THE CIVIL WAR UPDATE PT. 1

The war rages on in the North as the forces of the Little King, his name destined to be wiped from the history, continue their chaos, they have experienced push back from communities of people from the East who have banded together to join the efforts to protect White Harbour and have started their own search parties hoping to locate Manal II Manderly.

The King's Party ( King Owen Stark and Prince Cregan Stark, Lord Commander of the Night's Watch, Yuan Anya and Cassana Stark)

King Owen Stark and his brother @crreganstark are travelling to the wall where they will crush the rebelling watchmen where the King intends to leave his brother with the task of protecting the Northern Front from wildlings and providing support to @wintervsuns (Lord Brandon Karstark). As the brothers travel Owen has started using their nights at camp to teach Cregan about warging into creatures, starting with teaching him to warg into his wolf and control it. Between practicing with Cregan, Owen has taken to sitting in his tent before sleep and warging into the Smoke and leading wolves into an Umber camp where the commander of the camp is ripped apart by wolves. Tales of the Warg King are spreading across the North as more animals have started to attack people on the roads. Owen hopes to warg into a bear soon, a bear he's been trying to attach to since spotting in while in Smoke. Cregan is taking well to his training and has become a great help to Owen. They never break the rules of warg or skinchanging: no feasting on human flesh, no mating, and no taking over the body of a man or woman.

Princess @cassvstark continues to lead her group of female archers. she is staying close to her brother's side, relaying all information from her visions to him no matter how small it might seem. However she is starting to pick up on some dangerous rumors coming down from the Umber forces but needs to verify them before speaking with Owen.

Lady @anya-snow has capitalized on the yitish relation and soldiers from the regions of Wan and Shizi have travelled to the westerosi kingdom of the north in the past weeks. The forces under Owen have grown, with a troop of 1000 yitish soldiers arriving. The blacksmith, for her part, has supplied the Night's Watch with weaponry and has been travelling across camps with a team of smiths to reforge and fix blades for the army of the true north.

House Manderly

Lord @amirofmanderlys made the difficult choice of continuing on with his journey to Skagos after providing much needed assistance to Brandon Karstark through a restock of supplies and support before continuing to Skagos where he will be for some time. Owen has sent word to their YiTish allies who will meet Amir at Skagos.

Duke @nasirofmanderlys is leading the charge of taking down the forces of the Little King as he tracks the man in hopes of securing his sister and bringing her home. The people of the East who has been welcomed into White Harbour have ventured out to joke Nasir. Tirius Rowan has sent 500 volunteers to White Harbour for an attack on one Old Way family is an attack on them all and as word reached Goldengrove the Marshall of the Northmarch sought out volunteers who wished to travel North before going to Alayim.

House Karstark

Duke Brandon Karstark has been hit hard, his home lands surrounded and his wife @northernseer believed to be dead needs to be buried. Unknown to the King, Meera appears to be alive. Brandon has been intensely defending the borders of his land with help from Amir Manderly's resources. The YiTish arrive to provide assistance to the Duke per the agreement between the North and the YiTish.

The Stark in Winterfell

Queen @rosaaaryn continues to be the Stark in Winterfell. She is doing her best to help take in any known loyal women and children who need shelter if umber forces are over taking their lands. She is writing correspondences between various lords and ladies to try and help pass information along if she can.

The Military Commanders

Prince @adam-stark and lord @jin-renshu have continued to lead the berserkers to raze Umber forces. A warning had already been given so no men is left alive. Adam has made an example of every commanding officer and treacherous lord that falls on the battle, beheading them and leaving their headless corpses hanging from trees as continuous retaliation for the murder of the young prince, Jon.

The Loyal Bolton:

Princess Consort @northernglorie (Glorie Bolton) [updates in part 2]

Magics of the North

Princess @allysannestark has travel with a party to her lands where she has provided the support of a Stark presence along with her skill in regards to the North and it's many plants. She has started to seek other means to provide support to the Northmen in their battles. [Further Updates in Part 2]

The Western Front

Ren left the legion after a bit, as sea dragon point has been turned into a refugee area. The new ruling lord has been granting food and shelter for those that come to his land.

Duke @xavariglover has left men to protect their Western Front by land and sea, he is aware that any word of Manal Manderly requires forces to be sent. She is of priority along with tracking and keeping the rebellious Mountain Clans in check as they terrorize the Western lands of the North. [ Further Updates in part 2 ]

Final Note

The North will be forever changed by the choices of the Little King and his choice to target the people of the Old Way with such ferocity. As the war rages on, people have started to defect from the Little King, a steady bleeding of Northmen after the acts against the Old Way. To stop this bleeding support traitors are being killed by the Little King and his commanders.

The Hugors, some call the people taking a personal touch in attacking the camps of the traitors to the North, have started to poison the water barrels of Umber forces, steal their food, and kill them in the night. These are acts carried around by rumor residents of White Harbour though others whisper it is the worshippers from the east where men are more use to such treatment and have made it a point to fight back and show appreciation to their hosts. And the daughter who welcomed them, different as they are. [Further Updates in part 2]

(ooc: i think that in a place where there are many gods there would also be people who fight and if the rhllorist of the east are attacking Alayim then the Braavosi calling White Harbour home aren't strangers to intolerance.).

DURING THE TIME SKIP; Following the return of the northern fighting forces from the iron war. // @northernseer

Lord Brandon Karstark, the Sun of Winter and the Hand of the King was wed to Lady Meera Reed within the Godswood at Winterfell. It was a private, intimate event; if not interrupted by the Sea Wolf entering and standing at the back of the gathering in the Godswood, a strange phantom. It was followed by a night of feasting and revelery, where the Northern court and their guests took the chance to bask in winter’s sun once - for they had made it out of the other side, again.

[danceofwhispers]

Dear Watchers, does anyone else seem to notice the way purple eyes light up around the Sun of Winter? The Lord of Karhold visited the Queen merely weeks before she married, and it seems she is already with child...her husband, the Lord of Blackhaven, even looks like the Karstark Lord.

"The Dragon cunt would have married the Frozen cunt if he thought leaving the North was worth it. He'd never leave and she's too busy pretending to be Queen. Love could save the day. See the two cunts get together and cunt it up. This Watcher heard and maybe even saw the Hand of the Wolf with the Dragon sit on his paw. I think they're both married to invisible nobodies. This Watcher believes in love let's hope the world burns when they finally fuck."

| @caetargaryen @wintervsuns @daeron-dondarrion @northernseer |

[anya-snow]

△ how does it feel knowing brandon is married to another?

△ 1/10

“I'm glad for him,” she replied with a warm smile crossing her lips. Once upon a time, the knowledge of this news might have stung a little, but not at present. Not when she was more certain of her place in the world and less hesitant about her worth. Brandon had helped her find some of that value in herself that Anya had struggled to see, and those building blocks kept falling into place even after their romance ended. All she could wish for a man like him was happiness, and happiness he was attaining at Lady Meera’s side. “Our paths diverted for a reason when they did and it makes me happy to know he found someone who matches his path”.

HOZIER & BEAR McCREARY — “BLOOD UPON THE SNOW”

To all things housed in her silence Nature offers a violence The bear that keeps to his own line The wolf that seeks always his own kind The world that hardens as the harsher winter holds

The Greenseers Three

Lady Meera Reed, Princess Cassana Stark, and Lady Alysana Ironsmith are three Northern women gifted with greensight. Greenseer is the title given to people who possess the magical ability to perceive future, past, or current events in dreams known as Green Dreams. Due to their abilities each of the three possess a unique and deeply saturated eye color. Meera’s eyes are a bright emerald hue, mirroring the Reed House colors, Cassana’s turn an inky black, giving the appearance that her pupils have taken over her entire eyes, and Alysana’s are a rich teal that resemble the crystal clear sea.

[ivar-greyjoy]

TRUTH SERUM: It's time to make the 8! What one person would you bed from all the different regions of Westeros?

A low chuckle escaped the lord at such a question. He wasn't one to brag about his hedonistic and sexual proclivities, but in all likelihood, he may have already ‘made the eight’. “I shall omit my homeland. Knowing my father, there's a likelihood for more than half of the Ironborn to be siblings of mine,” Ivar said with a wolfish grin and laughed. "I'd say Lyana Lynderly, the dowager queen and Aliza Serrett," the Master of Ships mused as he considered those of the Vale, the Stormlands and the Westerlands. “For Dorne, it would be Naevia Qorgyle, for the North Meera Reed, the dragon princess for the Crownlands and Mara Bracken for the Riverlands,” he mused. The scheming Reach was left and he considered the option for a moment. He could admit to having a bit of a weakness for women who appeared like harmless roses but had their thorns ready to prickle him. That kept him on his toes. His mind went to the Redwyne Mistress of Ships, even to the treacherous half-Ironborn Mistress of Whispers, but he ended up saying “Serafina Merryweather or Dahlia Flowers would be my pick for the Reach".

( @snakeewoods, @argellabarathcon, @alizaserrett, @naeviaqorgyle, @northernseer, @caetargaryen, @marabrcken, @lucreziasredwyne , @serafinamerryweather & @dahliaflcwers )

[kingvmorra]

TRUTH SERUM: Casting aside any tensions or allegiances, what women of Westeros would you consider bedding?

“ alright now this is my kind of question!” morra smiled, leaning forward on the table. a night of drinking already had gearing up for a question like this. “the north…. would say meera reed. she’s got the vibes of a witchy woman but also she is just beautiful. following that sort of type i would also say ravella for the vale. riverlands are full of pretty redheads. but mara bracken is stunning. and i like her attitude.  for the stormlands i would say minisa tarth. daintier than my normal taste but i don’t mind…crownlands, hmmm. think lanna lefford goes for young ladies” she smiled wickedly. “i mean calla is also very beautiful. for my home i would say xyliana.… crownlands i would say laena. maybe that counts for the reach too? nahh...i would say the princess herself florence. outside of westeros? perhaps anya the blacksmith. maybe she can help me with my blades... dorne…would it be bad to say my cousins wife myriam? probably…then i will say joy manwoody. i like a woman who knows her way around a sword.” the ironborn king smiled. “i can keep going. trust me i have plenty more.”

the civil war update pt. 2

In this update for the civil war we continue to see the moving pieces of the North and efforts of the lords and ladies to protect their lands and their people, the efforts to keep North going. Owen knows that wisdoms have called for a long summer, his heart worries about the winter. Winter is always coming.

House Bolton

Princess Consort Glorie Bolton is currently in Winterfell handling matters of coin for the efforts against the umber cause. via raven she's sent for Bolton forces still loyal to her to join Stark factions at points where they're needed most along with sending smaller forces to aid the glover troops in Manal's recovery per his request. She is also handling the recovery of the iron banks repayment from the attack on the Manderly vessel. it is a matter that may require travel despite orders to remain in Winterfell, and she is prepared to do so. @northernglorie

The Hugors

The Formation of Seven worshipers has become a tale whispered among the people of White Harbor, hushed tones and quiet admiration for the strange men of the East who have taken the acts of the little King personally. Wearing black from head to toe, only their eyes are visible if one is lucky enough to see who brings them death. The Tales have reached the King of the North who has decided they are a special force and it will be written that they act on the orders of the Gods and their King.

The Hugors have taken to using the gorilla tactics often used by those of the Neck. Cloaking themselves in darkness they move through the black night of the North and poison water, seat food, and kill all they can reach in the camps without raising the alarm. They are leaving many camps sick, hungry, and bloodied.

The Warg King and Prince of the Night

King Owen Stark and his brother, @crreganstark, are establishing a hold as they fight their way to Castle Black. In THE BATTLE OF THE CAT the King was nowhere to be seen then his direwolf, Smoke, came charging in alongside Bandit, as the wolves took down horsed men, none noticed the King on the hill, his eyes rolled back as the great shadow cat descended on a Umber cousin, mauling him to death as the men around him ran.

"It's the corpse queen, risen again."

Meera Reed (@northernseer) has returned from the dead so say the rumors and with those rumors come whispers of the same sorcery used to trick Night's King in the Age of Heroes, that she will drain the life from Brandon Karstark ( @wintervsuns ) and make him twisted as that nameless King. As the Duke of Karhold protects his lands, his word is getting far more confusing.

who: @northernseer​ where: the apartments of the hand of the king, the castle of winterfell when: over the time skip

it had been a day following the conversation that indicated towards a genuine glimmer of hope for the north; a chance to look forward at what could be instead of focusing on the ways of old and the age-old threat of the winter that no doubt would always come for them, time and time again. since the dawn of time itself, the lands of the north had found themselves desperately trying to merely survive; survive the winter, survive the cold, and merely make it out of the other side alive. though it had served them well enough up until now, it had served them well enough whilst they wore crowns and whilst they did not, brandon understood the vision some of the other lords had developed - the want for the north to do more than just survive.

it was rash to break an alliance with the blacks of dragonstone, now the blacks of kings landing; considering for a decade it was them the north had bent the knee and bled for time and time again, proclaiming the rightful heir to the throne as the princess rhaenyra and her sired line. they had a shared history, had a firm respect for one another; or at least, that was what brandon of house karstark would need to ensure was understood. respect for one another did no longer consist of bending the knee, but to look within the eyes.

the man had already made the order for the servants within the karstark household to begin to pack his belongings for a trip to kings landing, a journey that would no doubt take him through the length of westeros; his nature and his history with the targaryen queen was being counted on to bring forth the most useful of terms. he would not believe it manipulative, nor attempting to hoodwink the woman out of something - but rather the stance the sun of winter took when it came to the northern pride, and what it meant to be northern.

upon walking into the main gathering hall of his apartments, almost expecting to see his brother laying strewn gnawing at some piece of meat, he had instead found the lady meera of house reed. his expression softened slightly as he looked upon her silhouette stood there, the winter sun shaping her from glass windows behind her - the woman had returned from greywater watch in good time, as had been promised in her letters. when he stepped forward, he saw a slight expression of irritation upon her features, and a look of hurt etched into her orbs.

"what's happened?" the man asked, oblivious to the fact it may be his presence needing to leave that could cause such a look upon her face - they had spoken of his duties, and how he could find himself travelling for short periods of time. the man crossed the room toward his betrothed, slipping his sword belt from his waist and setting it down upon the wooden oak surface, flickering warm grey orbs back over to her. in some steps, he had closed the distance between them, towering over her as a hand movement to gently cup her porcelain cheek; though she tried not to look at him.

"look at me lass. what reason is there to have such a frown on a face like yours, eh?"

[sarra-karstark]

FLEETWOOD MAC— “SISTERS OF THE MOON”

She was dark at the top of the stairs and she called to me And so I followed, as friends often do I cared not for love, nor money and I think she knew Well the people, they love her and still they are the most cruel She asked me, be my sister, sister, sister of the moon

( @cassvstark, @jessamynmanderly & @northernseer )

[cassvstark]

cassana stark awoke with a gasp, sitting up from where she lay. this was not where she had fallen asleep. she was supposed to be back in the small village the rangers had stopped over in. she had been lucky enough to get one of the rooms in the inn. sleep had come to her quick when she rested her head down on the pillow. 

but now she was in the middle of a snow-covered forest. looking down at herself she noticed she was not wearing the clothes she had fallen asleep in. instead it looked like some sort of dress made for the summer months. the white linen dress was no dress for the snow and cold weather. in fact, she was not even wearing any sort of shoes either. panic set in for a brief moment before she realized that she was not cold, the snow under her feet felt like nothing at all.

this was a dream. a vision.

standing up, she brushed the snow off of her as she looked around at her surroundings. trees went on for miles it seemed like. dense forests of green and white everywhere she could look. it was best to follow her instinct in a time like this. walking through the trees it felt like she knew exactly where she was. like a hunter following a trail to their prize, she followed the path. 

around one bend of the trees she first saw the first signs of any sort of movement. something deep within her told her to call out to it.

“hello? is someone else there?”
