    Summary

    In the south, a King lies dead on the cobbled street outside Maegor's Holdfast, while traitors burn in the North with the liberation of Winterfell. Across the sea, a long lost Queen prepares to set sail for Westeros, ready to take back what was lost. With war on the horizon, cold winds blow from beyond the wall, threatening the very existence of the seven kingdoms.

    Summary

    “Daenerys is a queen. Only a king can answer this message.”

    “A king,” Sansa echoes, finally meeting his eyes. “Or a princess.”

    •

    In Westeros: war.

    To the east, the Targaryen queen has landed on the shores of Dragonstone, prepared to take back the throne stolen from her family. To the south, the lions of Lannister bathe in the blood and copious spoils of their war—unchallenged, undefeated. To the far north, beyond the Wall, looms an unimaginable nightmare led by a god of death, a demon who will bring eternal winter to the realm by means of his army of walking corpses. And in the middle lies the shattered and broken North with its newly-crowned king, a king given a choice between a dragon and a lioness.

    The only problem? Sansa thinks that negotiations aren't exactly her brother's specialty anymore and he is surely going to get them all killed.

    Or: Sansa goes to Dragonstone to meet Daenerys instead of Jon.

    Summary

    “Your father didn’t love me when we married. He hardly knew me or I him. Love didn’t just happen to us. We built it slowly over the years, stone by stone, for you, for your brothers and sisters, for all of us. It’s not as exciting as secret passion in the woods, but it is stronger. It lasts longer.”

    The pre-canon story of Ned and Catelyn Stark's marriage and how these two people made love bloom through the trials and tribulations of life.
