If the protagonist weren’t Tywin, Aegor would have thought he was hearing the story of another transmigrator. Without the interference of a foolish daughter and a contemptible sister, these two L...

The Stark soldiers “arresting” their own lady dashed past them like a gust of wind. This felt so out of place to Nina that she almost forgot ...
"Aegor!" Nina's voice barely concealed her surprise as she turned, but her formal greeting was cut short when he strode forward with a broad smile, wrapping her in a bear hug before planting a kiss...

Aegor had originally planned to wait until Maester Aemon’s ashes had cooled enough to be gathered before proceeding, but it would take at least another ten minutes ...
Aegor stared at the blazing pyre, his thoughts drifting.
The fact that Cotter Pyke had remained at Castle Black surprised him. On the bright side, it meant the shipments of grain from across...
“Out with the old, in with the new?”
The Maester of Castle Black lay serenely on his funeral pyre, his peaceful expression suggesting he felt no pain when he passed. Aegor, the newly ele...
