Year 305 AC

Arya POV

As soon as I got out of Winter town, I put my hood down and I finally taste the smell of freedom, the first thing I need to do is fake my death, that way they will not look for me. I will never return, they only want to sell me and use me as a pawn, I will never became one, ever. I am not a lady and the only ones who understood that were Jon, Bran and Rickon. My mother, my twin sister, Robb, that bitch of septa Mordane and even my father did not understood me. They never asked what I wanted, it was always try to trun me into a stupid lady. Suddenly Winter became nevious. Come down girl, is just Nymeria. But she never gets nervous around Nymeria, that's strange. Suddenly a grey wolf jump in front of Winter. She got more nervious. The wolf was about to jump but Nymeria jumped first and killed him fast. I jumped off Winter. It was a bloody mess what Nymeria did but it will be enough. I put the dress i brought and put ii on top of the dead wolf and sooked in his blood, then I grabbed it and left it close to the mouth. That will be enough, Arya Stark is dead and Alys Snow is born, as I took my hunting knife and cut off my hair. I was only a bastard horfan with only few coins so I live and I will do what I do best, go to an adventure and live my new found freedom. As I mount Winter, I hear people screaming at my back, I put my hood and start riding towards White Harbor. I will buy a ticket to Essos and I will turn into a mercenary. 

Same year, three months later, last month of the year

Jon POV

I was legitimized at the request of lady Stark and even when I was not very happy at the beginning, Arya was gone and could not tell her I was one of them now. But then time pass and I started to feel happy. Arya would have been happy. Well, maybe she would have been angry if she find I was with Jeyne Poole now. She confess to me she loved me and even when I was angry at her for the treatment she did to Arya, I forgive her, as she was blaming herself for Arya's death, saying that if she respected her, she would have never escaped in the first place. We were already dating for three months, when a new letter arrived for father and it was dark words from the south.We were called to the dining hall. I sit next to Bran and Jeyne to my side, as we were to marry in a week.

I have to inform you all that king Robert is coming, said my father.

Why is he coming?, asked Sansa.

Jon Arryn is dead, our mother said. She told me if i wanted, I could call her that, even when she does not deserve it, as she put it. He is coming t asked your father to be the new hand and maybe as asked Sansa's hand for Jofffrey.

Butt I am to marry Theon!, said Sansa. It was a strange request from Theon.. We found later that Sansa was dating Theon after Arya's funeral.

We know, said our father, that is why you will marry Theon next week after Jon's wedding.

So we will mary the same day?, asled Theon.

Yes, said my mother, but Jon will only marry by the old gods and as you requested, you will marry by the seven and the old gods.

Why not the drowned god?, I asked.

I am not a follower of that god's anymore, Theon said, not for a long time.

So, we have to prepare ourselves for a fest, said my father, and two weddings.

If the rumors are true about Joffrey, we have to prepare ourselves for anything, I said.

Not only him, my father said, but the queen as well.
