sir barriston seli but he is bound by his vows to the King's Guard he realizes that if he is to have a chance he will need more help taking a deep breath he orders Littlefinger to visit him in the

find a few trustworthy ones to give you enough time it's not just swords are need I require learned men those trained in healing advising and discretion a maesta he realizes that if pyel is cersei's creature he cannot be trusted for his treatment or any treatment for that matter he would need his maester in his household beyond that he would need to ensure that none of their messages are interrupted I'm saying that Robert is out in the Kingswood hunting a boar and I can provide you with more than a few mercenaries I can put a 100 swords in your hand and you can take the red keep when

more of this I ask for additional Guardsman in a maesta nothing more I trust you can see this done yes Lord hand little finger bows stiffly before leaving once he is gone Ned sinks back into his chair but doesn't allow himself to rest there is still more work to be done he takes up a quill in parchment and begins writing to Stannis telling him that he knows why he fled to Dragonstone and that he shares John Aaron's suspicions he urges Stannis to return to King's Landing to provide his support once the letter is completed Ned has his Guardsman send it instead of a raven until he has his maester he cannot trust pyel with any of his letters once he is gone Ned leans back and tries to get some rest for the next few days he tries to pretend as if nothing had happened until he receives a discreet message from Littlefinger who meets with him in one of the secret tunnels in the red keep Ned is surprised by these tunnels and Marvels at the sight these are just one of many tunnels that run across the castle and one of the only ones I know of knowledge like this makes it harder for a man to sleep it might fortunately for you I have a remedy that might help you sleep a bit easier from the Shadows nearly 20 men step forward all of them are Fierce and weathered dressed in well-worn male and bristling with weapons swords stks axes and Spears cell swords the last of them though is not a warrior instead a small man in Gray robes with several chains looping around his neck I called in more than one favor to get these men here I hope you use them wisely thank you Lord Bish this kindness won't be forgotten Ard immediately takes the maester and most of the sellswords into his service dressing them in his House's armor and adding them to his guard the other seven are scattered across the city Gates and tasked with monitoring them for any signs of the king however Ned suspects that Littlefinger has these men under his payroll and assigns one of his guards for each cell swword but as Ard continues his duties reports grow Grimmer and Grimmer he receives word first that a group of brigands have been raiding the riverlands and are rumored to be Gregor Clan although he sends baric dond Darian to deal with him part of him remains worried and wonders if this is a Prelude to a larger Invasion after catlin's capture of Tyrion it would be perfectly realistic to believe that Taiwan Lannister would retaliate part of him wishes to mobilize a larger response but until he has more proof of who these attackers are he cannot risk escalating the conflict meanwhile Cersei remains in the red keep and acts as if their conversation didn't happen it soon becomes clear that she will not follow his demands Ned must now plan how to deal with her beyond that there is also the safety of his family as he tries to find a way to get them out of King's Landing and back to the north these are the thoughts that keep him up at night until he hears a knock on his door a Guardsman appears and Bows his head apologies Lord star but one of the men you sent out has returned with a report sorry for the late hour my Lord but I thought you'd like to hear this right away I saw the king's party arriving in the mud gate indeed what did you see can't say who they were but but they all had a lordly look about them at least a dozen of them most of them grown men one big bastard though had a burnt face under his dog Helm he was riding alongside some golden-haired boy but there was a lit with them I couldn't see he was in it ard's eyes widen as a sense of for boing washes over him something terrible has happened and he can feel it in his gut quickly thanking the man for his report Ard has his guards and maester assembled he sends some guards ahead to the red keep Gates while he hobbles after them by the time he Don his clothes and hobbles down the steps one of the guards runs back and informs him that it is indeed the Royal party and they are making their way to the magger hold fast Ard orders the maester with him as they wait until the party disappears into the keep before joining them although surprised to see the hand awake at this hour no one is in a position to stop him as he enters the king's chamber Robert Baratheon breathes heavily on his bed the sheets are stained with blood that seeped through his bandages each movement even just breathing sends another wave of Agony across his body when Ned lifts his sheets he can see just how badly the boar gored him the blow went deep and they will need to act fast the maester quick gets to work starting to clean the wound while handing him milk of the poppy to dull the pain despite that Robert manages to smile Ned you look like a worried mother you know this isn't the first time I've bled and you look like a fool who decided to wrestle a bar my Meister is here to Tender you your wounds are more serious than you realize Robert grunts but allows the man to work footsteps echo in the hall and Cersei sweeps into the room her eyes narrowing as she spots Ard in the Stark maester tending to her husband pyel shuffles in behind her his hands folded Lord hand it's late I trust you can explain why you're here especially with your maester king Robert's wounds needed tending my maester was closest I shall take over lord Stark with all due respect the grand maester must tend to the royal family the king requires a more practiced hand my maester has already started his work stopping now could make matters worse Lord Stark I don't believe it's your place to decide who treats the king my Lord you need your strength the Bor nearly took your life think of the Kingdom the children please let pel take over enough a lot of you Starks men stays pel you can advise him but don't hover over me like a damned vulture the board didn't kill me woman Ned will see I live to drink another day cersei's eyes flash with frustration but she holds her tongue her gaze flicking toward pyel who frowns but nods stiffly the queen soon departs leaving them alone the Stark maester continues his work applying a fresh pus to the wound and Whispering quiet reassurances to Robert whose grunts of pain soften slightly Ard keeps a steady hand on Robert's shoulder his face tense as his friend's palar grows seeing the situation ease Ned takes his leave but continues to visit Robert every day when not busy with his duties he gives regular reports on the happenings around the Seven Kingdoms and inquires about Robert's health for a while it seems as if the king's days are numbered as his face remains Ashen and he can barely stand with even small movements being painful Ned stays by his side offering silent prayers to the old gods knowing that the fate of the realm depends on Robert's survival but soon things begin to look up as the maer's consistent care begins to improve Robert's condition he eventually can sit up and there's less pain in his face one day Ned even enters to the sound of Robert laughing as he flirts with a servant girl serving him wine it seems the king's recovering well thank the gods for that Meister of yours and his soft touch now if only he were a woman it's good to have you back Robert the realm needs you I need you you would have ruled just fine without me I wasn't talking about as a king I someone needs to remind you how to laugh Ned truth be told sometimes I forget myself the Iron Throne is a great responsibility they never taught us that in the war I used to think fighting was the hardest part but sitting on that damned chair every day listening to every fishmonger complain and lordling asking for something it's enough to drive a man insane sometimes I lose myself to that Throne when that ball ran me through I felt more alive than I did in 15 years on that thing Robert you were right about that targarian girl Ned killing her would have been a mistake spread the word whoever tries to take her head will lose his that should scare off the assassins and if it were your own children Robert would the decision be any different what are you talking about Ned hesitates but his gaze is steady Cersei and Jamie the children aren't yours Robert there's a moment of stunned silence as Robert stares at Ned disbelief and anger flickering across his face but Ned takes a deep breath and recounts everything John Aron's death his own investigation and cersei's confession in the godswood with a roar he throws his goblet against the wall shattering it he sits up but ends up grimacing however he refuses to lean back but just as quickly the anger disappears replaced by anguish how could this happen how long have I been blind you did the best you could damn it Ned I didn't bring you here to have another flatterer you allowed it to thrive I did my best to warn you as did John Aaron and your brother stalis damn you Stark damn you in your honesty I thrive in Fester sometimes I think n should have let tyan L to take the throne just gave him what he wanted a miserable notion Robert the realm would suffer more than you can imagine under Lister rule so what then Ned what solution do you have we can't let the Lannister remain unchecked arrest Cersei she won't go quietly nor will Tywin take it lying down especially after what you told me in the M's Fort we'll have to act swiftly you'll need to be ready Robert if I'm to keep my Throne I'll have to fight for it but by the gods Ned I can't do it alone the next day the throne room is packed the tension thick as Ned's Stark strides through the hall his guards and cell swords flanking him the crowd murmurs in confusion and anti anticipation wondering why they were called here by the hand near the Iron Throne Cersei sits proudly with Joffrey Seated on the throne their cold triumphant gazes fixed on Ned around them Lannister Guardsmen and King's guards stand ready with the gold cloaks lining the Hall giving Ned a grim sense of how outnumbered he is by decree of King Robert Baratheon I have been named Regent in the event of his death or incapacity ation until such that his Heir Stanis barathan can claim his rightful seat this was the king's will written by his own hand cersei's lips curl into a scornful Smile as she Rises to address him the king's will or the words planted in his mind by a northern maester while he lay on his deathbed poisoned by pain I witnessed to King's return Lord Stark and I can tell you he is in no state to make such a decision he was fevered babbling murmurs Ripple through the court as Cersei raises her hand her voice taking on a Steely Edge stand down lord Stark you were brought here as my husband's friend yet you conspire to steal his crown you disgrace him with this treachery the Lannisters do not suffer betrayals lightly her guards shift forward hands on their swords Ned's own guards ring around him prepared to fight to the death to protect their Master a tense silence follows everyone waiting for the next move the two sides inch closer together but before anyone can strike a booming voice Echoes through the hall enough stop this madness in the Name of the King all heads turned to see Robert himself striding through the hall leaning on his Warhammer but with fire in his eyes the murmurs of the courtier run in shock and confusion as he steps forward his presence cutting through the room like a blade Robert you would raise your swords against my hand against a man acting under my orders I am ashamed of having such men as my protectors and I am ashamed of myself for being so blind to see it but I see now now throw that steel down to those white cloaks won't be the only things you lose the King's Guard shift uncomfortably lowering their weapons their loyalty suddenly uncertain under their King's withering glare the Lannister Guardsmen and the gold cloaks do the same only the Hound remains with his sword ready and you dog will I need to chastise you long live the king he lets his sword drop to the ground as Robert advances onto the thr Throne glaring down at Joffrey you're on my seat boy Joffrey trembles and quickly scurries away allowing robbert to Lean Back Against The Iron Throne this is my shame I let myself grow weak and soft and this court has grown full of schemers and flatterers and as for you wife I've turned a blind eye for too long so barriston I know you is the best amongst the King's Guard poor crop they may be take her and the children into custody and you Joffrey I will see you disciplined yet with Cersei and the children removed Robert lowers himself onto the Iron Throne though pain flickers across his face he looks out over his court this court will know one thing from now on the Iron Throne belongs to the King Alone any who place their ambition above the Realms will face Justice the hall is silent each face a mixture of shock fear or relief as Robert settles back his fingers gripping the armrests of the iron throne for the first time in many years he truly looks like a king Standing Tall and proud he glances at Ned giving a brief nod when he returns as the last of the Lannisters are LED away it comes time to to address more pressing matters renley brings ill news as there is now open war in the riverlands with started his raids turned out to be just a Prelude to a fullscale Invasion with Jaime leading a host to besiege riverrun and Tywin making his way up North to claim every Castle in town not all news is grim though as there are also reports of northmen gathering at the neck to face them but they cannot do it alone Robert decides to confront the Lannisters too Gathering an army from the crown lands and the stormlands and riding out to face them Ned meanwhile is ordered to hold King's Landing until Stannis arrives are you sure that's wise Your Grace Ned I may not have much skill in ruling but I know how to win a war don't worry I won't try anything foolish a few days after the king departs accompanied by a few handpicked Knights reports come in of a large Fleet approaching King's land ING with Stannis at their head Ned decides to meet Stannis face to face the sound of waves crashing against the hall fills the air as Ned strides up the gang plank to meet stennis on the deck of his Flagship the two men stand face to face so my brother reached all the way to the north for his hand instead of summoning his brother you would have been a fool to accept such an offer I know you fear for your life rightly so you were right stanard but Cersei and the children they're not Robert's blood stannis's face tightens though he tries to hide his satisfaction treason of the highest order then I know my brother couldn't have learned that one on his own and what do you intend to do now that the truth is known serve the rightful heir to the Iron Throne sove you stun us for a brief moment a flicker of surprise crosses St his face but he quickly hides it and Bows his head I expected no less from you Stark thank you Robert wouldn't have made this decision on his own he would have sooner named you air than me he's always had a soft spot for you he may be soft but he knows loyalty he knows Justice and Justice demands that you are his Heir so where is the king now where else in the front H what else did I expect he rides off to get all the glory while we remain here to do all the hard work all right then I suppose we should begin cleaning the house starting with the traitors meanwhile in the southern fields near riverrun Tywin Lannister is seated in his command tent discussing his next moves with his Bannerman just just as a scout bursts in my Lord the barathan banners have been sighted on the horizon 8,000 strong and bearing the crown stag he glances around the tent noting the subtle expressions of uncertainty on the faces of some of his bannermen it was one thing to go to war in the riverlands but to strike at the king's own troops that was treason so my good brother has come for his crown very well we will meet him with diplomacy order the men to make Camp here we will send an Envoy To The King The bannermen Exchange weary glances but are happy to hear they will not fight dispersing to relay the orders once the tent is nearly empty Tywin signals to Gregor Clan Amory Lurch and Vargo hot who remained behind you three gather a company of picked men I want no Lannister banners no sigils when night falls strike at the barathan forces kill as many as you can and send the rest scattering Gregor Clan grins wickedly while Emory lch and Vargo hot exchange knowing looks there must be no chance of this treachery falling back to us take your best and bring me Robert's head Robert baratheon's forces are assembled in a loose formation preparing to break Camp sander Cain embarrassed in SEL me stand nearby weapons ready while Robert inspects his Warhammer testing its weight the calm morning air is shattered as shouts of warning Echoes across the camp taiwans picked men led by Gregor Gan Armory Loach and Vargo hot descend on the camp Gregor's weight allows him to smash through the feeble defenses throwing aside men with his great sword while behind him the mountains men and brave companions cut through tents and soldiers alike the barathan troops scrambled to form lines but the attackers strike fast and viciously Robert lets out a roar raising his Warhammer and charging toward The Fray to me rally to your king the barathan forces bolstered by Robert's presence and Baron's discipline begin to Rally they secure the king's tent and slowly begin to push forward expanding their area of control as the Lannister's men lose their momentum while they press forward Robert is in the front roaring and Swinging his hammer crushing anyone foolish enough to get in his path they come across Aries oakheart who cuts down Amry lch with a small group of men and rushes to join him more of tywin's forces begin to falter witnessing the king's wrath Gregor Caine seeing his men routing orders a retreat and rides out the same way he came Robert chases down the retreating men until they scatter into the woods once they are gone they turn to the Lannister Camp treason Tywin Lannister sent you lot to kill me lay down your arms I taste my hammer he catches sight of taiwan's many remaining bannermen lowering their weapons some dropping them all together in surrender the surrender spreads quickly as more Western Men cast down their weapons Robert's men take stock of the battlefield strewn with fallen soldiers from both sides the field is yours your grace what shall we do with the prisoners bind them they'll answer for their crimes and Tywin Tywin will be brought to me in Chains as the sun rises higher the field is littered with Lannister banners the loyal barathan men standing Victorious around their King the few remaining traitors kneel before him awaiting their fate for his crimes Tywin is executed along with Kevin Cersei and his leading bannermen Jaimie meanwhile is executed by Rob Stark under orders of Robert Baratheon cardly rock is placed under the stewardship of Stannis who is tasked with keeping the Western lands under control Tyrion disappeared after the battle and is rumored to have escaped with his clansmen to the mountain of the Moon the Hound is tasked with rooting them out after he's done chasing off and dealing with the mountain meanwhile Joffrey and his siblings are spared execution thanks to the intervention of Ned instead Joffrey is sent to the north as a hostage my Cella will remain in the King's Landing and tommen will accompany Stannis to the westerlands if they prove Pro to be loyal Servants of the crown they shall be granted Castle Rock renley meanwhile arranges a marriage alliance with the tyrells to keep them loyal with marjerie marrying Robert and Garland marrying Sansa with his near brush with death Robert takes his duties far more seriously and with Ned as his hand the two guide the realm into a new period of prosperity the marriage ceremony between Robert and margorie takes place several months after the war in the riverlands Lords and Ladies from all across the Seven Kingdoms even those who joined Tywin are invited to participate as a gesture of Goodwill in that time the realm has begun to heal from this short but violent War thanks in large part to Ned Stark but part of the credit also goes to Robert his near brush with death awakened something in the barathan king an old fire that many thought was long gone for the first time in his life Robert truly begins acting like a king he moderates his drinking and spending while spending more time attending small Council meetings the first thing he does is remove Varys the spider Grand maester pyel sir Marin Trant sir Boris blunt suppressed in Greenfield and many other courtier even his brother renley Baratheon loses his seat after abandoning Ned Stark though he is allowed to keep Storm's end together Ned and Rob begin finding replacements for these positions one of the first names on their list is Loris Tyrell who is given a position in the Kings guard this is done to further strengthen the burgeoning alliance I between the crown and the tyrells the marriage between margerie and Robert helps bring them together but they do not stop there Robert also begins repairing the relationship with Dorne by sending them the heads of Taiwan Lannister and the mountain after he's found one of his biggest challenges is repairing the riverlands from this war huge sums of money are spent to rebuild ruined Villages and castles this rebuilding and Ned's pardon ensures Robert also maintains the Loyalty of the North and the riverlands meanwhile St andison renley holding the westerlands keep them in line This ensures Balon Greyjoy doesn't attempt his Rebellion the only place that remains uncertain is the veil which continues to be ruled by Lysa Aaron and gives little contact with the rest of the Seven Kingdoms but barring these local threats like tyrion's Mountain Clans the Seven Kingdoms are at peace and allow the new small Council to address their enormous debt taiwan's debts are considered invalid leaving only the iron bank and the faith forcing Robert to cut down on his lavish lifestyle to make matters worse they lose Littlefinger as well though his assistance of Ned Stark spares him from removal he voluntarily steps down my lords I regret to inform you that I feel the need to resign from my position though I am grateful for the honor you've given me to serve as master of coin I believe it is high time I return to the Veil The Veil now with all mountains Clans been running a muck and ler doing seven knows what it odly seems like the tee you'd be running to Lord Bish my our King has such a way with words but that is precisely why I feel the call of home I must do my part to ensure the king's peace in the veil while I am no great warrior or Commander I have long been friends with Lady Aaron and hopefully I may advise her that is with your permission that wi of yours will be sorely missed here little finger that and your magic with money but I will not stop you go then and I wish you great luck with that woman and be careful or Peter the high roads are dangerous now and I know the Imp has no love for you your concern is appreciated Lord Stark but I've survived far worse than the dwarf when Robert isn't handling matters of the ruling he is using his new free time not drinking or whoring to train in the yart it has been many years since he had begun training but the recent excitement was an eyeopener for him the first was his recent battle against Tywin although a success and victory for him Robert could feel the difference in his strength compared to his Rebellion the other is his marriage to margorie Tyrell with the queen so much younger than him and surrounded by her Gallant looking Brothers Robert is actually aware of how different he must appear to them older fatter drunker closer to her oish father while Marjorie doesn't say anything he can sense the Judgment in her and vows to become strong he tasks this job to barriston sel me who is ordered not to hold back in their sparring sessions the legendary Knight is true to his word and repeatedly humbles Robert but this only pushes the king harder to meet his challenge however this piece is Shattered by the Anvil of the knight's watch representative sir Alis Bears the hand of a dead Ranger and warning of the others at first Roberts and disb belief but Ned takes these threats seriously especially as his brother disappears beyond the wall and urges him to send troops for a start they empty the Dungeons and have all the men sent to the wall but these only number a few dozen Robert orders that some of the houses that sided with House Lannister provide some men as punishment for the wall the north also volunteers men and the riverlands as many men lost everything and the wall will at least provide them with shelter and companionship they managed to scrape up a force of about 2,500 men who March to the wall and not a moment too soon an army soon arrives on the wall not the hords of whites that Alistair warned about but wildlings led by man's Raider with the extra reinforcements they find all castles garrisoned and ready the battle is one-sided as the wildling forces are smashed allowing the Victorious Knights watch to dictate the terms many are happy to Simply let the wildlings starve Bey on the wall but Jon Snow Advocates letting them in He suggests that they be forced to yield their weapons and add their numbers to the knights watch and settle in the new gift but this is just the start of their problems the recent wildling incursion only confirms the presence of the white walkers as wildlings verify this report and survivors of the great raging report being attacked by them news soon reaches the court and the mood changes instantly from the laughter and mockery that hamper alistar's early visit many now realize how serious the situation is Ned takes command of these Affairs as Warden of the north but as their gaze turns North trouble begins to brew in the east as rumors abound of the mysterious Daenerys Targaryen there are reports of her summoning dragons of her taking control of slavers Bay and now they claim she plans on turning her Army West to the Seven Kingdoms to reclaim the Iron Throne The Mention Of The Targaryen name sends Robert's blood boiling one thing that hasn't changed from the days of his youth is his hatred for that family suddenly Robert seems like he's 20 years younger as he begins planning for her arrival with new energy taking only a small group of trusted men he rides across the land the years of training have done their part as he loses much of his excess weight and shaves his beard looking closer to the Mighty Hero he was during the Rebellion meanwhile he's accompanied by his beautiful wife and her Gallant brother alongside barriston the Bold this makes for an inspiring sight for commoners and Nobles alike coupled with his natural Charisma Robert can bring most of the realm together most but not all as some remain distrustful of him in the South renley never fully forgave Robert for removing him as master of law especially after he secured the marriage between him and margorie though he never shows it he secretly seees and waits for an opportunity to strike the same is true for Littlefinger who still hasn't forgotten about his Ambitions to the the throne and has spent these years consolidating his hold over the veil while the Lords distract him his position as L's husband ensures that he cannot be actively threatened when they hear of the Dragon Queen's rise both secretly send Messengers to treat with her offering their aid they are soon joined by a second Ally the golden company led by John connington and young Griff at first Daenerys is skeptical but the promise of the golden company convinces her and they soon set sail but as they reach the narrow sea the fleet splits into two the golden company sails toward the stormlands where renley promises them easy passage Tarth is the first to fall as renley already storms it with his men and allows the golden company to begin landing on the mainland however ships from house seaworth slip past and inform the capital soon the Royal Fleet arrives to challenge this land outnumbered nearly 10 to one the golden company ships stand no chance but as the Royal Fleet approaches a roar Echoes from The Straits of Tarth from the woods Trio of shapes takes flight their wings darkening the sky as daenerys's dragons Loom overhead all three hovering over the ships dodging crossbow bolts and arrows as they counter with fire pillars of flame erupt forward burning the first rank of war galys and setting the rest into a panic ships desperately tried to escape The Inferno by turning around and running these crash into each other making it impossible to maneuver dozens of Warships go up in Flames as through the burning wreckage the golden company sails for the mainland those ships that do Escape find themselves harried by ships loyal to renley barathan when at last the golden company makes landfall in the stormlands they find storms end's Gates wide open hearing this Robert is furious and begins mobilizing his army to confront them he rushes South to confront them along with the tyrells and Martel who are also assembling their host however with their Royal Fleet in disarray this leaves the second Fleet to land almost unopposed in the veil of Aaron the city of gtown is unprepared as the first ships emerge from the Mist the guards barely have the chance to raise the alarm before the freed men and cells swords leap down their ships followed closely by the unsullied they rush through the streets and although the city watch and whatever soldiers remain in the city put up a good fight they are badly outmatched and most are either killed or forced to surrender houses Grafton and Aaron of gtown both are defeated Ed and forced to surrender to Dario whose golden tooth flashes as he smiles hardly worth my time I hope the other Lords of the veil will be more entertaining as the smoke of G Town's defeat rises in the air reports circulate of the veil with their Lords all rushing to mobilize their armies some rush to retake goldtown While others move to block passes or defend their lands but little finger proves his worth once again he sends false reports of their locations numbers and plans Veil men March through the empty battlefields rush to defend unimportant locations or are simply too intimidated to leave their castles some even join their forces with advancing Targaryen forces the few forces they face are easily swept aside allowing the unsullied in the cell swords to make a Lightning Charge across the veil until they reach the bloody Gates thanks to littlefinger's efforts most of its Garrison and supplies are gone when the uned arrive to their surprise The Defenders are ordered by Lysa Aaron to Simply let them pass Littlefinger simply Whispers to her ear saying that once they are through it shall be the remaining six kingdoms problems the only real challenge they face is Tyrion thousands of clansmen descend the mountain to raid them but they are not strong enough to stop the unsullied who reach the lowlands once in the riverlands their forces spread out and begin their campaign the unsullied move through the riverlands their disciplined formation striking fear Into the Heart of the rivermen cells swords and freed men ride ahead capturing FS and crossing for them to pass but facing stiff resistance from the river Lords they initially try to group up and face them head-to-head but even their much vaunted Knights are no match for the disciplined ranks of the unul or the Relentless Fury of the cells swords and Freedman the Knights of the veil who do ride with them only add to the chaos scattering their forces this leaves the riverlords to switch tactics instead using the rivers to their advantage blocking off choke points and launching hit and run before using barges to disappear this Harries them across the region with the river Lords using the superior knowledge of their surroundings to terrorize the Targaryen forces but their efforts soon pay off as soon after Stannis departs from the westerlands leading a large host that is further stiffened by a small contingent of Northman sent by Ned who is still organizing the Wall's defense unlike The Reckless early attacks made by the hot-headed riverlords Stannis approaches this with cool discipline they strike first at the fair market where greyworm and attempts to break through their defenses but while the unsullied managed to March inside the westerosi soldiers break their ranks turning it into a melee where the knights have the advantage and force the unsell to break off meanwhile handpicked Warriors like Mark Piper Lord Vance and the Blackfish lead raids across the Targaryen support lines while Stannis constantly Shadows their forces waiting for the opportunity to strike and deny them favorable terrain but while greyworm has discipline Dario Naharis has creativity launching night raids and ambushes that hamper stannis's war effort with their path to riverrun blocked greyworm turns the Army South to heren Hall here they have more success with house Wentz so depleted but as the castle Falls Stannis turns his host South to confront them he sends out Adam marbrand with a large force of Cavalry and sweeps into their wings this time the outnumbered Knights of the veil are unable to Halt their attack their breaking doesn't allow the uni to form up and they are forced to retreat inside the castle leaving Stannis to lay Siege to the ancient castle meanwhile further south the golden company fortifies their position at storms End bolstered by Rebel stormlands who have rallied to their cause the banners of the Griffin and the Stag fly side by side as John conon and renley Baratheon join their armies but the force they face is larger than the force they fought in the Trident men from the crown lenss stiffened by loyalist stormlands Spears from Dorne and the Cavalry of the reach all led by robt himself whose Fury knows no bounds after hearing of his brother's betrayal the first major engagement erupts at summer Hall where the combined forces of the tyrells and dornish clash with the golden company in a bloody melee the dornish spearm face off against the disciplined failes of the golden company while Tyrell Knights attempt to outflank The Mercenaries with their Cavalry against lesser foes this would have been a sound strategy but the golden company do not break and renley storm Lords fight with Zeal they their knowledge of the terrain choosing ground favorably to their environment despite their Valor the loyalist forces suffer heavy losses especially when the golden company brings in their war elephants which smash through the dornish and reach Center the flanks try to envelop them but the right flank Goes Up in Flames as daenerys's dragons descend on them this is just as Robert's forces arrive he rallies the remainder of the army and organizes a Counterattack as they Advance towards black Haven this time he leads his forces from the center blocking their advance and striking hard into their forces the king looks like a hero from a fairy tale his antlered helmet making him appear like a giant while his sword slices through foes like carving a cake as the elephants Advance the dornishmen launch a feain retreat dropping calps and spikes as they run causing the elephants to rear up in pain momentarily paralyzed and allowing them to Target their handlers meanwhile the reach forces led by Randall tarley pressed the golden company hard but suddenly the dragons descend and the center Goes Up in Flames their Shadows consuming the walls of black Haven as they see the distinctive shape of Robert's armor they open their mouths to fire again but suddenly viserion screams in pain as he goes low and a baseline bolt strikes him across the neck causing his fire to shoot out wildly instead of striking Robert directly it throws him off his horse and sends him crashing to the ground viserion tumbles a short distance away John conington rushes through with his men spotting Robert barian's body amidst the dead half burnt with his armor dented at the stomach from a mace but as they remove his helmet they are shocked to see the face underneath is none other than baric Dandan suddenly his eyes open and a pained smile fills his face what who better to be a king's body double than a man who can't die he suddenly seizes his dagger and surges forward driving it across Jon's neck the two men stare at each other in Sur surprise sorry John but we serve different Kings suddenly warhorns sound from behind as the real robber bursts from nearby Woods striking the disorganized Targaryen host as they are too busy surging forward although the barathan suffer heavier losses the loss of a dragon sends the rebel forces wavering and they are now forced to withdraw Robert wishes to pursue as his men's Spirits are raised by the death of aerion but as he organizes his forces a rider approaches this one from the north the man is Haggard with his black cloak and tatters and blood spattered on his face but his message cannot wait the wall has fallen while Ned had busily fortified the wall Jon Snow tried to rescue the wildlings at hard home but this proved to be a huge failure not only did the effort fail but the whites took control of the ships and sailed around the wall to strike at East watch by the Sea this gave the white walkers an opening to pour through the breach the knight's watch is doing everything to try and hold them off but it's no use they need the full might of the seven Kingdom if they are to survive Robert looks around the battlefield taking in the Carnage this was already one of the bloodiest battles he'd ever fought and yet he can't imagine the chaos that must be gripping the north part of him wants to send his army out to crush these Rebels as quickly as possible and March to Ned's aid but he knows there will be no time there is only one solution as the sun rises over the battlefield Robert stands over the Carnage waiting to see if his message was received not long after three figures ride out to join him renley Daenerys and young Griff the wall is Fallen the air in the tent turns colder than the Winds of the far north this isn't wildlings though it's something worse the white walkers they're pooring South and if we don't stop them all this will be gone you expect us to believe in Tales of ice demons and dead men stories told to frighten children a few years ago there were no dragons either are you prepared to dismiss what I've seen with my own eyes this isn't about the Thrones anymore it's about survival you expect us to abandon this war all for the words of a single Rider you're mad than Aries no he's acting like a king should perhaps you should take some notes pup I've already sent orders stennis will lift The Siege at herin Hall and March North to meet us you can confirm with your unic or your pet cell swword but while you're squabbling over a crown I will fight for my people they'll drown this land in ice and death and you would trust us with this why not crush us here and now then March North on opposed Robert lets out a bitter laugh you think I'd tell you this if it were a ruse I'm a warrior boy I'd like nothing more than to crush you but what what will I be fighting for a graveyard if these creatures are as terrible as you say then you have my dragons fine I suppose the world is worth saving very well then I'll send word to my forces in Winterfell Ned Stark stands at top the battlements as thousands of whites batter against the gates only stopped by a mly band of northmen from different houses the remnants of his army that tried to stop the Dead the castle is strong but Ned knows it will not hold forever the dead do not tire then through the howling wind a sound unlike any other cuts through the night the first dragon bursts to the storm clouds its fiery breath a streak of light in the darkness moments later another follows Fire Burns through the ranks of the undead allowing the combined host of the Seven Kingdoms to rush through northmen vilmen dornishmen rivermen ironborn westermen stormlands richmen unsullied and the fredman charge into the chaos the dragons dive unleashing torrents of flame that carve through the ranks of whites turning the Frozen Battlefield into a blazing Inferno using the knowledge given to them by the knights watch they are armed with dragon glass weapons that carve through the whites at the center of the chaos Robert Baratheon fights like a man possessed his Warhammer swinging and crushing foes his men rally behind him emboldened by their King's Fury is that all you've got come on you bloody Corpses you're not taking Winterfell nearby Daenerys rides drogon her silver hair streaming in the wind thinning the Dead's numbers but even the might of the Dragons is not enough to stem the tide entirely greyworm and the unsullied form an impenetrable shield wall watching their flanks young Griff rides a top an elephant barreling through the whites and advancing toward Winterfell with the golden company in their flanks Stannis and renley command Cavalry units and cut through the masses of Undead in the thick of melee Robert SP is a figure unlike the others tall clad in icy armor and wielding a blade that glows with frost the night King Robert razors defiantly and swings his hammer against his chest the night king turns meeting Robert's charge with an eerie calm raising his chilling blade their weapons Clash the impact sends shock waves across the battlefield for once Robert finds a foe stronger than him blow after blow Rains Down on Robert and For the First Time The Storm low his for forced to retreat blood seeping from wounds torn into his armor though Robert gets a blowing that cracks the night King's chest plate this barely slows him down and a blow from the night King sends Robert tumbling to the ground the night King raises his sword for the killing blow but then from the gates of Winterfell A desperate cry Rises young Griff whirls his elephant around tossing whites aside as Jon Snow robs Stark and Ned lead a final charge out of the castle They smash into the rear of the undead horde scattering the whites and drawing the night King's attention away from Robert as Jon rushes up to the night King and Crosses swords with him while Ned pulls Robert away and drags him to safety Robert struggles to rise as Jon clashes with him long claw humming as it connects with the sword although Jon fights with everything he's got it's clear he is no match for the night King and he begins to back away with the last surge of strength Robert rushes forward and swings his hammer down at the night King's knee shattering it and sending it tumbling over as he topples to the ground Jon buries longclaw into his throat suddenly the Dead all around them crumble apart as the night King shatters into nothingness by Dawn only the living remains standing but the question of the Iron Throne remains to everyone's surprise Robert comes up with an answer he shall step down as king at first no one can believe it but he insists he says the only reason he continued as King was to fix his mistakes now the best way he can do that is by appointing a worthy successor after seeing Griff and Daenerys fighting side by side he feels confident in their abilities so in the halls of Winterfell surrounded by the great Lords and Ladies of the Seven Kingdoms Robert renounces the crown and instead takes up a life of a cell sword the golden company readily accepts Robert as the captain General while Griff and Daenerys are wed and made to rule as king and queen Robert leaves the north with much fanfare is bannermen and friends all tearfully cheer his name while unsullied clashed their Spears even Stannis and renley put aside their differences to wish their brother well in the air dragons Roar and blow bursts of fire and salute but the last person to say goodbye is Ned Stark as Robert departs the two exchange a few kind words in Embrace before the former King sails off soon the singers across the Seven Kingdoms sing of the cells sword king and
