Chapter Text
Robb Stark King in the North the twins.
He was uncertain of who the blonde woman was that shot the arrow that saved his pregnant wife, but he was grateful whatever Roose Bolton and Walder Frey had tried to do was stopped by these mysterious allies are they our allies though?
One by one Walder’s sons and allies were killed by them as they stormed the hall leaving only the Northern lords and his allies standing but they left the old man who was the lord of the twin’s alive shock and fear on his face. A thundering roar was heard from outside the keep something he had never heard before.
Greywind came trotting in blood covering his snout he was unharmed but it was the wolf that followed behind him that shocked the King in the North its snow-white fur and red eyes focused him “Ghost?” was all he managed to say. A few more men made their way into the hall one was a tall red-headed man laughing and joking about how easy it was to kill theses southerners. The young man next to him was what caught his attention he looked to his mother whose face had gone as white as Ghost’s fur.
He was older, taller, leaner and more seasoned in battle with a scar on the left of his face down to his cheek and another on the right side of his eyebrow he had grown and changed but he knew it was his lost brother Jon Snow.
Jon stopped before him and his mother they stared at each other for a while before Robb hugged him “Snow” He spoke in a soft voice his brother only replied with a raspy “Stark”
Robb looked around the other lords also seemed shocked at Jon’s sudden appearance Jon had left Winterfell over six years after a massive fight with their father never to be seen again his last known were about's being Castel Black as Jon disappeared beyond the wall.
Jon looked at his mother “Lady Stark” then he looked back to him “It appears we made it here in time to stop Tywin Lannister’s plan. He had promised both Walder Frey and Roose Bolton that they would be made the Wardens of the Riverland’s and the North respectfully for your death’s”
Robb was uncertain of how to respond to Jon revelation it was true Roose was moments away from killing Talisa and his unborn child he looked at the old Frey felling his fury make his blood boil.
Walder just scowled back at him “You should never have broken your promise to me boy. You insulted me and House Frey and you thought there would be no payback” He wanted to cut him down right there, but Jon put his hand on his shoulder and stopped him.
“Tormund take the old cunt outside. I am certain he is hungry and would like a good meal” The tall redhead smirked as Jon’s men grabbed the screaming old man.
Jon turned and began to walk out “Follow” Was all he said in a commanding voice. Robb complied this New Jon had a new feeling of confidence he acted like a King the Northern lords and his mother also followed.
Once everyone had gathered and stopped leaving the old Frey in the middle of a large circle he went to stand next to his brother “Robb it would be better if you stood near Val, for your safety” Jon pointed to the beautiful blonde who had saved his wife’s life. He took his place next to her only giving her a nod for now as thanks for saving his wife.
Jon spoke “Walder Frey you are charged with breaking guest rights in an attempt to kill the Lord of Winterfell on the orders of the bastard king Joffrey Waters the sentence for this crime is death” Jon looked at the only man “Do you have any last words?” Jon looked at the old man waiting for his answer.
He could hear a loud thud as if something large was making its way behind Jon the old Frey gave no reply making Jon nod “Very well”
“Then I King Jon, Aegon Targaryen sixth of my name, the White Wolf of Winterfell, King of the Andal’s and the First Men, Lord of the seven kingdoms and protector of the Realm sentence you to die” Aegon Targaryen? Was all Robb could think.
A large beast came behind Jon from the shadows with a rumbling bellow a dragon! The beast was Jade in colour with a hint of bronze in its scales all the northern Lords looked as if they were about to shit themselves Walder Frey, on the other hand, had left a small puddle beneath him.
“Dracarys” Jon spoke as bronze flames engulfed the old man Robb swallowed his fear.
After Walder’s death, Jon turned his attention to the beast “Rhaegal, Soves” The beast quickly took off into the skies.
Jon then focused back on himself and the Northern Lords “We all need to talk”
Jon the Twins
“Rhaegar and Lyanna ran off together?” Robb questions him.
Jon simply nodded “Aye from what I have been told, Lyanna Stark ran off with Prince Rhaegar, leaving a note with Lysa Tully telling her brother her intentions. Lysa was meant to give it to Uncle Brandon” Jon looked to Catelyn a woman he despised “Peter Baelish made her burn the note knowing exactly what Brandon would do. Littlefinger he set everything in motion”
Lady Stark was confused “Why would he do such a thing?”
Jon rolled his eyes in response “Revenge for the embarrassing defeat he was dealt by uncle Brandon, Lysa is in love with the man and would do anything for him” Jon chuckled “Peter was doing it for you to remove his obstacle so he could have you for himself. Did not go as he planned though apparently” Her eyes were glossy with tears hearing of Peter betrayal.
Jon sighed “Peter is behind everything Jon Arryn’s death he even helped with Fath… Lord Starks arrest” Tears were beginning to form in Lady Starks eyes at the thought of Peter betrayal though Jon did not feel sorry for the woman.
“What does this have to do with you, Jon and how do you have a dragon?” Jon was surprised that Robb had not figured it out he sighed “Rhaegar married Lyanna and after Rhaegar fell on the Trident she gave birth to a son Aegon Targaryen, me, Lord Stark he promised to always protect me as she bled to death of her birthing bed”
Jon again saw the sting of betrayal in lady Stark’s eyes she got up “Excuse me, boys, I need to be by myself” She left the room.
Robb put his head on the table “Fucking hell, father” Robb looked back up at him “That is why you vanished right?” Jon only nodded in response.
“Who told you this?” Jon scratched his head “I heard father and uncle Benjen arguing over it. However, The Old Three-Eyed Crow and Bran who is now the Three-Eyed Crow they have filled in the blanks” Robb looked at Jon
“Bran get visions so you will have to ask him, the Iron born have been chased out of the North completely even from Deepwood Moat and Winterfell. both Bran, Rickon Summer and Shaggydog have been returned home” Jon explained.
“Well mother will be happy, and your people and the Dragon?”
“Right I brought them from north of the wall. I will tell you why later in privet, but they amount to over fifty-thousand fighters with Giants and mammoths included there is another fifty thousand back north some are at Winterfell and others are scattered across the North helping guard it against the Ironborn they are under the command of Mance Rayder, Bran and Rickon” Robbs jaw dropped.
“As for Rhaegal, I found him north of the wall in a fury and only I could calm him, from what Bran told me he is one of Daenerys Targaryen’s dragons or he was, now I guess he is mine. Euron Greyjoy uses some horn on the Dragons trying to tame them. It only sent the two that had no rider into a wild rage, and they flew off. Daenerys killed Euron but only one of her dragons returned to her” Jon leant back in his chair as the other lords just listened.
He continued “Rhaegal flew North of the wall and landed at a free folk settlement where I became his rider eventually, we came south of the wall, freed the North of the Ironborn and headed after you to save you from tonight”
Jon tapped his hand on the table “I’m going to take the Throne and unite the Seven Kingdoms. I need to do it before Winter comes”
Robb nodded “You have the North’s support Jon and I’ll talk to uncle as well” Robb Stood and spoke to his lords “Lord Umber you said the Dragons were gone but you were wrong my brother is a true Dragon and he shares the blood of the wolves. We broke from the south because they were false kings the wolves only bowed to dragons and it appears that they are back”
“I pledge myself to my brother Jon Snow to King Aegon Targaryen son of Rhaegar Targaryen and Lyanna Stark the King raised in the North” His brother drew his sword and knelt before him
The Northern lords followed and knelt to Jon which if he was honest made him uncomfortable “Fucking kneelers” He heard come from his redheaded friend.
Queen Daenerys Targaryen Dragonstone.
“It doesn’t feel like home” She sighed as she leant over the magnificent table, they displayed all of Westeros for her.
“We won’t need to stay here long your Grace taking the capital will be easy though I would suggest approaching the lords of Westeros to gain some of their support” Her old knight Ser Barristion, he would be invaluable to her cause here.
“What has been happening with the war of the five king’s Ser Barristan” She leant over the table as watched as Ser Barristan arranged the pieces that represented the great houses.
“Well, we captured Stannis Baratheon, his wife and daughter most of his men have returned to Stormsend on the promise that we would not kill Lord Stannis and his daughter except this Ser Davos Seaworth he wishes to stay to ensure Lady Shereen’s safety. The Red witch wishes for an audience with you” She nodded in understanding.
Ser Barrstan continued “The North’s forces are moving south lead by both Robb Stark and Jon Snow” She did not know who this Jon Snow was, so she gave the old knight a curious look “Jon Snow is Ned Starks Bastard son and Robb Starks brother, Jon went missing over six years ago. He came back from beyond the wall with an army of over one hundred thousand and marches south with fifty thousand of the wildlings, they say he has giants and mammoths fighting for him”
She looked around at her advisors and commanders Geryworm was expressionless as always, Missandei seemed worried but Darrio seemed board playing with his dagger “Give me half your men and I will bring both Robb Stark and Jon Snows heads my queen” It made her roll her eyes.
“Good luck with that Darrio. Jon Snow and his army chased the Iron born out of the North, brought down both House Bolton, House Frey and saved Robb Stark. Now they are headed south towards Kings landing they might make good allies. The Lannister’s executed Ned Stark and almost killed Robb Stark they have just as much reason to hate them as you”
Daenerys lent forward nodding “Their numbers are also good and if it is true that they have Giants with them they will be a force to be reckoned with. What of the other Houses?”
“The Lannister’s have mostly returned to the capital or the Westerlands. The Tyrell’s are about to wed Margery Tyrell to Joffrey Waters and Dorne will not join you unless…”
Daenerys rolled her eyes “Unless I marry one of their own not worth it really, why marry for fifty thousand spears when I can marry for the North, Riverlands and these wildlings”
Darrio took on his disapproving stance “I doubt any from the North is worthy of your beauty”
Barristan lent forward “Well both the heir’s to Winterfell and Riverrun are married so you would need to go for a minor lord” Darrio smirked
Missandie chimed in “What About Jon Snow? He seems to be the one these wildlings follow and makes up the bulk of the power behind the North?” She thought on it she was curious how a Bastard had amassed such an army on his own it was impressive really. This Jon Snow he was nothing and now he is…. Something.
Barristan shook his head “The Lords of Westeros would not accept a bastard as King when they could have one of their own next to the throne”
Daenerys shrugged “I care not what they think Ser Barristan. Look more into this Jon Snow and give me more information and I will decide if he is worthy of being a King. This Jon Snow seems far more impressive than any other lord I have been told of so far”
Theon stepped forward Yara glancing at him “Your Grace I grew up with Jon at Winterfell and while we were not close. I was a dick really; Jon was a good lad though he and Lord Stark did not part on good terms from what I remember”
She turned to him “Why?”
Theon shook his head “I don’t know but they were arguing a lot about Jon’s mother”
She looked around “Who was she?” Ser Barristion shook his head “I don’t know your grace Ned Stark was very secretive of her identity. I think it was to protect her honour” She looked to Theon.
Theon shrugged “I never knew, I know Jon did not know. Maybe that’s why Jon and Ned Stark were fighting. Jon disappeared shortly after that. He was last seen at Castel black. Then Jon went beyond the wall and until now he had never returned or been heard of.”
Darrio yawned “Who cares about a Northern bastard or his father issues. Daenerys sends me North. I will bring you this Jon Snow” Daenerys shook her head “Not until I know more about their forces and what and who is behind their power”
Barristan Nodded “I will look into it, you Grace”
Later
She watched her two sons in the sky. She missed her third son Rhaegal Her jade boy it had been over one year since he disappeared, and she had heard nothing since. Daenerys was almost losing all hope in finding her missing son “He will turn up your Grace, Viserion was gone for months and he found his way back to you” Her friend Missandei stood beside where she was sitting.
Missandei sat next to her as she leant her head on her shoulder “I hope you are right Missandei”
She smiled “It is not the same with just two of my sons with me. The Dragon must have three heads”
Missandie laughed then changed to a serious expression “Darrio I think he might be a problem your Grace you should have left him back in Essos”
She sighed “It was a mistake allowing him in my bed during my time in Meereen” She smirked at her friend “They were fun times, but I should never have slept with a commander from my forces. He is even more relentless now. I fear he will be worse if or when I choose a husband”
They noticed the old Knight running as he stopped to take a breath “Your Grace I have a lot of information to discuss the North and this Jon Snow” She looked at Missandei then back the old knight and nodded.
“We should discuss this inside Ser Barristan just the three of us and Greyworm, no Darrio I grow tired of his pursuit of me” The knight nodded “Yes your Grace we should, there is a lot to discuss”
She was even more intrigued by this Jon Snow now. He lived with the wildlings then saved them from something, but they seemed to love him for it. Then he brought them South somehow the details were sketchy at best.
Jon Snow had led a bloody campaign through the North and Riverlands removing the Iron Born then wiping out the Bolton’s and the male line of Frey’s and taking the Twins from them. Jon Snow then united the wildlings with the Northern houses.
“He sounds like quite a man” The knight nodded as Missandei smirked.
“There is one more thing your Grace” She looked at the knight curiously.
“Rhaegal, he has been spotted up North” Her expression went to shock than a sigh of relief her jade son was so close.
She looked around confused “Why the North?”
Barristan shrugged “I don’t know but, it all seems to focus on Jon Snow, your grace”
She closed her eyes and took a breath “Keep me posted on the situation with the North and bring this red witch to me”
The old knight nodded.
Later in the Dragonstone Throne room.
The Priestess introduced herself as did Missandei for Daenerys
“Tell me Milesandre what does your lord of light expect of me?” She kept her composer, but the red woman unsettled her.
“I am told you are interested in the King in the North; Robb Stark your Grace I was hoping I could provide some wisdom on the matter”
She shook her head “While I am interested in the Northern host, it is Robb Stark’s bastard brother Jon Snow would who has piqued my interest you suggest something else?” the red woman turned to look into the flames for a moment.
She stared for a while before she spoke “No you must meet with this Jon Snow. He is more than he seems though he appears a white wolf there is a dragon inside him as well. Ice and Fire must come together if they do not none will survive the coming winter”
The priestess's eye’s widened as she continued to look into the flames “You should speak with this Jon Snow let him tell you of the things he knows. The things he has faced and seen with his own eyes”
Daenerys thought on it and nodded “Very well” she looked to her knight “Keep me posted on the North and bring me more information on this Jon Snow”
Milesandre and bowed “I offer my services to you, your Grace”
She looked to her advisor who was uncertain “Very well, however, Dragons bow to no gods”
The priestess nodded.
Jon Snow Harrenhal.
The night he saved his brother Sandor Clegane had returned Arya Stark his sister to them. Now the poor girl could not get out of Lady Starks sight. The Hound only wanted gold and chicken for his trouble and then left right after a meal, Jon was not certain where he was going to go.
The stay in Riverrun was short and uneventful both Lady Starks and Arya were upset that they would be staying behind with Lord Tully. Jon mostly wanted Lady Stark out of his sight the more he was around her the angrier he was getting with her presence. Jon used the argument that that freeing Ser Jaime meant that she could not be trusted as her actions as well as Robb’s execution of Lord Karstark had almost cost them the war he was not going to risk it. He was surprised when the Blackfish and Robbs uncle agreed to it.
Jon also used the argument that as Talisa was carrying Robbs heir, she needed to be somewhere safe as Jon believed the war would be quite one-sided from this point on.
Jon, Robb, The Blackfish, the North, Riverland forces and the free folk had marched south making it to Harrenhal.
The Castel was unoccupied by any lord now though Peter Baelish was still its Lord. They surrendered easy enough to them it would make a good pitstop on the march south.
Jon had executed several of Roose’s men for raping a young woman Pia among many other women that had served the Lannister’s. The Northern Lords seemed to relish in the deaths of Roose’s men Jon though felt nothing as he removed their heads or set them ablaze.
Ser Armory Lorch was dead killed by a bear under Roose Bolton’s orders which had annoyed Jon. He was planning to send the man who murdered his half-sister to Dorne as a piece offering. Now he would have to settle for sending his head to them instead as well as ensure that Tywin and the Mountain were kept alive for his plan and to be honest, they were the two that mattered anyway.
Robb had been discussing their plans moving forward though Jon was not exactly listening to him.
“A raven from your brother, Bran your Grace” Lord Manderly gave him the sealed scroll.
Jon read it then sighed Robb looked at him “What is it?”
Jon lent back Jon sighed “My aunt, Queen Daenerys Targaryen has arrived on Dragonstone. She has taken Lord Stannis and his family as hostages; the lords of the Stormlands are headed home for now”
Robbed looked over the map “What are her forces and how do we deal with her Jon?”
Jon stood up placing a piece of wood with the Targaryen symbol at Dragonstone “Daenerys has eight thousand unsullied, a few thousand sellswords and over one hundred thousand Dothraki screamers” The other lords got a look of worry on their faces “She also has two dragons one is bigger than mine the other smaller”
Glover spoke, “You will find a way to deal with the mad Kings little bitch” some of the lords laughed.
“Careful Glover, Daenerys may be the mad king’s daughter, but she is not her father and the last thing we need is a fight between two dragons burning the seven kingdoms to ash” He looked at Robb who nodded in agreement.
“Jon’s right the last time the dragons danced brought nothing but death and destruction” Robb Elbowed Jon “Brother, you might need to take one for the cause” Robb smirked Jon chuckled this got some grumbles from the Northern Lords.
Glover objected “The next Queen of the Seven Kingdoms should be of Northern blood such as Alys Karstark, one of the Manderly girls, Lady Sansa or even the Wildling Princess”
Jon started laughing “Alys Karstark is already married, the Manderly girls treated me like shit growing up” Lord Manderly shifted uncomfortably “Val has already refused such a proposal as we are so different from each other and the seven hells would freeze over before I married my sister Sansa’s treatment was no better than Lady Stark’s”
Robb spoke “Sansa was just a girl Jon”
“I know Robb and I will forgive her for her actions, but I will never marry her as I still look at her as my sister. I find it disgusting that anyone would even think such a thing” Jon informed.
Again, Glover protected “Daenerys Targaryen is your aunt….”
“Aye, she is, so what? the Stark’s and other houses have practised such marriages anyway. If Daenerys was my sister you might have a point Lord Glover” The lords seemed unconvinced making Jon sigh “Daenerys is expecting to be Queen of the Seven Kingdoms, and she has the numbers and two dragons to do serious damage two us or destroy us”
He sighed “It will be a pointless battle one I would rather avoid if possible and marriage is likely the only way to do so” He pointed to the piece he placed “I need to set up a meeting with the Queen before we run into her forces on the battlefield. Lucky, I have a bargaining chip for such a meeting”
They all looked at him confused making him roll his eyes “I have her dragon. I am certain she would not pass up the chance to see him again, I just need to choose a place to meet with her”
Robb nodded “The Gods Eye would best Jon. Will you tell her about your parents?”
Jon only nodded “It would be a bad idea to not tell her Robb and your right I was thinking the Gods Eye as it is important” A Targaryen alone in the world is a terrible thing. Jon remembered his great uncle’s words.
Daenerys Targaryen Dragonstone.
She put the scroll down on the table wondering what to do.
“Your Grace what did it say?” Ser Barristan questioned
“Jon Snow wishes to meet at The Gods Eye, the Isle of faces just me and him” Daario laughed.
“What a stupid thing to ask as if you would meet on your own” Daario’s presence had become more and more annoying, so she just glared at him.
“He has Rhaegal and said if I want to feel safe to bring Drogon and Viserion to protect me. He will come unarmed with Just Rhaegal”
Missandie question her “How does he know the dragon is Rhaegal?” She had a worried look on her face.
She shook her head “He describes and names Rhaegal as my jade and bronze son” She lent on the table.
“Well, you are not going” It was almost a demand from Daario.
She just looked at the sellsword unimpressed by his demand “I am, and you do not make commands of me Daario, so watch your tone” He was going to say something but did not.
Then she gave orders “We will mobilize my Dothraki and unsullied and head out in two days. Daario you will remain here to guard the castle in case we get any important allies while I am gone. We will head to the Gods Eye and meet the Northern forces are at Harrenhal if we are successful at allying, we will move on Kings Landing immediately”
Ser Barristan nodded as did her other advisors “Any agreement with the North will be fulfilled after I sit the Iron Throne not before.” She smirked give a glance at the sellsword who did not look happy.
He protested “So I am to stay here as you sell yourself?”
She laughed “An alliance by marriage is not selling myself Darrio. You are staying here so you do not kill anyone if I do choose to marry this Jon Snow. I want no harm to come to Lord Stannis and his family and if any dose I will burn you alive for it is we clear” He scowled as he nodded.
“I told you this would happen Daario it is why I told you not to come. If you do not like it once I take the throne you may leave”
She turned and left the room.
Tywin Lannister Kings Landing
He slammed his hand on the tabled “Everything was set Robb Stark should have died. Ned Stark’s fucking bastard son saved the fucking day. Now the Bolton’s and the Frey’s are dead even the Ironborn have been removed from the North”
He handed the scroll to his daughter then continued “And to top it off Daenerys Targaryen has arrived at Dragonstone with her army and full-grown dragons”
Cersei chuckled “Dragons have not won a war in over a hundred years”
His stunted son spoke “There have not been true dragons since the dance if the Dragon Queen and Robb Stark team-up we are fucked the North has giants fighting for them Cersei”
“We have strong high walls we will rain fire on them from above” She arrogantly replied.
“Dragons rain fire from above and Daenerys has three” Tyrion argued back.
Joffrey spoke “Maybe we should team up with her grandfather”
Tyrion started laughing getting scowls from everyone.
So, he explained “After what father and Jaime did not a chance, she would wed you Joffrey. Father ordered her nephew Prince Aegon and niece Princess Rhaenys murdered and your uncle Jaime murdered her father leaving her to a life on the run from Robert’s assassins”
They continued to look at him all dumfounded but Tywin so he continued “Who would you team up with Joffrey. The Army that gives you the Riverland’s and the North consisting of over eighty thousand fighters and fucking giants riding mammoths or us who just have the Westerlands and the Reach backing them. I know who I would choose”
Jaime entered the room “The Tyrells have fled the City and taken Lady Sansa with them” Tyrion’s jaw dropped.
Tywin slammed his fist again “Fuck”
Tyrion spoke “So it is just us now, we are fucked”
Daenerys Targaryen not far from Harrenhal
The trip from Dragonstone to Rooks Rest then to Harrenhal was not a difficult one with the help of the Greyjoys and the Velarion’s fleet it was a quick trip. They only stopped at Rooks Rest shortly then they marched on, it had taken them a little over a week, but she could see the God’s eye as well as Harrenhal in the distance. Harrenhal was massive. The biggest castle in the seven kingdoms it was impressive.
She could see him in the distance flying over Harrenhal, Rhaegal circled it for a while. She could hear her other two sons call to him after a while he disappeared. To her disappointment, her son did not return to her making her heart sink in her chest.
“Well this Jon Snow was not lying it seems” She spoke to her friend.
Missandei smiled at her “You must be happy your Grace soon her will return to you”
She signed “Perhaps. I find it strange that he has not returned to me even after all this time Viserion did after all. Even now he does not even though I am so close, it concerns me Missandei”
Her friend was confused “Why? He seems well”
“Dragons are loyal but only to one their rider Missandei. For Rhaegal not to return, I fear it is for that reason. The priestess Milesandre she said Jon Snow is not what he seems. He appears as a white wolf but inside he is a dragon as well. What if this Jon Snow has tamed Rhaegal will I have lost him forever?”
“Would it not be a good thing for there to be another Dragon rider Daenerys?” She looked at her friend confused “If he is a dragon rider it would mean he has the blood of old Valyria inside him like you. It would mean you are not alone. You could shear it with someone, with him”
She thought on it for a moment but Missandei continued “It would mean there is someone you could pass the blood on with”
“I can’t have children and I know you don’t believe it, but I was sleeping with Darrio for years and I got pregnant once and miscarried” She felt even sadder thinking about it.
“Exactly Daenerys you miscarried and that means you are not barren. Maybe the problem was not you but Darrio. Have you ever thought that maybe his seed is weak” Daenerys just looked at her sadly “All I am saying Daenerys is don’t give up hope, you have been with one man since Drogo and he only got you pregnant once and you lost the child because it was a stressful time.” She only nodded in response though she still felt like all hope was lost.
She noticed Rhaegal had again taken to the skies again and watched as he flew to the Gods Eye and disappeared behind the tree line. She could only see a small figure, but she knew Rhaegal had a rider and it means that for now her son was lost to her.
She took a deep breath and then let it out “I guess I should go and meet this Jon Snow”
She made her way to her Largest son climbed on him and took off into the skies.
Jon Snow the Isle of Faces.
He prayed to the Old Gods hoping that this meeting would go down well Rhaegal was close by. The Dragon was just staring to the sky. he could hear Daenerys other sons roar from above as they came into land. The smallest of the two landed first right next to his Jade brother. The sounds they were making made it look as though they were having a conversation of their own making him smile it appears as though her dragons were truly brothers.
The black dread reborn landed next to the cream dragon he was only a little bigger than Rhaegal. The Queen looked over to him for a moment before concentrating on her jade son he saw a happy smile on her face. Gods, she is beautiful
Drogon lowered his body and Daenerys dismounted very gracefully whereas Jon would just slide off Rhaegal sometimes on to his arse. That is what Daenerys appears to be grace in human form she spewed confidence and it made Jon nervous. Get a grip, Jon, you are a King just as she is a Queen. He told himself as he took a deep breath. Once she was on the ground she ran over to Rhaegal and started rubbing his snout speaking in Valyrian. Jon only understood the few words he had learnt from old man Aemon.
“My you have grown big my son you're almost as big as your big brother” She was beaming but had tears in her eyes. Rhaegal purred to her voice it was calm and soft and music to his ears.
She turned her head to him and spoke to him in a firm voice “I would like to hear how you came to be my son's rider, Jon Snow” Her tone made him feel as though he was being scolded by a disapproving aunt.
Jon nodded “Aye, I will but first I will need to tell you about this place and why I chose it as our meeting point and of how significant it is for me and what it means for us”
Daenerys Targaryen Isle of Faces.
He was a handsome man this Jon Snow. He reminded her of Viserys though he looked kind and gentle. Jon was taller more well-built. It made sense he was a fighter a warrior. Jon’s eyes were so dark they appeared black to her.
She though all Northmen were brutes that is what Viserys had told her, but Jon was beautiful for a Northman, but she could see was clearly of Valyrian descent as well he had similar features to Viserys.
He stepped out from the shadows beneath the heart trees “This is where it happened this is where Rhaegar married her” he was looking around.
She looked around as well as she approached him smiling “This is where Rhaegar Married Princess Elia?”
He stopped before her and shook his head “No Daenerys this is where he married Lady Lyanna Stark after he ran off with her” Rhaegar married Lyanna?
Her smile disappeared “But Rhaegar was already married to Princess Elia Martell-“she was shaken by this revelation.
He sighed “The documents I have from a chest behind Lyanna’s crypt in Winterfell say that Rhaegar had his marriage to Elia Martell annulled. Then Rhaegar married Lyanna Stark here” She could see this story did not bring him happiness. Some would glorify it as a tale of true love, but this Jon Snow did not approve of what Rhaegar and Lyanna did.
“You are wondering why I am starting with this and how I know. I am not Ned Starks son I never was. My real name is Aegon Targaryen and I am the son of Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and his second wife Princess Lyanna Stark” She felt a little angry. Appears as a white wolf but is a dragon as well.
“Rhaegar had already had a son named Aegon Targaryen and he was brutally murdered by the Mountain his sister too. Your half brother and sister if what you say is true” She honestly wanted to slap him. She had already dealt with a pretender claiming to be her nephew across the sea. However, Jon Snow was not claiming to be Elia’s Aegon. She would hear an explanation from him, so she looked at him.
“I don’t know why I was named Aegon if that is what you are wondering. Rhaegar was already dead when I was born. Maybe Lyanna named me out of guilt for what had happened to Elia and her children. I hate the name she gave me” She settled down a little he was right his name was not his fault however distasteful it was for his mother to name him after her dead nephew and his dead half-brother.
She sighed “I assume you have proof?”
He looked at her. “Of my actual birth no. However, I have proof of Rhaegar’s annulment and his marriage to Lyanna Stark. For my birth, I only have the story of when Ned Stark went to Dorne to retrieve his sister Lyanna he came back with two things her body and me. Put the story together along with the paperwork I have and me riding Rhaegal-“
She nodded closing her eyes and taking a breath “It just makes sense, too much sense even if the marriage and annulment were illegal, I will not discount that you being Rhaegars son is a very likely almost undeniable really. You look like Viserys and he was said to look like Rhaegar though not as handsome I hear” She sighed “If you are trueborn it makes things complicated”
Jon nodded as he made his way to Drogon letting her largest son he removed his right glove and allowed her son to smell him before he began rubbing his face. even Drogon She knew he was not lying he was Rhaegar’s son.
He spoke softly and gently “It only makes things complicated if we allow it to. Daenerys the last thing anyone wants is another dance with dragons it will only hurt our House at this point it would likely end it”
“What would you suggest then?” She waited for his answer.
He smirked “Do I need to spell it out? We combine our claims and our forces it would only make Dorne difficult to bring to the table as they will not be fond of me Daenerys”
She nodded “Combining our claim makes the most sense. Does it not bother you that we are aunt and nephew? Targaryen’s marry blood to blood but what of the Stark’s”
“My maternal grandparents on my mothers’ side were first cousins and the Starks have practised such unions in the past when the bloodline was on the brink of extinction” he replied.
She nodded “And we are the last two Targaryen’s” she paused and thought for a moment it made sense “If we were to marry Dorne will be difficult to bring to the table but not impossible, however I can’t ha-“
He put his hand up before she could finish “Have you ever thought that the witch was not a reliable source of information Daenerys. You have only ever been with the sellsword since you lost your husband and son maybe he is the problem”
She felt her temper rise but she kept her composure “How do you know- I will not risk our House not continuing on Aegon”
He looked uncomfortable at the mention on that name “My name it is Jon, please do not call me that. We do not need to marry yet Daenerys” He paused for a while thinking what he would say “Once we take the capital, we….” He paused again and took a deep breath “We could try putting your theory to the test if after a year or so you are not with a child then we look at our other options”
She thought a moment on his suggestion chuckled at his boldness “I could swear you are just trying to get me into bed Jon Snow” Her comment made him laugh making her smile “So we try for a child if I fall pregnant, we marry and if I do not?”
“We look at other options, but we can discuss them at a later date” He looked at her for her response as he made his way to Viserion give him his attention. My sons are like butter in his hands
“It is a solid plan. I guess we can use the excuse that we are getting the realm in order before we marry as to hold off anyone else asking for our hands”, she walked over to Drogon as Jon made his way to Rhaegal
Jon climbed her son “Then I invite you and your people to Harrenhal to discuss this further, Queen Danaerys as well as our plans for taking the capital. As for Dorne, I have a plan to try and bring them to the table” Jon nodded to her.
She nodded in return “Then I will see you at Harrenhal King Jon. I look forward to speaking with you again” He nodded then spoke the words as Rhaegal took off with him. For her seeing another dragon rider made her cheeks red and warm her heart flutter and he was a Targaryen. She was not alone. I am not alone A tear streamed down her cheek I am not the last Dragon
Jon Stark Harrenhal.
“How did it go, Jon?” His brother looked up at him
Jon shrugged “As I expected. She was a little unsure of everything but for now, we are allies. Queen Daenerys is likely making her way here now then we can discuss taking the Capital” He sat in a chair across from his brother.
“So, you two will marry?” Robb waited for his response.
Jon shook his head “Not for a while. We will have a lot of cleaning up to do Robert and the Lannister’s have left quite a mess for the crown to clean. Daenerys would also like to wait a while, for personal reasons that are not for me to share” Robb nodded in understanding.
“When we take the capital, I want to kill Joffrey Jon too take his head for the North and father” he looked at Jon Robb was not asking it was a demand.
“You shall have him Robb, but a quick death is too good for him to take the cunt to suffer take him North to give him the Blood-eagle for father and for what he has done to Sansa and many other men women and children. Seven hells take him out to the Kingswood for all I care just make him suffer Robb. If you do take him to the Kingswood, I will be there, but Joffrey is yours, Robb, you have my word” Robb gave an approving nod as did the other Northern Lords.
“Thank you, Jon”
“Make certain our men know that Tywin, Jaime and the Mountain are to be left alive. I have plans for them Robb” Robb seemed to understand him.
“What of the other lions Jon?” Robb began moving the pieces the represented Daenerys and her forces down with their own”
“If they surrender then leave them be, I will not have Tommen killed because his Grandfather mother, father and brother are cunts. If he is killed the lords responsible will pay with their own lives” Jon got up and walked over to the table.
“I want Cersei and Tyrion alive as well. When we take the keep cut down the guards that do not surrender and take the Lions alive to face judgment for their crimes”
Robb nodded “Understood, however about Tyrion”
“Joffrey was the one that hired the assassin that tried to kill Bran, not Tyrion. Joffrey was trying to impress Robert. Littlefinger was again trying to sow chaos when he told your mother it was Tyrion. Besides, Robb Tyrion won a trial by combat to kill him now would be wrong. He is also the one who has kept Sansa safe since their marriage which they never consummated meaning it can be annulled” Robb was shocked by the revelation but nodded in agreement.
Daenerys Targaryen just outside Harrenhal.
“Your Grace you seem unsettled” Her old knight inquired.
She gave a sad smile “Yes well it appears I am not the last dragon anymore Ser Barristan”
He sighed “Jon Snow, he is Rhaegar’s isn’t he. Rhaegar’s bastard with Lady Lyanna Stark”
She shook her head “No, Ser Barristan Jon is not Rhaegar’s bastard, Jon is Rhaegar’s trueborn son. Rhaegar married Lyanna Stark” She continued explaining everything Jon had told her the old knight went quite as he possessed the information. His reaction made her feel strange. Ser Barristan had always praised Rhaegar but this information darkened her opinion of her brother.
“Could he be lying your Grace” She looked back over to Missandei who looked worried.
She shook her head “I don’t think he is. Jon did not seem happy with what his mother and father had done. I do not think he is even happy about being Rhaegar’s son. I don’t believe he is lying about who he is Missandei” She let out a deep breath “We make our way to Harrenhal Jon has invited us to further discuss our alliance and the attack on the capital” They nodded and began to make there a way to the castle.
Olenna Tyrell Kings Road head to Harrenhal.
“Grandmother, father I don’t understand I was to be Queen once I marry Joffrey” she looked back to her granddaughter
She sighed “Oh, my dear that will not happen now Daenerys Targaryen is back she has a powerful army behind her and two large dragons. The North is on its way with an army almost as large that has Giant’s and if my reports are correct one of Daenerys dragons has chosen Rhaegars bastard as a rider”
“Wait what Rhaegar had a bastard?” her son was shocked by the revelation “This is the first I am hearing of it”
She rolled her eyes “Ned Starks bastard Jon Snow is Rhaegars, son. Think about it, Mace. Ned Stark went to Dorne to retrieve his sister Lady Lyanna and came back with her body and a baby boy he said was his bastard. I often wonder why so many did not figure it out” He son thought on it for a moment.
“Seven hells what do we do mother?”
She smirked “My sources tell me the Daenerys is making her way to Harrenhal to meet with Robb Stark we go there, and we offer our elegance in exchange for Willas being Daenerys King”
Margery sighed “Grandmother why would Daenerys meet with Robb Stark he is married the North after everything will not bow to a Southern ruler unless it is one of their own is on the throne after everything they have been put through since King Aerys”
“And who would she choose this Jon Snow? no lord would accept a bastard king my dear” She smirked to her granddaughter
“They accepted Joffrey and we all knew who and what he was. We knew that he was not Robert’s son but accepted it because House Lannister would make me Queen the rest did it out of fear. Jon Snow has a dragon Daenerys has two Dragon’s. If Jon Snow is Rhaegars son many Lords will side with him for just that reason alone” She was not sure she like her granddaughters’ tone.
“We have Sansa Stark as a bargaining chip the best we can hope for is one of our own on the council grandmother. Daenerys is meeting with this Jon Snow, not Robb Stark, He is the one who brings the wildlings, giants and the third dragon. I know who I would choose out of Willas and Jon Snow” When did her Granddaughter become so good at politics.
“You may be right dear” We will have to see.
Harrenhal Daenerys.
“On behalf of King Jon Aegon Targaryen, I welcome you all to Harrenhal, Queen Daenerys I am Robb Stark Lord of Winterfell and the Warden of the North” So Robb Stark has bent the knee to his brother no, his cousin. Robb like Jon was handsome though he did not look like Jon at all. Though he gave off a warm welcome the Lords around him did not, they were all scowling at her.
She also noticed the people she assumed were the Wildlings she gulped when she saw her first giants, they did not seem to care about her presence at all.
She moved her focus back to Robb Stark and he gave a nod “Thank you Lord Stark” She motioned to Ser Barristan “This is my Hand of the Queen, Ser Barristan Selmey” Robb nodded to the knight then shook his hand.
She motioned to Missandei “Missandei here is an advisor and close friend of mine” Robb smiled and nodded “My Lady”
Finally, she motioned to Greyworm “This is Greyworm the commander of the Unsullied” again Robb Stark nodded “I look forward to seeing the unsullied in action I hear great things” Greyworm only gave a nod.
Missandie gasped when a massive wolf came from behind Robb Stark This must be one of the Stark dire wolves Ser Barristan told me about Robb smiled as the wolf sat at his side “Apologies my Lady this is Greywind he is my dire wolf he will not harm you, I Promise” She found it funny that Missandei was nervous about the wolf yet she was so calm around her sons.
He motioned them to follow him “Please the King is waiting for you”
They walked through the keep to the war room. Jon was leaning over it his hair was loose and he was wearing just black leathers with a redshirt, Targaryen colours. He had two rings hanging from his neck on a chain “Welcome to Harrenhal, Queen Daenerys, Ser Barristan the Bold, Lady Missandei and Greyworm” He said all their names without looking up.
Another wolf stood up from behind him White as the clouds and eyes of Rubies Jon looked up at them giving them a warm smile. He noticed their attention on his wolf “This is Ghost, my dire wolf and like with Greywind he will not harm you” She nodded in response.
Jon walked over closer to her and kissed her hand Will he always acts like a gentleman to me?
Cleared her throat “Thank you, King Jon, I am impressed by your forces and this keep”
Jon looked around for a while “It is impressive that is still stands after the black dread made it an oven. A little large for my taste but it will do until we head for the capital in a few days?”
“A few days not tomorrow?” She questioned
Jon lent back on to the table “The Tyrells are on their way here with their forces about a day behind you. They want to make Willas Tyrell your King”
She looked around at her companions “I believe they will be disappointed then” Jon nodded in agreement.
Robb made his way to Jon’s side as Jon handed him a scroll “They are bringing Sansa with them, Robb we will send her to Riverrun to be safe” Robb read the scroll before looking at Jon.
“Well mother will be pleased to have her returned, Yes sending her to Riverrun would be best I think” Robb tossed the scroll on to the table in front of him.
Then looked at both herself and Jon “How do we bring them to the table, Jon?”
Jon looked at Daenerys looking for her input.
She thought for a moment “A council seat maybe?” She looked to Ser Barristan for input
The old knight rubbed his chin “It would be a wise choice yes. Though you will need a reason to say no to marriage for either Willas for the Queen or Margery for the King”
Jon Shrugged “Well after Mace Tyrell sat on his ass at Stormsend as Rhaegar died on the Trident they need to earn our trust again Stormsend was worthless and Mace did it to save his skin while saying he was still loyal to the Targaryen’s. That is what we say to them if they make a fuss about it”
Daenerys looked to Ser Barristan who spoke “While it is true that happened and it does give a good excuse for neither of you to wed a Tyrell. However, they will not like the implication you are making”
Jon shrugged “It is not an implication when it is true. Just like Olenna Tyrell and Little fingers plan to murder Joffrey at his wedding to her granddaughter and then blame in on Sansa and Tyrion Lannister. After which they would marry Margery to the more controllable son Tommen. The Tyrells only care about a better deal and their self-preservation that is why they are coming here with Sansa”
Everyone looked around at each other Robb gave them the scroll he was reading “Everything is here, in this scroll, our brother is a green seer and gets vision or something. Jon’s description was vague on the subject but it is what Bran wrote in the scroll” She read it confirming Jon’s information then gave it to Jon.
Jon laughed looking at Robb “Maybe I should give him the position of Master of whisperers”
Robb shrugged “He would be good at it, though mother would not be happy” Jon only shrugged in response.
Daenerys watched the brotherly interaction between Jon and Robb they were cousins though they acted like brothers. It made her jealous of Jon’s family and thinking of him running around playing and having a fun childhood. Awhile she and her brother were running from Roberts Assassins. Starving, cold and afraid it made her blood boil.
Ser Barristan spoke “What of Dorne? The Queen says you have a solution to bring them to the table?”
Jon took notice “Right, I want the Mountain and Tywin Lannister alive Dorne can have them and punish them as they see fit for Elia, Aegon and Rhaenys. I would send them Ser Armory Lorch as well but he was dead when we got here so his head will have to suffice”
Daenerys finally focused again “It is a good plan and a start for fixing what Rhaegar did” Jon nodded.
Jon spoke “How rude of me you are all likely tired and in need of rest. I have had rooms set aside for you all please follow me” Jon then led them through the keep to where they would be staying they were given their own wing to stay in Jon explained that he trusted his men with his life just not Daenerys so it would be best for her to assign her men to protect her.
Jon Harrenhal
“You noticed it didn’t you Jon? The Queen appeared upset at seeing us” Robb lent against the wall.
“I did Robb, she was likely thinking I had a super happy life while she and her brother suffered and starved. I will tell her the truth, but I will never compare what I went through what she has endured. Your mother’s cruelty was nothing compared to what her brother put her through. Everything she went through was my mother and fathers’ fault. Though her father played a larger part in the start of the rebellion” Robb looked at him sadly Jon had told him everything his mother had done after they left Riverrun.
Jon continued “I cannot imagine what emotions she was thinking. She finds one of her only kin the child born of the two people who sparked the events that ruined her family. Only to learn he grew up in a castle warm fed and surrounded by family while she suffers” Jon looked at him sadly “I would be upset as well” Robb nodded agreeing.
Jon left to find the Queen.
