    Summary

    Chapter Three has now been added!

    “It seems like only yesterday I was leaving you at Winterfell," Alysanne said. "Sometimes I think the gods are cruel for keeping us so far apart.”

    “The gods are wise,” Alaric mused, kissing her fingertips. “They know we cannot be left to our own devices for too long.”

    Secrets are discovered, worlds are shattered, and Alysanne Targaryen- once the Good Queen to King Jaehaerys- returns with her daughter Alyssa to the North and the Lord of Winterfell, Alaric Stark, to help her mend the pieces. A continuation of the story "Wolf at the Door". AU-Canon divergence.

    Summary

    UPDATED: Chapter 7 now added as a missing scene. An AU in which Lord Alaric Stark does come to court during the anniversary celebration of King Jaehaerys, but for very different reasons. Under the guise of escorting his daughter Alarra to become a lady-in-waiting to Queen Alysanne he and the queen rekindle the secret relationship that began months before at Winterfell...for just one night.

    Update includes a ten year time jump to 70 AC at a convening of one of Alysanne's famed Women's Courts at White Harbor.

    Summary

    The woman ties the end of Namor’s clothes to Shuri’s, then prays. Or, Shuri thinks it’s praying, except that the woman’s head bends towards Namor. It’s like if I got married to Bast, Shuri realizes, and it’s a miracle she doesn’t burst into laughter right then and there, at her own wedding, thirty-thousand feet under the sea.

    -

    (In exchange for the safety of Riri Williams, Shuri agrees to rule alongside Namor of Talokan as his wife.)
