Summary
The second War for the Dawn is lost before it has even begun. With a little help from the Old Gods, Bran sends the last surviving Starks somewhere they can make a difference: back in time. Alone in an unfamiliar place, scattered and separated from each other, they must save the dragons and their house from death and madness. The survival of all humanity depends upon it.
Alternatively: Jon discovers just how messy that side of the family can get, Arya is forced to concede that some problems can't be solved by sticking them with the pointy end, and Sansa finally gets to play the game of thrones. This time around, it is a woman they will call Kingmaker.
(Or: What if all Alicent Hightower needed was a friend like Sansa Stark?)

Summary
Otto Hightower awakens from his execution to witness his daughter before him.
Alicent Hightower, with her youthful face, yet with the mature gown of her mother clinging to her frail bones, making the contrast ever so striking.
He could not let her go through the torment she faced in her former life.
Ambitions be damned, all Otto wanted to do now was to let his favourite child live the live she deserved.
Free from the shackles of the Targaryens.
And most importantly, happy.

Summary
Otto Hightower dutifully follows the word of his dearest companion, Viserys Targaryen; a man he grew from boyhood with, a man he cared ever so deeply for.
Yet when he instructs the Hand of the King to ask his maiden daughter to join the Small Council on a quiet day, Otto becomes weary.
And for that he was correct in doing so.
Alicent matters more than the wants of two lonely boys that found comfort in each other many years ago.
She is his light. A remnant of his darling Alerie.
And Viserys wanted to take her.
Or in which Otto is a good parent.

Summary
Alicent has done her duty. The title of Queen has made it’s way to her, the king’s babe is in her stomach—all and she hasn’t reached her sixteenth nameday.
One moment and she realises she can’t do this anymore. He had taken her innocence, broken down her friendship with Rhaenyra, and now, all she had was the babe in her belly.
She knew Viserys would destroy that too.
Unless, Alicent got rid of him first.

Summary
Lyanna’s will to live has left her ever since she heard of the demise of her father and brother Brandon.
The last remnants only remain for the sake of the child within her that she loved so dearly despite the circumstances that made him.
She had no energy for hate and regrets, all she can do is hope her child will live.
━━━━⊱⋆⊰━━━━
“I—I can’t name him,” she said, “He won’t ever be mine.”
“Lyanna?”
“I can’t survive. It even hurts me to speak, Ned.” Lyanna continued, gripping onto Ned’s arm firmly, with the little strength she had left. “Protect him, Ned. Claim him. Please.”
“In my absence, let him be yours. Love him where I cannot.” She continued, eyes wide, fervently declaring her wishes. “Promise me, Ned.”
