    Summary

    “Ask your question, Daenerys,” Stannis said.

    Daenerys took a breath, and asked the question that had plagued her ever since leaving King’s Landing. “Your brother, the king, only lost his betrothed, and he hates me. Eddard Stark lost over half his family because of mine, and yet he will welcome me as his kin?” Her voice rose at the last, as she was no longer able to hide her disbelief, her fear.

    “Ned Stark is a man of honor,” Stannis said. “He has no interest in avenging his family by tormenting you.” Unlike the king, neither of them said aloud.

    (In a world where Viserys Targaryen escaped Westeros without his mother or sister, Daenerys Targaryen grows up as the ward of Stannis Baratheon, living at the mercy of the Great Houses that brought about the downfall of her family.)

    Summary

    Queen in the North Sansa Stark, first of her name, passes away after a long and peaceful life of ruling. She's at peace, knowing her eldest son will watch over their kingdom after her.

    Yet, she opens her eyes again. But this time, she's Helaena Targaryen, the tragic sister-wife of Aegon II Targaryen, mere years before the beginning of the Dance of the Dragons. Armed with her knowledge of history and her wits, she has no choice but to fight for the faction she's been born into, for war is inevitable. She might be a dragon in this lifetime, but she was born a wolf and only a united pack can survive winter.

    Note: The Helaena ship has finally been decided, it will be a happy Aegon/Helaena.

    Summary

    The night of Laena Velaryon's funeral does not go as planned. No, not at all. An eye is lost and a dragon is claimed. But nobody thought King Viserys I Targaryen would make his Hightower Queen another Ceryse.

    OR

    Daemon just wanted to get through his dear Laena's funeral and fly off to Pentos with his children. But Viserys just couldn't keep his brood under control. In hindsight, he really needs to learn how to control his laughter.

    Summary

    Princess Aerea Targaryen, the eldest daughter of Prince Jaehaerys and Princess Shaera, granddaughter of Aegon the Unlikely, has lost her family in the Tragedy at Summerhall. How will Westeros react to having a Queen upon the Iron Throne? Is Aerea set for madness or greatness? She is cunning and with a hunger for power, but nothing rivaled her vanity and the size of her ego. Regardless of that, no one ever doubted the love she had for her husband.

    Lord Tywin Lannister seized the opportunity of advancing his House's legacy by courting the future Queen of Westeros. He fought to bring fear and respect for the Lannister name, now being the Consort to the ruling Queen. He had to rule the Seven Kingdoms, stop rebellions, fight the tide of unrest amongst lords and clean up after Aerea's uncontrollable temper. He has to not only straighten the realm but also protect the temperamental wife he adores.

    Who is the cursed and who is the blessed?

    Summary

    In 97 AC, Daemon Targaryen weds Alicent Hightower. How can that change the course of history?

    What follows is an alternate Dance of Dragons, between Daemon Targaryen and Rhaenyra Targaryen. The factions have shifted, alliances have brought half of the realm together for the Reds and the Rogue Prince is known by the name of "King of the Hightower". Will the Blacks stand any chance?

    When dragons dance, the realm bleeds.
