    Summary

    “Where is the boy, Cat?” the Lord of Winterfell asked, his eyes dull and lifeless.
    “Ned… the boy…” Catelyn tried, her voice faltering.
    “It was Sansa’s fault—and her stupid friend’s!” Arya shouted, her face streaked with tears, anger blazing through them.
    “That’s not true! I didn’t mean to—I was afraid!” Sansa cried back, her voice breaking.
    Arya lunged for her. Robb caught her around the waist, holding her fast as she thrashed.
    “Let me go! You gave the order—you’re just as guilty as she is!”
    Robb flinched as if struck.
    “I trusted you,” Arya choked, her voice splintering. “For once, I trusted you instead of Jon… and now it’s my fault too.”
    The words seemed to drain what little strength she had left. She sagged in Robb’s grip, sobbing, her small frame trembling.
    Eddard Stark did not move. He stood where he was, face carved from stone, as if none of it had touched him.
    “WHERE IS MY BOY?!” he roared at last,something his family had never heard before.

    Far to the south of Winterfell—far beyond even the Trident—and, strangely, many years before, another voice cried out those same words.
    And stranger still… it was the same boy they spoke of.

    Summary

    An unnatural storm in 1815 throws a British regency-era naval expedition, and the troops they carry, into the world of Westeros at the outbreak of the War of Five Kings, trapping them in a life-or-death struggle to survive, and find their way home. Written as a thought experiment - how would an early 19th century military and political force change Westeros? How would Westeros change them?

    Summary

    What would you do in the villain’s place?

    An adult consciousness wakes in the body of three-year-old Joffrey Baratheon. He's armed with foreknowledge and a lifetime's worth of experience… and it is not enough. He is still Cersei's son, still Robert's "heir," and still sitting on a secret that could kill him and everyone he loves. And the more he builds to protect himself, the more he has to lose. This is a story about governance and grief, about the cost of necessary choices, and about what it means to love people who have the power to destroy you.

    It is also, somewhat accidentally, the tale of how King Joffrey I Baratheon completely revolutionized the Westerosi shipbuilding industry, and with it altered the balance of power across the entire known world.

    Summary

    A man wakes up in a frozen hut south of the Wall with no memory, no name, and a status screen. He dies of hypothermia three times before he figures out how to keep a fire going.

    No noble birth. No convenient canon insertion point. Just a villager in the Gift in 288 AC, with a leveling system, an autosave that rewinds time when he dies, and the growing suspicion that he's not the first person the system has chosen.

    Gamer AU. OC SI. Slow-burn progression fantasy. Canon divergence.

    Summary

    With Balon's Rebellion finally defeated after more than three and a half years of fighting, the realm patches up its wounds. But as the great victory tourney approaches in King's Landing to celebrate the victory, things unravel in the background.
    The North, Vale and Riverlands still do not conceal their hate for the Targaryen dynasty. The Westerlands, broken and humiliated, look to Tywin's handship to bring them back on top. The Reach, which has somewhat suffered, stands unchallenged. The Stormlands slowly slip away from Rhaegar. Dorne stands in the shadows, playing its own game. The Iron Islands face Tywin's wrath, defeat and despair. Prince Viserys, the true victor of the war, has secluded himself to voice his opposition to his brother's recent actions. And, finally, in the background, the Faith feels betrayed and insulted and prepares its own plans...
