    Summary

    *Abandoned* but onto the next. Sleeping Sickness

    After a falling out with the most feared assassins in the known world, Arya Stark finally decides to go home. Of course why would it be that simple? Arya never seems to reach the places she sets out for, not without at least a few complications anyway.
    In the North Jon Snow deals with the responsibilities of his new title, and reconciling with all the things he's lost. Sadly for him, he's never been very good at letting go, and I'm afraid death didn't make it any easier for him.
    Finally, serving his new Queen faithfully, we have Tyrion Lannister. Just trying to hold things together, and answering his burning question about a disappearing girl and the iron coin she left weighing in his pocket.

    *This is mostly a Jon and Arya POV fic, with some Tyrion, and small Aegon and Samwell chapters. Maybe some more if I change me mind. There shall be smut, but in the future kindstranger. This is what they call a slowburn I believe.

    Summary

    In the two hundred years since the Ravkan Civil War, Ravka has changed for better and worse. Airfleets determine military might. Wars are colder. Radicals murmur of the monarchy’s end. Through all of this, the Second Army endures, still a force to be reckoned with.

    When Jude Duarte is seven, her parents are branded traitors to the Ravkan throne and killed. Jude is taken by their murderer and raised in the Little Palace, even though she and her twin sister Taryn possess no Grisha power themselves. They grow up surrounded by beauty and enchantment and cruelty. No one embodies these traits better than Prince Cardan, the youngest and worst son of the royal family and Grisha to boot.

    Then a coup forces Jude and Cardan to flee Os Alta, and these adversaries must learn to work together or face the consequences. When they rouse the dormant evil awaiting them on the Shadow Fold, they find themselves fighting not just for the throne, but for the fate of their world—and their very souls.
