    Summary

    Some say the gods play strange and cruel games, a sentiment Aemon Snow can attest to all too well.

    The brewing discontent of 282 AC found itself all but snuffed out with the return of one of the Seven Kingdoms' most bitter enemies: The Shivers. Be it cruel kings or righteous peasants, all felt the loving embrace of its ghastly mercies.

    But as the bards sing: the more things change, the more they stay the same.

    Summary

    There’s only one war that matters. The Great War. And it is here. Long, gruesome, devastating... The worst war in living memory.
    Kings and Queens rise and fall, heads roll away in the dirt while some play the Game of Thrones. The wheel turns and turns, crushing those on the ground.
    None can halt the ancient sword of Targaryen. The sword in the darkness, the shield that guards the realms of men. REALMS of men.
    The Prince that was Promised shall bring the Light.

    AUTHOR’s NOTES:
    The main story (Ch 1-83) serves as a Season 7-8 Fix-It, takes the Series S1-6 as canon (with the additional scene in Ch1/Prolouge) It’s NOT serving any ship. Relationships appear, minor Jonsa and Jonerys, nothing explicit.

    Epilogue story from Ch84 evolves around the “Varys-Mopatis plot” and more fan theories I build on, with the Golden Company, JonCon, Arianne and a war that provides conclusion and complete Daenerys redemption. Blackfyre redemption. No Jonsa & No Jonerys (sorry!) More explicit.

    Some ASOIAF characters are reinvented to fit or give them “redemption arcs”, some share only backstory and name with ASOIAF or were adjusted, because of S1-6 GOT character cuts.
    Author is not native English. Non-beta’d.

    Summary

    Ten years after her mysterious disappearance, Princess Cerelle Baratheon finally returns to King's Landing - just in time for her younger brother Joffrey's wedding. But before she can even attempt to reunite with her family, she first needs to mend her bond with Oberyn Martell - the man who had raised her for years as if she was his own, only to betray her trust and leave her broken by the wayside.

    Yet danger brews all the while. Her actions as the Golden Paladin during the War of the Five Kings in the Riverlands have made her many enemies, and some of them now threaten to destroy the peaceful life she is trying to build for herself. Chief amongst them is Robb Stark - despite how she had saved his life during the Red Wedding.

    Perhaps this time, Cerelle will no longer be able to run away from her problems and must face them head-on. Perhaps this time, she must finally choose between doing what her family demands of her, and what she herself views as right.

    Summary

    317 AC.

    Three hundred and seventeen years after Aegon’s Conquest, and only seventeen since Daenerys Targaryen set foot on Dragonstone and set the world aflame. The wolves still howl in the North, the roses still bloom in the Reach, and the queen rules from the Iron Throne, though peace comes only by fire.

    The Lannisters are mostly gone, their debts paid in blood and ash. Only Lord Tyrion endures, bound to the realm he built and the queen who would see him undone.

    In the Tower of the Hand stands Galladon Storm, the Bastard of Tarth, grandson to the Evenstar. A red-and-smoke sword hangs at his side, a lion’s shadow at his back. He was raised in secrecy and crowned by chance, but the gods are not finished with him yet.

    Beyond the walls of King’s Landing, whispers linger...of a golden knight who would not burn, and a woman in blue who would not break. Some say they died long ago. Others swear they ride still, where no songs dare follow.

    Post–Jaime I, A Dance with Dragons.

    A tale of war, love, and the long memory of vows kept past death.

    Summary

    My take on what a possible Jon Snow show set after season 8 could be.

    Bloodraven has one last trick up his sleeve before he dies, a contingency in case his doubts prove true. A broken man Beyond the Wall may not be as broken as he seems and as the ramifications of Northern Independence and Bran Stark being named King play out, House Targaryen and its last scion seek to have the last laugh.

    Summary

    (DISCONTINUED) This word derives from the Latin "vĕrĕor / verêri," meaning "to revere, respect, fear." A befitting noun of the husband-consort of Queen Daenerys, Shaerion Targaryen. And this is the story from the perspectives of him and his family.

    Summary

    “Who shall I squire for, father?” Jon asked. “You mentioned an old friend.” Manderly maybe? I don’t know if father has any friends not of the north. They’re the only ones who follow the Seven.

    “You shall squire for Ser Lorence Roxton.” Lord Stark answered. Oh. I have zero clue who that is. “His father Lord Moryn Roxton is the old friend I mentioned. I fought alongside him at Pyke. He was also the one who told me where to find your Aunt Lyanna.” He added quietly as an afterthought.

    “I don’t recognize the name, father.” Jon said. “They’re not of the North?”

    “No.” His father confirmed. “House Roxton is a noble house of the Reach, sworn to Highgarden and House Tyrell. If memory serves, Ser Lorence squired for Ser Arys Oakheart, now of the Kingsguard.”

    Wow. Robb will be so jealous.

     

    or

     
    Instead of taking the black, Jon travels south to become a knight.

    A knight, and so much more.

    Summary

    Arthur Dayne is no Sword of The Morning. Not in the eyes of his sister-the heiress of Starfall. She has prevented him from even attempting the scared trails and so as a counter he seeks to spread his name to the far corners of all seven kingdoms. Building his esteem though tourneys, hunting games, and any and all contests great or small. All in hopes of a change of heart.

    But Ashara will not be made a fool of. If she was able, she'd be pulling him from off the back of his horse, confining him in is rooms at Starfall or sending him across the narrow sea in disgrace. But still she'd rather avoid such a nasty faith, for her dear brother and so she joins him on the road, scrutinizing his every move.

    And so begins what all of Westeros will come to know as 'The Duels of Daynes'.

    Summary

    Many humans on Planetos are playing with madness, in different ways and forms. Some of them probably never wanted to. Others chose to play with it. Others want to master it, or to stop it. Too many simply are caught in it, and have to play with it or die without even trying. A small House is caught in the awakening of magic as well as in the game of thrones, in both cases thanks mainly to their liege-lords, but also in good part thanks to other Houses with a certain affinity to magic, power, or both. How will House Mormont fare in this madness? Better than the Starks, than the Targaryens? What are the elusive Reeds and Hightowers doing? Let us follow (almost) all of our characters from the ASoIaF world in this journey through madness…anyway, we will pay more attention to the fates of Jorah, Alysane and family. Because one hero - or two, or three for all that matters - is not enough when things start getting out of hand, no matter what legends tell. Ask the Children of the Forest, if you don’t believe me. [Book-verse with show!Hardhome and some show!stuff here and there. More information in the notes at the beginning of the prologue]

    Summary

    Nobody was more surprised than Lynesse when it turned out that she was Drift compatible with Jorah Mormont, not with Humfrey.

    Nobody was more amused than Humfrey, except maybe Jorah's cousin Dacey.
