History and Princess Stormborn
Asshai, Essos
James Peverell was a very good friend of the crown prince of the Westeros Rhaegar Targaryen, when Rhaegar father the king Aerys II Targaryen betrothed Rhaegar to princess Elia Martell of Dorne. Arthur Dayne commander of the kings guard became god friends with both James and Rhaegar, this way James met Arthur's twin sister Lily Dayne and both of them fell in love with each other when they met for the first time. Very few people knew about James true origin and identity as the prince of Asshai since most have heard Rhaegar calling James by his nick name Prongs, James parents died making James the king of Asshai, after a couple of months James married Lily Dayne making her the Queen of Asshai.
To everyone else all was well but James and Arthur knew that Rhaegar and Elia were married but there was no love between them, Elia and Rhaegar respected each other greatly but they never came to love each other, they even had a daughter princess Rhaenys. Then came the Tourney of Harrenhal, Rhaegar fell in love with the feisty she wolf Lyanna Stark of Winterfell who was betrothed to Robert Baratheon. Robert was a man who loved drinking and whoring around, Lyanna hated him even when Robert tried to woo her. When Rhaegar won the battle, he named Lyanna Stark as the Queen of Love and Beauty instead of his wife Elia, after the tourney Rhaegar and Lyanna met in secret as Lyanna fell in love with the crown prince.
Elia was weak after giving birth to Rhaenys and wouldn't survive the birth of another child this mad the mad king Aerys II Targaryen even madder so Rhaegar kept his relationship with Lyanna a secret. When Lord Rickard Stark, Lyanna's father told her that she would be marrying Robert very soon Rhaegar helped Lyanna to get away from Winterfell, they married under a High Septon but Rhaegar kept it a secret only telling James and Arthur about it as he took Lyanna to the Tower of Joy. Meanwhile Rickard and Brandon Stark accused Rhaegar of kidnapping Lyanna in front of king Aerys, the king charged both of them with treason and burned them as their punishment.
Following the burning of Lord Rickard Stark and his eldest son Brandon Stark, Robert Baratheon joined forces with Jon Arryn and Eddard Stark and rebelled against the Targaryen's. Meanwhile Rhaegar and James got some good news as both Lyanna and Lily were with child, when Rhaegar heard about the rebellion he and James left Lyanna and Lily in the Tower of Joy with Ser Oswell Whent and Ser Gerold Hightower from Kings guard to protect both Lyanna and Lily. When Rhaegar left with the royal army to fight against the rebels he made James stay behind in Kings Landing to protect his wife family from the anger of his father. Unluckily when the king questioned James about Lyanna James refused to tell the king as he promised Rhaegar to not tell anything to anyone.
King Aerys II Targaryen became mad at James and burned him too after charging him with treason, when Rhaegar learnt the news of what his father had done he ordered Ser Arthur Dayne to take James wife and his sister Lily to Asshai from the Tower of Joy. After Arthur was gone he heard the news of Rhaegar's loss at the battle of Trident and backstabbing of Lannister's as their sworn brother Jamie Lannister from Kings guard killed the mad king by stabbing him in the back, Rhaegar's wife Elia was raped by Tywin Lannister's men as they killed both Elia and princess Rhaenys, fortunately prince Viserys fled with his mother Queen Rhaella to Dragonstone. Queen Rhaella died giving birth to her daughter Daenerys Targaryen.
Eddard Stark or Ned married Catelyn Tully for the support of Tully in the rebellion, Catelyn was betrothed to Ned's big brother Brandon Stark but after the mad king burned both Brandon and Rickard Stark Eddard as a honourable man did his duty and married Catelyn. Ashara Dyne was Lily Dayne and Arthur Dayne younger sister, Ashara and Ned fell in love with each other in the Tourney of Harrenhal but when Ned married Catelyn Ashara jumped from a cliff and gave up her life. After the sack of Kings Landing when Ned found out that his friend Robert now the king awarded Gregor Clegane for what he did to Elia Martell and her daughter got very angry and demanded Gregor Clegane to be punished, but his demand didn't reach the deaf ears of the new king Robert Baratheon.
Ned found out that his sister was in the Tower of Joy, he with 5 other men rode to the Tower of Joy. He found Ser Oswell Whent and Ser Gerold Hightower of the kings guard guarding the entry of the tower, the men fought bravely but at last only Ned Stark and Howland Reed survived. When Ned found her sister Lyanna who was dying due to childbirth, she told her the truth of why she ran away and married Rhaegar, Ned promised Lyanna to keep his son safe from the new king Robert Baratheon. Lyanna named his son who was the rightful heir to the Iron Thorne as Aegon Targaryen before she passed away, Ned knew that if Robert found out about this he would kill his nephew so he renamed Aegon Targaryen as Jon Snow and told everyone that Jon is his bastard son.
Asshai was a land of mysteries to everyone in Westeros or Essos not many know the truth about these lands, Asshai was the land which was owned by the Peverell family. Asshai had been the stronghold of the Peverell family since the time Ignotus Peverell started the Peverell family, the land of Asshai which is owned by the Peverell's is home to people who can use magic, the people of Asshai are spread all over the world and are bound magically to the house Peverell. The people earn their keep by mining the golds available on the lands which was much more than what the Lannister's have.
Hadrian Peverell or Harry as he liked to be called was a very smart, intelligent and energetic boy, Harry started learning to read and write different languages mostly the Asshai, common tongue of Westeros and Valyrian language at the mere age of four. When he was 7 years old Ser Arthur Dayne started his training with swords and different kind of weapons, Harry was mainly taught by Maester Chigov and his uncle Arthur Dayne. Maester Chigov taught Harry how to read and write, history, politics and many other things as his uncle Arthur Dayne taught him how to fight and survive.
Harry was slowly getting all of his previous life memories back, in his previous life Harry had seen Daphne taking part in the political game and he had learnt from it, Harry was good at physical fighting as he was very good at dodging and striking at the right moment. When he was 11 years old his uncle had told him the full story of Westeros and how his parents died, and with the control over his magic Harry started teaching his spells and magic to the other magic users in Asshai and when his uncle and Maester Chigov asked about where he learnt those things he lied that he had learnt it from the Peverell family tomes in the library which can only be someone with Peverell blood.
Harry weapons training and sword fighting was progressing very well but Harry was still not on par with his uncle after all his uncle was Ser Arthur Dayne, The Sword of The Morning and the best swordsmen in all of the Westeros, but still after training under his uncle Harry was a very capable fighter. Harry best choice in sword was two identical swords which were made of Valyrian steel, it's hilt was a combination of gold and silver designed with gems with the house Peverell sigil on it, the Peverell sigil was of a black skeletal winged horse which was actually a Thestral. The two swords were called Phoenix and Basilisk and the hilt of the two swords can be joint oppositely to make a double sided sharp spear, it was a deadly weapon in the hand of someone who knew how to use it well and wisely.
Harry trained many witches and wizards in Asshai some of his magical skills and spells, he spread these witch and wizards all over Essos and Westeros to act as spies and if needed they can act as assassins too. Harry's uncle Arthur had also helped in improving the Asshai Army by improving their training as Harry was training them with magical skills, Asshai had a standing army of fifteen thousand men which included seven thousand horse riders. Harry also found that in this land magic came naturally as he didn't need a wand for most of his spells but on his eleventh birthday or name day as it is called he found the deathly hollows in his bed as a gift most probably from Death.
Harry also used his future knowledge in helping the farmers in Asshai to produce more foods, he also started to teach many group of people how to make different kind of Beers, Wines and Champagne from different fruits and ripe vegetables. The trade of these new drinks and fresh crops increased the wealth of Peverell family and the people of Asshai, Harry also designed and used many new machineries that made the mining process much easier. The new drinks were very popular and demand was very high so Harry had to hire a few outsiders to help with the production, seeing the high demand Harry also increased the price on those drinks but the demand was still high, overall speaking the isolated Asshai region was progressing very well.
Harry kept himself informed of everything that is happening in Essos and Westeros, his spy network was proving to be quite valuable and his training with his uncle Arthur Dayne was progressing very well. Harry was able to give his uncle quite a challenge now a days, the two gave each other many cuts and bruises while sparring and Harry had nearly defeated his uncle many a time nut Arthur Dayne's experience always came on top as he would always find some way to beat Harry. Harry was having a feast with his uncle Arthur and Maester Chigov and few other important people in Asshai celebrating his sixteenth name day.
Maester Chigov asked, "King Harry our army is very good, your spies are quite good and our trade business of gold silver and other metals are god as well, your new inventions of wine and champagne are very famous and that business is also going the best so far, what are our plans for the future?"
Everyone present in the feast looked at Harry for answer as he replied, "We will progress as we are doing as I am not sure about the futures but I plan on ending the slavery in Essos, I want to abolish the concept of slavery completely."
Arthur looked at his nephew, "It is a wise goal but very difficult."
Harry nodded, "I know, I have been thinking for ways to do this but still I always find many flaws in my plans. I can't go into war against the master of the slaves as they would put the slaves forward to fight their battles that's why I need another approach on this matter."
Ser Ugshel who was the commander of the Asshai army replied, "We all will think of something your grace, slavery has been there for many years it will be very hard to completely remove it."
Arthur asked, "That is true, Harry what are your plan for Westeros?"
Harry leaned back in his chair, "That is something that I haven't been unable to decide but there are couple of things that I want to do, first is catching Gregor Clegane 'The mountain that rides' and make him pay for his crimes against Elia Martell. She was very good friend of my parents and what that bloody mountain did with her and her daughter make my blood boil. The second goal is destroying the Lannister's, I want Tywin Lannister to see the fall of the Lannister's with his own eyes."
Everyone present in the hall agreed with Harry, Arthur said, "I agree with you nephew but right now the usurper Robert Baratheon is the king but the kingdom is virtually run by Tywin Lannister." Harry nodded, "Robert Baratheon is going to survive for few more years and then the Lannister's will make their move. Aegon Targaryen is the rightful heir to the iron throne but Ned Stark has been hiding him as his bastard Jon Snow but right now all I want to do is go and slap the lord Winterfell."
Master Chigov asked, "Why is that my grace?"
Harry replied, "My spies in Winterfell told me that even when he is being taught with his trueborn children, Lady Catelyn Stark despise him everyone in Winterfell know this and the honourable lord Stark is letting it happen. The true crown prince doesn't have any confidence in himself, he doesn't want to have children so that not another child would be called a bastard. Hell, one of my men told me that Catelyn Stark prayed in the godsweed to the old gods to take away Jon snow from their life or kill him. The rightful heir to the iron throne wants to join the Night's watch to make a name for himself."
Arthur replied, "Eddard Stark is far too honourable for his own good and that makes him a fool, he knew about James and Asshai as he was in love with your aunt Ashara. I would suggest you write a letter to him and give him a piece of your mind, he is letting his wife insult his nephew that should not be allowed. I suggest you gave him a threat that would stop his stupidity."
Harry nodded, "I will do that." Just then a man entered through the side door and gave a scroll to Harry. When Harry read the massage he was seething, he looked at his uncle and said, "Uncle it's time that I put a stop to the Targaryen madness." Maester Chigov asked, "Did prince Viserys did anything."
Harry looked at the man who was the leader of Harry's spy group, "I want you sent a word to Elvis to send Prince Viserys on the next great adventure and I want you to bring princess Daenerys Stormborn to Asshai." The man nodded and left. After the man was gone Harry said, "Viserys is planning to sell his sister to Khal Drogo a dothraki horse lord, he thinks that if he gives his sister to Khal Drogo the dothraki army will help him get the iron throne." Arthur looked in horror, "He wants to sell his sister to those rapists he is becoming madder than the mad king, I think your decision is right Viserys Targaryen has crossed his limits."
Harry nodded, "Well if you all will excuse me I have a letter to write, Maester Chigov please prepare the guest rooms for princess Daenerys." Maester Chigov replied, "As you wish my grace."
After others left the hall Arthur looked at his nephew and said, "You know, I thought you want to sit on the iron throne." Harry laughed, "Why would I do that uncle I mean seriously why would I fight a war just to sit on a ugly and uncomfortable iron throne, the prospect of becoming the king is exciting but I haven't thought about it much."
Arthur nodded, "Our new guest princess Daenerys would surely want to sit on the Iron Thorne which is rightfully her if her nephew refuses." Harry nodded and replied, "It is very much possible that he will refuse to take part in the game, Ned Stark has raised him just like himself. He is just like Ned Stark in his mannerism and also resemble him a bit in his looks, this is also the reason for Catelyn Stark hate towards him."
298 AL, Pentos
Home of Magister Illyrio Mopatis
Daenerys was silently crying as her brother had decided to sell her to the Dothraki horse lord, Viserys had always been cruel to her saying that she was the reason their mother died. He would always say that he should be sitting on the iron throne ruling the seven kingdoms of Westeros, whenever she tried to ask his brother for anything Viserys would get angry and hit her, she never wanted to make her brother angry or as his brother would say don't wake up the dragon but in reality, she hated his big brother Viserys.
Elvis was one of the wizards trained by Harry, he was a commoner in Asshai when Harry found him and taught him magic, he was given the responsibility to keep an eye on the Targaryen brother and sister. After he got the message from his king that told him to finish Visery Targaryen Elvis disillusioned himself and silently moved the home of magister Illyrio Mopatis, he found Viserys in his room sleeping. Elvis fired an organ burning curse which would slowly destroy all of his organs and kill him slowly and painfully, after that he moved towards the room of princess Daenerys, when he reached there he found the girl crying.
Elvis whispered, "Princess Daenerys."
Daenerys looked at the man addressing her, he was hiding his face very well and from his dress up he looked like an assassin, "Yes."
Elvis said, "Princess I am from Asshai, my king heard about what your brother is trying to do. My king said that your brother has gone above his limits when he planned to sell you to the dothraki horse lord, he wanted you to come with me to Asshai as a guest and he promised that you will be welcomed there."
Daenerys looked at the man and she felt that his words were true and she has a chance to escape this hell, "But what of my brother, he will get angry." Elvis replied, "Your brother has created many problems and it's time for him to go to the next great adventure." Daenerys looked at him and said sternly, "You mean to say that you are going to kill him." Elvis nodded, "My king father and mother were good friends with your big brother Rhaegar, the crown prince helped my king's mother to escape back to Asshai from Kings landing after your father burned my King's father in a fit of rage and madness. You must have noticed that wherever you and your brother stayed you always got some money to live, it was my king who saved you from many assassinations attempts and gave you the money when you needed it."
Daenerys eyes widened at this, she knew that she and her brother always get some help whenever they didn't have any money to eat or spend the night, many a times they have been attacked but someone always rescued them so she decided it was best for her if she accept the offer of the king of Asshai, "I am ready." Elvis nodded, "Your brother will die after some time, please pack everything you want to take and come with me, also I took your mother's tiara from your brother's room it should belong to you." Dany didn't waste much time as she didn't have many belongings, after packing few things she had Elvis silently and cautiously helped her escape.
AN: - Harry will be intelligent and powerful but he won't just overpower everyone with the powers of the master of Death, those powers are for the big evil and I think you all can guess which one. Please Review.
