Summary
Sandor uses his lordship after the war to take his little bird north. A Tale Inspired by Karliene Reynolds version of "My Featherbed" from ASOS.
"My featherbed is deep and soft, and there I’ll lay you down/I’ll dress you all in yellow silk, and on your head a crown.
For you shall be my lady love, and I shall be your lord. I’ll always keep you warm and safe, and guard you with my sword./ And how she smiled and how she laughed, the maiden of the tree/ She spun away and said to him, no featherbed for me/
I’ll wear a gown of golden leaves, and bind my hair with grass/But you can be my forest love, and me your forest lass."
—Tom Sevenstrings, A Storm of Swords, pg. 309 -

Summary
Belle is no princess, but then Rumpelstiltskin is certainly no prince. His price is her hand in marriage.
He smelled of leather, and faintly of the leaves in autumn and of dark forest soil. Magic clung to him, wrapped all about him, so much more powerful than any she'd ever known. Magic was everywhere in the world, but when visible it was always small magic, scarce and sparkling and precious. In him magic pooled and swirled, bottomless and dark.

Summary
His story was an odd sort of story, a story that needn’t be written down, but spoken by tongue and shared throughout the land. His story was one that he couldn’t express through song and dance, his story was something the world hadn’t yet heard, and though he often spoke stories of the dragons of old and how they were a blessed group he never told them his secret.
Bilbo Baggins has a secret no one would expect, he isn't a Baggins at all. He is a Dragon, Arandur the Golden, the great Golden Drake of the Western sea. Last of the civilized dragons to roam Middle Earth.
