Expect a big pivotal moment in the next chapter of 'Ineffable' - it will be Henrik's POV, and a line will be crossed.

What do you think Henriks opinion would be on the Greyjoys? I think you mentioned once that the Farmans and Greyjoys have a fragile alliance of sorts

@NathanPureSimp Oh, yeah, I’m definitely not super far in writing things out scene-by-scene yet, but I do have the big strokes of Henrik’s arc sorted. And since I’m combining more book-verse with show-verse (because I don't like how the show handled the ending for some characters), some elements are unfolding a bit differently. For one, I just really couldn’t justify Littlefinger handing Sansa over to the Boltons, as it doesn’t line up with his goals or his obsession, and Henrik’s storyline ties into that, too. So, Sansa and Theon wouldn’t cross paths, at least not in the same way. In Henrik’s mind, Theon is still the guy who betrayed the Starks and is part of the family that threatens his lands and people. But at the same time, Henrik isn’t a zealot about it, and he tries to judge people on merit and honour, so he defo could change his mind about individuals if they earn it. Lol, yeah, I'm not a fan of the Greyjoys either .

@DefectivelyFlawless No worry at all! And clearly you haven’t even gotten so far with the book so im aware you most likely don’t have everything planned out for it, but you think he have a “softer” opinion on Theon (or Reek at the time), considering how he saves Sansa? If he knew that of course. That is if that’s how your story goes. Personally im no fan of the Greyjoys haha()

@NathanPureSimp I think that, given that Henrik is the heir to a naval house on the west coast whose strength lies in the very area vulnerable to Ironborn aggression, he would likely view the Greyjoys as a standing threat. Fair Isle is basically a front-row centre to every Ironborn raiding route, and it may have been a shaky alliance in times when Robert was King and Balon's rebellion was crushed, but with Balon's death, it might cause trouble. On top of that, Henrik is very much a Westerlands guy, where he's polished and raised on chivalry and noble duty rather than pillage and paying the iron price. So he may acknowledge their courage on the waves, but he sees their culture as a stain on the sea they share. Sorry, that turned way longer than I meant it to, ahaha.

@intakeeee5 Henrik’s story is still tied to King’s Landing for now, but there’s every chance their paths might cross one day, especially with how I want Henrik's arc to go.

When do you think you will be able to update “ineffable” ? the story is really. I hope I did not sound like a whiner for updates

DefectivelyFlawless

@Heavenlyprince34 Hey, no worries at all. Things have been a bit hectic on my end, but I aim to post the next update in early June once work calms down.

Is it me or did you change a lot of things on Spellbound?

@DefectivelyFlawless I just had the impression that you had rewritten I thought chapter 1 was different

Hey, sorry to bother you and not to be that guy who whines about updates, but I was just wondering when-ish you think the next update will be? For either one of the books. If you’re not sure then no worries!!

DefectivelyFlawless

@NathanPureSimp Hey, not a bother at all! I really appreciate you checking in. Things have been a bit hectic with work recently, but I’m aiming to get both stories updated in early June once things settle down. I’ve already mapped out the next Indignant chapter, and it’s actually shaping up to be the longest one yet, so hopefully that’ll make up for the wait, ahaha.

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you know, for anyone still interested, that I am working on the next chapters for both Indignant and Ineffable. They're in progress, but they're taking a little longer than I expected. I’ve suddenly become important at work, and it’s been eating up more of my time than I planned. Otherwise, an update would've already been posted. 
          
          This is just reassurance that I’m not abandoning my stories. I have plans for where they're going and still fully intend to continue. Hopefully, it will be no more than a couple more days. I really appreciate everyone who's been reading, commenting, or just silently following along. It means a lot.

@DefectivelyFlawless No worries, you can't rush perfection haha. I hope work isn't too stressful!

Ineffable is truly the most well-written fic I’ve come across. I wish I get to see how you end the story and bloom Henrik and Sansa’s relationship. Hope you’re doing well :)

DefectivelyFlawless

@intakeeee5 Ahh, thank you so much!! That means a lot to me. I’m really glad you’re enjoying it. I’ve been working on the next part, and I can’t wait to show more of their dynamic as it develops. Hope you’re doing well too!
