I look forward to writing with you as well. My initial take on the relationship with Lord Radford and Lady Antoinette is that the Young Hawk resents her presence. He is slow to warm to her if at all. He will appear immature to her. He will remain respectful, but treat her as he would treat any noble woman from a neighboring house. He will not view her as his mother No one can replace his real mother in his eyes. Their's will be a cool/cold relationship; at least from his point of view.

Cedric accepts Lady Antoinette as the wife of his mentor (?) What would you call the foster parent of a ward in this sense? Mentor? Foster parent? Cedric believes the presence of this young noble woman has made Rennault much happier. There is a bounce in his step that he does not recall before she came to Ash Falls. Cedric is appreciative of her presence.

I should be able to post in the IC tomorrow.

@Gunther

Oh, my goodness. I was not ignoring you, I swear! This must’ve got smothered in all the other notifications I had.

But anyways, I am all for those relations between our characters because they do make sense. lol

Apologies for the long wait. :(

[Hannibal]

Everything is looking great guys, thank you. A question for everyone, do we wanna follow the books according to the books, tweak it some or have an entirely different sequence of events?

@Hannibal

I think it’d be best to follow some elements from the books but tweak things slightly with our own events. :) Make sense? lol

@Hannibal

I've been thinking about this ever since I first saw your idea. As an avid reader and fan, I have no problem following the storyline of Clash of Kings. In fact, I chose Erena Glover of the Deepwood Motte simply because she is abducted by the Greyjoys and placed in a dungeon somewhere in the Iron Islands.

I am also game to running off on our own timeline, but I cannot help myself to think what is going on in the story as we write in the IC.

I hope to have something up today.

[LordLinguinie]

I think making it our own will be the best, because if we just follow what we know happened in the books then there will be no surprises.

@LordLinguinie

Of course there will be surprises. But we can set up scenes based on events that occur in the book. We are obviously writing a story separate from what George R. R. Martin has written. The story we write is what Martin did not write. That is where the surprises are hidden. Imagination based on a canon story line is a perfect setting.

[Apoalo]

I like the idea that we can change small things and make our own story yet still keep to the overall lore that has been established. So long as everyone agrees with the various changes we make!

Also posted finally!

[Hannibal]

Any changes anyone would like to see, please post so we can build on it. @Gunther I have some wheels turning about Radford's love interest, nothing concrete yet. I will try to get something up by tomorrow to move us along but no promises folks.

[LordLinguinie]

One big change I'd like to see, Robert's assassins succeeded and killed Dany early on. I think having her dragons escape and be wild beasts or having them slain with their mother are both viable options. It changes the narrative without heavily impacting Westeros at this point.

@Apoalo

I agree 100%. I don't want to change Martin's Lore.

[Emma]

I want Danny as queen sooo...

@Emma

I agree with you. :)

I'll have my second post up by tomorrow. Just FYI my next post most likely will be shorter then my first. Thankfully this is a casual RP not advanced. I know some people (including myself) get overwhelmed or feel the need to match post length but it quality over quantity. And I'm in this RP for the fun and creativity. I just wanted to get this out there. Since I tend to quit RPs if I feel stressed to post lengthily stuff.

[Apoalo]

My opening posts are always long. But they taper off as well.

[Hannibal]

Don't worry about length guys. If it conveys the point then it's fine with me. My next post will be longer to accommodate everyone breaking thier fast together and a big ball drop. But again please don't feel as if you guys have to write a lot. We're here to have fun and to create a good read. I wanna to see everyone stay and react to some curveballs I'm gonna throw.

[Silent Whispers]

I generally write a lot anyway but don’t want anyone to feel the need to match my length or anything.

[Gunther]

Darn, I thought this was an advanced thread. ;)

I'm actually pretty laid back, but length is less important than the written message.

[Hannibal]

What are your guy's thoughts on Stannis burning Renly, instead of flat our killing him.
