Summary
What if Triwizard Tournament, but Hunger Games?
Centuries ago, instead of hiding from muggles with the Statute of Secrecy, wizards used a ritual to create a dimension for all magical beings to live openly. But maintaining that freedom comes at a lethal price. Every seven years, the worthiest students in Europe have the great honour of being selected to compete in a tournament: three deadly tasks, two months of training, one victor. Grindelwald’s Ministry demands it. But certain troublesome students only follow rules which happen to align with their own plans.
Tom Riddle intends to win. Harry Potter refuses to lose. From rivalry comes respect, and an intense interest that, once sparked, refuses to burn out. They are binary stars locked in orbit in a world built to break them apart. But the world doesn’t define them, their choices do: what they decide to fight for, and who they choose to trust. If they get those right, they might be able to define the world.

Summary
A six-year-old Jon Snow seeks refuge by Lyanna Stark’s tomb after being scolded by Lady Stark. There, he discovers a hidden compartment containing several old papers and a beautiful, warm stone. When Lady Stark later finds him asleep at the foot of Lyanna’s likeness, curled around what is unmistakably a dragon egg, she uncovers the truth of Robert’s Rebellion—and of Jon’s birth. Confronted with the weight of her past mistakes, she vows to do better by the boy and by the North, which she had rejected from the first day of her marriage due to her faith and southern upbringing.
Note: English is not my first language feel free to correct my grammar if you spot any mistake, This story will be long and have numerous ooc protagonist and will not follow canon. I have read the books a long time ago so my writing tend to mix element from the show and the books but I tend to use the wiki of ice and fire as my base canon.
As a Gay men i find this fandom quite lacking in queer representation so i will try to portray a more diverse panel of major character and their romance. there will be no explicit sexual content written only fade to black the mature rating is for typical ASOIAF violence.- Language:
