Are you surprised!? Alot has been going on with me including moving so I am sorry for the long wait.
Also endings are just really hard for me and I wanted to do this one justice. Maybe I should have made it more climactic but to me the story has always been emotion led so I decided to end it the same way. There will be an Epilogue so your not rid of me yet.
Also if you want to see more from me I have a poll going on right now about what pairing I should do next!
Thank you so much for all the support this story got I would love to know what you think of it! Thank you so much for reading!

"Elia you're not being fair." Eddard told his wife he looked back at the door to make sure they were shut he would hate to think the children would hear.
"I do not have to be fair when you say you want to take my children from me!" She shouted Eddard thought his wife had a fierce beauty about her when she came to the defense of her children but he did not dare tell her now she would no doubt dismiss him as a flatterer. "And you are the one not being fair, what is fair about taking a mothers child from her!" She asked. Her eyes narrowed and her arms were crossed over her stomach as though he could somehow take the bump growing there away.
"The Capital is dangerous Elia, this castle is dangerous. They would be safe in the North," Eddard said. He needs to know they were safe.
"You are here, you and I will keep them safe!" Elia said taking his hands into hers.
"They are Starks Elia, they belong in the North. We belong in the north" Eddard said, and she quickly removed her hands from his.
"They are half Dornish, should we send them to Dorne?" Elia asked annoyed.
"How is Dorne safe?" Eddard asked.
"How is the North safe?" Elia told him angry. "How can splitting up our family be safer! Is that what you want for Aegon and Rhaenys to have another father who left them!" Elia said in anger but as soon as it came out of her mouth, she felt bad.
His grey eyes burned in pain. "You know I would never do anything to hurt Aegon and Rhaenys," Ned said slowly sitting down on their bed.
"Ned I am sorry, you are not him and I never should have compared you to him, it was unfair," Elia said softly.
"Now your going to be fair?" Her northern husband asked making her smile softly.
"I am sorry about that; I tend to run hot when it comes to our children's safety," Elia admitted.
"I'm aware," Eddard chuckled. As she sat next to him his hand went to her stomach.
"We should be calm for the baby." Eddard said simply.
"I don't think she likes us fighting, she's been kicking me since we started," Elia said he leaned down kissing her stomach.
"How do you know it's a girl?" Eddard asked.
"I know," Elia assured laying back against the bed and pulling him down with her, he happily embraced her.
"I don't like fighting," Elia said finally.
"Neither do I, especially because it seems unlikely, I will ever win," Eddard teased but she did not smile.
"I cannot force you to stay, and even if I am queen regent of this country, I am still a women and your wife, I could not stop you from taking the children," Elia said her lip quivered and her eyes watered at the thought.
"I would never just take them Elia." Eddard promised.
Her hand fisted a knot in his shirt. "You cannot leave me either Eddard, I could not bare it." Elia said like a whisper. The tears fell from her eyes. "We cannot live apart, we are better together and…..and I am head over heels in love with you Eddard Stark, " Elia said with tears
Eddard wanted to hit himself, even after all these years what Rhaegar did was inside of Elia and she still feared it. He kissed her hard.
"I love you Elia, I will always love you. I am a Stark of the North and that has always meant a lot to me. You mean more and if you want the children to stay in the capital they will," Eddard promised.
" I wish none of us had to stay in the capital but I will not leave Aegon to the lions and spiders." Elia said and Eddard tensed at the thought.
"No, not my boy," Eddard said simply with northern grit behind it because he was damn sure nothing would ever happen to Aegon or Rhaenys not while there was air in his lungs.
Elia smiled. "You run a little hot when it comes to the children too!" Elia teased.
"I do not run hot." He told her not stopping himself from kissing her lips.
"Who was the man who almost ripped Jamie Lannisters head off for not taking care of his family?"
"That's northern justice." Eddard said making her laugh, he kissed her head. "I love you Elia with all my heart I hope you know that."
She played with his hand. "I know," She promised. "I just forget sometimes," She said softly.
"I will remind you," He promised before kissing her.
She took his rough large hand into her delicate soft one. "I know you want the children to know Winterfell and the North, and I want that too. I would be happy for them to visit as long as you took them, but they cannot live apart from me, I cannot and will not let that happen." Elia said.
"Alright." Eddard said using his free hand to play with her hair.
"I know you miss the north too; I am sorry." Elia said and Eddard sighed.
"When did living in the capital become comfortable for you? When did you stop missing your home?" Eddard asked and she looked up at him.
"Never, I miss Dorne every day. It's warm and beautiful, the people there love us, the castles are more beautiful, and the wine is better." Elia told him.
"I'm sorry I never knew you felt that way, the children should visit Dorne too." Eddard decided.
"I'd love for you to see the watergardens, to see where I grew up just as I saw Winterfell." Elia admitted. "I hate Kingslanding but it's where the king lives and I cannot abandon him, but someday he will be a man, and I think he will be a man like you just and firm." Elia told Eddard.
"Hopefully your ability to lead." Eddard told her.
"And he won't need us anymore and want to establish his own independent rule and we can leave."
Eddard smiled at the idea. "Mayhaps between Dorne and the North, the vale perhaps it is where we fell in love after all."
"I think the vale is ruined for me, and as much as I love Dorne I was thinking of something much more remote, like a little holdfast somewhere in the north." Elia says with a small smile.
"I love the idea of that, but you brought up a good point and now I'm not sure I want to be so far away from Aegon, what if he needs me? Mayphaps Dorne, or Rhaenys may let us live on Dragonstone." Eddard said making Elia smile.
"I like that." Elia promised.
Only a few days after this peace was brought about so was the newest Stark. The new Stark was born to her parents concern she was born early and was a small baby. The maestor was optimistic about her chances. Elia watched her little tan daughter lightly make noises you couldn't even call fusses in her husbands arms. The small baby looked even smaller in his arms.
"This is usually when you tell me she is our last baby." Elia reminded him softly.
"That never works." Eddard said never taking her eyes off his daughter.
"You were right, I should not keep tempting fate if something happens to her I will never forgive myself." Elia told him.
His grey eyes looked up at her black ones. "No, if you listened to me we wouldn't have her, and even though I just met her I love her. It always happens but it always baffles me how easily my heart goes to our children. She's going to be fine, she is strong like her mother."
"I have been a frail women all my life Eddard." Elia reminded him.
"Name another woman who has survived what you have? Or man for that matter." Eddard said and she smiled.
"You are sweet." She told him before reaching out from the bed. "Alright give me my baby." She told him making him chuckle.
He sat on the side of her bed as he placed the baby in her arms.
"Why hasn't she cried?" Eddard asked the midwife who had no answer for him. Elia moved her night dress and her little babe was quick to latch.
"She's alright she is just a quiet wolf." Elia said making him smile.
Eddard kissed her head. "Do you still like Serena?" Eddard asked since she would be close in age with Brandon's daughter Sansa who was named after an ancestral Stark they talked about calling their daughter Serena after Serena Stark who was a twin of the first Sansa Stark. They thought it was sweet and both liked the name and had decided that was there name for a girl and Rickard for a boy. When Eddard wrote Brandon to of the news they were expecting Bandon had written back teasing that Ned was worried Brandon would end up with more children which seemed to be his goal. He didn't tell Elia because it seemed like something she would want to compete for.
"Sing." Elia said with fluttering eyes.
"I have no idea why you like that." Eddard said no one had ever thought he had a good voice before her and even as a boy his mother was the only person who could get him to sing. That was until he met his Dornish princess, he would do anything for her.
"I find your voice very comforting." Elia told him as the baby was sated of milk and happily slept Elia laid her head against his leg.
"Alright." Eddard said it was funny to Elia that her shy quiet husband who only spoke when he had something to say would sing to her whenever she desired but Rhaegar who was a renounced singer never sang her a song. She thought delivering his children had been cause enough for a song but when she asked if he would sing a song for Rhaenys he told her he'd make a song from a son but not a daughter, and when Aegon was born he said he already had a song, the song of ice and fire. When he sang it, his beautiful words were hollow and meaningless like their marriage had been.
Rhaegar left her mind as quickly as he entered it. That was almost nine years ago. It seemed like a different life time ago or at least somebody else's cold, formal life.
She laid her head on Eddards lap. He rubbed there baby gently with one hand while the other tangled in her hair. "Which one?"
"The one about the Wolves, we don't have that in Dorne, I think it's my favorite." She mused.
"It was written about our family by the mountain clans." Eddard told her. The more he played with her hair the harder it was to keep her eyes open. She only hummed a content noise in response, her wonderful wit failed her as tiredness consumed her.
"The snow falls down from upon us
but we will be warm as long as blood wont spills
We fear no snow, hail, or gust
Unless the wolves come into the hills
For the wolves have laws we must follow
And the wolves have iron for wills
We cannot feud or disobey the wolves word isn't hollow
They will come bringing the chills"
He murmured into her ear both his girls were happily asleep until the door burst open. Elia pulled her baby close to her out of instinct and the baby fussed softly.
"It's alright." Eddard promised helping her sit back up against her pillows, he knew who it was. The children busted through with guards on their sides.
"You were supposed to wait until I came to get you." Eddard reminded sternly stopping the children in their tracks before looking to ser Selmy and ser Jamie.
"Sorry my lord, kings' orders." Jamie said smugly.
"You decided this Egg?" Elia asked giving Eddard a look he returned, it did not seem like something there Aegon would do, he had been very excited for the baby, but he was more patient then the rest of their children.
Aegon's eyes flickered down before looking at them. "Yes father." He said readily taking the blame.
Torrhen jumped up in down impatiently. "I want the baby!" He whined he was very impatient but he was only 6 and would hardly think up a plain to use Aegon's title to get what he wanted. Torrhen pouted to his mother and she had too look away so he would not see her smile.
Mariah was only seven but she was such a little mother already she held onto little Eddie to keep him from falling. Barely 3 Eddie looked exactly like his father, where Mariah had her mothers, black curles, big lips, and big dark eyes, but she had lighter skin then Rhaenys, Torrhen, and the new little one.
Eddie hugged onto Mariah he did not really understand or care about the new baby he just wanted attention.
"Your mother has been through a lot and she was resting." Eddard said waiting.
"I didn't mean to-I'm sorry momma." Aegon said while everyone claimed he was Rhaegars spitting image Elia saw a lot of his grandmother in him, he had her eyes and heart shaped face, even he even bit his lip like she did.
"And you are going to take a punishment for your actions?" Eddard asked.
Aegon nodded slowly.
Rhaenys could not remain silent, king or not she would always be older then him and she acted like it. "I told him to tell his guards that we were coming in, Aegon was only obeying me do not punish him." Rhaenys said stepping infront of her baby brother, she was tall for 11. She took after her mother aside from her purple eyes. She fearlessly awaited her punishment.
"Always the quite ones." Jamie Lannister muttered getting an annoyed look from Eddard.
"Do not do that again." Eddard told her he was truly to happy to punish anyone for real today. Rhaenys nodded and apologized.
Eddard nodded to the kids and they immediately ran forward.
"It's a girl Mariah." Eddard said watching her smile grow wider.
"She's so cute!" Mariah said gleefully.
"No she isn't!" Torrhen said bluntly.
"Torrhen!" Mariah scolded.
"They are all wrinkled at first, but they get cute, or at least Eddie did!" Torheen told his sister they were to close in age not to fight like cats and dogs. Eddard was hoping they would get along as well as Rhaenys and Aegon but that was not the case.
"When are you going to get cute?" Aegon asked his little brother getting a scowl in response. Torrhen just kept whining to be picked up.
"She's so little. What is she called?" Rhaenys asked.
"We decided-" Eddard started.
"I want to change her name." Elia said whipping away a tear.
"Are you alright?" Eddard asked.
"I was just thinking of an old friend. Someone I couldn't save. Can we call her Rayla spelled R-a-y-l-a" Elia asked.
"What ever you would like love." Eddard said, he lifted Eddie onto his lap. He looked at his children that were always growing and changing and leaving him in all. "You gave me all of them and that's all I need." Eddard promised
Rayla was sickly at first but never as badly as Elia had been in her youth. When she turned three the long summer seemed to be here to stay, they decided a trip was deserved after ruling for seven long years.
A royal progression it was called and though he was young Aegon did exceptionally well with all that, he was polite and brandished his intellect. Every lord who met him sang his praise and Eddard said it was good for them to see him now, at 12 he wasn't so little anymore, he was tall and muscular his master at arms and maestor both praised him. Ned said it was good for them to see the boy king was not such a boy anymore. Lords throughout the riverlands were so impressed with him including the future liege lord of the riverlands and his wife who all the girls thought was the most beautiful women they had ever saw. Everyone who met him thought of him as a man grown.
Elia was less satisfied with that because he was just a boy and her boy. She felt better when they finally arrived at Winterfell where Brandon refused to here any polite talk from a king to his lord and instead hugged his nephew and told him about how cute he was as a baby.
Eddard was so happy to be home and Elia was happy to have a small break from the daily trials of the red keep. They walked arm and arm around Winterfell he told her the story behind every tapestry and statue. They walked out onto the balcony to see the children playing.
Aegon had embraced being allowed to be a boy here, Torrhen threw a snowball at Aegon making him smile and throw one back which began the war. Aegon was older than Torrhen and had an easier time packing the snow and throwing it.
Visenyen seemed to have a thing for helping the weak. "Come on Robb." He called he had become fast friends with the heir to winterfell. Soon both of them were next to Torrhen all three of them pelting Aegon with snowballs and four when Theon joined in.
"Leave him alone!" Rhaenys shouted she threw a snow ball the first missed making them laugh but the second hit theon in the face making Aegon laugh but she was not very much help and when snowballs rained down at them she hid behind Aegon.
Aegon turned to his guards. "Well aren't you going to defend your king and the princess of dragonstone?" Aegon asked.
Jamie and Ser Barristan glanced at each other before joining in.
"Come on Brandon, the young Dragon can have the iron throne but this is Winterfell and Winterfell belongs to the Starks!" Benjen shouted.
"Is that a good idea?" Catelyn asked her husband.
"I can wield a sword with my left hand a snowball shouldn't be a problem?" Brandon said.
"Brandon Stark that is not what I meant!" Catelyn said she was holding little Sansa's hand, she had her younger daughter Alysanne on her hip and a bump grew from their newest child.
"But I have to defend my lady wife and daughters." Brandon teased kissing her cheek.
"Fine!" she relented, and he was off.
Elia and Eddard watched laughing.
"Come on Ned!" Benjen called.
"I am staying out of this!" Ned told him he was happy watching with Elia cuddled up to him.
"When is the last time you have seen Aegon play?" Elia asked happily.
"When is the last time you have seen Rhaenys come to her brothers aid?" Ned asked smiling.
They happily watched until Brandon hit Mariah who was happily playing in the snow unaware of the snowball fight insuing. "DADDY!" She yelped.
Eddard looked at Elia.
"He has earned his fate." Elia said and with that Ned joined the snow fight but in the end Eddard and Benjen ended up tacking each other rolling around fighting and laughing in the snow like they did as children.
Spiced milk was served in the great hall afterwords Brandon told Visenyen about how his mother liked to have snowball fights when they were younger, he told him she would be very pleased with her son.
"Mommy!" Eddie said as he ran to his mother, he was little and Elia had wanted him and Serena to stay inside where they would be warm. Elia caught him in her arms.
"Mommy will you come play?" Eddie asked.
"After dinner my love, mommy is tired she is going to rest."
"Papa!" Eddie said turning to him.
"Papa is going to help mommy rest." Eddard told his son who just pulled on Eddard.
"Where is Rhae?" Elia asked her son. "Can you find Rhae?" Elia asked and Eddie ran after his sister.
After they had found their release, they cuddled up and warm under furs and in each other's arms Elia kissed Ned. "I love seeing you this happy." Elia told him running a hand through his brown hair. He had been smiling since they got in the north.
"I am happy to be home but more then that I'm happy watching our children grow, Aegon is a little man, Rhaenys is so clever and getting more beautiful every day, Mariah is so kind hearted and sweet, Torrhen is a wild wolf like Brandon and I am so glad they get to know each other." Ned said happily.
"Eddie is your little doppleganger, and Rayla is such a happy little toddler she never whines she is all joy and laughs and smiles." Elia said.
"I'm so very lucky to have you, in all Rhaegars madness he gave me the one person I truly need." Eddard said.
"You did not need me, Ned I might not be alive without you and your family's protection, Aegon would not be king without you, Rhaenys and Aegon could have died like Rhaella's little son and daughter. I needed you." Elia told him seriously.
"Don't even say that." Eddard told his wife. "As long as there is breath in my lungs I will not let anything happen to you or any of our children." He promised. "But I needed you too Elia, I love you and only you." He told her he watched the awed expression on her face, she could never keep Rhaegars attention but after all these years she understood that Eddard would never hurt her, he was a man of his word and honor. He kissed her, it was a slow lazy kiss for lovers who had already found their bliss and were cuddling before they went to sleep. He pulled away and her delicate hands went on either side of his face bringing him back to her she smiled as she kissed him, but this kiss was more needy then the last. Suddenly he no longer felt both laid on their sides. He pulled her close and to his endless delight she hooked her leg over his without him asking his hand went to her. Her hand traveled down his chest and further wrapping her hand around his hardening length made him groan out. She moved her hand up and down crashing her lips against his own in a passionate embrace.
He let out a wolf like growl when their lips parted. He had a burning desire for her, but he saw her tired eyes, they had already enjoyed each other twice today and though his wife was very strong of mind her body was always delicate.
"We could just sleep." He offered in a husky voice.
"Never!" She declared unbowed unbent unbroken. She kissed him soundly while taking his hand to her chest and enjoying the animal sound he made as his blunt fingers twirled a crossed a hard nipple. His other hand guided her hip as he went inside her. Her arms wrapped around his neck and she bite his shoulder making him howl in pleasure and trust hard into her making her head roll back in pleasure. "Ned!" She gasped she rocked her hips back in forth making him burn as she made this little delectable noise. He couldn't help but stare at his princess in her pleasure, he thrusted sharply again to add to her merriment.
"She made a whinny noise as she matched his thrust he could tell she was close, it wasn't hard for him to bring her to bliss, he wondered if it was because she was such a creature of love, beauty, and warmth he continued to thrust into her with stamina until she finally found her bliss. He began to pick up his pace thrusting into her faster, he had quite the stamina, but he was undone when she decided to give his ear a little teasing lick.
Once they parted, he rolled onto his back pulling her into his arms. He placed several loving pecks to her head while one hand combed through her luscious hair and the other rubber at the small of her back. He watched her bat her eyes tiredly, her head laid against his chest her delicate fingers mindlessly made patterns against his skin.
"What's that noise?" She asked closing her eyes.
He couldn't help but smile when he stared at the glorious women he married as she drifted to sleep in his arms.
"It's just a summer snow whirling about outside love." He promised.
Elia was sure that's how her last baby was conceived, in Winterfell during a summer snow.
The baby was born at sea as they travelled back to Kingslanding. They had been delayed more then they liked on the road as it was. They were somewhere at the end of the north or the beginning of the riverlands when the baby came. Just as small as Rayla but much hardier the babe wailed as if refusing to be drowned out by the waves, she was all wolf just as pale as Eddard with a head of brown hair. Elia smiled when Eddard came into the cabin with flurries on his tunic. "A summer snow." She murmured tiredly.
"We should have stayed in Winterfell." Eddard said looking at the little thing howl. They were hoping to get back before the baby came and though she was early she wiggled and wriggled and screamed with authority he was not worried at all for the baby it was the women who birthed her he worried for. She was pale as a ghost and had been horribly ill since they got on the ship.
"Elia are you alright?" He asked.
"No more babies." She grumbled.
"I will hold you to that." Eddard said gently taking his daughter in his arms. He kissed his tired wife's cheek.
"I have feed her, but she will not stop fussing! Unfortunately for us she has wolf blood like Torrhen."
"Or whatever it is your brother suffers from." Eddard told her making her laugh.
"That is called Oberyn being Oberyn." Elia said making him laugh. Though she rested she reached up so she could have a hand on her babe.
"She's beautiful." Eddard said for the rest of her life everyone said their youngest was all Stark but from the beginning Eddard saw Elia in her and it would only grow with age, little things like the long eye lashes, she was skinny, with big almond shaped eyes. To more important things like Elia's strength, persistence and wit.
"I want to name her for your mother." Elia said breathlessly as she caressed her new baby contently.
"Isn't that sad?" Eddard asked as he held both his wife and new daughter in his arms.
"Similar then." Elia decided. "Lyarra, L-Yarra, Yarra, Arra, Arrya, Aryla" Elia played with the name while Eddard chuckled when she had it she smiled victoriously. "Arya! Arya Stark." She told him and he kissed her.
"A good name." He agreed happily looking at the babe.
Finally in her parents arms the babe was content at least for a few moments.
They were not able to leave the capital for another three years until a fifteen year old king told them he was fine on his own and they both deserved a break especially because they often stayed in the capital while Aegon would tour the seven kingdoms, traveling was a great joy of the young kings though it worried his mother. He visited high lords, went to the wall and thanked them for their services, he went to Dorne and saw his mothers home for himself, as well as many visits to Winterfell, he even went to Essos with his Uncle Oberyn as his guide and when he could not go far into the unknown he would still ride out of Kingslanding for a day or take a ship to visit his sister on Dragonstone and these little trips helped him with the weight of his duty as king so he could spend most of his time in the capital ruling without crumbling under the pressure as many kings before him.
He insisted his mother and stepfather have the same opportunity and sent them off to the water gardens.
Rhaenys declined the invitation but the other children came with them.
Mariah loved the desert flowers and mothering the little children. Torrhen ran around the water garden's wild as ever now with little Arya his partner in crime. Rayla liked to dangle her feet in the water while she read. Eddie followed Oberyn around as though he wore a god.
Elia adored Winterfell she kept closer to Eddard for warmth, but she truly enjoyed it not least of all because it's how she met Eddard as scary as it was at the time. Eddard wanted to give her home the same respect, but he found himself boiling in the heat trying to keep track of his little wolves amongst all the other children. He enjoyed seeing Elia so happy with her brothers, he found Doran to be good company though he was a man of wit and intellect and Eddard was a man of action and very few words.
He watched Torrhen happily splashing a larger child that knocked his baby sister over while Arya laughed. He was glad the children were happy though he felt he would melt into the sand.
Elia came up to him she was still as beautiful to him as when he met her though age had done her well, she had been so sickly in her youth and although she could once and awhile feel frail. He also did not mind the added curve on her breast and buttocks from baring his wolf pack. She wore a silver and gold silky dornish dress with a deep neckline and a high slit.
She grabbed his hand pulling him away without a word. He did not protest but he looked back to make sure all his children were well before he left. He scanned the garden for all their merry little faces.
"What are you doing?" Eddard finally grumbled she took him to chambers that were foreign to him and began undressing him from his leather before the handmaidens even left the room. He tried to stop her for proprieties sake, but it was hard to stop Elia when she set her mind to something.
"Saving your life." She promised. "You should swim it would keep you from overheating." Elia told him simply once the door shut behind the last handmaiden Eddard let her undress him without further complaint.
He just shook his head and it made her smile; it was far too much to ask of her private northerner but she had an elegant solution. "Moron Martell built this whole palace for his Targaryen princess." Elia said taking his hand and leading him into the next room. "And this was there private pool." Elia told him. The room was large and mostly empty like most or the Dornish rooms. The pool was of good size. The water was perfumed with flower petals. He smiled she walked past it to the bed examining what laid there.
"I had Dornish robes made for you." She told him as fact.
"Elia that's hardly-"
"I had them made for you; you will wear them before you sweat to death." She told him with a mischievous smile they were not a elaborately decorated as most of the Dornish robes, but they were rich silver and blue in color. She had him in mind when she ordered them and it showed.
"That was kind thank you." He said stepping into the water offering her his hand.
"That is more like it."
"It seems you have tamed your northern savage." He said smiling, he watched her untie her dress in one simple move his favorite thing about Dorne so far.
"Not all the way. I like him a little rough." She mused taking his hand as she too stepped down into the pool.
Eddard pulled her into his arms. "You didn't have to do this." He murmured.
"I wanted you to have a happy memory here." Elia told him simply her wet hand moving through his hair. She remembered marrying him when he was still half a boy, there was nothing boyish about him now he was a hardened man and a good honorable one at that. There was something undeniably safe in his adoring grey eyes.
"All my best memories are with you." Eddard promised making her smile that glorious smile he fell in love with no matter where they were. He never regretted that they were thrusted together not for a moment not even at the worst of times. She was the best thing to happen to him.
"I am just worried the sun beats a little to hard for you." Elia told him touching his fair cheek. Her hand touched hers keeping it in its place.
He took in the glory of his wife, her natural beauty for sure but her cleverness, her goodness, and nurturing ways were always near to his heart. She risked her life again and again to give him this big beautiful family, and although he feared losing her he was glad she never listened to him because each of their children was special and a different perfect blend of the two of them even Rhaenys and Aegon who would both swear they only had one father and he was a stubborn northerner named Stark.
"I quiet admire the sun."
...
There you have it! Laurenbull I know you had to be patient but I thought of you the whole time I wrote Arya's birth, thanks for sticking with me! I never put kids ages because sometimes they aged through out a chapter. There will be ages on in the Epilogue. I decided the story began with Elia and Eddard and should end with them so I did not do to much with any of the side characters. Thank you to everyone who read this story I felt a lot of love from this one and I appreciate it more then you know. I would love to hear what you thought about any and all of it. Thank again!
