Scions of the Cruel King

Halyx_Stark
In Scions of the Cruel King, the Targaryen family drama is in full swing. After Aegon’s death, Aenys took the throne, but things quickly went south. Aenys wasn’t exactly a strong leader, and it didn’t take long before the Faith rose up against him. That’s when Maegor stepped in—furious and out for blood after the murder of Eleana. He crushed the rebellion with an iron fist. When Aenys died under some pretty shady circumstances, Maegor took over as king. But even though he was ruthless, the Faith remained a thorn in his side right up until his own brutal end in 48 A.L. Now, the story kicks off in 56 A.L., and the Targaryens are still in hot water. Jaehaerys, Aenys’s son, is holding down the fort as regent for his young cousin Vaegyl, Maegor’s son. The realm is a mess, full of uprisings and political scheming. Jaehaerys and his allies, like Gerold Westerling, are doing their best to keep the peace, but they don’t realize that Westerling and Ser Tybolt Lannister have their own plans. They’re secretly plotting to put Westerling’s grandson, Aegon, on the throne. As Vaegyl gets closer to coming of age, things start heating up. Old loyalties are questioned, hidden secrets come to light, and the shadow of Maegor’s brutal reign still hangs over everything. The fight for the Iron Throne is just beginning, and it’s going to get messy. If you’re into stories packed with power struggles, betrayals, and the Targaryens fighting for control of the Seven Kingdoms, Scions of the Cruel King is right up your alley.

Lord of The Bleeding Tower

And what if madness were the only sanity? In Lord of The Bleeding Tower, reality is a plague that bleeds Entropy — and Kaelen Vance is its embodied paradox: the patient zero of a conceptual virus that rewrites existence itself, and simultaneously the only desperate vaccine of a collapsing cosmos. The Tower is not a place — it's a symptom. Its countless Strata are fever dreams, its laws are lucid nightmares where the impossible is routine. Here, the narrative itself is diseased, chapters are contagions, and you, dear reader, are next to be diagnosed. Forget stories that are merely read. This is a condition to be contracted — a journey through the epidemiological horror of consciousness itself. The question is not whether you'll understand. It's whether your mind will survive the revelation. Do you dare be infected?

Hope Amon enjoys this "heavy fatherly love." Second day: Received a recruitment offer from the Aurora Order.

Had a "family reunion" with Old Man Pallez and turned down Leonard's enthusiastic suggestion for the old geezer to move in with me. After all, I don't fancy being nagged by an elder every time I need to use the restroom. Fourth day: Told Klein I was preparing to pray to a deity named "The Fool." Watched his pupils practically earthquake and thoughtfully asked if he needed some eye drops. Fifth day: Listened to Medici give a two-hour comedic monologue (like a stand-up routine).

Prey Amongst Predators

On the brink of death, Sol had expected nothing more than eternal peace from his lifelong suffering. But instead, fate dealt him an unexpected hand. The Melvires, a renowned family, rescued him that night, and his fate was rewritten. A man who called himself his father, along with the four sons who bore no resemblance to him, offered a life so far removed from his own, it felt like fiction. Ever since then, he had done everything in his power to make himself worthy of the life they gave him. Yet even as the years passed, some truths remained hard to ignore. The Melvires carried themselves with an elegance that seemed inborn, an air of distinction no effort could replicate. No matter how hard he tried, Sol always felt like an outsider trailing behind them–grateful, but never equal. Nevertheless, he dedicated himself to their service, believing loyalty was the least he could offer in return. But everything shattered the night he turned twenty when the veil was lifted. The Melvires finally revealed the sharp claws hidden behind their velvet gloves. Sol was nothing more than a sacrifice. The crown of their design. He fought hard to escape their reign of terror, but the more he resisted, the steeper the slope became. Every path forward was walled in inevitability. His spirit waned beneath the weight of isolation and betrayal, until all that remained was resignation. Perhaps this was simply the closing of a circle. If his life was the price for everything he had been given, then so be it. He opened his arms, ready to embrace death again, just as he had all those years ago. But what was with their sudden change in attitude? Why, after all the pain they had inflicted, did they now seem… wounded?
