As Westeros descends into chaos-thrones contested, kings rising, and dragons awakening-A realm once ruled by dragons now shudders beneath the weight of rebellion, betrayal, and war. The lion sits on the Iron Throne with a bastard boy in a golden crown. Ned Stark's blood will soon darken the stones of King's Landing, the wolves of the North howl for vengeance, and the Baratheon brothers muster storms of steel and ambition. Far across the Narrow Sea, a silver-haired queen wakes fire from ash. Kingdoms fracture. Gods whisper. Shadows stir.
And then they come.
From the west, through mists no map dares mark, a fleet unlike any seen in living memory sails out of the fog. Three mighty rulers, crowned by faith and fire, lead a host of thousands. Crusaders, not for conquest, but for revelation. Templars and Teutons, Hospitallers and Knights of Malta, Orders from Spain and Jerusalem-each bearing steel, relics, and prophecy. Siege engines creak on decks, sacred banners snap in sea wind, and the prayers of half of Christendom echo beneath foreign stars. Their purpose is holy. Their presence, unknown. And their arrival will shatter the world.
For Westeros is not ready for the fury of faith. Nor do the kings of men know what they've stirred-beneath the Weirwoods, within the crypts, across the sea, and in the sky. The Tenth Crusade has come to the ends of the earth... and the gods are watching.

Winter Rose.
There were two babes in the Tower of Joy. Two babes tied so closely to their parents, Ned had to make the decision. One with hair like raven feathers, eyes as grey as steel, and a face of a true Stark. The other, with hair like moonlight, eyes like an indigo pool, and every delicate feature that the Targaryens held above all else. Aegon and Visenya. The prince(ss) that was promised. -- Rhaella made a choice that day Rhaegar's heir arrived on Dragonstone; to forever hide the parentage of Visenya Targaryen and to cut her completely from the prophecy her son was so dedicated to. Visenya Targaryen, Daughter of Lyanna and Rhaegar Targaryen was no more; in her place grew Rhaenar Waters, bastard daughter of The Mad King and soon to be heir apparent. -- Incest warning, major character deaths, gore, smutty scenes... typical Game of Thrones warnings Runs on a similar line to Daenerys but with changes and different pairings and decisions. I won't lie, there is a whole host of relationships and funny business going on with this book; so expect Jon, Mero, Oberyn, and Drogo at the very least. AN: I'm going to be honest with you, this is a long and wild ride that you may or may not read. It goes through each season episode by episode and takes Daenerys place with different outcomes. There are multiple endings for those who either don't mind Incest, or would prefer to completely steer clear. It's completely up to you. So if you read, thank you so much; and if you don't, I hope you find the right story for you if this isn't the one.Complete

The girl with dragon's blood, Princess Daenerys Targaryen, daughter of the Mad King, now walks the path of fire. With the shattering of the diamond cocoon, Velleanna opens her violet eyes-and the old power awakens with her. The world will soon learn the wrath of a queen who once bled for the realm. Will she rise to guide the Prince-or Princess-Who Was Promised? Or will she burn the world that once betrayed her? A forgotten queen. A dead empire. A world unready for her return.

The Dragon's Peace - Book One: The Dragon Ascendant
In a world where one choice altered the fate of Westeros, Prince Rhaegar Targaryen makes the ultimate sacrifice to save the Seven Kingdoms. When the Mad King Aerys II moves to burn his own family and city, Rhaegar slays his father to stop the madness, sparing King's Landing from wildfire and averting Robert Baratheon's rebellion before it can engulf the realm. In the aftermath of this kinslaying coup, the new King Rhaegar I ushers in a fragile "Dragon's Peace" - a realm not scourged by civil war, yet simmering with uneasy alliances and unhealed wounds. All the Targaryens survive intact - Rhaegar's wife Elia and their children, as well as Viserys and newborn Daenerys - but peace comes at a price: the young king must prove his legitimacy, atone for his father's sins, and unite rival great lords who begrudge the crown he saved. The Dragon's Peace: Book One chronicles an alternate saga of Westeros had the Dragon Prince claimed the Iron Throne in time to save it. Now King Rhaegar Targaryen seeks to forge alliances through marriage and diplomacy, not fire and blood. In the cold North, House Stark withdraws its banners after Rhaegar's act of mercy, yet old grudges remain - Lyanna Stark's honor and Robert Baratheon's heart have been broken for the sake of the realm's peace. In the South, Lord Tywin Lannister returns to King's Landing to serve as Hand once more, even as his pride quietly rebels against a king who once slighted him. Seven Kingdoms that nearly splintered are bound anew under Rhaegar's rule, but each Great House follows a new, uncharted trajectory that teems with intrigue. The Martells of Dorne bask in the favor of their beloved Elia as queen, the Baratheons smolder with unmet vengeance, and the direwolves of Stark gnash their teeth over debts of honor unpaid. Fans of Game of Thrones will recognize beloved characters on new paths - and new characters with daunting challenges - in a gripping tale of what might have been, had the Dragon Prince lived to rule.Complete
