    Summary

    War changed men. Through fire and blood, through the fog of war and the death of his friends, Eddard Stark had seen the last vestiges of his battered faith burnt to ash. Faith in Gods, faith in men.

    He couldn’t keep his eyes closed after that, regardless of how much he desired to.

    No more.

    Eddard Stark was done believing in the vain pretences of honour and virtue.

    He would not repeat the same mistakes that had led his father and his brother to an early grave. He would keep what little family remained to him safe by all means necessary, the Others take his honour.

    The Gods would understand, Ned hoped.

    That is, if they even cared.

     

    Or:

    In the aftermath of the Rebellion, Eddard Stark plays the game of thrones, and he intends to win. Far-reaching and unexpected butterflies ensue. This is their story.

    A monster-dong, long-runner of a story.

    Not a fix-it fic.

    Summary

    “To the Giant of Flea Bottom,

    Do not think this is over. I have paid three men in the Reach to follow you. If you sleep, they will be watching. If you eat, they will be counting the bites. If you find yourself some common omega wench that you’ve fallen in love with, I want their fingers brought to me in a box of salt. You are a stain on the laws of gods and men, and I will watch you rot from across the world.

    — A.T.”

    Dunk is only trying to be of honorable service, but his travels are constantly interrupted by “hate” letters from a certain exiled prince across the Narrow Sea.

    Summary

    “The Fellowship is to set out in December,” Lord Elrond explained, “I require your services as a Messenger to travel with them, until you’ve passed the mountains, or until Gandalf sees fit to release you.”
    Panic coiled in Rhosynel’s chest, as two things became apparent. Firstly, that she could easily end up roped into travelling further on the whims of a wizard. And secondly, that if word reached her employer that she point-blank refused Lord Elrond, she’d be kicked from the Messenger services.
    In other words, Rhosynel was trapped.

    *

    Working as a messenger Rhosynel is accustomed to travelling the length and breadth of Middle Earth, so carrying a missive to the village of Bree should have been easy. But this simple task sets off a chain of events, entangling her in the lives of strangers and the fate of Middle Earth, which leaves her fighting to keep both them, and herself, alive.

    Completed!
