I own nothing
Author note: I am sorry for the lack of updates. October has not been the greatest for me and my family. I have been dealing with family issues. I hope you enjoy this chapter. I have taken note of your ideas on my last question. And I will think on that, I do have plans for what to come. I do have another question. There will be big characters in the show and this story dying. The war with the night king will not be a simple one. Who do you want to see as wights? And at least one dragon will fall, should there be more? And thank you for all your support. I do want it to have a bittersweet ending like the books are said to have.
Rae and Robb stood in the dining hall. Their eyes were traveling around the room where Banners of Targaryen and Stark family now lined the rafters as they entered. People bowed as Robb and Rae made their way to head table were Daenerys was already along with Tyrion, along with Ned and Catelyn. The center two seats were opened for Robb and Rae. Their Children were in the nursery. On the left side front table were Arya and Sansa with Lady Olenna and Mace and Willas Tyrell. On the right side were the Umbers, Lady Shireen, and Ser Davos. Jaime and Lady Evalyne were on the left side as well. Robb pulled out the seat for Rae. Before, he took his seat. He nodded his head for the meal to start. The food was brought out along with wine started to flow. Robb held Rae hand kissing the top of her hand as they looked out on the crowd.
"So did the Tyrells agree to our deal?" Robb asked.
"It would be unwise for them not to," Rae said taking a drink from her goblet.
Rae's eyes lingered on the Tyrell Family. Lady Olenna raised her glass to Rae. She smiled returning the gesture.
"That is not an answer love" Robb teased.
"And Lady Olenna is anything but unwise," Rae answered.
"I hate it when you do that," Robb said lovingly kissing her cheek.
"You would not have me any other way and you know that," Rae teased back.
Rae turned and kissed him. Robb returned the kiss. The crowd cheered at the loving gesture between their Queen and King. They pulled apart rest their foreheads against one another's forehead. They both mouthed I love you. They both returned to their meals.
"So another seat on our small council is filled," Robb said.
"Yes, Mace Tyrell is now our Master of Coin. Although I much rather have Lady Olenna on our council. She is smarter than her son. We need to settle on final council my love," Rae told him looking at Lady Olenna.
"So only master of Law to fill," Robb said.
"Yes, until we have the final word from Ser Davos. If he says no it the hard decision between the Martell and Greyjoy family," Rae said.
Robb's eyes lingered on Lord Karstark who was laughing Greatjon Umber. He looked back to Rae. Rae's eyes followed Robb's eyes. She took a bite of her meal. Robb continued to eat his meal. He took a drink of his wine.
"I still say Lord Karstark would make a good one," Robb said.
"But not the best," Rae started. Robb turned to argue with her. He caught a look in her eyes. She was looking at someone. He followed her eyes and landed on his father. She joined their hands giving his hand a little squeeze. "Robb, my love, I know you value your father's advice greatly. And I can think of no better man tome our master of law than your father," Rae said.
In Braavos, bankers of the Iron bank were meeting. They were talking about debts that still needed to be paid. Tycho Nestoris sat next to Horidos Vollel. Horidos was Orella father. Next to Horidos was Noho Dimittis.
"Any word of on the Seven Kingdoms debt," Noho Dimittis asked.
"None," Tycho Nestoris said.
A knock sounded at the door. All the men in the room looked up. Noho Dimittis, who was closest, opened the door. A sailor stood at their door. In his hands was a letter. Noho Dimittis took the letter without saying a word the man. He shut the door and turned back to the man in the room. He looked at the seal on the letter. His eyes went wide handing it to Horidos. Horidos smiled thinking how the Lannister's had wrong his daughter. Before, he handed to Tycho. Tycho opened the letter. His eyes scan the paper.
"The Seven Kingdoms is under a new ruler. It seems that Queen Raenera Targaryen now Stark sits on the Iron Throne. She wishes to completely settle the Seven Kingdom debt. In fact, it states that half of the payment shall be here in forenight time," Tycho said.
"We cannot lose the Seven Kingdoms," Noho said worriedly.
"The slave traders will not like it," another banker commented.
"It could be to our benefit," Horidos said.
"I don't see how," another banker said.
"Once their debt is settled, if we become the bank of Seven Kingdoms…and the sole bank of Dragon Queen. If she is anything like her ancestors she will not just settle for the just the seven kingdoms," Horidos explained.
"Queen Raenera has reconquered the seven kingdoms. She has brought them all to heel. Like Aegon and his sister wives did. And with Daenerys at her side who said they will not expand their empire to all of the known world," Noho said.
"We should send someone to a treaty with them," Another banker commented.
"Agreed," everyone in the room said in unison.
"I volunteer," Horidos said.
"No, I think it would be wise if I go," Tycho said.
Music filled the dining hall. The formality of supper was over. Robb was talking with his father about being the Master of Law. Daeny was conversing with Tyrion and Missandei. Arya was talking with Gendry. Smalljon Umber was conversing with Oberyn Martell and Ellaria Sand. Sansa was talking with Evalyne and Lord Jaime. Willas came over to Sansa offering her a red rose. She smiled at him. Rae glared at him for a moment as he flirted with Sansa. And Sansa returned his flirtation with an innocent flirting. While Rae knew his flirtation was anything but innocent. A clearing of a throat causing Rae to look at the person that stood near the table. Ser Davos stood there.
"Ser Davos," Rae greeted him.
"Your Grace," Ser Davos greeted in return. He came stand right next to her. He looked over to Lady Shireen who gave him a nod. She was talking with Tommen. He took a deep breath looking back at Rae. "I have made my decision My Queen. It will be my honor to be Your Master of Ships," Ser Davos said.
"It will be our honor to have you," Rae said.
Mance was led out of his cell to the courtyard of Castle Black. Ser Tirius Serrett had a very smug look on his face. He was surrounded by Ser Allister Thorne, Janos Slynt and men of the Night Watch were in the courtyard. They were there along with Lannister and Stark soldiers that were set to ride out at dawn to Bran Stark. The captured Wildings were also stood in the courtyard. He was lead to a stake with a platform built of wood and straw. Gilly stood by Sam. Edd stood next to Jon on his other side was Olly. Mance was lead to a stop in front of the platform were Ser Tirius Serrett stood. Mance and Tirius locked eyes. Tirius had a cold as ice look in his eyes. His eyes traveled to the torches around the courtyard. It was clear he was obsessed with fire.
"Mance Rayder you've been call the-King-beyond-the wall. Westeros has only one ruler. Bend the knee and I promise you mercy from our one true Queen." Ser Tirius said.
Mance stared at him for a long moment. Tirius waited for some reaction. Mance's eyes went to Jon and to the Wildings in the courtyard. In the front of them was Tormund. Before his eyes came back to Ser Tirius.
"Kneel and live," Tirius spat out.
"This was my home for many years," Mance trail off looking around the courtyard one more time. He knew that this was the last thing he would see. Before his eyes locked on Tirius like he knew that Tirius was going die soon too. "I wish you good fortune in the wars to come," Mance finished.
Ser Tirius looked at him for a moment. Then he nodded his head to his two soldiers. They force Mance onto the platform. They locked his hands behind his back onto a wooden stake. They stepped off the platform and Ser Tirius stepped forward.
"We all must choose man or woman, young or old, Lord or peasant our choices are the same. We choose light or we choose darkness. We choose good or we choose evil. We choose the true God or the false." Ser Tirius preached. He turned toward the Wildings in the courtyard to address them. "Free folk, there is only one true ruler and her name is Raenera Targaryen. Here stands your King of Lies behold the fate of those who choose the darkness," Tirius said.
Ser Tirius was handed a torch. He lite all corner of the platform and the steps. He laid the torch on the platform. He stood back with a pleased with himself look on his face. Everyone watched until Mance started to make groaning and moaning sounds as the flames reached him. He tried in vain to fight the pain that was coursing through his body. Gilly looked away turning her face into Sam's shoulder. Sam placed his arm around her in a comforting manner. Allister Throne had the same look on his face as Ser Tirius. Tormund look lost at what to do. Jon could stand it no longer he pushed pasted Olly. Olly looked away at Jon for a moment. Suddenly an arrow pierced Mance heart before he started to scream in pain. His eyes locked on Jon with a bow in his hands.
The groundbreaking for the Great Sept had gone off without a hitch. Robb and Rae were now in the Throne room Lilliyan and Lyanna wherein Rae's arms as she sat next to Robb. He sat on the Iron throne with Torrhen on his lap. Daeny stood near Rae. She reached over picking up Lyanna from Rae's arms. Robb was dressed in normal doublet and pants with boots. Stark direwolf clasp held on his cloak. Torrhen was dressed in a similar way to his father. Ned and Tyrion stood the side of Robb. Rae, on the other hand, was dress in Dornish style gown. It was purple. It was the color of royalty. It was nearly see-through fabric. The gown was sleeveless with silver trim with direwolves and dragons sewn on the v neckline of the gown. It flowed to the floor slowly fading to a darker shade of purple. The top started out as lilac and faded to deep purple. Daeny was dress in a gown similar to one she was given to her in Qarth. Only it was now done in Reds and Blacks. Lyanna was dress in a gown similar to Rae's only it was Red. Lilliyan was dressed in green and gold like Daeny's gown. Daeny smile at Lyanna who played with metal on Daeny's gown. The direwolves lazed on the platform where the thrones sat. The pups were now growing fast they were the size that Lady and Nymeria were before Ned, Arya and Sansa left Winterfell with. Greywind and Starlight had grown even larger than a horse. Sansa walked by the side of Robb with Winter. She smiled over to Smalljon who stood on the side of Rae. She was dressed in Dornish style gown in teal color. It made her red hair look even more striking. Arya was dressed like a warrior as she approached arguing with Catelyn. Strom and Nymeria were following closest behind her. It looked like Catelyn dragged her from the training yard. Catelyn looked over to Robb and Rae with a slight bow and smile mouthing her apology. Ned tried not laugh at the look on Arya's face. They came to stand near Ned. There were some things that never changed.
Prince Oberyn approached the throne along with Ellaria Sand. Rae took in Ellaria Sand for the first time. She was an attractive eye-catching woman. Her eyes travel over to where Olenna and Willas Tyrell were standing. Olenna eyes were locked on Ellaria with a look of distaste. Rae could swear she saw her say "serpent's whore". Behind Ellaria were Prince Oberyn's daughters that came to fight.
"Your Graces, Dorne is pleased that the Sept of Rhaenys is begun to be built. It will cement Dorne's and the crown's ties to one another. My brother is very pleased with this fact. He extends his thanks and wishes me to tell you he will be present at the return of the dragon to the Iron Throne officially," Prince Oberyn said.
"Thank you Prince Oberyn," Robb said.
"My King, My Queen, may I present my daughters…" Prince Oberyn said. He motioned for his daughters to come forward. They looked like that were always fighting. The eldest one looked like she was wearing armor even now. The other two that were present at least had the decency to dress fitting in a gown. "This is Obara Sand, Nymeria Sand, and Tyene Sand. And my lovely paramour Ellaria Sand mother of Tyene and my younger daughters that you will meet later," Oberyn introduced them pointing each one out.
Tyene eyed Smalljon then her eyes traveled over to Bronn. She licked her lips looking at him. Bronn looked over to Tyrion to see what he made of them. Rae looked at them. She looked over to Robb unsure what to make of them.
"Welcome to Kings Landing. And I personally want to thank you for your part in retaking the Kings Landing. It is wonderful to have such competent fighters male or female," Rae said.
"We welcome you all to join in the celebration of the rebuilding of Great Sept," Robb said.
Hours later the party was in full swing. Oberyn had convinced Daeny to dance with him. Rae sat talking to Tyrion and Greatjon about things. Ellaria was talking to Catelyn. The sand snake stood in the dark corner looking at Rae. Robb was talking with Ned and Smalljon. The nurses came to take the triplets to bed. Arya was talking with Gendry. Jaime was dancing with Evalyne. Sansa was dancing Willas Tyrell. Robb's eyes traveled over to Rae who looked hardly at the dance pair of Willas and Sansa. He knew that something that Rae knew that he did not. He would find it out as soon as they were alone.
"That the Dragon Queen, she nothing more than another would be Queen," Obara said taking a drink of wine.
"Why would uncle swear support to her," Tyene said.
"It makes sense the closer to crown the closer he is to influence her," Nymeria explain.
"She does not look like she ever held a weapon in all her life," Obara said.
Starlight moved resting her head on Rae's lap. Rae's hand went to her direwolf head petting her behind her ears. She did not look up as she conversed happily with her uncle.
"No, but she has control over weapons we will never control," Tyene said.
Obara looked at her younger sister with disgust look on her face. They quickly got into an argument about that fact. The argument nearly went to weapons but was stopped by Ellaria coming over to them. She stopped them with a look. Nymeria eyed Oberyn dancing and flirting with Daenerys.
"What I don't see is why father dancing with a foreign whore," Nymeria said.
"She is the queen sister and her heir to Iron Throne. Right now the seven kingdoms are only held together by a marriage alliance between Robb Stark, King in the North and Queen Raenera Targaryen, Queen of Six Kingdoms. She granted the North its freedom. Your father knows this. And if convince Daenerys to marry him or even seduce her. She like arguing for Dorne freedom," Ellaria explained not least bit worried.
In fact, she was attracted to the other Dragon Queen or rather now the Dragon Princess. She would not be opposed to sharing her bed with Oberyn and Daenerys. They then notice Lord Varys approaching the Throne where Raenera sat. They watched as Lord Varys whispered in her ear. Ellaria saw a look on Rae's face she only ever saw in Riverrun when Stannis attack them.
"What," Rae roared much like a dragon.
It was enough to stop all music. It caused all eyes fall on her. It was clear the fire of Targaryen temper was very much present in Raenera Targaryen.
"Jaime, recall Ser Tirius to Capital." Rae roared.
Robb came over to her side seeing Rae's raging temper. He tried to sooth Rae but there was no calming the flames that now raged inside her. Jaime came forward bowing to her he was about to leave to do her bidding. He stopped for a moment.
"My Queen may I ask why," Jaime asked hesitantly.
"For a crime against the crown, but do not tell him that," Rae said.
"Sweetheart," Robb said.
It was enough for Rae to look at Robb. They locked eyes. Robb's eyes were filled confusion. While Rae's eyes were filled rage along with fear and tears near to the surface. They just stared at each other for a time. She closed her eyes blinking away the tears at loss of Mance Ryder life.
"I want his head on a spike, his body burning in dragon fire. How dare he," Rae raged.
"How dare he do what Rae my love what has he done," Robb asked.
"He used my name to murder Mance Ryder, the King Beyond the Wall. After the wall was secure, we order the Wall be secure. And any Wilding captured where to be held until we made it to the Wall. I did not order Mance death. But he dead now in my name because Ser Tirius got converted to Lord Of Light and thought it was fitting to burn a man alive," Rae raged.
Robb just pulled Rae's stiff body in his arms. He ran his hand down her curls. He looked over to his father and Tyrion loss as to what do with this information.
"And that is why father and uncle follow her," Nymeria said in horror at Rae temper.
