    Summary

    Things might have gone differently, had he not held me in his arms then. Had I not looked at him, with his own eyes, he might more easily have left me there in the straw.

    Then it would not have been so hard for him, I think; to surrender me to another man’s care as I believe he had intended to do. It would have been the wiser choice. I would have remained an open secret: a transgression, once acknowledged, then discreetly set aside. Prince Chivalry’s honour would have suffered a bruising, but it would have remained intact.

    Had my father not claimed me, he might still be alive.

    But I named him. And with the old power that names hold, I sealed him to it, and thus to his fate. My father raised me as he would a true-born son, in a court where all recognised me as a catalyst.

    And a Catalyst I became.

    Summary

    History is the combination of small events, as much as it is of large ones, and this story explores the moments behind the scenes that go on to shape the events that unfold. For a Prophet and his Catalyst especially, no moment is without significance.

    For months, authors bandied compliments over equally amazing works of fiction. Finally, they have united to tell the unseen edition of The Realm of the Elderlings series. The first of three beasts of fiction, Prophet's Threads follows the original Farseer Trilogy, offering insight into the minds of each character with whom our heroes interact.

    Shoutout to the roleplay that provided the base for this fic, and for the long hours spent fine tuning and refining the details.

    Some direct quotations from the original works are used; all credit for the creation of the world and the people within it goes to Robin Hobb.
    Since the release of Assassin's Fate, the endgame of this work is no longer canon-compliant, but the details leading up to it are.

    Please read and review!
