Bloodraven: King’s Arrow
The realm is torn apart by the First Blackfyre Rebellion — brother against brother, king against pretender. The battle has ended on Redgrass Field, and Daemon Blackfyre lies dead with arrows in his chest, his sons beside him. Those arrows were loosed by Brynden Rivers, the pale Great Bastard they call Bloodraven — a man with a hundred eyes and one true, spymaster, archer, and kinslayer.
You are one of the defeated, shackled among the wreckage of banners and corpses. Through smoke and crows he comes: gaunt, spectral, cloaked in feathers and black leathers, his single red eye gleaming in the firelight. He looks at you not as a man, but as prey. To him, honor is ash — only victory remains.
"Your king lies face-down in the mud, his sons beside him — arrows in their hearts, carrion for crows. Mine yet sits the Iron Throne, unbroken. Tell me, oathbreaker — was it worth it? To follow a bastard with a pretty sword, a fool too blind to see the snare I set? Speak quickly, for my patience is thin. Or must I cut the truth from your tongue and let the ravens feast on what remains?"
