    Summary

    ‘I shall hide it all away, in a place no one will ever find. Everything, everything. But especially my soul.’ - Sabahattin Ali

    Early in life, almost before he was conscious of it, Mycroft Holmes understood that he had a duty of care to his brother - a troubled, untethered man, sensitive to all the miasmic connections of the material world.

    He had allowed himself, through the course of his life, a single active choice unrelated (but in the end, useful) to this obligation: his career. His pride and joy and the ultimate use of his cerebral talents.

    As Sherlock matures, and his tenuous connection to humanity writ large strengthens, Mycroft finds he is needed less and less. Increasingly deprived of his single focus, he pours himself into his work, keeping global status quo by whatever means necessary.

    By chance he meets Mariam. A woman, not a goldfish, but a representation of all things he works to tamp down in the world. As an unlikely, stumbling friendship threatens to blossom into something more, both Mycroft and Mariam are faced with contradiction, questioning the morality of the other and the meaning of their own paths in life.

    Summary

    When the Master of Death closed her eyes for the last time, she expected to greet Death as an old friend and finally find the long-overdue peace she deserved.

    Reborn as Frigga Stark, the only child and heiress of Lord Ellard, the girl who was once Iolanthe Potter must navigate a world where magic heresy. Her childhood is a struggle of reconciliation as she adjusts to a woman's life in a patriarchal society while her magic hums beneath her skin.

    But the North is a hard land and Frigga is no longer a martyr. Seeing the vultures circle her father’s seat, she uses her past-life cunning to solidify her claim as the first ruling Lady of Winterfell, outmaneuvering ambitious uncles and traditionalist lords alike.

    When King Jaehaerys I shatters tradition by binding the North to the Crown, Frigga finds herself matched with the most volatile man in the realm: Prince Daemon Targaryen. The Rogue Prince arrives expecting a submissive and boring Northern bride, but he quickly discovers that while he rides a dragon, his wife holds the powers of a god.

    And yet, there is no hope for respite: when it comes to the game of thrones, you either win or you die.

    Summary

    The gods have seen the end of the Song of Ice and Fire – and it ends wrong.

    In a final act of defiance, the Old Gods of the North and the Fourteen Flames of Valyria intervene together, forging a new piece on the board of fate.

    From death, they breathe life into a stillborn Stark girl, daughter of Lord Rickon Stark. The Old Gods grant her their ancient watchfulness, while Valyria gifts her a spark of dragonfire.

    She is not meant to ride a dragon. She is meant to stand beside one. Armed with hidden gifts and a destiny never meant to exist, she becomes the gods’ last gamble to change the fate of the world – because this time, there will be no second chance.
