I really do think Theon saw a lot of Robb in Sansa — saw a way to atone for betraying Robb by giving his loyalty to Sansa.

contemplating adding the lyrics but I haven’t decided yet

The End Start of the Song

Rhaegar and Lyanna in The End of the Song (1902) by Edmund Blair Leighton

I left it in draft for over a year, but here it is! I like how Rhaegar and Lyanna's stories play with chivalric romance tropes so editing this painting of Tristan and Isolde seemed like the perfect fit.

Excerpt From: A Storm of Swords, GRRM

Different Roads: The House of Black and White

At the top she found a set of carved wooden doors twelve feet high. The left-hand door was made of weirwood pale as bone, the right of gleaming ebony. In their center was a carved moon face; ebony on the weirwood side, weirwood on the ebony. The look of it reminded her somehow of the heart tree in the godswood at Winterfell. The doors are watching me, she thought. She pushed upon both doors at once with the flat of her gloved hands, but neither one would budge. Locked and barred. "Let me in, you stupid," she said. "I crossed the narrow sea." She made a fist and pounded. "Jaqen told me to come. I have the iron coin." She pulled it from her pouch and held it up. "See? Valar morghulis." The doors made no reply, except to open. ❦ Arya I, A Feast for Crows

.ೃ࿐ “I will hear you say it. She was Elia of Dorne.”

The Mountain snorted contemptuously, and came on . . . and in that moment, the sun broke through the low clouds that had hidden the sky since dawn.

The sun of Dorne, Tyrion told himself.
