[Fic] "Heritage" -- Gormenghast
Steerpike is my favorite character in the Gormenghast trilogy, to the point where I almost didn't want to read the third book. However, his background is a total blank: he appears in the kitchens at 17, already fully developed, with no hint of a family or childhood. "Heritage" is an attempt to give him an origin.
Heritage: Nothing comes from nothing. A story of the once-proud Steerpike family, and their downfall, until the only things left are memory and vengeance.
In other words, this is a love story, followed by random death and fire and gore. Go check it out! :-)
(You can also read the story here on ff.net.)
