    Summary

    Quen felt peculiar up on the dais, flanked by stags and lions and wolves.

    The Usurper had once been a formidable man, with blazing eyes and a massive war hammer. Now, he was just a red-faced fat man, a pathetic drunk who ate as gracefully as a half-starved hog.

    His Queen seemed to be a perpetually unhappy woman. Cersei Lannister was as beautiful as the singers said, though the woman had all the warmth of a dead fish.

    She might have done well in the north, Quen thought, almost pitying.

    (Or: The gods in their blind malice give Theon the feeble body of a woman.)

    Summary

    Tamah qa brok vaversi, ji enoah qa mikodail orhma bika.
    Outside it is cold, but we are all warm together here.
    -A Jedi Saying, from Dai Bendu

    Abruptly trapped and stranded on an unpopulated planet behind enemy lines, and poised to remain stuck there for the foreseeable future, Obi-wan Kenobi has a lot of time on his hands and a single connection to the outside world to speak with. Unfortunately, it only works one way. The rest of the galaxy gains an open line to the unfiltered thoughts of one of its most famous Jedi Masters.

    Or, the meditations of a man sitting at rock bottom.

    Summary

    “Ask your question, Daenerys,” Stannis said.

    Daenerys took a breath, and asked the question that had plagued her ever since leaving King’s Landing. “Your brother, the king, only lost his betrothed, and he hates me. Eddard Stark lost over half his family because of mine, and yet he will welcome me as his kin?” Her voice rose at the last, as she was no longer able to hide her disbelief, her fear.

    “Ned Stark is a man of honor,” Stannis said. “He has no interest in avenging his family by tormenting you.” Unlike the king, neither of them said aloud.

    (In a world where Viserys Targaryen escaped Westeros without his mother or sister, Daenerys Targaryen grows up as the ward of Stannis Baratheon, living at the mercy of the Great Houses that brought about the downfall of her family.)
