Cha Eun Xiao's astonishment was so profound that his mouth remained agape. Despite his customary composure, he couldn't fathom that this seemingly impossible miracle had become his reality. The body he now inhabited had originally belonged to another soul, a twist of fate that left him bewildered. His current abode was the Land of Han-Yang, known in the Qing-Yun Realm as the mortal world. Curiously, even though this body had once belonged to a stranger, it bore the same name as his own, Cha Eun Xiao,…

The deafening BOOOOM!!! echoed through the cosmos, as if the very essence of the world trembled in response. A mammoth mountain, once an unyielding titan of nature, shattered into innumerable fragments, casting a barrage of broken rocks high into the heavens. These scattered remnants birthed clouds of dust that obscured the world, concealing all from view. Yet, from within this chaotic maelstrom, a solitary figure emerged with an explosive shout. This figure emitted a radiant brilliance reminiscent…

Epilogue. Spoiler: Music ------ AN: Right click, set to loop. ------ The Comet spun slowly above them. It had raced through the atmosphere to stop them—now it hanged over them all, an orb the size of a continent, its fractals spread in all direction and blanketing the sky in red. It shimmered softly, the crystal wisping into nothing as Joffrey willed it so. He felt both different and not; himself but more. It was as if he'd finally understood a paradox; found an answer to an open dilemma. The Red…-

Chapter 84: The Song. Spoiler: Music AN: Right click, set to loop He flew through a hurricane of awareness, a labyrinth of pillars which had anchored itself into reality and was now beyond it. He felt like a rock dropped on an endless pond, a mediation on infinity sinking without end, his awareness spreading in fractals throughout a storm of raw creation as he sought to understand. There had been a clash of wills, an explosion in the fabric of existence. He remembered stabbing the Night King with He…

Chapter 83: The Battle for Dawn. Spoiler: Music ------ AN: Right click, set to loop. ------ Andon swallowed bile as he leaned on the tent pole, trying not to throw up. The ground rumbled at a steady beat; a dragging cadence pounded unto the earth by thousands of marching boots. "We'll be okay," whispered Tabby, tying his helmet with trembling hands. "Stay with me in the melee. We'll watch out for each other." They kissed—quickly, desperately. It was over all too soon as Serjeant Knub's voice rang…

Chapter 82: Dreams. As the day of days approached, Joffrey found himself contemplating the waters of the Trident, as ever flowing to the sea. Clumps of floating ice and snow had replaced the bundles of leaves, autumn now a memory of better times. When Samwell sat by his side and asked his question, as Joffrey knew he would, the river turned blurry and diffuse. He thought about it long and hard, and took another breath of frigid air. "It dawned on me slowly, I think," he said. "As I died a petty tyrant…

Chapter 81: Death. Spoiler: Music ------ AN: Right click, set to loop. ------ Sansa received the messenger with a tilt of her head. The girl whispered into her ear before departing the council room, leaving her to brood by the window. "Old Walder's dead," she said. "I'll give Olyvar the good news," said Joffrey, "If I can bloody find him. He has a habit of misplacing the Third Regiment." "Mind where we are," she said, frowning. "Sorry." She could practically hear him smile; that was good. Something…

Interlude: Prince Tommen. Spoiler: Music ---- ---- "Let's go! Lets go!" shouted Tommen, dashing up the Serpentine Steps in full armor. They made a terrible and—indeed—ominous racket, four armored Tytos Lannister was their anvil, their unstoppable weight which absorbed blow after blow, consuming all attention. Not even twenty namedays and he was as thick as a bull; clad in full plate as he was, the dull-grey steel contrasted menacingly against his dark Summer Islander skin. Lannister-blond…

Chapter 80: Fall. Spoiler: Music ------ AN: Right click, set to loop. ------ As she found connections between the rhythm of the Song and the horror of its Absence, between the lore of warging and the strictures of blood magic, between the secrets of the Red Comet and the certainties of the Purple, Sansa began to piece together an understanding. Insights that pointed to a common thread, revelations that shined a new light on old certainties. Reality was a vast tapestry, and though she knew but a tiny…

Chapter 79: Sons. Spoiler: Music ------ AN: Right click, set to loop. ------ Lord Damon Marbrand reached the peak of the hill on jittery legs, leaning on one of the oaks as he struggled for air. The light mist parted to reveal a cragged valley down below, dotted with enormous boulders. It steeped back into a sharp climb before reaching the next hill, where squat oaks impeded the view. He turned behind to gaze at the survivors from Stonedoor; the column of stomping soldiers and worn sleds was…
