    Summary

    What would have happened, if Tywin Lannister decided to wed Daenerys Targaryen? What if Dany was forced to marry the Old Lion, instead of Khal Drogo? How would the history of Westeros change?

    Lord of Casterly Rock understood that King Robert was no good for the realm, if those 3 million gold dragons the crown had in debt with the Lannisters was any proof. He turned his eyes to the East, over the Narrow Sea. He will wed the last Targaryen and bring his house to its highest glory.

    How would history change, if Jon Arryn had sent a raven to Casterly Rock before he died?

    All credit goes to George R.R. Martin. This story is different from the original, although most characters are the ones from GOT.

    Summary

    Tywin Lannister takes Sansa under his protection for purely selfish motives, not knowing her claws have been honed in order to survive Joffrey's cruelty.

    Summary

    Sansa escapes King's Landing during the bread riots but ends up captured and brought to Harrenhal where she is reunited with Arya. She catches the eye of first Ser Gregor then Lord Lannister. This sets off a series of events that will reshape the realm, with ripples reaching the far north of Westeros and far south of Essos.

    Tywin/Sansa is the focus for much of the early chapters. Additional POVs and plotlines come in later, but Sansa and/or Tywin will remain central characters throughout, their relationship a constant driving force.

    This fic could easily be called: The Trials and Tribulations of Sansa Stark. It could also be called: The Trials and Tribulations of Everyone in Planetos, but since Sansa is the main character...
