The Tales of the Secret Keeper

Summary:

What if Martyn had died instead of Ren in Third Life episode 4? What if Lizzie took Pearl's place in Double Life and Limited Life? What if the villains won every season?

Come along for the ride, as the Secret Keeper reveals their ultimate secret - alternate realities.

Notes:

This is basically What If but for the Life series. I hope you all enjoy! It's my first ever fic I've written, so please be kind.

Chapter 1: Introduction - The Notspace

Chapter Text

...

What? Who goes there?

Ah, so you are the ones I was told about. The ones who wish to hear my tales. Good. I was wondering when you would show up.

I am the Secret Keeper, and I act both as storyteller to the Watchers and Listeners and as occasional taskmaster in the Watchers' games. But of course, you knew that.

I sense you are bored of rewatching the games as they are. That is fair. Watching the same thing over and over can get dull, I hear. But you see, this is my greatest secret of all.

I have no such issue.

I am a being of multiversal existence.

I see all realities, all timelines, any and every way anything can happen. Some are sad, others vicious, and some are so incredibly ridiculous they are laughable.

Come with me. Witness just a few of them, and I promise it will entertain you for years.

What if the Red King had been usurped by the Hand? What if the Fae Queen had taken the Scarlet Killer's place in the tied and fourth games? What if the man with a moustache had joined the Northern alliance? These are just some of the stories we will be looking at. By the end, you will see just how one small change can make every difference.

So come, and listen to the tales of the Secret Keeper.
