    Summary

    Many things are said of house Arryn and its honour. Is it not their words, after all? As High as Honour... Fewer things are said of the house's heiress, Shara Arryn, lest she might hear them and retaliate.

    Witted Shara Arryn, treacherous Shara Arryn, whose schemes only led to the Red Keep's cells after the disaster of the Battle of the Blackwater. She should have died there, forgotten of all, but a victorious Tywin Lannister has other plans for her.

    But it takes more than a gilded cage to stop a falcon from flying away.

    Summary

    Lady Alyssa of House Marbrand knew she was destined for greatness. Naturally, she's well-equipped in all main character requirements--conventionally attractive? Check. Gentle, sick mother? Check. POS father? Check. Morally grey, cool but poorly researched hobbies, feminine rage, a touch of Mary Sue? Check, check, check, and check.

    The board was set, the pieces in place, and Lady Alyssa was ready to join the game, through an arranged marriage with the realm's richest, most powerful man, Tywin Lannister... oh wait, no, to his son, Tyrion Lannister.

    Well, Tywin isn't off limits either.

    Summary

    "I dance in dangerous fables, walk a woods with trees white as bone. It's always winter and I'm always pressing my face against something warm with blood." - Yasmin Belkhyr, 'Blizzard'.

    “Men die,” Barbrey tells her, bone-white with anger, eyes flashing. “Men die, Donella. Should Stark’s boy not sire a son on you, and if the Bastard has the Dreadfort-,”

    “You speak as if Robb Stark were in fragile health,” Nell rolls her eyes. “You’re being paranoid.”

    “Willam was in excellent health until he rode off to his death at Ned Stark’s side,” Barbrey hisses. “Do you think he did not promise me we would have children and a long life together before he left? Do you think he did not promise to come back to me? You cannot know what the future might bring. My lord husband survived a war only to die in Dorne. Men and their promises are not your safety nor your refuge. Land is. Power is. Never forget that.”

    (In which Nell Bolton contends with both her mother's bloodstained legacy and her father's bloodthirsty bastard, and along the way claims a beast for a bridegroom.)

    Summary

    Celia Targaryen was the youngest of her siblings and the only one to take after their grandmother, Bertha Blackwood. After the victory of the War of the Ninepenny Kings, her father was determined to strengthen the ties between the crown and the West through marriage and a betrothal between Celia and Ser Tywin Lannister was set. Their marriage began as many often did, with broken promises and hearts determined never to mend. As the politics of Westeros shift, Celia must prove herself to her husband that she is loyal to their family, even if he sometimes proves not to be.
