*Before you read, let me tell you that I don't own Game of Thrones nor do I own any characters from ASOIAF. And I am not GRR Martin so expect me to go OOC with some characters. I don't and never will take any credit for anything based on ASOIAF. I just write fanfiction. Knowing that GRR Martin hates fanfiction, I will say this again, I don't make any sort of profit nor do I take credit for the story.

Thank you!

*I want to write an AU of Game of Thrones of what if Lyanna lives(I know many people did this but I like the idea)

*Robert legitimate his bastards(Yes, all his bastards... and Jon Snow). I don't know all his bastards and it's been a long time since I read the books.

*What if Robert came in after Ned and Reed killed Arthur Dayne

*It will be a crossover(Fire Emblem) but it won't be heavily focused much. Just political stuff, mostly Westeros and Essos. Crossover? Fire Emblem which kinda never finish the prequels.

*I might not know what would happen if Robert married Lyanna. It might not be like Robert and Cersei where he goes to abusing husband mode since he always hated Cersei. I think he might be a better husband to her than he was with Cersei but he would never stop whoring and other such but it might be like less than how much he did it while being married to Cersei.

Overall, do I think it would be a happy marriage? Nah, but I don't think it would be a sad one. It'll be like a marriage where a man is like "I'm the king of this house and that's how it goes." or something like that. Not going into details with it. Just think that Robert will try to be faithful.

It might look like a happy story but... I don't know. A lot of stuff I have to think about like for example:

Execution of Ned Stark

The Red Wedding(Going to happen but might be a different character like an OC or Robb Stark(Mostly be an OC or Robb? haha I'm going to be evl about this.))

Blackfish(Come on, he didn't die in the books)

Sansa's Rape/Jeyne Poole Rape(One of them)

Direwolves... I don't want to think about it. Might kill 0, or 1, or 2, or 3. Maybe Ghost will get killed(Kidding)

Theon Greyjoy's betrayal

Joffrey(Maybe another usurper after Robert. Trying to get the War of the Five Kings on. We'll wait after this chapter.)

Barristan Selmy(No clue how I'm going to do him. Either leave and join Daenerys or go and fight for one of the 'children' of Robert)

Karstark(Someone is replacing him as the one to kill the two Lannister boys)

I might not go into it. Might just wing the whole thing and give straight to

Prologue

Tower of Joy

After Ned and Howland Reed killed the Kingsguards, Gerold Hightower, Oswell Whent, and Arthur Dayne, Ned runs up to the Tower of Joy. Every step rushes through the stairs at the same time as the horns sounded outside. Ned knows what horn it belongs to. The horns of Storm's End, meaning that Robert Baratheon is heading towards the way to the tower with an army. Ned wanted to meet with his friend but he doesn't have time to go to greet.

He has to see who's in that tower.

It might be Lyanna, his sister, who was believed to be kidnapped and raped by Rhaegar Targeryan, the most beautiful man in Westeros. Every girl says that he was the most beautiful man in the world, even Cersei of the infamous House Lannister thought of him to be her equal.

As Ned got to the top of the tower, he looks at the door to his right and pushes it open. He looks around and see three maidans in the room. Two are rushing, preparing to escape from the wrath of Robert Baratheon while the other one is in a bed. A bed covered in blood.

"Ned?" Ned's eyes widen as he rushes towards the woman who is laying in the bed of blood.

"Lyanna," Ned drops his steel sword on the footboard and kneel down to look at Lyanna.

"Is that you?" Lyanna asks. "Is that really you?"

Ned looks and scans over the bed and holds her hand until he hears heavy thumping steps outside the door. They look and to see Robert Baratheon enters the room, much to Lyanna's fear.

With Robert is the elderly Jon Arryn of the Vale and a man from far away lands. A land that they've called Daein or the Daeinian Empire who had joined the war after Aerys killed two senators who were sent as diplomats, trying to calm him and reestablish trade and try to speak peace with the rebels due to trade routes raided by the Targeryans. With them at the side of Robert Baratheon, nothing in Dorne nor the Reach or the Lannisters in fear could resist their fury nor could they fight back against the legendary fighting powress of the legions that were fighting at Robert's side.

The man is wearing a light blade armor with silk robes around him. He is young yet, seemingly slightly older than both Ned and Robert. Not as strong as Robert or Ned but he is skill with a sword is said to be legendary with finesse skill and quick reflexes. His strength lies in his knowledge of tactics and strategies in battle. He is more like a scholar than a soldier as his words could calm even the angriest beast of Robert as he had done so many times in the war. He is of slender build and medium height. His skin shows his origin to be light brownish with dark black hair. His eyes are dark and a narrow nose. His face and head are long. His name is Germanicus Gracchus Crassus.

"Lyanna..." Robert's rage cools as he drops his warhammer as well as removing his helmet. He rushes to her side, merely push Ned so that he could see her. Lyanna is horrified of the sight of him, how she was supposed to be married to him.

Lyanna didn't reply to him. Why?

It was then Robert hear a cry from one of the maiden's arm. He turns around and see something that managed to bring the rage back into him. Lyanna plead to Robert, "Robert, please!"

Robert didn't listen and grab his warhammer before making his way to the baby in the arms of Wyalla. He growls every moment the baby cries as he knows well that it doesn't belong to him.

"Robert! Someone stop him!" Lyanna screams as she feels too powerless to stand out of her bed. The fever she have is too severe that she might not have time to live and Robert knows that.

Ned rushes and grabs Robert from the behind but he couldn't hold him still. "Let go, Ned! This baby is the nothing but an abomination! He is the product of rape and killed my beloved! Let go!"

"Robert, you have to stop. If you truly love Lyanna as you claim then you would stop and listen," Robert stops trying to approach the baby. He loosens up and turns around as Lyanna cries out, "Please, spare him. He's my son. Whatever you do, let him live."

Robert sighs and clenches around his hammer, thinking about going back and bash the baby to another world to his father. The father he killed in the Trident.

"Robert," Germanicus open his mouth, "you did sleep around while you were betrothed to her. Perhaps you can call this payback that you were being unfaithful to her. And," Germanicus looks back and shouts, "Get a damn priest in here!"

Robert looks puzzled then back at Lyanna who seemingly nodded to him. She nodded in order to let Robert understand how it felt being cheated on. "What do you mean? What are you saying, Daeinian?"

"She ran away with Rhaegar willingly. Why would she marry you if you'll keep whoring around? Now the war is over and your goal of bringing Lyanna back, you need to change for the better, not for yourself but for her. I must suggest, take her son in and raise him as your own." Germanicus suggested and the priest came in with a rod in order to heal.

"What are you doing?" Robert shouts.

"Let them be. She'll be fine. The priest will heal her. Her fever will be gone for a day. What about the boy? Will you not adopt the boy and raise him as your own?" Germanicus asks.

Lyanna looks at Robert with some hope for some changes. Germanicus' words hit him and moved him as he drops his warhammer and made it to the baby boy. He takes a look at him and held him. If this is what Lyanna pleaded for him to do, he will take this boy under his wing and call him a Baratheon.

Jon Baratheon.


7 years later, Winterfell

After the war is over, Robert had granted free trade and secure an alliance with the Daeinian Empire. He allowed them some piece of land where they can build towns and ports and flourish it with trade as well as building a city for Germanicus but later, Daeinian Empire had begin colonizing the free cities of Braavos, Lys, Lorath, and the other free cities who had claim them as their overlords with limited bloodshed. One thing they couldn't do is spread their religion, culture, and other sorts of influences excluding food and clothes within Westeros excluding their own land. It's not expansion they want but to find and kill the Targaryen children, whose father was a man who used to have great relations until he burned every single diplomat or senator Daein send to negotiate. The problem with finding them within Essos is that how big each of the Free Cities are and their limited power to manage the cities as Daein only has the power to collect taxes, recruit, and offer protection. Increasing military presence will hinder their rule over them and with no knowledge of their appearances forced all Daeinians to give up all efforts finding the Targaryen children.

With the advice of Jon Arryn, his Hand, he has managed to help make peace with the other houses that had fought against them. With Ned persuading him, Robert technically bring Mya Stone, Bella, and Gendry Waters in and have them legitimated. Lyanna and Robert marriage was rocky as he was whoring but a little bit as he was found out to have another bastard Edric Storm who has been legitimated after Renly sent him to King's Landing after Stannis send him to Storm's End, revealing to Lyanna of Robert's continuously whoring which they've argue about.

Before Edric Storm was born, Lyanna gave birth to twins, girl of black hair and gray eyes while a boy with dark brown hair and blue eyes. The girl's name is Jeyla and the boy name is Lanner.

In Winterfell, a feast was held and those who had joined the rebels who fought against the Mad King. North, Riverlands, Vale, Stormslands, and Daein appear in the feast. What a great time the guests were having in Ned Stark's hall as they drink and chat one another.

The Stormlands, Riverlands, and the Vale in their finest robes they can wear to a party. The North in their fine leather and wooly coats. Germanicus and two senators in black silky robes with some who came with them came in with armor. Some are from vessel states of Daein while others are from the mainland. Vessel states like the Kuei Ryu, stocky and squat, bright yellow skin, straight black hair, and thiner eyes than most. The Kuei Ryuns wear lamellar armor of metal links that resemble the words in their language "山". The Daeinians from the mainland wear black armor, made out of high-quality steel and silver, with the symbol of their banners on the front of the chest plate. Compared to their allies, the Daeinians and their vessel states are less socialize about many stuff or have less stuff to talk about, rarely have any sense of fun. Robert compares most of them to be like his brother, Stannis Baratheon.

Children dancing and the men drinking. The women trade gossip with each other and serving food and wine to the men.

"Eddard, Robert, It's been some time since I've seen you. 7 years since the defeat of the Targeryans." Germanicus holding a cup of wine with Ned and Robert.

"Welcome, Senator Germanicus." Ned shook hands with the scholar before the scholar-soldier shook hands with Robert.

"Everything changes as I see it. Good thing we allow new blood to rule the Iron Throne. Even without my help, you would still win but lose many more men." The Daeinian says, speaking true of what happened with them joining late but with good results like destroying the Tyrell army in Storm's End and crippling Dorne with steel in a Daeinian fist.

"Oh shut up! You know we would do better without your help fool. And your lazy ass missed the war against the Greyjoys. And gods, what a war." Robert jokingly calls out which results a laugh from the Daeinian.

"And where is your wife? Why didn't you bring her?" Robert asks.

"My wife is not here. She is needed to take care of things back home like managing in my steed. What can I say is that she doesn't like parties nor can I force her to come. In Daein, we treat our women as our equals. In case if you ask about my children, they are in school in the mainland. And speaking of the Greyjoys, you never ask of my men to help you but ask us to help rebuild the lands savaged by the Ironborn. If we are to fight, we would have controlled the Iron Island but what interest does Daein have if the terms of our alliance states that we are not supposed to spread our influence to your lands?" Germanicus replies. Schools in Daein are rough and harsh as boys are trained to prepare for military life as well as learning to serve the empire in a citizen soldier life. Girls are mostly to learn to serve community and have options to do military education in schools. Daein had never help against the Iron Islands but if they did, they would have destroyed them but mustering a fleet takes a long time and sailing from the mainland will take days to arrive.

The three laughs and continue their conversations about war and stories which Robert jokingly trade insults with Germanicus who kept laughing them off. Germanicus who heard about Ned's daughter, Sansa Stark, a beauty for her age that he heard. Germanicus suggest that one of his sons will marry her. Ned declines and waves the suggestion out due to the fact that he never seen Germanicus' son nor has he ever heard of him. It's because Germanicus never speak of his children much as he barely spent any time with his children due to them spending their education in the mainland. What he describes is that his son that he suggested is around Robb's age.

Speaking of Robb, he is sitting with Theon and Jon as they chat about how they plan to be friends forever. Robb is the next in line to rule Winterfell while Theon at the Iron Islands and Jon was suggested to rule the Iron Throne someday. But that is not the case as he told both his mother and Robert that he doesn't want to rule the Iron Throne. Actually, to Robert and Lyanna's dismay, Gendry or any of Robert bastards have no interest to rule. Jon wants to join either the Kingsguard or go to fight the wildling invaders at the wall. Gendry wants to be a blacksmith as it's his dream to forge weapons and armor like a bull helmet he created a year ago. The others just feel discomfort sitting on the throne. The only person that might be the heir will be Lanner who is said to be like Robert when he was young; fun and rowdy even for his age of 7.

Across from them are the noble houses of Stark drinking and their children eating. Girls were talked to charm Robb Stark by their fathers or the Lord of their House. Mainly Karstark who are considered to be one of the greatest houses in the North are more ambitious into have Alys Karstark to try to make a match with Robb. Some say that the Manderlys have the greatest chance to wed to the Starks due to their wealth and influence.

"So, I wonder what is it like to fight Daein in its full might. I feel kinda insulted when you held back in Robert's Rebellion. What would a war be like?" Robert said after he finished a drink. Ned is worried of what will happen when Robert blur out on a scenario of them fighting an ally they know so little about.

Germanicus cock an eyebrow and replies, "You have a lot to drink. Maybe you should..."

"Bah," Robert waves his unfinished sentence off as he continues, "Quit being boring and antisocial. Tell me about it, or give me some war stories. Your emperor Soren or High Prince Einion, I heard them to be some of the best in the world like Soren defeated a goddess and Einion defeated a terrible dragon... Grima, is it? And your generals... Ike, Zelgius... Sounds overexaggerating that these people are the most powerful people in the universe. Myths I see. Over billion of soldiers, ha!"

Germanicus sigh and shook his head, "I'm afraid these events were true. Einion beating Grima was like 10 years ago. If you were to face us in our full might, I don't think you would be able to hold us in a month. Our military force isn't overexaggerating. We have that number of professionals or maybe more. Every men dedicate their services to the Emperor, the Senate, the Church, and to the nation. We begin our military training and academic education since the age of 5. I say, we would have conquered everything as we are the greatest military force in the world."

Robert growls at the fact that he's been corrected. How he admires the Daeinians in their military prowess. Hearing of griffins and dragons are used in war seems to be unbelievable to him. Westeros never see them in battle but Robert has hopes of seeing anything about it.

Ned wonders if Germanicus is bullshitting to scare them or he's telling the truth. Truth be told that time will tell and look to a table where his son normally sits and see that he's not there. Only to see Jon and Theon looking to one direction which he could an eye of Robb dancing with a young girl. A girl around Robb's height, skinny and coltish with brown hair. Blue eyes and long face which Ned recognize, "Karstark..."

For some years, many Lords in the North tries to get their daughters to try to make a match for Robb.

Well, why wouldn't they try? Marrying into the most powerful house in the North is every Northerner lord opportunity like Roose Bolton secretly tried to get his son to betroth to Sansa but Ned waves that off due to his mistrust of the Boltons.

Ned caught Rickard Karstark, Lord of Karhold, eyeing on Robb and Alys. He was instructing her how to dance with his arms out and motion his hands in circles, resulting Alys to twirl around with Robb holding her hand.

Not only did it caught Ned eyes, it also caught the eyes of the other Northern lords who were instructing their daughters to dance in turns with the son of the Warden of the North.

"You danced beautifully," Robb spoke softly before ending their dance.

Alys' face flush red and her stomach dropped. She smiles at him then look at Rickard who hopes of a match being made.

"Thank you, my Lord," she bows her head before going back to her table where all the Karstarks sit.


Five years later, King's Landing

A tragic event happened upon Westeros as Lyanna, the queen had died. A blow to Robert from the inside as he held her to his arms after he heard her last plea which was, 'Promise me you will take care of our children.'

The man Robert was before to Lyanna is all gone. What makes everything worse for him is another marriage is suggested upon him. Cersei Lannister, daughter of the mighty Tywin Lannister, was shipped to King's Landing to marry Robert. Robert, in disgust, grudgingly listens to Jon Arryn's advice of Robert needing Tywin as a powerful ally. Jon remembers the changes that happened to his adopted father, not as a fun father he remembers, but as a person himself. Despite his marriage to his 'adopted' daughter and new addition to the family like Joffrey Lannister along with Myrcella and Tommen.

Even with the marriage, Robert neglects the Lannister children, despising on their golden hair and the pride of Tywin. Robert rather hangs with his daughters than any of the Lannister kids. Why should he take care of them? They don't belong to him and he certainly hates Cersei since their marriage is nothing to know except they despise each other.

Cersei hates Robert due to him killing Rhaegar Targeryan while Robert hates Cersei due to her being untrustworthy even she forced him to make Joffrey the heir as well as forcing Robert to bring other Lannisters to the court, surrounding him.

The children of Robert, even Jon, managed to get along with Tommen and Myrcella but Joffrey is too difficult and to Robert, it's threatening as Cersei has a history of manipulating and threatening his children.

"Shut it woman!" Robert backhand Cersei for something that he can't tolerate. First she forced him to surround himself with her family and now she had threatens Jon, the boy who he adopted before his marriage to Lyanna. Not only Jon but also Mya, Gendry, and his children with Lyanna were threatened.

Cersei says nothing and after she got hit, she walks away with Robert being suspicious of her motives. What can he do is something that he must do.

"Jon Arryn!" Robert called.

"Your Grace?" Jon replies which Robert gives him papers for him to write. He's planning something for the safety of all of his children excluding Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen safety.

"I need help with something."

"What is it?" Jon asks.

"I need you to transport all my children to different various places. Jon to live with Stark in the North. Mya live with you in the Vale. Gendry and Edric to my brothers either in Storm's End or Dragonstone. Bella to be fostered by Hoster Tully. Jeyla and Lanner to be taken care of by Germanicus. Before you do that, I want you to write letters for you to give to each of these people." Robert regrets doing this and because of the promise he made to Lyanna, he has no choice but to break his word only for their safety.


I kinda have a rough time trying to write Robert Baratheon. All I know is that he whores and drinks and shits. All I know is that he's my favorite character because he trolls too much. I have to say that writing him with Lyanna alive is pretty much everybody's opinion unless you're GRR Martin.

Overall in the end which I admit is bad writing on my part for this one. Next chapter will get better hopefully since it will take place at the start of the series and hey, it's just a prologue or introduction. Barely anything too exciting.

This entire chapter is technically just an introduction of what's happening. No, this story will not heavily focus on my OCs or any much of my OCs that much unless I feel like it's needed. I bet people are thinking that my OC is the heir to the Iron Throne. He was until he doesn't want it, nobody wanted to rule so the line of succession goes to Stannis. The male OC is like a copy of Robert while the female one is more like Lyanna.

Yes, I decided a Robb and Alys Karstark pairing. If you don't know who Alys Karstark is then I think it's best to know that she's not an OC. She's a book character and if can't picture her, then search her up. I'm not great at describing appearances.

I'll do Jon and Ygritte because of their actor/actress relationship. And I'm kinda in love with the pair.

I'm also going to follow the game as well. The book? No so much since I forget almost everything, it's been a long time since I read any of the books. Even the Dance with Dragons, I forgot what went on.

I understand people rejects OCs but bear with me and let me tell you that, and sorry to repeat it, they will not be heavily focus unless maybe an important character like the trueborns of Robert and Lyanna. Get ready, they are going to be focus but not as much as the main characters but they will be more focused than any minor ocs.
