The maester emperor

by NumitorAlbaLonga

a rewrite. When Baelon Targaryen died, the old king offered the throne to his third son, which he declined. But what if he had accepted? A washed-up genius is reincarnated into the most unexpected Targaryen, changing the fate of Westeros forever. But he will have to deal with a multitude of challenges to carry out his mission.

2. Chapter 2

Clarifications;

First of all, I have modified several of the details of the novel.

To begin with, Vaegon is fifty instead of 38 years old, as I have decided to age him to give him a greater air of maturity. Another important thing is that I have modified the order of Jaehaerys and Alysanne's children, with theirs being the child immediately after Baelon, and before Alyssa.

Another important fact is that Vaegon himself was identical to George RR Martin's description. However, I have to apply certain things. However, as the story progresses he will receive memories from his host. On the other hand, in relation to Vaegon, there are a series of personal conflicts that the original does not have, and that can cause him more than one problem.

Aaron Stark, before dying, had read the book Fire and Blood so he has certain knowledge about that world. But having died before reaching that world, the protagonist has certain limitations.

1) The protagonist cannot reproduce nor is he sexually livid. Therefore, his heir cannot be a direct descendant.

2) This leads to the emergence of three sides instead of two. The blue (House Velaryon, the branch of Prince Aemon, based on his daughter Rhaneys) the black (the branch of Baelon the Brave, led by Viserys and Daemon) and the third faction composed of the red (the branch of Saera Targaryen and their children)

3) The next king must be from one of these factions, so Vaegon must be careful that a civil war does not break out.

On the other hand, it is a choral story, so at first the story will be told from the points of view of;

1) Vaegon

2) Rhaenys

3) Corlys

4) Gaemon (Saera's son)

5) Valerion (son of Saera)

6) Viserys

7) Daemon

8) Laenor

9) Rhaenrya

10) Otto Hightower

11) Laena

An important note of Vaegon's objectives;

a) Transform the economy of Westeros, that is, carry out an industrial revolution, or at least reach the economic and technological level of the completed first industrial revolution (1840)

b) Go from feudalism to an absolute monarchy, although guaranteeing a series of rights and obligations similar to those included in the letter granted by Louis XVIII after the restoration.

c) Reorganize the state and the army to face the threat of the white walkers.

d) End the weakening and disappearance of dragons.

e) Maintain a balance of forces between the different factions of the house of the dragon.

f) Achieve all the objectives already mentioned and not die trying.
