The Lion and the Wolf

Domeric and Mellara reached Essos and they were alone together a few weeks until Mellara stole money from a man so she and her brother could eat.

But that man she stole from was Ser Arthur Dayne. And he knew so he followed her and he grabbed her and Domeric. He soon found out that Mellara and Domeric are the Queen's mother nephew and Niece.

Lyanna could not understand how nor why they were in Essos. So they told their aunt the truth. Lyanna was not surprised by Cersei's actions. Lyanna told her nephew and niece that they made the right choice on leaving king's landing. Lyanna took them in, also showing Aegon Targaryen, Lyanna's first born son and Daenerys Targaryen.

Daenerys found Aegon after a while on her own. When she was earning her bearings for the iron throne. When she met Aegon, which she knew was her nephew, Daenerys thought she was alone but she still has family. And more added to the knights that helped raise Aegon to the youngest Stark children.

So Mellara and Domeric were trained in the ways of fighting. The training took over years, to make themselves warriors, true Starks.

In king's landing there was an investigation on the murder of Loras Tyrell and to see how had a hand in it.

Queen Margaery wanted answers. She had some feelings that it was Cersei but she could not prove it. Margaery needed to be smart about her next steps.

Cersei was growing into more power while in King's landing. She even become pregnant my her brother and Cersei was more than happy to have a pure Lannister child. The whole city knew that Cersei is pregnant but no one knew who the father was but others in the city knew that it had to be Jamie Lannister, her brother.

Cersei later went into labor in the red keep giving birth to a daughter. Cersei held onto her new baby thinking about her other children missing in the world. Wondering where they could be.

In Winterfell Brandon Stark and Lady Helen already had two children. One boy and one girl.Warren Stark married a northern house and started his own family.

Brandon Stark was told years ago the disappearances of his siblings. He could not understand what was happening, everything was tearing a part. And for Brandon he was so used to have his mother with him by his side. He listened to her above everything but she has been gone in the capital.

He feels like he is failing. And he would prove that feeling when it comes to the Bolton's. The Bolton's wanted power in the north. They were tired of the Starks being at the head making the worse decision as they saw it. So Lord Roose Bolton made the choice to attack the Starks but in a plan attack. Not only the Bolton's but house Karstark had conflicting feelings towards House Stark.

Roose Bolton let his Bastard son Ramsey loose. As a result of that Lady Helen Stark ( Piper) along their children were killed. The same for Warren's wife and family. That action made Brandon call in the banner's going to war with house Bolton and house Karstark.

The result of the battle ended horribly for the starks. Brandon, Warren and Edmund Stark died on the field by the boltons, karstarks and the Freys. All were gone.

News of that traveled all over to lord's homes and to king's landing. King Stefan Baratheon got the news from a raven while with his wife and children. That is the king's kin, he wanted the Bolton's dead. But Margaery convinced him not to do that. To play right and smart. And Margaery was able to convince King Stefan that she believes that Cersei Lannister killed her brother.

Stefan could see that. So between them they had Cersei Lannister watched.

But in the Westerlands Lady Alys Stark got the letter from the maester of the house kenning. She read the letter falling to her knees in pure pain of the death of her family. Still having no clue about her youngest siblings. Her husband came in and went to his wife to give her comfort.

Things were falling a part. Everyone is playing their own game.

Mellara -

( older)

Being in Essos over the years learning how to fight with a sword and pretty much anything else. I say I am very good. I love being here in Essos, away from Cersei, I feel free that I have been able to breathe normally. Being away from her poison.

But I think I need to leave Essos. I have a feeling that there is something out there I need to do.

" What are thinking about my lady?" Ser Mykal Stonehouse said to me

" Nothing much"

" You and I know that is not true. What is your mind?

Sighing. " I am going to leave. I have to go do something. Alone."

" I am not sure about that. About you going anywhere alone."

" Well I guess....I will just go."

I take my chance and bolt. I was able to get on a ship away from my brother. I will be fine. And away from Mykal. He is one the knights that sworn himself to house Targaryen. He is a thorn in my side.
