Rae was being led to the Wall by a dragon that transformed to a raven. Her eyes when she saw him transform. She walked into the courtyard of the Wall. There she saw a snow-white direwolf with a red and black dragon curled up together. The raven cawed at her he was resting just beyond the direwolf and dragon urging her forward. She came forward the dragon turned to look at her.
"The Dragon has three heads," Rhaegar voiced came through.
Rae tilted her head touching the dragon scales. She could feel the heat radiating from with the dragon body much like when she touched Selaera, Rhaenys, or Visenya. She realized that this was the embodiment of her brother, Rhaegar. She threw her arms around the dragon's neck. The dragon nodded it large head looking over to snow white direwolf. Rae let go of the dragon's neck. She moved towards the direwolf. The direwolf turned and looked at her. As their eyes met Rae was transported to somewhere she did not know.
Rae looked around at countryside. She spotted a Tower. She gasped as she realized what this place was. It was Tower of Joy in Dorne. Where Rhaegar took Lyanna too, where they were married and their son was born. Why was she here? Rae moved forward she looked at the dead bodies that lay near the entrance of the tower. She knew the sigils of most of them. She saw the shining armor of Kingsguard with the three-headed dragon on two of men. One lay near a man feet that she recognized. She would know those eyes anywhere; they were the eyes that judge her when Robert wanted her to marry Robb. It was a young Ned Stark. There was a man that stood on the other side of the fallen Kingsguard, which Rae assumed to be Ser Arthur Dayne; she did not know that man. It was sigil she did not know. Ned looked relieved so Rae could only think that he had to be a Northern vassal house. It was odd for him not be part of Robb's army. Rae moved forward examining the sigil it was alligator nearly eating its one tail in a circle. She touched the sigil committing it to memory when a woman scream reached her ears. She turned right as Ned turned. Ned picked up the sword by his feet; it was Dawn the ancestral blade of House Dayne. The star on the hilt of the blade leaf no question her mind.
Rae quickly followed after Ned as he ran up the Tower. They came to a chamber where a woman moaned in pain. She was not far behind him. There were two maids in the room along with a woman that was lying in a pool of her own blood. This had to be Lyanna Stark. She was near death door it was clear to Rae. Tears started to come down her face. She shook her head.
"Ned?" Lyanna said
Ned came forward lying down Dawn by the blood-soaked piece of fabric at the foot of the bed. He knelt by her bedside near her head. Rae moved closer to the foot of bed knowing that she was seeing was important.
"Lyanna," Ned said
"Is that you?" Lyanna asked as if she could not focus on him.
They looked at each other for a time. Rae watched as she moved her hand that rest near her thigh that was cover by blood soak covering. She looked so pleased to see him.
"Is that really you?" Lyanna asked not believing that Ned was there that it was all in mind as she was near death door.
Ned took her hand and rested his other hand on her forehead. Rae moved to the other side of the bed so she could be closer to the pair. This felt so real to her. She could feel the texture of the fabric and smell the scent blood in the air. She knew then that she was in the past not visible to anyone. By all the Old and New Gods she had no clue how this was even possible.
"You're not a dream," Lyanna asked.
"No, I'm not a dream? I'm here. Right here," Ned reassured her.
"I want to be brave," Lyanna said.
"You are," Ned said not missing a beat.
"I'm not," Lyanna cried. Ned looked down at his blood soaked hand. Rae placed her hand on the bed touching the blood soaked fabric. "I don't want to die," Lyanna said.
"You're not going to die," Ned told her trying in vain to reassure her. He was near tears still looking at his blood soaked hand. He turned back to her as she was nearly sobbing in fear. "Get her some water," Ned ordered turning to one of servant women in the room.
"No, no water, just listen," Lyanna told him.
Ned looked back to her. He could tell she was fading fast. Rae at this point was crying uncontrollably. Why was she seeing all of this? Ned turned back to the maid.
"Is there a Maester?" Ned questioned desperately.
"Listen to me, Ned," Lyanna said. Ned turned back to her. He moved and she moved so her lips were right next to his ear. Rae could not read her lips from where she was at but she heard certain words.
"His name is…, If Robert finds out, he'll kill him. You know he will. You have to protect him. Promise me, Ned," Lyanna said desperately.
Ned looked shocked for a long moment as her words sank into his mind. He knew now what he had to do to protect his sister child.
"Promise me," Lyanna cried desperately.
A baby cry was heard. It brought Rae's attention to the other maid in the room. She was holding a newborn infant. Rae moved to look at her brother's son. She could see his already turning eyes to deep brown a Stark color eyes. The maid moved placing the baby in Ned's arms. A single tear slipped down his face as Lyanna still went on with, promise me, Ned.
"Promise me," Lyanna said as she slowly died.
Rae was suddenly brought back to the Wall. She was crying uncontrollably. The raven cawed again making her look at him. Her amethyst eyes met the raven eyes. That was when she noticed that the raven had three eyes.
Suddenly she was transported to field completely covered with snow. There was white walker surrounding her. Her eyes met the eyes of Night's King. He moved forward towards her as if he could see her. He went to swing his sword killing her.
"When the red star bleeds and the darkness gathers, Azor Ahai shall be born again amidst smoke and salt to wake dragons out of stone," A voice echoed.
Right when the sword was inches from her a sword ablaze stopped his blade.
Rae awoke like a snap. She was in such a state. Her chest was moving at a rapid rate. She looked around the room. Her heart rate slowly came down to a normal rate. She looked to her husband who was dead to the world. His naked chest was on full display. The sheet covering them was around his waist. She removed the tear tracks from her face. It was the night before they planned to attack King's Landing. Rae quickly got up so not wake Robb. She pulled on her nightdress and her robe. Greywind and Starlight looked at her as she moved out the room. She walked into the nursery. She looked at her sleeping babies. The image of Lyanna's and Rhaegar child flashed in her mind. She shook head kissing Lyanna, Lilliyan, and Torrhen forehead before she moved toward the embattlements.
The night was cold. She pulled the robe closer to her body. She looked out at the night sky in was early in the morning she guessed by the faint light coming over Blackwater Bay. Her eyes were watching the ravens flying delivering the news of attack planned for this evening at sundown. Drogon and Selaera flew over the sea in the mist that would melt off once the sun had risen. There was no question they were mated. She heard a thump behind her on the roof. She turned looking at the dragon that landed on the roof. It was Rhaegal. He moved closer at her as if he sensed his namesake closeness to her. She reached out to touch him. They locked eyes with one another.
"I know who your rider is, we will get him," Rae told Rhaegal.
Rhaegal moved closer to her allow her to hug his large head. She cried into Rhaegal neck. There was no question in her mind who the baby was now. Robb was right that about the baby being Jon. In retrospect, she was right when she told Robb him that it was Jon all those moons ago. Another thump was heard Rae looked up releasing Rhaegal's neck. Her eyes caught Rhaenys eyes. She moved over to her mother let her caress her face. She and Rhaegal take off. They were also now mated. Rae walked forward placing her hands on the stone curtain of embattlements of Dragonstone. The images she saw were flashing in her mind. Tears started to fall down her face. She did not know how long she was standing there. But felt around come around her shoulders.
"Are you alright, sweetheart," Robb asked.
"I'm fine," Rae said in shaking voice.
Rae turned in Robb's arms. He was dressed only in his robe and breeches. She cried into his chest taking comfort in an embrace. He quickly wrapped his arms around her rubbing her back trying to stop her crying. He finally made her look at him. He kissed her softly. She melted into that kiss.
"What did you see," Robb said.
"You were right, Rhaegar's and Lyanna's son is Jon," Rae muttered.
"How do you know," Robb asked.
"I saw it; someone showed me what happened, Robb. Your father did it to save Jon's life. Lyanna made him promise that no one would know. That why he claimed Jon as his own. I can't get that image out of my head," Rae said.
Robb just held her tighter to his chest. He knew that would not let Jon rot at the Wall now. But the battle took more prescient in Robb's mind. Once they took King's Landing and dealt with Cersei and mad son Joffery they would bring Jon into the fold. He knew that Rae was not telling him something but it was still too fresh in Rae's mind. He did not want to be in this state when he left for the battle.
Marinah made her way back from her baker husband Laroy shop. She carried with her two letters that her mother Luciya was brought to Laroy's shop from Lord Varys. Her brown hair was pulled away from her face with cap cover most of her hair. She was dress in simple patchwork cover gown. They did not have much but what they had they tried to share with the less fortunate. One barred Lord Varys seal the other had Dragon with chain breaking behind it with direwolf head with crown sealing the letter closed. She hides that letter closer to her chest. Knowing if anyone of Cersei spies saw her with the letter the fate that awaited her she did not want to think of.
On her way back she spotted Adrew Hersy a member of the city watch that guards the gates of King's Landing. He was a former Baratheon supporter but seeing King Joffery madness and lack of care the people had turned his view to a full fledge Targaryen supporter in secret for now. The truth was most of the city watch guards were now loyalist to the Targaryen and Stark family. They did not show it or else they would lose their jobs and most likely their heads. She made her way over to him as he conversed with another merchant. Adrew looked up noticing her.
"Marinah how is your husband," Adrew asked.
She smiled at him. She handed him the letter with dragon and direwolf seals on it. In a way that the seal was hidden by her hand and Adrew hand as he took it.
"He is well, he asked me to give this to you. Forgive me, I have to go you know there is a house to tend too," Marinah said.
"Of course, I will see you later," Adrew said turning back to the merchant.
Adrew stuck the letter into his doublet like it was nothing and went back to battering a price for a dagger with one of the blacksmiths.
Marinah quickly headed back toward her home with the letter that was for her house guest. In the months, and years since the start of war her house guest had become like a good friend to her and her mother. But as they knew was always their better.
Cersei stood in the courtyard of the Red Keep. Kathryn sat nearby with a maid assigned to her to spy on the girl. She was more naïve then Sansa was and she had already shared Joffery's bed. She was the perfect ploy to let her put ideas in her mad son's head. Cersei hoped soon that Kathryn belly would soon start to swell with Joffery child cementing the line of succession.
Cersei looked back at Kathryn with a distasteful look on her face. Before, she turned back to looking out of the Backwater Bay. She could tell something was up. She felt it all the way down in her bones. All her spies and the small council had reported the same thing that there were nothing and silence. Some even had the gall to say maybe they would not attack King's Landing. She nearly lost it when Grand Maester Pycelle suggested it. That was why he now rested in the Black Cells. She knew Raena Stone from her growing up beside Joffery. If there was one thing about Raena that Cersei knew about her was she did not start something she did not plan to finish. So them not attacking King's Landing were not a likely. She only hoped was that Daenerys and Raenera were fighting. Cersei had waited for some reaction for the blowing up of the Great Sept but there was nothing. The story that was spread was they were playing with Wildfire and blew themselves up. A story spread by her camp. She knew that small people did not believe it but she cared not for what the people thought. All that matter was her precious son.
"Your Grace, what do to think of cream colored gown with golden lions and stags on her wedding gown," the maid suggested.
Cersei turned to look at the maid. She moved over to where Kathryn sat. Kathryn made not reaction. She looked like she was resigned to her fate whether she liked it or not. She was smart on her part.
"I wish to speak to Kathryn alone," Cersei dismissed.
The maid bowed leaving the courtyard. They were left alone in the courtyard minus the few Kingsgaurds that were guarding Cersei. She took in Kathryn more closely. Kathryn did not meet Cersei's eyes she only looked down.
"What do you think of my son," Cersei asked.
"He is a great man and great king. I am honored to even be considered by him," Kathryn muttered the words ingrained in her head since her father imprisonment.
"You will wed as soon as the battle with these pretenders to the throne is dealt with. By then I hope that will have done your duty to my son, your soon to be husband, and King," Cersei said.
"I will do my best," Kathryn said.
"See that you do," Cersei threaten.
Marinah made her way inside her house. She closed the door locking it. She drew the curtains closed. She put her shopping on the table. Before, she made her way to room that house her house guest. She knocked on the door.
"My Lord, a letter from Lord Varys," Marinah said.
The door opened revealing a very much alive Ned Stark. He still was walking with a cane but he looked close to what he did when he entered the city. Marinah bowed her head handing him the letter.
"Thank you, Marinah," Ned said.
"You are welcome Lord Stark, venison stew will be supper if that is alright with you," Marinah said.
"That will be fine," Ned said heading back into his room to read the letter.
Jon made his way to where they were holding Allister Throne. He had long claw at his hip. He was followed by his to Kingsgaurds that were assigned to find Bran. That had taken to guarding him while they were at the wall. He took a deep breath before entering the room. His honor demanded that he be put to death but Jon also knew they need every man that they could spare. Allister looked up when Jon entered. He looked resigned to his death. Olly was tending to Allister. He looked over at Jon. Jon nodded for Olly to leave the room. Olly did so but stopped at door looking at the pair.
"Are you going to kill me Boy?" Allister asked.
"You planned a attack on your brothers of Night Watch. By all right and laws, as Lord Commander of Night Watch I should. But it would be unwise to do so also. We need every able body man in coming battle. And very few have your experience. So no .Ser Allister Throne I'm not here to kill you. I am going to warn you. I will be watching you. And I will not be so forgiving in the future. Betray the Night Watch again by any means and I will remove your head from your body," Jon said.
There will be more dragons, I have decided that all ready. But the question is where do you want the dragon eggs to come from or better question which mated pair do you want the eggs to come from? Oh, one more question what type of dragons do want them to be?
