Unexpected Healing

No good dog would let their master see their weakness. It was that thought which decided Sandor's course when he saw the herbalist's shop, its one window still bright in the gloom. But, he gets more than he was looking for.

4. Chapter 4

Someone 'kindly', and publicly, pointed out on my dA page that GRRM does not like people using his characters or world in fanfic. I did some digging and his (not a) blog has an entry that is pretty clear about his views. )

While I disagree with some of his arguments, after much soul searching, I have decided to not continue this story and will take it down soon.

While I don't appreciate the negative and somewhat condescending comments about 'what is called fan fiction today' in GRRM's post, I feel I need to respect his request not to use his stuff. The master doesn't like others playing with his toys and I can't ignore that.

I wonder, however, where that leaves the 'real artists' who make a picture of a character or scenario that doesn't fit with the original author's view of things... Will they eventually get the same treatment, or is it ok because it's a different medium they use?

Anyways, thanks to everyone for reading as far as you did.
