A/N:a chapter from our favorite Rightful King.
Stannis Baratheon had never been good in life for he had been dutiful to Robert during the Rebellion by holding Storm's End against the massive Tyrell host but he had been disgraced by not receiving Storm's End and its incomes but getting the poorer Dragonstone and his burning fury began its light.
Now he is at Winterfell,sitting on a throne,ruling a land and castle that did not even belong to him by any right and surrounded by lords who look at him and are only loyal to him because there was no Stark left,the Bastard Snow has refused his legitimization offer which made the lords look to him as their King.Now a Stark returns in the form of Rickon the rightful lord of Winterfell but it only awaken more Starks with Lady Sansa in the Reach married to the heir of Highgarden and a..traitor Stark..
The so called Queen in The North,Winter,First Men and the Trident Arya Stark rumored to look exactly like how the infamous Lyanna Stark did.A women who Robert went mad and to war for.Looking at the courtyard,his daughter and heir to his crown and Baratheon legacy Shireen his only daughter and child.I lost faith in the Gods when Father and Mother died.He didn't care anymore about R'hlor or the Gods Old or New for only Steel can win battle and I must for Shireen.
As he looked upon the snowy skies,the door opens to his most loyal vassal and rarely admitted close friend Davos a man so loyal even with some of his sons dead he still fights for me.Stannis felt the guilt rise but he has a war to finish.He looks to Davos,"Your Grace,I have bad news" always blunt as usual."The Reeds and Manderlys have declared for Arya Stark and is on the march to Winterfell with Lady Stark" the Reeds understandable but the Manderlys a Southron house supporting so openly.The North is different where oaths and debts are remembered.
"How many swords do we have?" Stannis asked."Your Grace,we can call upon 18 000 swords and with the sellswords together 26 000 swords,17 000 foot and 9 000 horse." Davos stated from his reports."The enemy?" Stannis could only afford to pray that he has more men."The a Starks have 25 000 men too Your Grace." Davos worriedly said.
The fate of House Baratheon will be decided here and I will either die a King or win a Pyrrhic victory."Davos assemble the men,we are marching to battle.Where are the Starks now?" Davos visibly worried "The Starks are at The White Knife,they are marching northwestward towards us."
Stannis didn't reply but nodded "We leave by tomorrow and pass the command to the men.Leave 1000 men of foot as garrison." As Davos prepared to leave he stopped."Davos you will not be following me but you will be acting Regent for Shireen.If anything happens crown Shireen Queen and fight for her rights as Queen." To which Davos nodded.
That night Stannis held a feast for the men and all drank to the drunken state except him and Davos,as the night passes Stannis does not sleep but spend time with Shireen and Selyse.
In the morning,Stannis in his armour and already ready marches out of Winterfell and there is an omen going around camp that the snows are getting thicker meaning that Winterfell is longing for the Starks.He orders that Rickon Stark,Theon Greyjoy and Asha Greyjoy are not to be harm.
As they march he could feel the winds getting colder..
The Starks warned of Winter Is Coming..
When they are Winter itself..
