    Summary

    The Song is sung, and the Dawn is won, but the victory is bittersweet, and the cost is too high. Yet there is little that could not be done with magic if you were willing to pay the price. Dues are paid, fates are changed, and even destiny itself is covered with a shroud. AU + Time travel. Or alternately:

    The Battle for the Dawn is won, but everyone Bran knew was dead, so he throws a tantrum of epic proportions and drags Bloodraven into tossing unsuspecting and just freshly killed Jon Snow back into the past by sacrificing themselves. Messing with time makes ripples in the timeline, and some things are not the same.

    Summary

    Welcome to Interregnum! This represents our attempt to write a Zahn-style continuation of his original trilogy, borrowing from material from the X-wing novels and comics (as well as the broader Legends continuity) to help flesh out plots. The main point of divergence from the original Legends chronology is Dark Empire: in this story, Palpatine was never cloned and died permanently in Return of the Jedi.

    Summary

    It is the forty-first millennium of Man, and the God-Emperor has rotted on his throne immobile for ten thousand years. A corpse-fire that burns for the sake of delaying the darkness of the warp from falling in full upon the Galaxy. The promise of a better future is long dead, and with enemies at all sides, mankind seems doomed to a slow and inevitable extinction.

    Then along comes a scrawny psyker, ready to be soul-bound and made into yet another Astropath, who knows all together far more than he should. About the nature of the warp, about long prehistory, about secrets that the Inquisition would burn planets to acquire or hide- and most especially, about his Thirteenth Son's potential revival.

    The Emperor doesn't hesitate to take advantage.
