I love this - Aeron's tempting thoughts at the end, the look at the dynamic between the brothers, and the look at Aeron's drowning. I've always wanted to see a fanon look at the man he was before his conversion.

Thank you! I really enjoyed your take on a similar prompt too. These two are a lot of fun to play with :)

[sternflammenden]

They definitely are. I was so happy to see this fic for that reason - the whole situation has always interested me.

Oh dear. What a great fic! Love how you picked on a detail that always intrigued me. Aeron's chapters are daunting and complex in the books, and I feel that you perfectly rendered that. Deep, well-crafted stuff!

Thank you! I spent ages reviewing Aeron's chapters before I wrote this, so it's gratifying to hear you say that. Thanks for commenting :)

Thank you!

Great fic. Aeron doesn't have too many fics, so every fill is welcome.

Euron is creepy.

I wonder what would a kraken vs. dragon fight look like? Sooner or later we should see a kraken in the books.

Thank you for the prompt :) I enjoyed writing it.

This is atmospheric and creepy and a perfect piece of backstory for the Iron Isles.
