Everness on Timeness English Version

Geats_Ace
In a world sustained by a sacred tree known as Everness, life and destruction exist side by side. The world of Orleans encompasses two opposing realities. The Overworld, where life flourishes and civilizations prosper, and the Underworld, a realm consumed by chaos, where darkness and destruction lurk around every corner. The two realities remain separated, preserved by a delicate balance that ensures the world's continued existence. But what happens when that balance begins to falter? Infori Atziluth is nothing more than an ordinary artifact merchant who runs the shop inherited from his father. To him, life is little more than buying and selling, all in pursuit of profit. He has no grand ambitions to change the world, let alone become involved in conflicts far beyond his reach. That is, until he discovers that a dagger he has kept in his shop for years is actually one of the legendary artifacts sought after by two factions, each with motives unknown to him. From that moment on, Infori's life is never quite the same. What begins with a single discovery draws him into a journey that gradually unravels the secrets behind the artifact, confronts him with a fate he never imagined, and brings him ever closer to something far greater than himself. In a world where life and destruction stand on opposite sides of the same boundary, is fate something to be accepted, or something we have the right to choose? For Infori, this journey is not simply about finding answers. It is a story about choosing his own path in life.

Heir of the Sundered Crown

Jaehaerys raised his chin, undaunted. This man couldn't harm him, he reminded himself, that's why he brought Prince Viserys to the capital in the first place. "I am the Crown Prince of the Seven Kingdoms. A dragon. You are nothing more than a fool who befriended one," Jaehaerys replied, having prepared that line in advance. It had the desired effect. The Small Council members turned to look at Connington. The man trembled with rage, balling his fists. Strangely, he reminded Jae of Viserys. "And if I don't?" he asked. "If you don't, Lord Baratheon will take this tale back home. Ser Jaime will wonder out loud every chance he gets why our Lord Regent was so unwilling to protect the Crown Prince though he'd been aware of his mistreatment the entire time. Soon enough, the entire realm will know." Jaehaerys tilted his head. "And I wonder how my family in the North will feel about that." "Not to mention the common people, when they hear an up-jumped minor Lord, my bannerman no less, dared to harm a Prince of the Blood. They remember the only reason you're in power is because you took advantage of the chaos at the end of the Rebellion," Lord Stannis seconded Jaehaerys, the large man and the little boy glaring at the Lord Regent in unison. His face grew so red, it matched his hair. Jaehaerys feared his head might explode. In the end, Lord vary broke the silence when he said, "Perhaps the Prince's suggestion is sound. Prince Viserys should be sent to Dragonstone. Out of sight and out of mind, as they say." Finally, Connington gave a nod. So slight, one could doubt he agreed at all. "But Daenerys stays," Jaehaerys pushed on. "I won't have her at Dragonstone where Viserys can torment her." "Fine!" Connington said, "Now, begone." "You don't order the Crown Prince around, fool!" Stannis protested. "That's quite alright, Lord Baratheon," he said, looking up at him with a small smile. "I was leaving anyway." Thank you for reading!
