The Hour of The Wolf

by VVSINGOFTHECROSS

Robb Stark's twin brother Dareon, must pick up the pieces of his shattered family. After reclaiming the north for House Stark, defeating the Ironborn and the treacherous Boltons and Freys. Upon receiving a rather cryptic note Dareon makes way to the Vale, but what will he find there when all his family are dead?

12. Sansa's Return

Near the Saltpans

They were close to the Saltpans the seat of House Cox, so close in fact that Sansa could see the Direwolf banner of her house flying proudly along with House Cox's own banner upon the tower walls. Sansa's great uncle Brynden had informed her of how her brother Dareon had reclaimed the north and the Riverlands from the Lannisters in such a way that Sansa felt a swell of pride in her chest for her brother.

Their trip down from the Bloody Gate had been without incident, though Sansa could not help but feel nervous thinking about her reunion with Dareon, would he still be happy to see her or would he feel angry at her, this fear stemmed from the fact that she had written that letter to Robb, saying father was a traitor and would he please bend the knee, true she had been forced to write it but she still felt horrible for it.

She was taken out of her thoughts by a gentle touch on her wrist by Ser Brynden when he said " My lady, we have arrived."

Sansa knew she was a different person to the one who had left Winterfell all those years ago , her only hope was that Dareon would be able to accept her as she was.
