Robert's Rebellion: The Canon Tragedy

The true canon story of Robert's Rebellion told in detail.
Starting in late 280 AC, Tywin Lannister has resigned as Hand of the King to Aerys II after he named his eldest son and heir, Jaime, to the Kingsguard under the suggestion of Jaime's twin, Cersei. Tywin had been the focus of Aerys' paranoia after Duskendale, and now with him gone from court, his new focus is his own son and heir Prince Rhaegar, who had become wary of his father's behavior. At court, there's growing tension between the factions loyal to the king and those loyal to Rhaegar. To get away from his father, the prince moved his new wife, Princess Elia Martell, and newborn daughter, Rhaenys, to his ancestral home of Dragonstone. However, Rhaegar is motivated to dispose of his mad father has decided to anonymously sponsor the greatest tourney the Seven Kingdoms has ever seen to call a Great Council with all the most powerful Houses of Westeros.
In the North, Rickard Stark of Winterfell has southern ambitions. He has forged alliances with his war friends Hoster Tully of the riverlands by marrying his eldest son, Brandon, to Hoster's daughter, and Jon Arryn of the Vale by fostering his second son, Eddard (Ned) at the Eyrie. Ned befriended fellow ward, Robert Baratheon, who fell in love with Ned's little sister, Lyanna through the stories Ned would tell. Rickard agreed to betroth his only daughter to the new lord of the stormlands when Ned brought the proposal, but Lyanna has been less than pleased with the arrangement as she wants to stay in the North with her best friend and little brother, Benjen.
The Stark-Arryn-Tully alliance comes to the tourney looking to further their agenda while Rhaegar looks to earn their support.
Tragic love stories and the fine line between destiny and duty are explored as ice and fire collide for the first time.
