Long Live The King

Robert wasn't a good king, everyone knew that, but nobody could take the throne from him, the guy became smart when he was threatened, and no one knew that what was causing those moments of brilliance in the king was due to a spell casted on him by Harry to ensure nobody could take his throne and more importantly so he could defend North against anything while ignoring all the insults thrown his way. This helped so that Robert could oppose any punishment some of the members of the royal council were trying to impose on the North for his lack of respect against the king, even Lord Arryn the right-hand man of the king had shown on multiple occasions his displeasure for the North and Lord Stark had shown his support on this occasion. And well nobody knew about the small truce, Harry had with Jon either, Lord Stark had helped Tywin Lannister leave his majesty's ship to hide away and focus solely on taking care of his grandson and granddaughter, no one knew the reason for his retreat from the royal city. This was something that Jon Arryn could care less about since he would be able to gain back full control of the city and the royal assets.

Jon was the real king after all, Robert had confessed on multiple occasions his dreams of passing the crown and traveling to the free cities as a mercenary, so he could kill and sleep with prostitutes, believing this was the type of life meant for him. Oddly enough, the thought of having Joffrey sitting on the metal throne with his mother whispering in his ear what to do kept Robert on the throne, something that Jon was thankful for since his apprentice at least noticed the danger that Cersei Lannister posed to the kingdom, the woman was extremely vindictive, she hated any person that rises above her, the only one with the power to do so was her father. Still, everyone knew that no matter how much Cersei tried she would not be like her father, not for being a woman, not at all, you only had to look at some of the women who were monsters in political power like Olenna Tyrell, Ashara Stark or Elia Martell, women who in their right mind were to be feared at when it came to business deals, clearly there were many more women. Still, those three are the most dangerous with the power they had backing them up.

But now Jon was in a pickle, Robert had an accident while hunting in the royal forest, something had obviously occurred making Robert unable to kill the wild boar, which prompted him to make a small investigation to find out that Robert had a very rare type of alcohol that had never been seen before, it wasn't the wine produced by the Tyrell, nor a type of Northern produced drink. This was, in fact, something really odd, but there was only one person to suspect, Cersei Lannister, this only made Jon feel extremely happy since he now had ammo for blackmail, Joffrey might become king, but he would be a king Jon could control. Therefore before visiting Robert on his deathbed, since Jon was waiting for him to die, so he could create a prosperous kingdom with him leading and the Arryn as the top political and military power of the seven kingdoms. Because of this reason, Jon was now waiting for the queen in one of the many gardens of the Red Fortress. He still had to hide his happiness waiting until the exact moment to see Cercei defeated in front of him.

-"May I be informed as to why I was called Lord Arryn?" - Cersei arrived to meet with Jon who was calmly sitting. She was happy because Robert was about to die, if she could get away with it she would have placed a pillow over his face to suffocate him to death but she had to look sad.

-"I apologize for interrupting the conversation with your brother, or maybe I should say your lover." - Jon looked at Cersei who did not look fazed by the declaration, she had been warned by Harry Stark about Jon's investigation, and it was better to eliminate him before anything came to light - "You don't look surprised."-

-"The Targaryens have married brothers and sisters for over 300 years to maintain our blood purity, Jaimie and I are more than siblings." - Cersei was not going to get startled by Jon knowing about the incest between her brother and her, it wasn't problem because she knew her husband was going to die sooner or later, he was an old man after all - "We came to this world together and we will be together till the end of our lives."-

-"All of your children are from Jaime." - Jon hadn't noticed how calm Cersei was feeling, a small detail that she knew, Jon Arryn always portrayed a confident look, thinking that the truth gave him control over others was a foolish mistake from his part when someone has a secret, one should never show what they know, a form of retaliation must be used to cause fear.

-"Thank the gods, on the rare occasion that Robert left his hookers to climb my bed drunk, I made him finish in other ways." - Cersei practically seemed to be making fun of Robert, which she was, in fact, doing, why hide it, at some point she had loved a Robert Baratheon but that had ended far too long ago - "By the next day he doesn't even remember…but do not misunderstand my words Lord Arryn… I idolized him, every woman in the seven kingdoms dreamt of him but he was mine by vow," - a small amount of resentment formed, this was also helping Cersei vent a little - "When I saw him on our wedding in Baelor, it was the happiest day of my life and that night he laid on top of me and made what little he could, he whispered on my ear, Lyanna… he loved a corpse more than me… all that love disappeared and this is the result.

Joffrey will become king, I won't publish about that, but I suggest you go back to your home." - Jon looked at Cersei who was calm, a fact that did not bother Jon at all, he had the winning cards, but of course they weren't meant for this moment - "Robert was always infatuated with Lyanna Stark… she was the only woman he couldn't bring to his bed."-

North

Things up North were calmer now that Ashara, Lyanna, and Margaery came back from their small trip to Tyrell, there were still many lords who wished to visit King's landing to neuter Robert for the slander against the Northern princess. Lyanna respectfully asked her brother to never see that man again, therefore it was obvious that right now the gates to the North were closed to any man coming from the South. Still, Lord Stark asked for a reunion, and the bosses of each house came to Invernalia to learn what was happening, an emergency reunion didn't happen every day, which is why they were bothering Harry, something that many were expecting since they were impatient about the rebellion against the South. Nobody would oppose Harry, it was clear but many saw that the North had a lot of things on their side and understood perfectly that Harry wanted the South to be destroyed between themselves before attacking, the South was greedy and the North had to take advantage of this without falling from the same fault.

-"The stag is dead," - Harry was direct, he was not going to waste time, he had received two letters less than an hour ago from two different senders from King's Landing, a card from Cersei Lannister and the other one from Jon Arryn, his two supposedly allies, he of course wasn't foolish and answered with two letters anonymously in case one of the two got intercepted - "The coronation will happen next week… Cersei told me they will assassinate Jon, while Jon has said he will take the throne while Joffrey reaches adulthood… both ask for my presence to kneel to the future king."-

-"How dare those southerners, my Lord please let me attack the location of the kind,"- Richard Karstark spoke clearly angry, for the insult of the Southerners ordering the person they considered the true king, to kneel to such an insignificant person such as that bastard that was going to occupy the iron throne - "It is a complete disrespect to your person Lord Stark… I think that you as well as us have taken too much of it."-

-"The kid will die when his time comes, for now, it is necessary for him to live, so he can grow as many enemies as he can." - Harry said with a calm voice, his face was another thing entirely, he was mad, no that was not enough to describe the feelings Harry had at the moment, he was completely furious, a fury he would hold back for the betterment of the North - "Stannis and Renly Baratheon already have the truth about Joffrey… they will rise in rebellion, in the upcoming months, because they needed to arm up their army first."-

The kid could not stand Harry, and just like his father saw my adorable daughter as a prize to own, Harry prevented that - Ashara had to continue the conversation since her son was really mad, it was obvious that Harry would not be kneeling down to Joffrey nor anyone, if he went to King's landing it was the kid who would kneel - "When Stannis and Renlu raise in arms, we will support them for the crown… we'll exterminate the leader of the Baratheon… and we'll take one of Robert's bastards to occupy the position over the stormy lands."-

-"In the next weeks, we'll see who dies, if it is Jon Arryn we conquer the valley, if it is Cersei Lannister, we take the West… and I am more interested in the valley." - Harry took the conversation again in the reunion, the lords listen attentively to the words of their king, you could still see he was mad, but he did not let that control him and showed his leadership - "The valley and the North… had always had an animosity, if Jon Arryn dies the valley will fall to the hands of the North, making Cersei and her bastard understand the north supports the crown… Cersei and the bastard die, the Lannisters hold a rebellion… attack Roca Casterly, and take the West.

As a reward we wait for the crown to give us control over the said kingdom, just as it happened in the Iron Islands." - Margaery was content at the moment, the other lords understood they had to follow Harry's orders, they would wait until the right time came to strike - "They won't kill the wife of Jon Arryn, they won't even hurt a hair, since she is the sister in law of Ned GreyStark… they will go back to the lands of the rivers or stay on the north as political prisoners."-

-"My Lady, what is happening with the bastard that everyone thinks is the son of Jon - Lady Mormont spoke, it is true that in the north, bastards were treated nicely, but when bastards had the blood of enemies to the Northern kingdom, that goodness was thrown overboard - "What should we do with him, Little finger didn't care for the child, but his mother was crazy for him, since she knew who the real father was, as Lady Catelyn had said at some point he was a pawn for manipulation." - Margaery answered, that child is a bastard but has a purpose, with him they could manipulate the woman so that she betrays her father to get the land of the rivers to the north, but they need to rebel - "They just have to hold on for 7 years to hold control over the seven kingdoms.

I hope every one of you, controls your temper this has just begun." - Harry retook the lead of the conversation, because they needed all those present to understand, that until he doesn't order it nobody needed to do anything against the South because it could send all their plans down the cane - "We will use this time to grow the arms of our military, reproduction of livestock… the production of ships for big scale… for now the north is in favor of the crown… in seven years we'll be the crown."-

Everyone nodded, but there was someone dubious of the plan, that person being Ned GreyStark, the methods his nephew was using were not to his liking but he always followed Harry's instructions to a T regardless of his opinion. Even his wife was in favor of Harry's opinions, something he hadn't expected at the beginning since she came from the South, and knowing that Northerners were not as open to the in-laws it was surprising to witness Catelyn adapting to the North very few people were able to do it. So much so that Catelyn had agreed to let her two daughters stay in Invernalia for their education like they are supposed to, between all their kids the only girl that was disfavored by the Lords and especially the Ladies did not see Sansa's attitude with good eyes. This is because her biggest dream is to become the wife of King Joffrey, this was without a doubt disliked by many Northerners, including her own family, Benjin BlackSrark the uncle of Sansa was the first to mention that such an attitude was degrading to someone with Stark blood, and the person with most fault for this was no one else but Ned who had been too soft with his children.

Winterfell (Training camp)

Lyanna Stark was laying on the floor catching her breath after running for a fucking hour, she was getting Viking-style training at these moments, Nilsa was an extremely ruthless Viking. She was appointed to train Lyanna Stark, Arya GreyStark, and Susan GreyStark, none had the opportunity to refuse, there was no problem with Lyanna and Arya, both wished to become like Mia and Artemisa who sadly the girls were very far away from Invernalia. Arya had the dream of becoming a Valyria, she was the second daughter and was between the younger ones, in comparison with the Southerners who would search for stuff to do for their daughters or second sons, the North did not. North, each person had the freedom to choose what they wanted to become. It was not permitted to force them into a contractual marriage unless it was in extreme cases that would happen on rare occasions. Arya wished to become a Valyria, while Lyanna fished to become a Persa, since she was free of being forced into a contractual marriage with someone, she wished to become captain of Persa just as her two sisters were. Obviously, Senza was not a person who wished for those types of things, but she was forced by her mother and was not able to find refuge in her father becoming cornered. 

Sansa had a magnificent physique, even Nilsa had told her so, but she apparently wanted to be the damsel in distress instead, she had to be taught things by force, in case she was captured by an enemy of the north. Before they were able to be rescued, they would first be raped multiple times by different men who wouldn't care how much they screamed or struggled, even Margaery Stark, who's the wife of Harry, the strongest man in the seven kingdoms had a training regiment for self-defense, even if she spends most of her time near the Valquirias, and obviously under the kingdom known to be virtually impossible to enter if not for the main gates of the north call, she couldn't do less. Even if the girl does not like doing this, she has to accept those terms, in case she ends up getting married it was going to be with someone from the North. Sansa had been prohibited from leaving the North, Harry did not trust her, and while they were cousins, he knew her biggest dream was to get married to King Joffrey, he understood that Sansa would be willing to betray their family just to look good in front of her future husband, and that was not ambition, no, it was stupidity in its highest degree.

-"You bunch are very pitiful," - Nilsa spoke while looking at the three girls on the floor trying to catch their breath that they had lost by running for a freaking hour without stopping, this was a type of resistance training that would help them in lots of activities - 'It can't be that you are already tired from something so insignificant."-

-"You are too demanding, you need to have more mercy on my niece."- Arthur Dayne said as an act of presence, the brother of Ashara Stark who had to be hidden for some time so nobody from the South learn he was alive, they had assumed his death, but this was relatively false since he did not wish to go back home to support his parents - "Are you in a bad mood Nilsa?"-

-"Look here pretty boy, just because I use you to satisfy me during the night does not mean you are allowed to butt in with my training method for these three." - Nilsa looked at Arthur, the two were in a really complicated relationship because while Arthur admitted he was in a relationship, the Viking only argued that he was more of a sexual toy - "You have your own pupils… so tell me what do you want?"-

-"Lord Stark wishes for us to go on an expedition up north over the wall," - Arthur became serious, expeditions were always dangerous because one could become lost out there but now the risk had increased after confirmation of seeing white walkers outside after a long time and they weren't sure exactly when those would move away - "We leave in the morning… We'll spend a month searching for them… I ask you to take care of those three while I'm not here."-
