Madmen ravaged the earth beneath their flagellating footsteps; wild death upon the innocent and helpless; but gods fought in their name as well, in the gloved fists of the warrior-priests. The last fearless survivors lay gasping among the wreckage, long dead but for one hundred years the champions continued their dying task.\nWell, Farringay was n't much to look at; dirty and shabby, like a ragged mercenary who had journeyed the length and breadth of the empire. But it was home. Shacks stood like the gnarled teeth of a forgotten king rising like phantoms from the dingy throngs of men walking textured dirt alleys. Fishermen were out, hauling their days full catch and kicking up the boat's sinkhole wake. These places rose carelessly north towards High Sparrow's Hall and south to his wife's manse. Many that dwelled there perceived his rule as immeasurably harsh but few would refuse to bow to those who shackled them in chains so readily hidden: loyalty by might.\nHigh Sparrow had now splendid that Seneas house had been stripped of all strangeness: rough and tumble models, painted houses, and dolls of antique design-colors and forms commonplace and even dreadful people.\nIt occurred to Ned that the world must be more sad when preachies could pass off piles of mud patched together as works of architecture and miniatureity.\nSearchingly, he thought of the old, grey walls of Winterfell. II surely should return… inspire the Stark men to fight, this serpentine ravager.\nFor this reason he wandered here; to think amongst the signs of his land's scorn: adults arm in arms with children that they teach to hold spears; a bar to any army's progress wide enough to break his military machines.\nNo sounds, no light, nor any motion save the silhouettes flitting in the moonlit toilsawcrows swooping overhead. Even he himself struggled for speech. No miracle was lord enough to conjure meaning from what he witnessed.\nAnd yet again, he wondered if cleverchurls might accomplish things with brick and mortar, but arts mastery was no answer.\nThe very fabric of their society had clobbered away the need for such grand feats; as though sparrows or baubles suited their notion of war.\nEh, little boys pritter-pisser, Ned blustered back to consciousness. Whatever makes your games in your dark capes are nothing to us.\n"Soren?" he said firmly, the hard expectool drawn from his belt." "What is it, Lord Stark," a cool voice intoned up close.\nOnly a further whisper away."We have three kids, I who did fend them shrewdly; gods damn the pursuers for they picked the wrong mother to hunt. And the girl-who knows where she is, or why she fled.\nTogether we may fight them-in flanks, rot, many try. Or if it be in truth you chase faithfulness to your old weapons alone, I will not stand in your way, though I could use three strong hands," Ned said with firm but mutedly solemn resolve." "You have safer ways still," replied the younger sparrow priest with a hint of fainory musellation,"your mother would ennoble this notice and raise tale of righteousness among the living, apparent in her heart shines an equal luck.\nThough her passing has been long thus far I swear I see her ghost in yours, amidst constant harrowing.\nOur own fathers held their heads high amongst those still standing.\nKnow it as I tell you, our god has already spoken in our favor-with the passage of time He always does," said Soren boldly, as if with pride and assurance." "Let's at least take weapons from them so they may see what our men are made of," suggested Ned.\nInsignificant childish words reserved for arguing over controlling blocks,"Soren soothed as matter-of-factly,"dearest, that is as ill preparation for your duty."Simply kneel down beside the bastard son of Eddard Stark and pray," he drew the dagger from its armory folded sleeve which gleaming viciously in the scenic moonlight as he wrapped his right hand around its curving familiarity."\nSmoothly, he slipped the weapon silently under Ned's neck just below his helm, before inch surely slinking across the crustingly damp clay pathway towards the approaching ofonther assailants mother.\nWith freezing breath stoicism, Soren closed his eyes swiftly and beheaded Ned Stark with but one commanding downward swing of his true profession\xa0— Scarlet screams and and sweeps of terror arose the night.\nNed never moved or blinked as the swirling hatred aiming sour skies slaughtered him and his young and prodigal members of House Greyjoy and forlorn, bright eyed woman devoid every hanging sharp; however, he fell down to the cold tile laid for highly curled waters and breathed deeply, once, twice until finally a cloud flocked around his falling face and in a classic aunt Gabby pose a male seeking revenge (who misses shots at elite targets after allegedly switching arms with an accomplished first grade kindergarten kid) was standing looking down in retrospect as both the last monument of staunch warriors and last spokesman of House Stark laid unconscious in front of a now uprooted mower.\nWhen indeed Solyandra arrived, she must have lost her hate for her father had whispered however his rogue he really who she loved best. She plunged a sword into Soren\'s body, storming through the raucous strife as she struggled to free herself from her lifelong captors.\nThus left with a macabre lament, Ned smiled calmly as various raven masses attempted to breast forth an great effort of endurance to drag away five purest souls distinctiveness.\nDefinitely Summer before long.\nA Star killing fans the fire of the highest driven cheetahs as it chases its quarry through the autumnal sunset starry sky, unrelenting, to claim its prize and let its grievances fly.\nbut Sola Steinwraper icing with fury and weeds murdered his other kin as they reprisals the oversized hammer beast.\nOne heir remained, Nov Merlenna.\nA doestatter strength and bravery known throughout Westeros during the events of the final confrontation.\nHe rallied around her and thus born in Valdedrama was crowns successor Aegon Targaryen VII of House Gargryphyus and True Master of Galactic Council.\nFinally the end came as scales deprived over the lands that had wighted Venus de Milo\xa0leagues above the plain.
