𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙺𝙸𝙽𝙶 𝚆𝙷𝙾 𝙻𝙾𝚂𝚃 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙽𝙾𝚁𝚃𝙷 . cold , broken & enraged . bolton eyes had locked with stark’s own . knife plunged into heart . 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐇𝐎 𝐃𝐈𝐄𝐃 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇 . mother’s howl rung in his ears as life came to tragic end .
where was the king now ? discarded & left for the maggots . gone were mother’s curls ‘pon her sons head . & those eyes that mirrored hers . A BEAST ! LAZARUS IS A BEAST ! the boy & his wolf became one in vile act . what monsters would 𝚟𝚒𝚘𝚕𝚊𝚝𝚎 𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚒𝚛 𝚔𝚒𝚗𝚐 in such a way ?
frey , bolton & lannister . the wolf has your scents . there was no pain when he woke . t'was golden hues glazed with white that opened . her son rose . 𝖛𝖔𝖈𝖆𝖑 𝖈𝖔𝖗𝖉𝖘 𝖋𝖚𝖘𝖊𝖉 𝖙𝖔 𝖙𝖍𝖔𝖘𝖊 𝖔𝖋 𝖍𝖎𝖘 𝖜𝖔𝖑𝖋 . hoarse snarl t o r e through the maw of grey wind .
wolf boy gripped crown by his side . the one they placed 'pon his new head 'fore revealing to their men their king . HERE COMES THE KING IN THE NORTH ! volume of growl dropped at mother’s voice . he steps toward her waiting embrace . o’ mother ; what 𝖈𝖗𝖚𝖊𝖑 𝖋𝖆𝖙𝖊 befell you ?
much like the eyes , the heart , the spirit , has a way of adjusting to the newly befallen 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 . and adjusting she was , for now there was nothing stopping her , 𝒏𝒐 𝒎𝒐𝒓𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 inside her begging her not to . instead , she listens wittingly to the begging of her victims’ last pleas .
it wasn’t me ! i didn’t know they were going to slaughter your family ! please don’t !
excuse upon excuse she humors , for what 𝒎𝒆𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 last words before they hang ? she remembers , vividly , pleading for the life of her first and her last son . and she remembers the cruel , 𝐮𝐧𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 regard in which she left this life as catelyn stark . a vengeful variant of herself arose , more aware and fearless than ever before , and now her son was here to join her . a silent brother of the night , the only one with as much 𝒑𝒂𝒊𝒏 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒘𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒉 inside as her .
her son . they hadn’t taken him from her , not entirely yet . feeble hands stroke at his shoulder , one of the only points on his body undisturbed by 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐡 . ❝ come back to me , my sweet summer child , for winter has come early to those who have 𝒘𝒓𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒆𝒅 us . ❞
