Heir of the Last Dragon 2.0 by ThunderHawk727
Fandoms: A Song of Ice and Fire - George R. R. Martin
11 Jun 2026
Tags
Summary
What if Ned Stark had spared Ser Arthur Dayne, Ser Gerold Hightower, and Ser Oswell Whent at the Tower of Joy? What if the events of Game of Thrones happened differently? What if Ned Stark had told Jon who his mother was? When Ned Stark tells Jon Snow his true name, he goes east. To Essos. Then Valyria. The House of the Dragon will rise once again, to greater heights than anyone could have imagined. This is a rework of the original fic I posted awhile ago. I found the writing style did not reflect the way I wanted to do this fic. There will be chapters that feel very similar to the original fic, and there will be chapters that did not make the cut.

Summary
"Don’t be afraid. He will not harm you… unless you give him cause."
Rhaena told true. Outside of the recent battle, the dragon was not aggressive towards humans except if provoked. But this Hightower wouldn't know it.
They should be sworn enemies, yet before the chance encounter between Gwayne Hightower and Rhaena daughter of Daemon, their story may have been written in the stars.

Summary
Right as Rhaenyra was about to give up and flee her tour two months early without a suitor, she met Rickon Stark, the young future Lord of Winterfell. Perhaps she was putting too much stock in a prophecy that could've been decades, even centuries, away from being fulfilled. Still...
From my blood come the prince that was promised, and his will be the song of ice and fire.
Ice and fire.
On the surface, Rickon could've perhaps been called boring if she was being ungenerous. But where she was fire, he was ice; it was clear beneath those cold eyes laid a very sharp edge. It shouldn't have been intriguing, but it was.

Summary
He led her to an aisle of thin, colorful books. Children’s books. He tapped one. “Voila. You see? La Barbe bleue. Yes?” He picked it up and handed it to her. She opened it, flipped through a few pages. Inside were disturbing black-and-white Gothic illustrations.
Fairy tales are so fucked up, Isobel thought. She shut the book and tipped her face to him, chewing her bottom lip. “I don’t understand. I’m sorry,” she told him, then corrected herself in a belated attempt at politeness. “Desole.”
Amusement tugged at the corners of his mouth, but Isobel bristled at the pitying look in his eyes. “You, ma louloute, you are inside his castle, eh?”
Isobel fic that nobody fucking asked for. In an act of rebellion against her father, young Isobel Cartwright runs away with her secret older American boyfriend, but discovers he has secrets of his own.

Summary
At the end of 4x05, Patrice abducts River at gunpoint. This time, they go to a remote, isolated manor where Frank is waiting for them. The slow horses do not see or hear from River again for almost five months. During that time, Frank does his level best to break River and rebuild him into a tool he can use, with Patrice as his assisting shadow. This… doesn’t really work. In fact, the process ends up breaking not River, but someone else.
Meanwhile, Slough House is on overdrive trying to find a missing colleague who the Park is all to quick to deem presumed dead and rubber-stamp his file as such. Louisa almost quits, and finds an odd solace in working alongside Lamb to try to bring their missing agent home. She is having a bad one - the maybe-loss of her best friend is tearing her apart.
It all comes to a head when Louisa follows a lead that she knows better than to follow. She is meant to be the last blow that destroys River's resolve. It doesn't shake out like that. By the time they're both rescued, it's a long road to recovery. But there is a road, and there's help along the way.

Summary
“She tried to get her pocket knife, moving her body as much as possible so she could reach the inner part of her jacket. She shifted and shifted, but he didn’t loose his hand on her neck or his body on hers — quite the contrary, since he made himself closer and moved his hand from her wrist to her waistline. Come on, Sid, you’re a professional. Don’t stand there frozen.
But that was exactly what she did, at least until she heard a voice coming in their direction. Someone said something in French, but, since her ears were ringing, all she could understand was ‘move’ and some cursing.
‘Bridget?’ The voice said, and Sid didn’t hear, putting her hand on her chest and trying to recompose herself. ‘Bridget! Are you okay?’
She looked up and saw blue eyes concernedly looking at her. ‘River?’”
or
River is an assassin, and Sid is the agent who is going to take him down. Whatever it takes.
