Author's Note: I don't really like the format on fanfiction DOT net. I much prefer to post on tumblr or Archive of Our Own. I like to include graphics with my stories, and fanfiction DOT net doesn't allow that. However, a user is stealing from me and posting my stories here as her own work. In the hope of trying to prevent her from doing that, I'm posting here. However, I encourage you to check me out at one of those other places, where the formatting looks nicer and there are pretty pictures!

"The brightest flame casts the darkest shadow."

Tywin was our sun.

He rose. Inevitably. In all his golden glory.

He carried us, this son of Lannister. High into the heavens, where dragons flew. Because of me. Because I would accept nothing less. Because he loved me.

I made him my husband.

Let us speak of the dawn of days, when our sun was rising.

Before we knew that a rising sun must fall just as far.

Before the great lions of the western hills were slain.
