Chapter 25 of BD is out for Squires + Shadow's Portrait
🕑 Added 2026-01-06 10:54:15 +0000 UTCI found a decent artist and commissioned a piece instead of using Midjourney, and here's the result.
As for the chapter... it was hard to write, an actual tangle. I changed my plan for it five times in the process of writing, and quite some rewriting was done. I'm not happy enough with how it came, but I've delayed enough. The second half isn't quite as well edited as I'd like, but it'll do for now.
Anyway, without further ado, chapter 25:

Jon can't get an audience with the king, so he gets dragged in front of him for murder instead? Typical Jon Snow luck. Thanks for a great chapter as usual.

Lol...Darcia's wolf form made the crossover from Wolf's Rain...

My bet is that it is the party responsible for other murders and wildfire explosion. They are probably trying to eliminate anyone who could mess with their plans and royal Targaryens are a central part of their plot, whatever it is. Since he looks Targaryen, has some relation to Bloodraven and is trying to reach the king, he needs to disappear.

Have a feeling Rhaella tried to have jon killed after the owl stunt...

Good chapter , I don’t get why someone should want them dead even if they believe is bloodraven son Even if they saw him buy swords and think they are rich Make no sense especially when they have gold cloaks involved Anyways just make no sense

Great chapter like always bro! I wonder who sent the men and gold cloaks to kill Jon and them. The artist that did Shadow’s portrait did a great job! Exactly how I imagined he would look like. Bro you’re killing me with the suspense, can’t wait for Jon and Rhaella to finally meet lmao.

Thank you, and man, I was liking Bark. I was hoping he would stay around. I am curious to see how things play out with the Gold Cloaks. Great job, and I can't wait for the meeting between Jon and Rhaella.
