Prologue
Sansa's History
Sansa is the eldest daughter and second child of Lady Catelyn and Lord Eddard Stark, head of House Stark and Warden of the North. She was born and raised at Winterfell. In her eleven years, she learns the duties of a noble daughter and is tutored by septa Mordane in the traditional womanly arts. Sansa has a younger sister Arya. She has an older brother, Robb, and two younger brothers, Bran and Rickon. She has a bastard half-brother, Jon Snow.
With her father's appointment as Hand of the King, Sansa is delighted at the prospect of life at court in King's Landing and is thrilled by her betrothal to the handsome Prince Joffrey. On their journey to the capital, Joffrey courts Sansa at his mother's insistence. The two are walking together when they come upon her sister Arya playing at swords with the boy Mycah. Joffrey draws his sword and threatens Mycah, but Arya fights with him; her direwolf Nymeria disarms and superficially wounds him.
Later recounting the tale to King Robert, Arya tells the truth while Joffrey lies, saying that Mycah, Arya, and Nymeria attacked him without provocation. Sansa, not wishing to betray her future husband, lies and refuses to verify either story, pleading that she doesn't remember. Cersi Lannister uses the opportunity to insist that the direwolf that attacked her son be killed. Arya, having anticipated this, had driven Nymeria away; as a result, to assuage the Queen, Sansa's direwolf Lady is killed instead. In King's Landing, Sansa feuds with her sister, placing the majority of the blame on Arya for her direwolf's death. She remains infatuated with Joffrey, largely overlooking his violent mood swings, and develops a close relationship with Queen Cersei as well. Attending the Tourney celebrating her father's appointment as Hand, she finds many of her notions of knightly valor and chivalry reinforced, seeing the events as worthy of one of her favored stories. She also develops a crush on Loras Tyrell, the The Knight of Flowers; when he gives her a red rose, she is certain she is living in a romantic song.
After her father discovers the truth of Joffrey's parentage and tells his daughters that he is returning them to Winterfell, Sansa, in an act of defiance, runs to the Queen and tells her of her father's plans, pleading that she might be allowed to stay and marry Joffrey. Her doing so unwittingly aids Cersei's plot against her father. After Lord Eddard's arrest, Sansa is forced to call her father a traitor. She pleads in front of the king and his retainers for mercy. Joffrey, now King after Robert's death, promises to be merciful, but on the steps of Baelor's sept orders Eddard's execution as Sansa helplessly looks on. Even after Eddard's beheading, Cersei declares that Joffrey should still be married to Sansa upon her flowering. Sansa, now horrified at the prospect and only wanting to return home, nevertheless has no choice but to remain in Kings Landing during the deteriorating situation, as a hostage, and denounce her father and brother as traitors. Now effectively a hostage in the Red Keep, Sansa armors herself in her lady's courtesies as she dutifully goes through the motions of denouncing her family as traitors and pleading to them for peace.
Joffrey frequently orders her to be beaten by his Kingsguard as punishment for actions taken by her brother Robb in his rebellion. On one occasion he orders her to be stripped naked at court, and on another he shows her her father's head, which has been placed on a spike on the Red Keep. This prompts her to consider an attempt to kill him, but the action is prevented by Sandor, who sees her intention and subtly stops her.
At a tournament celebrating Joffrey's name day, at which there is only a small crowd and few competitors, she realises she has lost her romantic notions about knightly and courtly love. At the tourney, a knight by the name of Ser Dontos Hollard disgraces himself by showing up too drunk to compete. Joffrey decides that he should be killed, causing a horrified Sansa to thoughtlessly speak out. Before Joffrey can lash out at her for contradicting him, Sansa makes up a convincing lie which Sandor Clegane backs up; Sansa also pleads successfully with the king to spare Dontos. A placated Joffrey instead merely strips him of his knighthood and makes him a court fool, as Sansa suggested.
When Tyrion Lannister arrives he treats her with surprising kindness, and his arrival in the city and assumption of the position of acting Hand of the King sees an end to the more overt abuses directed at Sansa. Sansa also develops a unique relationship with Sandor, who despite his brusque words and hideous demeanor treats her gently and refuses to beat her at Joffrey's command. He privately mocks her for her naive nature but also displays sympathy for her predicament. Sandor saves her life during the riot of Kings Landing.
Sansa experiences her first flowering, making her officially a woman. With Shae's help she tries to hide it, but Sandor is standing in the room when Shae returns from threatening the servant girl who spotted the blood on Sansa's bed. With the threat of Stannis Baratheon approaching the city prepares for war. It is through Tyrion's ingenuity that the city is able to hold out against Stannis. During the fighting Sandor abandons Joffrey and offers to take Sansa with him, but she refuses a mistake she regrets later.
When Tywin Lannister arrives with the Tyrell forces the battle is won. Sansa is relieved when Joffrey favors a match with Margaery Tyrell over her. But her hopes are dashed as many men pursue her as the key to north and Peter Baelish reveals that the King will not allow her to leave Kings Landing. The Tyrells and the Lannisters plot to use Sansa for their own benefits and to Sansa's horror she must wed Tyrion Lannister the imp.
Chapter 1. The Vision
Shae tries to comfort Sansa, but there is no comfort when a young woman like Sansa so delicate in the eyes of those around her. Sansa has just received word that her mother and brother along with the rest of his army are dead. She had hoped in heart that Robb would come to her rescue, but there was no one left. Her brothers Rickon and Bran were too young to raise an army and take rule of Winterfell. And only the gods knew where Arya was.
"IIfly" She couldn't finish the statement as her emotions took hold once again and she lay across the bed.
"Who is Jon?" Shae asked hovering over her friend, but Sansa would not be comforted. Shae waited until Sansa fell asleep. Then she left, when she exited the room Tyrion and Bronn are waiting. "She is sleeping" Tyrion says to Bronn as he follows Shae up the hall.
Sansa has fallen asleep, "SANSA!"
She jumps up when she hears her name, "Father is that you?" She heard a voice that sounded like her father Eddard Stark. There was a creaking sound and the door to her suit was open. She slowly gets up, "Hello!" Fear took her heart as she had often caught Joffrey staring at her as if she was something to eat.
"SANSA!"
"Father!" Sansa ran from her room up the hall. She ran until she found herself in the throne room which was dimly lit. She gasped and ran across the floor because on the throne was her father Eddard Stark. "Father!" He would not move from the throne when she tried to hug him. "Am I dreaming?" She asked.
"You know the answer to that question?" A tear slid down her cheek and he wiped it away, "Father I am sorry"
He shook his head, "I was the foolYou are stronger than you know"
Sansa started crying, "But I'm afraid!"
He smiled as only a father could to his daughter, "So am I!"
"You are a great warriorYou are a woman of the North" Beside the throne was her mother Catelyn, her aunt Lyssa, Robb and his wolf and Lady. "all you have to do is look. Use your instincts and follow your heart." He held his arms out for a hug. Sansa fell into his arms and closed her eyes.
"I can show you how to get revenge." A rough voice.
Sansa backed away, because her father had been replaced by a tall man with White hair. "Who are you?"
"I am known by many names. Prince of theivesThe Lone Dragon"
Sansa shook her head, I have never heard that name before."
"Few haveI was sent into exile for murdering my father's Dragon"
Arya looks out over the sea as hundreds of ships chase Daeven's fleet across the sea, "Who are they?"
"Mercenaries and pirates hired by the Iron Bank of Braavos" When they reach the upper deck of the ship they aren't on the ship Sansa and Daeven are back in the throne room. "Its hidden here you knowYou could use it to buy revenge against the Lannisters and all your enemiesI shall start you on your path! Go to the archives and look up my nameI saw my father, my mother, my brother Robb, my aunt, and my Dire Wolf Lady" Sansa's gut rose up and she stopped herself, "I don't wish to talk about it" Shae replied with a grunt. "You have been acting weird ever since Lord Tyrion revealed that he and I must marry"
Despite Shae's denial Sansa felt she was hiding something, but she did not push the issue. She had other concerns, like the approaching wedding night and giving her body over to Tyrion Lannister. As the day quickly approached images from the dream came to Sansa and she wondered was that a vision or a dream.
