the moment the smiles died || click here for a closer look

Ned remembered the moment when all the smiles died, when Prince Rhaegar Targaryen urged his horse past his own wife, the Dornish princess Elia Martell, to lay the queen of beauty's laurel in Lyanna's lap. He could see it still: a crown of winter roses, blue as frost. Ned Stark reached out his hand to grasp the flowery crown, but beneath the pale blue petals the thorns lay hidden. He felt them clawing at his skin, sharp and cruel, saw the slow trickle of blood run down his fingers, and woke, trembling, in the dark.

For a few days it was feared that Storm's End might suffer the same fate as Harrenhal, for Argilac's daughter Argella barred her gates at the approach of Orys Baratheon and the Targaryen host, and declared herself the Storm Queen. Rather than bend the knee, the defenders of Storm's End would die to the last man, she promised when Queen Rhaenys flew Meraxes into the castle to parley. "You may take my castle, but you will win only bones and blood and ashes," she announced...but the soldiers of the garrison proved less eager to die. That night they raised a peace banner, threw open the castle gate, and delivered Lady Argella gagged, chained, and naked to the camp of Orys Baratheon.

Just finished my annual re-read of the many faced god which means it's once again time to gush about how much I love your writing. It's such a special story to me and I'm just in awe of your talent. I hope this doesn't at all come across as pushy, but whether there are any more chapters or not I just have to thank you for putting it out into the world. Cheers!

Hi Anon,

Thanks for getting in touch, I am glad you enjoy the story enough to be rereading it. I do still plan to write further chapters. I have one drafted and another partially drafted and my plan was to draft about five chapters to cover some events I am excited to write about and then post those chapters every one to two weeks for readers. Those plans stalled because as I said in my reply to the other Anon today I have been so busy with work and have so many writing projects for work and that has been using up all my energy for writing.

2023 was also horrible for me health-wise which meant I didn't have capacity for many things I had wanted to do last year including writing fic.

I do still intend to get those chapters written but i cannot say when at this point.

I have been achieving a lot with my work though so that's a positive.

Hi Anon,

Thanks so much for this lovely message. I have a job I really enjoy but it keeps me very busy and involves lots of writing so I haven't had energy for writing fic. I do intend to return to writing fic at some point but at this stage I couldn't say when.
