

His horse was step for step with the young lord’s, slowly marching along the rocky ground as they made their way to their destination.
In hindsight, Stark’s plan to bypass the Golden Tooth was simple, and not even original. The Young Dragon had used the same method of using goat paths to avoid the traps and ambushes of the Dornish.
Yet those paths were known, and any who enquired on the matter would have found out about them.

At this point, war councils were routine for Brynden.
He experienced so many battles, so many wars, that the usual bickering, arrogant lords believing their experience beating down a couple of unwashed bandits accords them the right to dictate strategy, and tempers flaring between factions who desire different things due to different reasons were simple matters.
It was his experience that made this particular meeting all the more strange.

The silence was awkward, eerily so.
Whilst Theon stood in Robb’s private quarters, the latter simply sat with his direwolf at his side, silently staring at him.
“Why?” Theon urged himself to speak, the question stuck in his mind ever since he leant of his friend’s betrayal, he belayed his desire to ask it due to other circumstances, yet this is the first time since news of Ned Stark’s capture that they were face to face in privacy.
