"Our histories... They tell us that Aegon looked across the Blackwater from Dragonstone and saw a rich land ripe for the capture. But ambition alone is not what drove him to conquest. It was a dream. And just as Daenys foresaw the end of Valyria, Aegon foresaw the end of the world of men. 'Tis to begin with a terrible winter gusting out of the distant north. Aegon saw absolute darkness riding on those winds. And whatever dwells within will destroy the world of the living. When this Great Winter comes, Rhaenyra, all of Westeros must stand against it. And if the world of men is to survive, a Targaryen must be seated on the Iron Throne. A king or queen strong enough to unite the realm against the cold and the dark. Aegon called his dream the Song of Ice and Fire."
✗A Note from Megs ✗
I will be taking my time with the chapters for this story. I intend to change some things from season eight, but not all. I do fully understand why that might not appeal to readers, but you can think of this as a slightly adapted version of what I wished Game of Thrones season nine would look like if it were to ever be made. I will be pulling from the books, known lore, and so on. However, I will not always be 100% canon and will be taking liberties where I see fit.
I hope you enjoy this! I will be updating this once every two weeks or once a week. It will depend on the time I have and the length of the chapters.
