    Summary

    Tywin Lannister gazes at the young man standing in front of him, his eyes as cold as the North itself, and regrets ever losing Eddard Stark if this is his replacement. "You are nothing like your father," he acknowledges, with grudging admiration.

    "True," Robb Stark replies, a thin smile upon his face. It doesn't quite reach his eyes. "And neither are you."

    In which Robb Stark plays the game just as well as he plays at war.

    Summary

    "Stannis Baratheon will break the kingdom before he ever rules it."

    When Robert dies of wounds sustained on the Trident, it falls to his younger brother to put the kingdom together. Stannis is not the man his brother was. He commands fear and respect, but not love, and even as he grips the kingdom it seems to come apart in his hands.

    Lyanna Stark did not die in Dorne. But a part of her, the silly romantic part, did die, and now she must find what her place in the world is to be.

    Summary

    He sighed and collapsed into his armchair. Even from across the room, she could feel in her bones the putrid smell of ale on his breath. "I don't want to. I have to."

    "What?" she asked

    He had a dead look in his eyes. If she didn't know better, she may have been speaking to a living corpse. "I can't win. I can't escape. I can't scheme my way out. The Old Gods have cursed me to do this over and again, on until there's nothing left to lift the sword. I shatter myself against the walls, on and on, until it's over or I've gone mad in trying to do the impossible. The only escape is death, and I can never die."
