Lady Catelyn smiled as she looked around the room, her oldest smiling next to his new wife. She didn't approve of Talisa much because of Robb being betrothed at the time but all a mother cared about was her child's happiness. She was shaken out of her good mood when the band started to play "Rains of Castamere". She knew right from the start Lord Frey wouldn't just give up Robb not marring one of his daughters, and now there was nothing they could do. One of Lord Frey's guard bolted the door shut and people in the room started to notice what was going on. Lady Catelyn looked over to Lord Bolton next to her and he just smirked.
"Robb!" She screamed as she stood up and punched Lord Bolton.
Robb quickly looked to his wife to make sure she was okay but saw the man behind her smirk. The second Robb was about to leap forward to save his wife a crash came from one of the windows above. A falcon came soaring through the broken window straight for the man that was trying to kill Talisa and her unborn child.
"Arios, nabemagon!" Everyone heard a voice shout from the outside of the window. The falcon obeyed its master's command and swiftly attacked the man trying to kill the new Queen in the North. Robb looked to the window but covered his head and tried to protect Talisa from the falling broken glass.
"Grimm, mīsagon se dārys se dāria " The voice shouted again and a huge wolf, bigger than Grey Wind, came falling through the broken window and landed with a huge THUD on the ground. The wolf was a pitch black, blending in perfectly with the shadows of the room. He quickly moved Robb and Talisa behind him and was poised and ready to attack if anyone got too close to the royals of the North.
A hooded figure jumps out of the broken window and gently floats to the ground, unlike the massive wolf that still guarded the king and queen.
"My apologies, I did not hope to enter in such a way, but you forced my hand when you tried to kill the queen and her unborn child" Said a gentle and small voice behind the darkness of the hood.
Gasps went through the whole room as everyone turned to Robb and Talisa, still behind the wolf named Grimm.
"Robb?" Catelyn asked with tears in her eyes. He just slowly nods while still keeping his eyes on Frey, the hooded figure, and the wolf protecting him.
Suddenly a ear piercing howl was heard and the bolted door burst open to a wolf the Starks all knew very well and a bigger stark white wolf with grey paws. The blue eyes of the wolf almost looked like liquid ice, staring down everyone in the room before slowly walking to Grimm and taking the other wolfs place guarding the royals.
"Now Lord Frey, why were the "Rains of Castamere" playing at a wedding? Aren't weddings supposed to be joyous occasions?" The gentle voice said behind the hood, the giant black wolf making its way to the unknown figure.
"Not all weddings are joyous occasions." Wander Frey said shortly eyeing the cloaked figure that stopped his revenge on the Starks.
"Oh? Well where I am from, weddings are a celebration. A ceremony in front of the gods to prove your love. Is that not something to celebrate?" The figure started walking closer to the front of the room where Frey sat. His guards in the stands pointing their crossbows at the person moving towards their lord.
"I don't know where you come from Bitch, but you should head back there before I have your head!" Frey screamer standing but before he could do anything else the giant black wolf took a leap and tore Lord Frey's head clean from his body. The wolf licked his chops and walked back to his master.
"Now that we have taken care of that problem, if any of you would like to leave you may do so.." the voice started. "But I warn you Grimm and Skjöldolfr haven't had a hunt since we came beyond the Wall, they may not be able to hold back when they see their prey running."
The men paled at the thought of being chased down by wolves bigger than horses. They slowly put down their weapons and backed up a few steps from the Starks. Everyone turned toward the figure as the two wolves stopped on either side of it and laid down on the ground, still guarding and poised to attack if need be.
Gasps were heard across the room when the hood was taken down and revealed a young girl of no more than 16 with the whitest hair they had ever seen. Lady Catelyn was suddenly reminded of the Targaryen family's silver hair, although this girls was more like white cows milk than the silvery hair of the Targaryens. The girls eyes were a dark emerald green in one eye and the same icy blue of her wolfs in the other eye. She was a small girl, probably the same size as Arya even though the age difference.
The girl smiled at the royals that were now moving closer to her now that the threat was gone. Robb suddenly dropped down to one knee in front of the small girl. She just smiled even wider down to the man that was much bigger than her, even with him kneeling she wasn't much taller than him. He bowed his head and spoke clearly and with a loud voice.
"Thank you my lady, I owe you my life as well as my family's. Is there anything I can do to repay this debt." Robb said eternally grateful to the small girl for saving his mother and wife.
"Oh my little King, I do not require anything for payment. I did not do this because I wanted something in return. I simply did this because I know what would have happened if I didn't." She said smiling to the man in front of her. "You know not of what is to come little King, its best if you don't make anymore rash decisions" She said in a serious voice glancing at Talisa. Robb quickly moved Talisa behind him now warry that she too had come to kill them.
"Although the outcome of not making that decision….well lets just say you would have preferred the death here at what would have been called the Red Wedding" She said smiling again running her hands over the heads of the giant wolves next to her.
"Who are you" Lady Catelyn asked taking a step closer to the young girl.
"You can call me Neve" Neve said with another smile to the Lady of the North. "This is Grimm, Skjöldolfr, and Arios" Said falcon came flying from one of the beams on the ceiling, landing on the small girls shoulder. He was bigger than a normal falcon, most in the room didn't notice when he was saving the Queen, almost twice as big.
"If you don't want anything for repayment, what do you want?" Questioned the Queen, holding her stomach protectively.
"Peace" The girl simply said. "I know what is to come, your people call people who see glimpses of the future, Wargs, which would technically be accurate to describe me. I don't see glimpses of the future though." Neve said with a secret smile on her face.
"So you'll help us reclaim the North?" Asked Robb, still unsure of this girl. She easily commanded her animals to kill, she said she knows what is to come, and that she wanted peace. Must mean that she had come to save him and help get the North back.
"You do not own the North Robb Stark." Robb was terrified of the look she gave him, her eyes pierced through his soul, but then they turned back to the gentle warm eyes she had before. "Though one day you will be the King of the North…." She trailed off walking to Talisa.
Neve stopped right in front of the Queen of the North, smiling at her she held out her hand.
"May I?" The small girl asked with a look of excitement. She hadn't been around the warmth of a child in a long time, Neve wanted to bask in the warmth that was radiating around the woman.
Talisa glanced at her husband but nodded her head knowing Robb couldn't stop this girl. She girls eyes brightened up immediately and she moved forward to place her hand on the woman's stomach. A small light shined from the girls hand and the whole room was in shock. The light grew brighter and then slowly dimmed out. Robb looked toward his wife feeling helpless because he knew he would not be able to protect her should this little girl decide to attack them, but at the same time he trusted the small girl and was happy she was getting along with the love of his life.
"What did you do" Talisa questioned, nothing hurt and she didn't feel like she was in danger.
"Would like you like to know the gender?" Neve smiled knowing that most people did not know the gender until they gave birth.
Talisa looked to Robb with a wanting in her eyes. He moved next to her and put his arm around her shoulder. He looked to the small girl and gave her a gentle nod.
"Twins, boy and girl." She said smiling. Talisa gasped and hugged Robb as tight as she could. Twins! She couldn't believe they were having twins! A little lord and lady to help rule the North in the years to come.
"Now that we have been introduced and I have shown you no harm, would you like to know why I specifically came here?" Neve looked to everyone in the room, they still looked weary of her but they would learn. "Maybe we should make sure your soldiers outside are okay. I didn't look around much when I walked in."
I hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter of my new story. I just finished watching GOT so I have many ideas. Now I know from the beginning it seems like Neve is a mary-sue character with all knowing power that will save them all, but this is not what I am trying to convey. When watching the show there were many things I liked and many I didnt. So this story is basically how I would have liked the story to go plus a new character. Neve basically comes from the Age of Men and Children of the forest and has been in the background of the world since the first Targaryen stepped foot in Westeros, but didnt do anything until now because of the rules she was taught.
Hopefully you all like her and the story! Feedback is always welcomed! I know my grammar is probably horrible and my spelling but I am doing this myself during my spare time, which isnt much.
