I Wish You Were Right Here
Tumblr media
My second fic for @throneofglassmicrofics! @timesconvert chose the prompt for me again and I hope I did it justice.
Prompt: Wishing Well
Words: 696
TW: talk of death (murder), grieving, alcohol
Rowan stumbled into a clearing, the world spinning around him. The daylight already faded into the night, the horizon full of hues, orange, pink and purple blending together. They didn't have a clear end or beginning, they never did. Rowan had believed there wasn't an ending for him either, never would have thought he would have lost Lyria, his mate. His unborn child. It even hurt looking at the sky, knowing she would have found joy in the sunset, in the colors and changes, saying goodbye to the daylight and greeting the night. Lyria had found wonders in everything and it had felt so strange when he met her, because Rowan had been the exact opposite. Maybe that is why wyrd had paired them, intertwining their fates. Maybe it saw something that Rowan couldn't see, had thought that opposites attract. And against all odds, Rowan had learned to love, learned to imagine a future with her, worked for that future and then it was ripped from him. Lyria was killed and it felt like his world shattered.
It was very rare that Rowan went to bars, even rarer that he drank himself into oblivion but just this once he had hoped to numb the pain, forget about it for just a few hours. Of course he didn't, of course wyrd didn't allow him to forget his mate.
Angry, he kicked a stick out of his path, making him stumble once again but this time he couldn't grip something or find his balance in time, so he fell, eating dirt.
Cursing and panting, he heaved himself up on his knees and if it hadn't been for that, he would have never seen it. The wilderness had almost swallowed it, as if it wanted to hide it, as if it was a precious gem that had to be kept hidden. He didn't care. Standing up, not even bothering to swipe the dirt off his clothes, he walked towards the hidden object and when he was close enough…
It wasn't a hidden gem or a wonder of nature, it was just an old wishing well, overgrown by the wild forest all around it. Huffing, Rowan stalked to the edge of the well and looked down, into the blackness. Even his Fae senses couldn't sharpen his eyesight so much to see the bottom.
Maybe that darkness would swallow him, trapping him forever. A fitting punishment for him, for not being able to save his mate. For not arriving in time.
It was nonsense, of course it was, but nonetheless Rowan took a coin out of his pocket. He didn't check if it was gold or silver or copper, he didn't care. Everything was meaningless anyway, he didn't deserve anything.
“Show me the future, “ he slurred, throwing the coin in the well. He stared into the blackness, waiting for something.
Of course nothing happened, either because this was nonsense or because fate hadn't planned a future for him. He didn't care.
Groaning, he turned his back to the well and walked back to the clearing he stumbled into shortly before, letting himself plop on the ground. It was dangerous at night, but again, he didn't care.
His eyes scanned the sky, the stars that greeted him with nightfall, and the first constellation that he found was the stag, the lord of the north. He knew the legends, how the lord of the north guided the people of Terrasen home. How the stag itself had blessed Brannon Galathynius.
Rowan sighed, closing his eyes, expecting to be met by darkness. It was the opposite, it felt like he was staring directly into flames. They turned from an orange hue to blue, wildfire. And when the flames parted…
He was looking into a pair of turquoise eyes, the pupils circled by a ring of gold.
Not being able to stand the sight any longer and being overwhelmed by the desire to look into these eyes forever suddenly, he opened his own eyes.
Rowan wouldn't remember this anymore when he woke the next day, but his heart would and his heart, it would lead him to the glimpse of the future he was gifted with.

Ola Haraldsson - the main character. The soul of Nordland. Sindre Egron Bjornstad - the best friend of Ola (and something more). The soul of Forlann. Skjold Foss - the “step father” of Ola. The soul of Markedal. Hjarnar Jarte Harpolen - the “caregiver” of Ola. The soul of Gesseborg. Emil Einrun Bjornstad - the “step son” of Sindre, the soul of Einrun. Aud Estemir - the soul of Albern. Ingeborg Mette - the soul of Sviria. Marlon Marwari - the soul of Ostia. Oladele Kwambai - the soul of Abbanis. Mateusz Szklow - the soul of Kassia. Naguja Ankalin - the soul of Inaat.
Here’s what they look like and what their relationship is like. Green - friendship, love. Red - a damn bad relationship. Blue - relationships are complicated or change from bad to good or vice versa. If the connection between the characters is not indicated, then this is a neutral-friendly relationship. They can quarrel, they can enter into alliances, but in general they treat each other well.

Eddard Stark, Warden of the North
Long stern face, beard going grey (making him look older than he is), lots of greys and whites and direwolves. I am aware of the show criticisms about the shoulder pelts, I know. BUT, sometimes things are about how cool/iconic they look when it comes to fantasy fashion design especially. Besides fur coats and rich people in general wore fur over their shoulders all the time. From ermine mantles to fox-scarves, it existed, you’re just gonna have to let me have this.

Since it goes unmentioned unless you live here, I'm gonna be the one to bring attention to this;
The UK House Of Commons has passed the Troubles Legacy Bill
What does this mean? "It would stop new Troubles-era cases and inquests from starting, and offer a conditional amnesty to those accused of killings. If implemented, the law would apply to former members of the security forces and to ex-paramilitaries"
Ie; the UK government has just passed a bill that prevents victims of the Troubles from bringing former British soldiers and paramilitary members to court over murdering innocents. All under the guise of 'drawing a line under the events of the past'.
The only ones really for this bill are, naturally, veterans groups. I cannot stress enough that all the major political parties of Northern Ireland are against this bill.
The Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister) has also stated the Irish attorney general is preparing advice on whether the case could be taken to the European Court of Human Rights.
It's a slap in the face to everyone here, to the friends and families of those wrongfully killed.

When Jon comes back to life and gains a "ghost" moniker to match with Arya, so we get the "Ghost of Harrenhal" leading in Harrenhal and the "Ghost of the North" leading in the North

TENTH LORD IN RAHU NAKSHATRAS
Thanks for your patience in waiting for the next part of the series - I'm glad you guys are interested. As always, recorded for my own benefit, published for yours. General disclaimer is in my bio. Credit to KRSchannel for inspiring this post.
Find your 10th lord here, and find your 10th lord’s nakshatra here.
The 10th house rules our life’s honor. It represents the services we perform for society as well as the reputation we earn as a result. It is associated with the father and the career because traditionally, this is where both our standing in society and the role we performed in society would come from - inherited through the father’s family line. However, in our contemporary world, this isn’t always the case, which is why it’s important to know the grander themes at play.
The three Rahu-ruled nakshatras are Ardra, Swati, and Shatabhisha.
Rahu, or the North Node, is a non-planet object that represents our aspirations, our delusions, and our karmic trajectory. It is uncharted territory, where we are forced to experiment and step beyond our assigned role in life. Like its twin, the North Node is spiritually powerful, yet deceptive - but in this case, the deception lies in the allure of imagined possibilities. This is the dream of being a rockstar you have as a kid, and the fantasies of becoming a billionaire you have as a young adult. It is audacious, brash, impulsive and intoxicating. Hence, it both repulses, due to the fear of the fall from imagined heights, and attracts, for the glory it represents.
DO YOU HAVE YOUR 10TH LORD IN A RAHU-RULED NAKSHATRA? THAT MEANS YOU…
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Drew Barrymore, Amy Winehouse, and Megan Thee Stallion all have their tenth lords in Rahu ruled nakshatras. Drew's is in Ardra, Amy's is in Swati, and Megan's is in Shatabhisha.
… find engaging in public life will result in severity, intensity, and extremes.
This placement corresponds to magnetic public personalities and whirlwind professional lives that are constantly shifting. Those with Rahu-ruled 10th lords will find themselves constantly questioned or provoked as to whether they have earned their place, or rather whether they have a right to claim those earnings. They are likable and charismatic, but may not seem perfectly in place. Their unique character distinguishes them from the rest of the office or public, setting them apart regardless of whether they are actually all that different from their peers. At work and in public service, they find themselves compelled to address the elephant in the room, as in, sidling up and calling it by name and offering it a cigarette because how rude of everyone else to pretend it isn't even there. To be less metaphorical - these natives will point out what everyone's trying to ignore, and then demand everybody consider why they were trying to ignore it in the first place.
As for fame, Rahu is so empowered in this day and age, that its influence is very intimately correlated to fame. While this used to be much more short term fame, and still largely is, it is not quite as exclusively short term due to the power of the Rahu-ruled internet and media in the age of information. However, any long term fame is likely to be distinctly correlated to being a symbol of the Rahu age, rather than overall human history, at least if there is no or too little Sun energy to balance it out. The most potent of Rahu fame will also be distinctly tied to tragedy or scandal - especially in a way directly tied to the native's ascension to higher station or notoriety. This isn't a hard rule, but those with Rahu, Mercury, or malefic dominated charts should be very, very wary. This placement also guarantees a sort of cult status for famous natives. Fans of these individuals are more than just fans - they are devotees. And critics? Haters? They'll be just as brutal and harsh as fans are reverent.
MORE ON THE SPECIFICS OF ARDRA, SWATI, AND SHATABHISHA BELOW!

Nobody expects you to be a member of the profession you are.
Honesty, and directly addressing problems will solve your work problems and boost your public image.

Chaos follows wherever you go in public and in your profession.
When the public is in a crisis, you can maintain a cool head.

IF SWATI RULES THE TENTH LORD, YOU…

Are known for a popular but unique taste, or as a symbol of the the eclectic in the mainstream.
Procrastinate, cultivating a tendency to go wherever the wind takes you in regards to projects.

Aggression is poorly received by the public and does not come naturally to you in professional settings anyways.
You undergo sudden mental oscillations as a result of your relationship to public.
Legal troubles given public attention or settled in public spaces will typically go in your favor - depending on circumstances.
You worry about the boundary between private and public as it is easy for you to let this border dissolve, and it will impact you negatively if things get too mixed.
There is a delicacy to you in public that may not align with how you feel you are at your core or with how you present in private and domestic settings.
SWATI is the Self-Going Star. Industries and career types favored are those involving business, sport, breath, speech, bureaucracy, transport, software, service, flight, education, law, negotiation, sales, stock, trade, vocal and wind sourced music, and drugs.

Have a love-hate relationship with being given attention and thus have a reputation for being mysterious, reclusive, and closed off.
Act as a force for revolution, liberation, and justice in public.
Weather difficulties with grace, effort, and sincerity.
May use mystic symbolism and aesthetics to promote yourself.
Find intoxicants, indulgence, and corruption enabled in the field.
AND YOU MAY FIND…
There is always more going on beneath the surface and your dirty laundry inevitably is aired in public and exploited.
Great fame or recognition may be in your future, but you must be wary of fame giving way to infamy.
Distance and the ability to withdraw from the public is important for you to feel in control and still in possession of yourself.
You are extremely powerful particularly in the age of information, and you will find that virtual and media ventures are very profitable, or at least felt with extreme significance.
Counter culture, underground social scenes, and alternative movements appeal to you or there is a relationship of influence between them and you.
SHATABHISHA is the Hundred Stars. Industries and career types favored are those involving science, trends, innovation, mapping, medicine, intoxicants, art, fuel, exploration, investigation, research, music, clerical work, psychology, depths, waste, and organization.
HOPE THIS WAS HELPFUL. AMOUNT OF REQUESTS MEANS WE'RE GOING OUT OF ORDER, BUT WE WILL ABSOLUTELY RETURN TO THE OTHERS LATER. FEEL FREE TO MESSAGE WITH QUESTIONS, THOUGHTS, OR IDEAS. PART 5 WILL FOCUS ON SATURN-RULED 10TH LORD NAKSHATRAS NEXT! ♡
