    Summary

    This is not a heroic tale of dragons, wolves, knights, or great battles.

    This is a story about family. A story set long before King Robert’s arrival, before Sansa traveled back in time and changed the course of events, before the world descended into war and terror.

    It is the story of a house that should have disappeared.

    At just nine years old, Almina Montfort finds herself at the head of a ruined family. Her elder brother has fled south, leaving behind crushing debts and a house on the brink of extinction. Years pass. Almina refuses to sell her lands, clinging to what little remains and doing everything in her power, despite her young age, to keep House Montfort alive.

    But fate is not always what we expect.

    In another life, House Montfort would have died out before King Robert ever reached Winterfell.

    But this time, their story will not be written the same way.

    This time, they will have a chance to survive.
