Chapter 51: Interludes III
'Some of the most persistent myths surrounding the Ruby Order are the tales about the monsters they fought in their home - the creatures of Grimm, or, colloquially, the Grimm. Descriptions of those creatures vary, though all are said to share the common characteristic...

Sokar's Palace, Delmak, Sokar's Realm, January 11th, 2002 (Earth Time)
Catra watched the projection on her HUD as the alerts went off. The red dots marking guards started to pour out of the guardrooms. "Faster than Horde soldiers during an attack," she...
Chapter 50: The Assassin
‘Reports about the Ruby Order’s visit to Dragonstone remain scarce. The local records unfortunately were lost, likely during the Dragon Breeding, and the surviving records in the Citadel’s archives and the Red Keep’s Hall of Records were, sadly, rather scant on actual...

Sokar's Palace, Delmak, Sokar's Realm, January 11th, 2002 (Earth Time)
Jack O'Neill knew that he was covered in an illusion - basically invisible. He had worked with Melog often enough by now. Still, he couldn't help tense up as he approached the Palace...
Well, on one hand, there's "cool motive, still murder". On the other hand, the law isn't a suicide pact. So, it's not exactly an easy or clear decision. But for RWBY, it's about upholding the rules since, in their view, and quite correctly, Westeros goes by "the King/the Lord is the law", and...
Chapter 49: The Sailor
‘While many scholars consider Lord Tywin Lannister’s death a turning point in the history of Westeros - some even going as far as to consider it the defining moment of the Succession, which, as any historian with a modicum of knowledge and intellectual honesty, is...

Delmak System, Sokar's Realm, January 11th, 2002 (Earth Time)
They had two days for the mission. That’s how long Apophis’s fleet would take to reach the system. Two days to find and take out Sokar. And just a bit less than two days until the Alliance task...
Well, Tyrion can now prove everyone wrong and save his family (and himself)!
Tywin's greatest weakness was his pride. He could never let any slight, no matter how small, go. And he couldn't admit having made a mistake, either, imho.
Drowning, or other ways.
Chapter 48: The Kinslayer
‘For a scholar, it's often very discouraging to see how many laypeople have romanticised or even utterly wrong notions about the past based on myth and mummers’ tales. While they are perfectly aware that their own customs are not as binding as some might claim, and...
Chapter 214: A Brand New Year Part 4
Alliance Headquarters, Brussels, Belgium, Earth, January 1st, 2002
“I am still surprised you two finally admitted your feelings.”
Daniel was her friend, Samantha Carter reminded herself. She wouldn’t snap at her friends even though their - well-meaning, to...
People with such powers as they have tend to split up some religious communities.
Yeah. They haven't gone on a killing spree.
Yeah. If the Westerosi nobles were more reckless/cruel/stupid, that could have happened.
Chapter 47: Lines Crossed
‘Some scholars attribute the impact the Succession left on the realm to the Ruby Order, and one cannot ignore the fact that their presence shaped the Seven Kingdoms for decades to come, politically as well as culturally. However, one also must not underestimate the...
Catra would, of course, insist that Adora was perfect and no one would go for herself instead - she's got it bad (and has some self-esteem issues)
Catra: How did we let one of those people into the Alliance?
Glimmer: How do you think we could deny them if we let you and Hordak in?
