The yard ran hot with bodies and noise. Men stood shoulder to shoulder on the packed sand. They shouted names and wagers. They stamped heels for their own. The banners on the walls hung still in the salt air. Beyond them the cliffs dropped to the water. The ground in the ring was hard. Dust rose and fell with every step.

Stephan Shield waited in that dust with bare hands. His shield and h...

A Cold God, Chapter 37

Their meeting had gone as expected. Few words were needed when thoughts already passed openly between us. After the barest of introductions, the work began. Thell and his kind understood the purpose of their presence, and they submitted without hesitation. One by one, all twenty-five White Walkers lowered themselves to the examination slabs prepared by my Astartes. Their movements were silent, ...

Alexandra and I stood over the unconscious Fallen Angel like two mechanics staring at a busted car we weren’t quite sure how to fix. We’d hauled her back to the condo and done the reasonable thing: strapped her down until sh...

Update

Hey guys! As many of you are aware, I'm a law student and we've got exams this week; so, I have to study and won't be able to update. That said, we'll be back to regular updates starting next week. Hoping for you understanding. Toodles!

The Breaker of the Oceans, Chapter 37

For reasons of their own, which they spoke of to no one, both Rhaenyra Targaryen and her uncle Daemon left Pyke before the wedding. They mounted their dragons and rose into the air at dawn, their wings tearing through the mist and their roars shaking the cliffs. By the time the sun had reached its height, the two of them were gone, and no word was left of their intentions. None of their servant...

A Cold God, Chapter 36

Our meeting was held in the place that belonged to us alone, a hollow that no other will could intrude upon. It was the heart of the end, the still-point where time and matter thinned to nothing and only those bound to me could endure. There were no walls, no air, no shape. Yet here my twenty Astartes gathered with me, though our bodies lingered inert inside the Capsule. We did not wear flesh i...

I twisted mid-air, the girl still limp across my shoulder, and craned my neck back toward the sky. My first thought was that I was hallucinating from lack of sleep. My second was that the ...

The yard was too loud and too quiet all at once.

Rhaenyra stood where she had fallen back, her fingers still slack around the leather grip of her sword. The world seemed narrowed to the sound of her own breath. Too fast. Too shallow. Her tongue tasted of iron and ash. She could still feel the echo of the blow—Hela’s blade striking hers with such certainty that the steel had rattled he...

A Cold God, Chapter 35

“Just like that?” Malcador’s voice came quiet through the tether between their minds, its tone carrying no more weight than a passing thought might in another man. The Emperor exhaled, a short huff more amused than bitter, and let the corner of his mouth turn in something like a smile. “That must have been the shortest reunion I’ve ever seen you make.”

“What else was there t...

One month.

It had been one whole month since Alexandra and I crossed into South Korea, and in that time we had built for ourselves two lives—one that could be photographed, filed away, and shown to neighbors, and another that could never be spoken...

“I’d visited Pyke once when I was but a young lad,” Viserys Targaryen said as he walked beside Valon Greyjoy through the trade quarter that now clung to the cliffs like an iron barnacle. The two men moved without escort, save for his Kingsguard shadowing them at a distance. Around them, the living heart of the Iron Islands beat—merchants barking prices in thick tongues, carts creaking u...

A Cold God, Chapter 34

The colony ships came just as Captain Lokir had said they would. Two weeks to the day. Twenty vessels in all, some sleek and long like knives, others bloated with cargo. They cut low across the clouds in slow procession, casting wide shadows over the snows. The first of them landed at the foot of the southern ridge, kicking up plumes of frost and loose stone that blew across the People’s tent...

I had twenty thousand War Points. That was a lot, but it also wasn’t enough to buy every shiny thing the System dangled in front of me.

First thing was to figure out what I didn’t want, just to start cutting down the list. Weapo...
