    Summary

    Flann has problems. What twelve year old doesn't? Well, not all twelve year olds live in Westeros. Even fewer of them live in the Neck where the average knight would die horribly in a day. Worse still, it's just after Robert's Rebellion and the Greyjoy stupidity and the Seven Kingdoms are a slowly-recovering, bandit-ridden mess. Oh, and she has silver hair, purple eyes, and memories of living in modern Earth. Don't worry though, ancient dark powers are about to wake up and are always willing to help!

    A story that explores the supernatural aspects of Martin's world while the Long Night is inevitably approaching.

    Valyrian looking teen discovers magic in Westeros

    Chapter 26. Crafting glass to make money and travel.. she is now on a ship and about to engage in battle with Ironborn pirates.
    Chapter 27. Flann kills a bunch of Ironborn.. but is thrown overboard by a punch when their leader turns out to be a better fighter than expected.
    Chapter 28. She regains consciousness underwater - under the ship and struggles towards the surface, attacking the wounded on the ironborn ship, using their sacrifice to learn and then use necromancy...
    Chapter 29. The wights kill everyone holding a weapon - luckily Captain Sathmantes figues this out and most of his crew survives. Wyman Manderly makes use of the vitality-gifting jewel and exercises. He is afraid of future trouble, because the jewel is no simple trinket and wars could be fought over it if it were known.
    Chapter 30. Awakening, she finds a large part of the crew deserted using the ironborn ship and Sathmantes is on the brink of death. The crew, scared of her sorcery, does not trust her to care for him, so she uses the wights as intimidation and heals him anyway.
    Chapter 31. Finally, she arrives in Lys, enjoying the luxury, even knowing the hidden dangers.
    Chapter 32. Selling some jewels. Not mentioning they are artificial.
    Chapter 33-38. Flann decides to set up a mercenary company, sourcing recruits from cripples she heals. She also wages a war on slavery, sinking slaver's ships. After a failed attempt on her life, she takes control of the prince of Lys with her magic, and thus most of the city. In Westeros, she offers Ned Stark future knowledge. In the summer isles, she expands her production and mercenary company. In the last chapter, she beats Ser Jorah Mormont, her advisor for leading men, in a spar.

    Summary

    Written as a sequel to the settings of jacobk's fantastic fanfic A Young Woman's Political Record and the Youjo Senki manga, with some inspiration from The Cold War fanfic by embrace_goto_statement.

    After the Second Great War, Tanya thought that her retirement was imminent. Just last for 2 more years, and she can resign as Chancellor peacefully. Little did she expect that Being X would break his decade long silence just to screw her over. What do you mean there's a Monarchist movement? Why does this country still want to be annexed by Germania? How did we accidentally get into a Cold War!?

    This is supposed to be a light-hearted, semi-serious fanfic, with the goal of answering:
    "What if she really became Kaiserin (accidentally)?"

    Not read yet.. Tanya won't be in the picture much - aside form Shadow's recollections (mostly Shadow POV).
