Chapter Four : DreadFort

Dreadfort (Domeric is 10, Ramsay is 13) this chapter was written with little help from ProtonCoccus

The air around the Dreadfort was colder than neighboring Winterfell. For a raven to survive such cold, it must have a special bloodline. Communication using those birds ranged from two to three days to a whole moon. Sending missives to the Boltons took around five days at best, and a week at worst.

Roose Bolton sat inside his solar, freshly leeched and pale as always. It was rare for the Lord Paramount to suddenly send him a letter, detailing the potential betrothal of his son Domeric and Sansa Stark. Perhaps, the Quiet Wolf finally broke free of the Trout Wife's control, that was what he hoped.

"You called for me, Father?" inquired Domeric, having just entered the room.

"Yes. I received a letter from Lord Stark. We are to depart for Winterfell in three days' time."

"To what do we owe this visit?"

"That my son, you will discover. You have always been curious about the Northern Ruby."

His father 's words struck Domeric. He was to meet Sansa Stark, a true jewel amidst the cold climate of the land. He had hoped to one day marry her; the Flayed Men could use some Direwolf pelts.

" Will Ramsey be coming with us " Domeric asked in a low tone hoping he wasn't Ramsey was a rough playmate to play with he was cruel and harsh especially to animals.

" Yes, unfortunately " Lord Bolton mumbled knowing he couldn't leave Ramsay alone God knows what the boy would do.

" When do we depart " Domeric inquired.

" In a few days, Domeric listen to me carefully this visit must go well you must be on your best behavior " Roose firmly told his son.

" I promise but I can't say the same about Ramsay " Domeric mumbled.

" Leave your half brother to me " Roose said knowing he would have a sternly talking with that boy.

His father soon dismissed him and Domeric made his way back to his chambers with a smile on his face as he was walking back he bump into someone on the way.

Domeric looked up and noticed it was only his cruel half brother, " Ramsay "

" Brother, why are you in a rush don't tell me father realizes what a disappointment you are and has cast you aside in favor of me " Ramsay smirked.

" No, father was just telling me we leave for Winterfell in a few days " Domeric answered.

" The Starks, I hear you're married to the red wolf a beauty but her eldest sister Lyarra is considered the most beautiful lady in the north I wonder why father didn't bethroed you to her " Ramsay exclaimed.

" Father says he tried to but Lord Stark refused the betrothal " Domeric muttered.

" I could see why you aren't good enough for a beautiful lady like that, Sansa Stark is perfect for you brother " Ramsay said.

" I should pack " Domeric said and tried to walk away but Ramsay blocked his path.

" Don't walk away from me little brother " Ramsay snarled yanking his chin up harshly.

" Ramsay, stop it " Domeric whimpered.

" Make me " Ramsay challenged with a smirk as he continued to torment the little bolton.

" What's going on here " Septa Ella said making his way towards the two brother, Ramsay cursed under his breath and released his weak little brother from his hold.

"Septa Ella " Ramsay greeted with a smile.

" Are you alright Domeric " Septa Ella asked checking on the little lord.

" I'm fine " Domeric whimpered.

" We were just playing " Ramsay said.

" I don't believe that's how brother should play " Septa Ella scolded.

" I will be informing your father of this " Septa Ella informed him much to Ramsay worry knowing his father would give him another beating for acting out.

" Septa Ella but " Ramsay trailed off.

" Come along Domeric " Septa Ella said grabbing the little lord's hands with hers bringing him back to his chamber not realizing the piercing stares Ramsay sent her.

Meanwhile In Winterfell

As Lyarra was in the crypts down below staring at the statues of her lost family members the statute that really interest her was her Uncle Brandon.

Her father didn't talk much about Uncle Brandon only that he was brave and head stronger.

Lyarra eyes soon turned to the statute beside her uncle, Shaena Targaryen her uncle had married a Targaryen from what she heard two were in love and very happy with one another.

But the young dragon princess had die in childbirth giving birth to stillborn child, as the young she-wolf continued to stare at the statue for some reason she felt a connection to the woman herself.

Footsteps began to approach, Lyarra turned her head and saw her father walking towards her with a smile.

" Lya, what are you doing down here your mother been looking everywhere for you " Ned said.

" I'm sorry papa I was just curious about the crypts " Lyarra mumbled.

Ned stared at the statues of his lost brother and sister signing he missed them each passing day.

" Can you tell me more of Shaena Targaryen " Lyarra blurted out causing Ned to look at her with a sad smile on his face.

His niece was staring to look like her mother more and more each passing day which worried him, it was no doubt that Lyarra was Shaena's daughter through and through the way she would sing and play the harp like Shaena and Rhaegar would in the capital.

Through she had his brother eyes, smile and spirit, she truly was both parts of her parents a stark and a Targaryen.

" Shaena Targaryen was the princess of dragonstone the younger twin sister of Prince Rhaegar, she was fierce and kind in many ways and cared deeply about the people's welfare she loved to sword fight with her brother Rhaegar and sing and play the harp " Ned states.

" She sounds like an amazing person " Lyarra smiled.

" She was " Ned muttered looking at his sister-in-law statute with sadness in his eyes.

" Did Uncle Brandon love her " Lyarra. questioned.

" Very much your uncle adored her the two ruled Winterfell and Dragonstone for a time being "

" Mother says she was a thief that stole things that didn't belong to her, why does mother hate Aunt Shaena so much " .

" That's a story for another time now come along you'll be late to your sew lessons your mother will be furious if you miss it " Ned said ushering the curious little ice-she wolf out of the crypts.

King's Landing

As Jaime was making his way to his sister's chambers he heard moaning and grunts coming from outside.

His eyes widen in alarm and tugged at the doorknob only to realize it was locked.

Jaime knock on the door with a bang angry beginning to fill in his body.

Inside, Cersei was on her hands and knees being pounded from behind by one of her many lovers Ser Kettleblack.

She would often taking him in his bed a few times when Jaime was away on King's guard business.

" That's it pleasure your queen " Cersei moaned as the knight thrusting into her harder and fast her boobs began to bounce up and down.

" Fuck, my queen " The knight grunted as tried to hold back from spilling his seed into the Queen.

A loud knock on the door causes them to pause for a moment, " Who is it " Cersei asked with a wearily voice.

" Sweet sister may I come inside " Jaime asked from outside her chamber door.

" Not now Jaime " Cersei snarled.

Cersei eyes widened, " Should I go, my queen? " The knight asked looking at her.

" No keep fucking me " Cersei commanding some part of her wanted to let her brother in but another part of her wanted to teach him lesson for forgetting about her.

Her brother had been busy the last couples of weeks guarding her fat oaf of a husband, leaving her bed cold forcing her to find pleasure elsewhere.

The knight nodded and began to thrust back into her at a faster race, the lioness trying her best to cover her moans up.

" Who's in there with you " Jaime snarled and began to pound his fists on the door loudly.

" No one brother now go before I have you personally removed " Cersei moaned lowly.

Jaime cursed under his breath and walked away from his sister's chambers wondering if his sister was being unfaithful to him.

No she couldn't be they had made a promise "I will only love you and take you into my bed Jaime no men can make me feel the way I do about you " Cersei promised him on their sixteen nameday the first time they made love to one another.

He had made a vow too that day claiming he would relinquish his right to Casterly rock and join the king's guard so he'll never have to marry or have children.

He never wanted to wed or have a family of his own with another other woman but Cersei he had once dreamed of marrying Cersei he had brought up running away one time to Cersei but she had just laughed at him and said be practical.

Cersei carved power without it she would be nothing, she obsessed with Joffrey one day ruling the seven kingdoms and she as acting regent.

Robert wouldn't live for long not the way he was living he would soon perish one day and Joffrey would become king.

God help the seven kingdoms when that day would come knowing Joffrey as King would be a nightmare.

" Quite the nightmare. " Jaime thought

Jaime let out a sign he knew he would have to repair things with his sister hopefully she would forgive him for being distance towards him but in the end she would always forgive him.

Hopefully she would forgive him again this time around.

The Boltons make Lyra wear butt plugs to their meetings. She is unable to sit.

But when Roose Bolton looks her dead in the eye and ask her to sit she could refuse, not when there are other people in the room. The entire time she was uncomfortable but also very wet. She thought she would be able to stand up after the meeting is over and the others left but she was wrong. Roose told her to keep sitting. He went and stood behind her and started to grope her, making her moan. He lifted up her dress to see how wet she was, making her embarrassed. Roose humiliated her more, told her how much of a slut she is to get wet from an object that is designed to punish her.

About Me: 21+. She/Her. EST. I write on Discord but like to plot on Tumblr. I write in third person, past tense and around 2-4 paragraphs. I work full-time during the week so replies won't happen every day. I try to get them up as soon as possible and don't really expect more than 1 reply a week out of my writing partner because sometimes that's all I can do myself. Because of my limited amount of free time, I don't double.

Please read everything and be 21+ to interact!!!

What I'm Looking For: Threads for my five-ish biggest fandoms right now. I prefer canon x canon but will take on some canon x OC (I'm just picky with those so don't be offended if I turn your OC down). I'm open to MxM (my big preference for my male muses), MxF, or FxF. I like canon and canon divergent plots the most. As long as a plot could reasonably happen within the universe, I'll likely be okay with it. I'm open to writing NSFW/smut and do prefer romantic ships, but I'm also okay with keeping things clean.

I'll be listing my main muses for each fandom and some of my favorite ships (with my preferred muse in italics, if I have a preference). I'm more than open to discussing other ships, however. There's only a small chance I'll turn one down.

hi there! i'm eliza (she/her) & at the moment i'm craving either some harry potter, asoiaf, or some hunger games rp. it's like its 2013 again! i'm 25+ (sigh!) so unwilling to write with anyone under 21 under any circumstances, and I write on discord, generally on private servers.

i like to double up in terms of canons - if i write your preferred canon, it would be great if you could write mine - and if we do mxf ships I prefer to double up on those too. I am comfortable writing all genders and dynamics, I just find that having two ships means we both have equal investment! in terms of ocs I have noted a couple of oc scenarios I would like to explore, but in general I prefer to stick faiiiirly close to canons.

i am definitely a 2-3 paragraphs type of writer and i love to ramble on about our characters, novel/novella style!

below i have listed a ships i'm craving, with my preferred role in bold*, as well as some canons I just love writing in any scenario! *if neither is bolded you can take your pick, it means I love writing both of them <3 italicised means I would literally kill for you to write this with me. i'm open to canon x oc or canon x canon, as well as mxf (generally my default but not always!), mxm, or mxf.

I'm very easy going (just silly really) and would put my activity at about a 6/10 - I won't be on discord every day but will absolutely check in with you if I think I'm going to be away from my phone or extremely busy. while I don't have any triggers per say, I prefer to plot and write a little together before plunging into full blown smut, and I like nsfw scenes to have a plot purpose (most of the time lol). needless to say i am extremely anti-jkr. these characters are ours now <3 harry potter: fred weasley x alicia spinnet** (i would probably cut limbs off for this) sirius black x marlene mckinnon sirius black x remus lupin sirius black x ofc oliver wood x katie bell or ofc george weasley x luna lovegood george weasley x angelina johnson narcissa malfoy x lucius malfoy draco malfoy x astoria greengrass alastor moody x anyone fabian prewett x anyone

lily evans x james potter draco malfoy x harry potter ginny weasley x harry potter ginny weasley x pansy parkinson bill weasley x fleur delacour dudley dursley x anyone magical for his redemption arc any minor character ships where we can develop backstories! (just off the top of my head for characters that I love to develop: michael corner, padma patil, justin finch-fletchley, theodore nott, terry boot, susan bones, blaise zabini)

the hunger games: finnick odair x annie cresta haymitch abernathy x effie trinket coriolanus snow x whatever poor girl he decides is going to be his wife gale hawthorne x madge undersee

gale hawthorne x johanna mason ('i could fix him' 'well i could make him worse') finnick odair x ofc (happy to play either role) original tributes in the arena, tribute x mentor if we come up with something good! haymitch x his girl from home (rip babe) asoiaf (book canon): robb stark x jeyne westerling or ofc robb stark x oc if we double! luv writing him sansa stark x jon snow (post parent reveal) jon snow x satin loras tyrell x renly baratheon ellaria sand x oberyn martell catelyn stark x jaime lannister iykyk catelyn stark x roose bolton nooo don't give me the skin of my enemies you're so sexy aha x davos seaworth x stannis baratheon arianne martell x anyone at all! sansa stark x willas tyrell robb stark x margaery tyrell edmure tully x margaery tyrell tbh you can probably persuade me on most canon x canon crack marriages. i got fully invested in lyanna x jaime lannister once so now nothing will surprise me <3 if you're interested in any of these pls like this post so I can reach out and provide my discord!

21+. She/Her. Looking for some of random fandom roleplays. Please be 21+ to interact! 🎃

I prefer plotting on Tumblr and writing on Discord. I write in third person, past tense. Semi-lit/lit (2-4 paragraphs). I try my hardest to reply daily. Depending on how the work week is going, it may take 2-3 days to hear back from me, though. NSFW/smut greatly preferred (with a healthy dose of plot) but not necessary.

I'm mainly interested in canon x canon pairings (MxM, FxF, or MxF). I'll take on some canon x OC (only MxM or FxF). I like canon or canon divergent plots. As long as the plot makes sense within the universe, I'll generally be okay with it.

I'll just be listing the muses I'm most interested in writing as at the moment. I can write others for most of the fandoms. I have my favorite ships but I'm open to discussing doing pretty much anything.

Doctor Who: Eleventh Doctor, Fifth Doctor, Fourteenth Doctor, Sixth Doctor

Fantastic Beasts: Albus Dumbledore, Theseus Scamander

Game of Thrones: Jaime Lannister, Margaery Tyrell, Roose Bolton, Stannis Baratheon

Chapter Five : The Arrival

As Lyarra awoke bright and early that morning by her handmaiden Mora, she was bath and dressed as soon as possible.

Today was the day the Boltons would arrive along with other northern houses her mother was determined to make a good impression.

Sansa was excited about it and hadn't stopped talking about it the last few days.

Lyarra on the other hand couldn't wait to get this over with, she knew her mother would try to find a betrothal for her.

Luckily her father could hold off her mother for a bit which was the betrothal of Domeric and Sansa.

Lyarra sat back in her vanity chair while Mora combined her hair softly, " Is it necessary to have my hair braided " Lyarra grumbled.

" Of course my lady it's important for you to look proper and representative when the Bolton's arrived you are the warden of the north eldest daughter " Mora exclaimed.

"It's Lyarra you don't have to call me my lady " Lyarra informed her.

" It would be improper to address you like that my lady " Mora pointed out.

" I'm allowing you to so what's the harm " Lyarra questioned turning her head to look up at Mora.

Mora smiled down at the young ice she-wolf she had always been kind and sweet and would often try to get to know her household workers a bit more.

But the girl didn't realize that it wasn't proper for a lady to interact with servants and handmaidens.

" Again it's not proper I'm your handmaiden and you are my lady " Mora explained.

" I don't see you as my handmaiden I see you as my friend," Lyarra said.

" I know " Mora signed.

As Lyarra lay back quietly letting Mora braid her hair she wondered why it was such an offensive for servants and handmaidens to interact with their ladies or lords at the end of the day they were her people it was her duty to get to take care of them and get to know her people.

She had asked her mother about one day and her mother had simply said they were of low status and that their jobs were to assist them in whatever way they needed.

But the young ice she-wolf didn't care that lowborn or highborn didn't matter to her she believed everyone was the same it didn't matter if they had no titles or lands.

But the world she was in begged to differ, she hoped one-day things would change for the better.

Later On

As Lyarra was lined up with her parents and siblings, she stood in between Robb and Sansa behind her stood Jon and Theon much to her displeasure.

She had argued with her mother once more that Jon deserved to be up there with the rest of them saying he was Stark her mother had taken it as a sign of disrespect and struck her across the face.

Her father intervened and scolded her mother for hitting her, her mother then began to argue with her father about Jon calling him a bastard claiming he had turned her children against him, and demanding her father foster him elsewhere.

Her father refused, of course, making her mother angrier for the rest of the morning the two hadn't spoken to one another.

Soon the gates opened and in rode Lord Roose Bolton with his bastard son Ramsay Snow and his smallest trueborn son Domeric along with their man.

Lyarra stared at the ground wanting nothing more than to go to the chambers she wasn't in the mood to host.

Sansa's eyes soon lay on Domeric who was staring at her already, she sent him a shy smile which he returned.

Lord Bolton made his way over to the quiet young wolf and bowed, " Lord Stark, Lady Stark thank you gracefully inviting us "

Ned nodded with a smile, " The pleasure was all mine.

" I don't think you have had the honor of meeting my heir Domeric, Domeric come here," Lord Bolton said.

Domeric hop off his horse with a struggle causing Ramsay to snicker at him, Domeric made his way towards his father and Lord Stark before bowing.

" My lord, my lady, thank you for inviting me into your home, your home is quite beautiful " Domeric said.

" It is our pleasure to have you " Catelyn smiled looking at the boy in approval he would be perfect for her Sansa.

Domeric soon turned to Sansa and made his way over to her and bowed, " My lady " He lifted up her hand kissing it gently.

" My lord " Sansa giggled.

" Seven hells " Arya gagged at the interaction.

" You all must be tired from your journey my daughters Lyarra and Sansa will escort you to your chambers, " Catelyn said.

" Go on get settled in I must have a chat with Lord Stark in private " Roose informed his youngest son who nodded.

Lord Bolton headed inside with the quiet wolf along with Catelyn, Arya, Robb, Bran, and Rickon trailed behind them.

" Come I am sure you will love Winterfell " Sansa smiled linking arms with Domeric taking him inside

Lyarra rolled her eyes following after the pair in annoyance.

Sometime Later

After showing the youngest Bolton heir around, Lyarra and Sansa showed the young lad to his chambers and left him to get settled in.

As the two sisters were walking back, " Isn't he amazing Lya he's so handsome can you believe it I will be Lady Bolton one day " Sansa gushed.

" It sounds amazing Sans " Lyarra grumbled.

" I know you must be feeling jealous now but don't worry mother and father will find you a bethored one day and you'll be the ruling lady " Sansa exclaimed.

" I'm not jealous Sans I'm happy for you and as for me, I will never marry, " Lyarra said.

" This again Lya don't be stupid you know one day you'll marry I don't know why you just won't accept that I try so hard to get you and Arya to become ladies but instead you acting like wild animals " Sansa scoffed.

" That's who we are and if you can't accept that then don't but you're not going to change who we are " Lyarra snarled getting angry at her sister's comments.

" Mother isn't happy with your guys' behavior " Sansa points out.

" Mother isn't happy about anything no matter what I do I'll always be seen as a disappointment in her eyes " Lyarra signed.

" Mother loves you know I don't understand why you are letting the bastard get in between you and mother, defending him today saying he should stand up there with us was a disgrace you know how mother feels about the bastard, " Sansa said.

"His name is Jon and he's our brother he deserves to be up there with us " Lyarra yelled tired of the way Sansa treated Jon.

Sansa was a mini version of their mother often sending him dirty looks, calling him a bastard who couldn't stand to look at him.

Questioning her and Arya why they were spending time with him when they should e spending time with their trueborn brothers.

" Half brother father dishonored mother and brought home a bastard how do you expect mother to feel about that " Sansa hissed.

" Father made a mistake like everyone else does Jon shouldn't be held accountable for father's actions he is innocent in all of this " Lyarra exclaimed.

" He's a bastard Lya that's who he is and that's who he'll always be " Sansa growled and pushed past her harshly walking away.

Lyarra began to feel the anger in her rising up she was sick of her mother and Sansa putting Jon down and her father not doing anything about it.

As her eyes began to glow a bright blue color she curl her hands into fists her hands beginning to freeze up.

Unaware that a trail of ice was starting to form around her, Lyarra looked down in horror and rush back to her chambers the ice trailing growing more behind her.

Later That Day

After setting down in her chambers, it was time for the welcoming feast that her father and mother were hosting in honor of the Bolton and other northern houses that were joining them.

Lyarra entered the grand hall with Arya both wearing long blue dresses wearing winter rose flower crowns, as they made their way to the high table all eyes were on them.

Lyarra keep her held high and took her seat next to her father and Lord Bolton, Arya sat beside her on the other side Sansa and Domeric were talking among one another, Robb talking with a girl, her mother sitting beside her father's left side holding Rickon in her lap next to her sat Bran who was talking with Rickon.

Down below Jon and Theon were seated along with Ramsay Snow, her mother claiming to have a bastard at the main table was disrespectful and Theon was just a ward.

" You look beautiful my lady " Lord Bolton complimented starting at the ice-she wolf wondering why the quiet wolf didn't offer her to Domeric.

She was the quiet wolf's eldest daughter and was more beautiful she looked much like her father and had the northern spirit much like her youngest sister Arya while the red wolf and the young wolf took after their mother with their Tully red hair and blue eyes.

" Thank you, my lord " Lyarra smiled.

" You look beautiful little wolves " Ned smiled at his daughters while eyeing their flower crowns in interest, blue roses were Lyanna's favorite.

Both of his daughters took a bit after their aunt.

" I wanted to wear breeches but mother force me to wear a dress saying it was proper " Arya grumbled.

" You look beautiful Arya " Catelyn smiled glad that her younger daughter was looking proper for once.

" Father, why is Jon not sitting up here with us I mean he's one of us he should be up here," Lyarra said.

" Lya, he's a bastard it wouldn't be proper " Ned signed.

" He's one of us father he should be up here with us " Lyarra grumbled.

" Lya you know how your mother would feel about that " Ned signed.

" Can I sit next to Jon?" Arya asked looking at her father who nodded.

Arya rose from her seat and made her way toward the lower tables and sat down next to Jon.

" May I go as well? " Lyarra asked looking at her father with beaming eyes who smiled at her knowing he couldn't refuse his daughter's request and nodded

Lyarra got up from her seat and joined Arya and Jon down below at the lower tables, the trio of siblings laughing among one another.

Catelyn stared down at her daughters conversation with the bastard and looked over at her husband in disproval no matter what she did or say her daughters would have free will to do whatever they want.

She never understood why her two daughters couldn't just listen to her they were truly Ned's daughters they had the northern looks and the spirit of a wolf all of her children did but Lyarra and Arya were more so.

She had tried to get the two to become ladies but the two wouldn't listen, they would have to listen to her one day.

Meanwhile

Down below at the lower tables, As Lyarra was chatting with Theon and Jon she felt a tap on her shoulder she turned around and her eyes met with brown eyes she soon noticed it was Ramsay Snow Lord Bolton's illegality son.

" Hello " Lyarra greeted with a smile.

" My lady I must say you look dashing tonight " Ramsay smirked lifting her hand to his lips smooching it.

The young ice she-wolf yanked her hand back from his grasp, " Thank you ".

" I must say I was curious to hear that your father cast you aside and choose Sansa for my little brother you are his eldest daughter after all " Ramsay exclaimed.

" I'm happy for my sister she'll make a fine Lady Bolton one day " Lyarra answered.

" Still you would be suited more for it you are quite a beauty more beautiful than your sister some would say " Ramsay whispered in her ear while twirling the ends of her hair with his hand.

" My sister is very beautiful my lord she is the true beauty of the north " Lyarra corrected in truth she didn't believe herself to be beautiful she thought herself to be a curse forced to wear gloves the rest of her life to hide her abomination powers away.

" I feel you have mistaken my lady " Ramsay purred while petting her on the head gently.

" Can you stop touching me " Lyarra mumbled?

" Are you not comfortable my lady forgive me I only mean to compliment you " Ramsay said with a twisted smile as he grabbed hold of his hand with his squeezing it tightly.

" You're hurting me " Lyarra whimpered lowly as she tried to tear away from the snow boy's grasp but his hold only tightened.

" Don't interrupt me " Ramsay warned and twisted her hand harshly causing her to cry out a bit.

" Let her go " Jon snarled standing up and looking at Ramsay with anger in his eyes.

" Or what bastard " Ramsay challenged.

Lyarra soon yanked herself free from his hold and got up from the table making her way outside.

As Lyarra was walking outside the night was cold and windy just like she likes it, she soon made her way to the god's woods and sat under the weirwood tree.

She took off her gloves and noticed her hands were icy cold, " it wouldn't do any harm to practice " Lyarra thought she looked around making sure she was alone before beginning to play around with her magic.

She create a snowflake in her hand and began to stare at it in awe, how she longed for it to be winter again.

Winter was her favorite season she loved it when it would snow for days during the winter days she would practice her magic more and more with her father's approval.

Sometimes she felt amazing at what she could do other times afraid of hurting someone she loved.

She often felt fear at what would happen if anyone find out the truth, would they think her to be a monster, people accused of being witches were often burned at the stake.

Lyarra felt magic was special there was nothing wrong with it the only thing she hated was she couldn't control her magic easily she longed to find someone like her that could teach her control.

But she would never find anyone with freakish magical powers like her, for the young ice she-wolf would find herself wrong one day.

" Lya, Lya, Lya " a familiar voice called out, Lyarra slide back on her gloves quickly before standing up on alert.

As Lyarra was about to take out her dagger that she kept hidden under her boots, she sighed in relief when she saw that it was only Robb and Jon.

" What are you doing out here it's cold " Robb exclaimed before taking off his cloak and handing it to her.

" I just need some space and besides the cold doesn't bother me " Lyarra answered.

" Did Ramsay hurt you?" Jon asked in concern.

" No he didn't just twist my hand a bit there's something wrong with that boy " Lyarra muttered.

" We should inform father about this he has no right putting his hands on you " Robb growled at what he was hearing.

" Robb it's okay just leave it be " Lyarra said.

Robb nodded respecting his sister's wishes,

" We should head back inside before Lord Stark starts looking for us " Jon suggests.

" Father " Lyarra corrected him.

" Lya I'm a " Jon trailed off.

" You're our brother it doesn't matter what our mother says you are one of us," Robb said.

" We love you, you belong with us at the high table " Lyarra smiled.

" Guys, I " Jon was about to say but Robb cut him off.

" Come on," Robb said linking arms with him as well as Lyarra the trio went back inside and brought their brother to the high table much to their mother's protests but their father had let it slide.

It didn't matter what their mother said Jon was their brother and deserves to sit on the high tables with them.

Lyarra didn't care what her mother would say Jon was her brother and she wouldn't treat him differently just because they were half-siblings.

Born in Flames || Game of Thrones

OC x ?😏

-> Chapter XXIX ''Born in flames''

Chapter XXX ''First, you have to win with yourself''

Things weren't looking good for Robb, Jon, and Sansa, but weren't looking bad either. Everything depended on whether they could gain the support of the Northern houses and whether Jon would convince the Wildlings to fight for Winterfell.

Roose Bolton is dead, Ramsay has made himself Warden of the North and lives in this castle as if it were his. Stannis Baratheon is also dead, he died attacking the castle, just as Robb predicted. His army no longer existed, but at least there was an advantage to it - he would no longer be threatened or persuaded to Stannis' rights.

But nothing better awaits him now - he was just going with Sansa to, among other places, Bear Island to seek support from Lady Mormont. He will have to face a girl whose mother died because of his war. He can't run from this forever if he wants to try to take back the North. He saw what waits on the other side of the Wall, which gave him great motivation to retake Winterfell, as it was the only place they had any chance of defending themselves.

Although it would take some miracle for them to have enough men for this fight.

He would like to share Davos's - who stayed with them after Stannis' death - optimism that they will be able to gain enough support from the Northern houses and win against Ramsay. Really, he would like to be able to look at the world this way, but he can't do it anymore, and he tries to approach affairs realistically and not pessimistically.

On Bear Island, standing in front of the chamber where Lyanna Mormont was waiting for them, it was hard not to be drawn to unfortunate visions of the future. It is true that she agreed to receive them, and that was a plus, but it did not mean the success of their mission.

"Calm down." he heard Sansa's voice next to him and immediately looked at her. "Your hands are shaking. At most she refuses, it's not the end of the world."

I wish I could think like you.

"You can't pull people out of nowhere to fight, and no one wants to fight with the losing side." he replied rather dryly, although that was not his intention. He clasped his hands in front of him, because his nervousness was visible in their shaking, and such things should not be shown.

"From the letter Stannis showed you, it's obvious that someone would want to." he sighed quietly and didn't answer anymore.

The door opened and they finally stepped inside, stopping a few steps away from a long table where the Lady of Bear Island sat, flanked by two men, one of them a Maester.

Well, it's time to speak up.

"Lady Mormont." he greeted her, slightly bowing his head in a gesture of politeness.

"Welcome to Bear Island." Lyanna replied dispassionately, and there was an awkward silence. He didn't know where to start because he didn't want to get straight to the point. It would be a good idea to at least try to maintain the appearance that they didn't come here just for support...

"I remember the day you were born, my Lady." Sansa said, smiling gently. "You were named after our aunt Lyanna. She was said to be an extraordinary beauty. I'm sure you will be a beauty too."

"I doubt it. My mother was no beauty, but she was a warrior, a great warrior. She died fighting for you." she addressed the last sentence to Robb, while looking at him with her cold gaze.

He won't lie, it hurt, but he was prepared for it. It's high time to at least try to mend his ways. If he makes no attempt, he will prove unworthy of the sacrifice his people have made.

"I know. Likewise, I know that she was a special woman, she died during the fighting... My condolen-"

"Isn't there enough of this small talk already?" she interrupted him. He expected from that letter that this girl might have the character of her mother, but... He didn't expect that she would just interrupt him like that. "Why did you come here?"

"For a time, Stannis Baratheon stayed in Castle Black. Me too, that's where I went when I managed to make it out of the Red Wedding alive." he had to stop to swallow the lump in his throat when he was forced to brush up on that terrible day again. "He marched on Winterfell and died during the attack on the castle. But while he was still in the Castle Black, he sent ravens to the houses of the North asking for men, including you. You replied that-

"I remember perfectly well what I replied: 'Bear Island knows no King, but the King in the North, whose name is Stark.'" she reminded the content of the letter. "Are you still the King?"

"If the North still wants me as its King, then yes." he replied, holding her piercing gaze, although for a moment he felt like giving in to temptation and running away from this chamber and never coming back. Since she didn't respond, he decided to continue. "I made a mistake, I don't deny it. I will understand if I am not welcome here and will step aside for someone from my family to take my place. But now the priority should be to reclaim the North, Winterfell. Ramsay Bolton cannot keep it and keep in prison my and Sansa's brother, Rickon." his name also barely passed through his throat, because for a long time he thought that Theon had killed his brothers. "We've come to ask for your support, Lady Mormont. You have to understand that-"

"I understand that I am responsible for Bear Island and everyone who lives on it. Why would I sacrifice their lives and send them to someone else's war?"

This is not someone else's war - he wanted to say, but Davos was faster. Maybe that's even a good thing, because with this constant interruption, he might accidentally say something inappropriate, which would certainly not benefit their cause.

"If I may, my Lady." he stepped closer, standing less than half a step ahead of them. "I understand how you feel."

"I don't know you, ser...?" she started, waiting for him to introduce himself.

"Ser Davos, my Lady, of House Seaworth. You don't need to ask your Maester, my house is rather new." he added the second sentence hastily, seeing Lyanna leaning towards the Maester and whispering something.

"All right, Ser Davos Seaworth. How can you understand how I feel?"

"You never thought you'd be in this position. Responsible for so many lives at such a young age." these words sounded familiar to him... Even though he was older than Lyanna Mormont when he called the bannermen, and when his father was later killed and he had to take over his duties fully. "I also never thought I'd be in the position I'm in now. I was son of a crabber, then a smuggler. And now, in times of war, I speak to a Lady whose house can make a difference. But I'm here because this is not someone else's war, it's our war."

He paused and there was silence in the chamber. He probably expected Lady Mormont to want to comment on what he had said so far, but she only replied:

"Continue, Ser Davos."

"This man survived the Red Wedding, watched as his mother, wife, unborn child and lots of people were killed. Most people in his position wouldn't recover from something like that. And yet he tries to mend his ways while he is still alive and able to do so. Sansa Stark also went through hell, first with the Lannisters and then with the Boltons. And their half-brother Jon - who served as a squire to your uncle, Lord Commander, and who even gave him your family sword - died for saving the Wildlings from death. They understand that the real war will be between the living and the dead. And to win it, we need everyone who can fight and a place where we have a chance to defend ourselves: Winterfell." he turned and looked at Robb and Sansa. "If this isn't a family that should be supported, I don't know what family deserves that."

"Separately, we have no chance, and as long as Winterfell is Bolton's, the North will not be united. You want to protect your people - I understand, I want that too. We want to protect the entire North. But the four of us won't do it with just two thousand Wildlings." he added to what Davos said and everyone became quiet again.

The maester leaned towards her and started to say something, but she interrupted him with a wave of her hand. He felt like he was waiting for a judgement, because actually... In a way, he was. It all depended on how many people they could gather. His heart immediately sped up, even though he was trying to calm down.

"House Mormont have been loyal to the Starks for a thousand years. And that won't change today." after these words, he took a deep breath inwardly, and as soon as he leave this room, he will breathe aloud. He felt the stress finally begin to melt away from him. After all, he wasn't as ruined as he thought he was.

"Thank you, my Lady." he replied, he couldn't stop the slight smile on his face. "How many fighting men can we expect?"

Before she answered, she leaned towards the second man to her right, who had been sitting silently until now. Apparently he was responsible for defense. They whispered for a moment before Lyanna turned back to them.

"Sixty-two." well... It's not a large number, but there will be a few more of them... Besides, he couldn't expect much from one of the smaller houses. Also, most of the people died in his war, and then during the Ironborn attack, then under the Boltons... There weren't many soldiers left in the North. "Any man from Bear Island is worth ten from the mainland." she added this because they obviously must not have looked very happy...

"If they're half as ferocious as their Lady, the Boltons don't stand a chance." Davos replied, causing a soft smile to appear on Lyanna's lips. But it's good that he went with this line. Even though he clashed with him a bit when Stannis was at Castle Black.

On Bear Island, despite several difficulties, it was even easy for them. This lifted their spirits a bit, especially Robb's. The next goal was to reach an agreement with Robett Glover, who became the head of the family after the death of his brother, Galbart.

He agreed to receive them, so it was a good start, just like with Lyanna Mormont. Even though he felt better, his stomach felt tight again just before the meeting, and his nervousness kept him on edge. At least this time his hands weren't shaking and he didn't have to keep them clasped in front of him.

It quickly turned out that in this case his fear was justified, because they didn't even have time to explain why they came, before Robett interrupted them:

"The answer is no."

"Lord Glover, if you could just hear us-" he started, but again, he couldn't finish.

"I've heard enough." he interrupted him. His eyes were clearly filled with anger and the fact that he didn't want to talk to them any longer. "We just managed to retake the castle from the Ironborn, with the help of the Boltons. Do you want me to fight against them now? I could get skinned just for talking to you."

"That's already a good reason to defeat them." he noticed. "Boltons are traitors, because of them-"

"No. Not only because of them."

At first he wanted to deny it right away, to shout that it wasn't his fault that his own bannerman betrayed him and had allied with the enemy, but... He couldn't. He wasn't responsible for this betrayal, but he was responsible for several other things. He was a fool to try to make a deal with Walder Frey, but he was desperate, he needed men to continue the war. He was torn whether to return to the North and retake it from the Ironborn, or to stay and finish things with the Lannisters and avenge his father.

And it ended up that he would almost have to be avenged too.

He shouldn't have broken his word, it was his first and biggest mistake. He regretted it now, but then... Back then, he didn't think the consequences would ever catch up with him. First he was devastated by the news that his brothers had been killed - which had recently turned out to be untrue, thank the Gods - and then he felt happy in the arms of a crystal good woman.

He didn't want to abandon this peace, let it escape somewhere. Besides, it was also about honor. Not his, but Talisa's. He slept with her without marriage, he couldn't just leave her like that. He put her honor above his own and... She ended up even worse. She died.

There was one more thing that was bothering him... What happened to the Grey Wind? When he was running away, he had no time to look back and to this day he didn't know what happened to his direwolf. They slaughtered him there like a pig...? He hopes in his heart that he somehow managed to escape...

"How many other houses in the North have agreed to fight for you?" asked the Lord after several unbearable moments of silence.

"The Mormonts. We sent ravens to houses Manderly and-"

"I don't care about the ravens, I care about the real forces you have. You're asking me to join your army, I want to know what army it is."

What an irony of fate, just recently he was arguing with Stannis that he didn't have enough men to take Winterfell, and now he looks like he runs before he can walk.

"For now, the main force is the Wildlings, whose-" he didn't finish, but not because someone interrupted him, but he stopped when he heard Robett's laughter. No matter what else he had to say, it wouldn't change anything.

"So the rumors are true. I didn't dare believe them." he shook his head, losing his laugh and looked at both, Robb and Sansa. "I received you out of the respect I had for your father. Now I want you to leave. House Glover will not abandon its ancestral home to fight alongside the Wildlings." he talked about the people from beyond the Wall as if they weren't people, as if talking about them left a bad taste in his mouth.

He turned and moved towards the entrance to his 'ancestral home', apparently expecting them to leave. Robb knew it was a lost cause here and they had nothing to look for, and he wanted to turn and leave too, but Sansa was determined not to end the conversation just yet.

"I remind you that House Glover is pledged to House Stark. Sworn to answer when called upon." he didn't recognize his sister, but he was glad that she wasn't broken by what she had been through, that she still had the strength to fight. If it weren't for her and Jon, he certainly wouldn't have tried to take back the North. He never properly appreciated having them.

Robett stopped and stood still for a moment. Then he turned and walked closer to Sansa. As they stood next to each other, Robb could see that what the Lord was going to say would not be pleasant to anyone.

"Yes, my House has served the Starks for hundreds of years. We mourned your father when we learned of his death." here he moved his gaze to Robb, even though he was still standing in front of Sansa, who had lost a bit of the confidence she had just a moment ago. "When my brother was Lord of this castle, he answered your call and hailed you King in the North." he took a step to the side and stood in front of Robb, who at that moment again felt like running away or sinking into the ground. The guilt fell on his shoulders again and he could almost feel it pressing down on him, making him smaller and smaller, while Lord Glover grew bigger. "Where were you, King, when the Ironborn attacked this castle? When they threw my wife and children into the dungeons? When they harassed and killed our people? Taking up with a foreign whore." as he said this, Robb involuntarily squeezed the pocket in which he always kept with him the silver necklace that belonged to the stranger in his dream. "And then you lost yourself and those who followed you. I once served House Stark, but that House is dead."

He could have said nothing. He could have left it as it was and ended the conversation, hung his head and let the weight of guilt sink him to the mud on the ground. But Sansa can still be strong. For the North. If she can do it, so can he. They still have hope left, and it dies last.

"I know what I did." he started, surprising the Lord. "And I regret it. But your brother died at the Red Wedding so that I could live. You may question whether he should have sacrificed himself, but if you turn your back on me now, he died in vain."

It turned out that this was the end of the conversation, because Robett didn't answer anything. It was obvious that he was thinking hard about these words, but he didn't say anything. This time he was truly gone, the heavy wooden door closing behind him with a loud noise.

Back at camp and talking with Jon about everything, they argued about what to do. Two reasons clashed: Jon and Davos felt they had to attack now because they couldn't wait until they ran out of supplies. However, Robb and Sansa objected, saying that they needed more people. Only they didn't know where to get them.

Exactly, about this... He noticed Sansa writing a letter shortly after this discussion. He stood at the entrance to the tent for a moment before entering to ask who she was corresponding with.

* * *

Traveling on a dragon was definitely faster. When Visenya returned to Meereen, she spotted ships approaching the city and ready to attack. It seemed she returned just in time to take command and end the conflict as quickly as possible.

As she can see, a few weeks of her absence were enough for war to come to Meereen. She wonders if she had stayed in the city, would the Masters have dared to attack it...

The dragon landed on the roof of the pyramid where she resided. There wasn't enough room for the dragon anymore, because during its stay in the wild, Maelia had grown a lot - just like Drogon. But somehow she managed to land properly and tilt so that Visenya stepped off her back and onto the balcony.

As soon as she set foot on the balcony, the door opened and one of the Unsullied stood there, not anyone she knew. They were probably expecting an attack, not the Queen's return, not like this. The soldier, seeing her, immediately moved out of her way and knelt on one knee, bowing his head. So did the other Unsullied in the chamber when they saw who had returned. She felt a strong gust of wind on her back - probably Maelia and Drogon flying away - as she entered. She quickly looked around the room and saw someone was missing...

Varys.

She sighed quietly. She has a lot of work ahead of her here...

"Can you please leave me alone with Tyrion?" she asked. Everyone nodded and headed for the door. She stopped Missandei for a moment. "Could you run a bath for me?" the girl nodded, they squeezed hands and Missandei went with the rest.

She dreams of finally immersing herself in hot water and forgetting about everything around her... Although her situation has recently improved - she finally scored a hundred thousand cavalry, which is not a small thing - it was in Meereen that everything took a wrong turn.

When they were alone, she didn't speak. She had to think about what to say first, because she didn't expect to find the city in such a situation. Yes, she knew what the mood was like before her escape, and she had heard from Arthur and Daario how Meereen was doing after her escape, but no one had updated information, and it wasn't good. She went out onto the balcony and watched as the ships pulled up at the walls of Meereen and prepared to attack. After a while, the first bullets from the catapults flew towards the city, then she returned to the pyramid.

"I know, it doesn't seem like it, but despite temporary difficulties, the city is developing." she raised an eyebrow at Tyrion's statement, but still didn't say anything. She crossed her arms and waited for what else he had to tell her. Although the explosions outside interrupted him a bit. "We should take shelter." the constant silence on her part was not encouraging to continue talking, but he can't help that when he's stressed he starts talking a lot... "Meereen is strong. Trade is booming and people love you. Of course, not everyone, but... No ruler can count on the love of all his people. But the development of Meereen is the reason for this attack. Masters cannot allow Meereen to succeed, because if a city without slaves succeeds, it means that no one needs a Master."

"People love the Queen who fled her city?" she asked in a dispassionate tone, looking at Tyrion carefully.

Well, the city is still standing, so... I guess he didn't do that bad.

"The Red Priestesses have the gift of speech-"

"Just like you?" she couldn't help herself, she had to interrupt him. She tilted her head, and a smile finally appeared on her face.

"Yes... Although there are as many opinions as there are people."

"Where's Varys?" she asked what interested her from the moment she saw that he was not in the room. "He ran away as soon as I disappeared?"

"He sailed to Dorne, as far as I know. All for you, to gain allies-" he was interrupted by a bullet that broke the thin, parchment wall separating balcony and chamber, and fell inside. They instinctively covered themselves and turned away, even though nothing even flew towards them. "...and ships."

This is where her red light went on. He doesn't know that she has gained the support of the Dothraki, with his knowledge he shouldn't assume that they will need more ships.

"What happened to the Meereen fleet?" she asked. "Ninety-three ships, what happened to them?!" she couldn't control herself and got a little carried away, almost shouting at him.

But she needed every ship she could get, or she'd never be able to get her entire army to Westeros at once, and she'd rather avoid making multiple trips across the sea.

"It was burned." she closed her eyes and bit her lower lip a little, counting to ten in her head so as not to raise her voice again. "But it will be rebuilt quickly, and the Dornish will definitely support you, after all, you have the blood of not only Targaryens, but also Martells."

"We're going to need a lot more ships." she replied, sighing softly again. The constant explosions in the city didn't help her concentrate at all, and she had to act quickly. She couldn't let the citizens die because she couldn't act properly.

She's not a war strategist, and when she sails to Westeros, she'd prefer to rely on someone more experienced than her in this matter, but now... Now she has some rudimentary plan in her head.

"See if it's possible to start talks with Masters and extend the matter for a few days. At least three, maybe that's enough." she didn't know how far from Meereen Arthur and Daario were, along with all the Dothraki she had managed to gather under her, but she hoped they weren't sparing the horses. She will need an army larger than the Unsullied themselves, when in addition to the attack from the sea, there will also be a threat in the center of the city, Sons of the Harpy. Now she had no doubt that it was the Masters of Yunkai and perhaps Astapor who were paying them, and if they were attacking... Their 'army' in Meereen will do the same soon. Unless they've already attacked... "Use your gift of speech, and if they don't agree, tell them I invite them to talk it the Pyramid, or on some neutral ground, or whatever. I'm sure you'll come up with something. I have to free my dragons."

Tyrion, on the other hand, thought that Visenya had no plan yet and that was why she wanted him to buy some time. He wasn't going to question it, because he didn't have a better idea himself, and he was still thinking about what they could do in their situation.

She had been waiting for the dragons to be released from the moment she mounted Maelia in the arena. She wanted to finally remove the chains from their necks and set them free, even if they decided to never return to her. The thought of seeing her children brought a smile to her face, but she stopped at the door, stopped by Tyrion's voice.

"No." she was about to ask what he meant by that, but he explained it himself. "I did it not long after you went missing."

"And they didn't eat you?"

"Apparently, I really am your friend." she wanted to roll her eyes and tell him not to say such words, but she limited herself to the former.

"Then I'll go take a bath. Come to me as soon as you settle something." her hand was already on the door, but this time she stopped on her own. She wasn't sure if she should say what was already on the tip of her tongue, but she felt like he deserved it. "Tyrion?" she caught his attention as he reached for the wine. "Thank you. That you took care of the city, that citizens have a good life, that you took care of what is said and thought about me. The attack would have happened sooner or later anyway... And you never wanted anything bad for me. Once more: Thank you."

She didn't wait for his answer, she just quickly left the room and closed the door behind her.
