I own nothing

The next morning Raenera arrived at the Sept in the city. On the steps were most of her father servants. She had tears falling from her eyes. She was dressed in black silk southern gown with sliver trim. Her hair was down in it curly natural state. The queen was standing near the top. Behind her was her brother Jamie. Next to her were her three children all of them dressed in black. Joffery had arrogant look on his smug face. She bowed her head to each of them. Before, she met eyes with Cersei for a moment. Raenera looked away to be greeted by the high Septon she held her head up high as she was led into the Sept. King Robert was not present that was something Raenera knew he would not be; kings never attended a funereal even if was for their queens. She had been told numerous times; it was something to do with King not being thought of dead or something like that as she bowed her head and looked at her father dead with stones in place of his eyes. She knew as she cried her eyes turned purpler and more looking like her Targaryen side that could get her killed if she was not careful; suddenly looked around her she was surround by people that half did not know the truth the other half if they knew were keeping quiet to serve their own purpose.

Raenera was tapped on her right shoulder. She turned and saw Baelish. He was dressed in black for the funeral. She turned and looked at him dead in the eye her nearly completely purple eyes met his blue eyes.

"My deep sympathies Lady Stone," Littlefinger stated

"Thank you. He now rests with the seven" Raenera answered turned her head back to Lord Arryn's body.

Later that day, King Robert came into Cersei study. He drunk per usual. Cersei looked shocked to see him.

"We ride north at sunrise," Robert stated.

Cersei nodded her head then rose from her chair walking near him.

"What of our new ward, Lady Stone, " Cersei asked.

"She is still in mourning. I will have her chambers moved and I will not ask her to make this journey. I have Ser Barristan stay here with her." Robert said walking over to table were a pitcher of wine sat.

He poured himself a glass; taking a long drink of the wine. Cersei took her seat again and took her glass in her hands.

"Good, good… You know that Lady Stone is of marriageable age. She's nearly the same age of our Joffery. She spent her whole life in the capitol .It would not be wrong to send her away from the capitol. Maybe be wise to have them wed." Cersei tried to manipulate Robert to her side.

Raenera was no threat to Cersei the girl had little to no backbone and was weak in Cersei eyes. Robert took another long drink before looking at Cersei whose hands were folded neatly on her lap.

"I will find her a match for the girl Cersei," Robert stated before stormed out the room.

Raenera was sat in small out cove of the garden with Starlight at her feet. The more she realized there was no one she could trust here not completely. Lady Lysa was not at Lord Arryn's funeral which Raenera found very odd neither was young Robin again it was very odd. She was watching the water on the sea contemplating a way for find the rest of her family; her half brother and half sister. She could hear a couple of the king guards hunting for her. She sank deeper into the tree covered out cove as heard them positive that Robert had found out her secret. Starlight whine licking Raenera hand she looked down at her tear coursing down her face.

"It's alright Starlight. We find our way." Raenera said as Starlight looked up at her and whined.

"Lady Stone" A man voice that Raenera recognized as Ser Barristan.

He was the only king guard that Raenera trusted. He was a true knight, honorable and kind.

"Ser Barristan," Raenera answered.

He came closer to her. Starlight rose up and barred her teeth in order to protect of her mistress. Raenera placed her and on Starlight back calming her turned back to Ser Barristan. He nearly gasped when he looked in her eyes. It was like him stared back into the mad king eyes before he was known as mad king. But unlike her true father eyes, there was kindness and fear in eyes.

"His grace requests your presence in small council chambers. My lady"

"Thank you, ser"

She looked down nervously folding her hands in her lap. He came over to her knelt by her knees. He placed his hand on her hands still them looking around making sure no one was around.

"I will keep you safe, child. I may have failed your family but I will not fail you."

"Thank you"

Raenera stood up to her full height with him. She held her head height as they walked towards the keep. Starlight kept pace with her never leaving her side. She paused outside of the room. She took a deep breath and looked over to him. He gave her a reassuring smile.

"Stay here" Raenera commanding Starlight.

Starlight laid down right outside the door.

She took another breath calming her nerves before she pushed opened the door. King Robert was the only person in the room. As soon as, the door shut Raenera dropped down to her knees and bowed her head in sign of respect.

"You wanted to see me, your grace," Raenera said softly.

"Lady Stone, or should I call you Lady Arryn…raise child come share a drink with me." Robert started.

Raenera rose but keep her head bowed so he could not see her purple eyes. She took the seat opposite of him. He poured some wine into a goblet for her and himself. She took a tiny sip of the wine as he took a long drink.

"With the untimely passing of your father and disappearance of his lady wife Lady Lysa with their son, it leaves you here alone with no one to care for you. You will become a ward of the crown. I will have you chambers moved out of the tower of hand. If you were a boy I would give you a tile and a keep and be done with it. Being that you are not a male and a female. I have legitimized you. You are now Lady Arryn, a high-born lady, and a maiden. My queen has suggested I marry you to my eldest son."

Raenera took a large drink of the wine at the suggestion that she spend the rest of her days with that arrogant cruel spoiled boy. Robert looked at her with a question on how she felt on the match.

"I would be honored if you would do so. But, I would think it unwise… Forgive me. I have spoken out of turn." Raenera lied

"I had the same thought. No offense to you my lady. A former bastard of a high-born noble family is not the same as a high-born maiden of a noble family for a queen. That is why I plan to marry him to Lord Eddard Stark's eldest daughter when she is old enough. But, that leave us with you. I have means to have you marry Lord Stark's eldest son, Robb. How does that sit with you, child?"

Raenera took another drink. She tried to remember what her father had told her about the Starks. They were honorable family. They were far from the capital as possible having married a noble family. She smiled up at the king it was completely genuine smile.

"If it is agreed upon; I would be deeply honored to be tied to such honorable family. It is truly more than I could ever hope for. If it is your will your grace."

"Good you are dismissed."

She rose from her seat bowing before she turned to exit the room. She was greeted by Ser Barristan and Starlight. Ser Barristan offered her, his arm to taking her to her new chambers. She opened the door to what were once her old chambers before the sack of kings landing. It ornately decorated. The box that held her mother jewelry was by the fire place. She turned back to Ser Barristan mouthing thank you. He smiled at her as she shut the door. She silently was thanking the old and new gods that she was not being forced wed to Joffery excited that she will hopeful be free from the horrible game that played here. She rose walking over to book her father gave her years ago when she was maybe a child of six. She was just learning the houses. She pulled it out she thumbed through the pages until she got to the Starks. She stared at the sigil.

"With any hope Starlight, we will be heading to the North soon."

Raenera continued to thumb through the northern houses until she came to the Umber house. The sigil looked very similar to four chains breaking on her new brooch. She slowly read each name on the page slowly taking in that this maybe her mother family.
