It was that which they- she- had planned for when they conspired beneath the shadow of the Red Keep, at a dusty old inn. Lord Tywin Lannister was nothing if not ambitious, and Cersei would remain at the Red Keep for as long as it took for Princess Ellia's poor health to end her and allow Rhaegar to remarry, or for Prince Viserys to mature anything in the name of a royal marriage for her. His father was the Hand of the King, and had brought Cersei, Jaime's sister to court with him. It would seem like he was mad to most, a boy who had lost his wits, giving up Casterly Rock and the whole of the Westerlands for a cloak, but with service to the King came King's Landing. Young, tall, handsome, and talented beyond reason, he would be a favorite on the lists, but that was not the cause of Jaime's elation, no, he was looking forward to something else entirely.Ī white cloak awaited him at Harrenhal, an appointment to the Kingsguard to replace the aged Harlan Grandison who had died in his sleep the year passed. The accolades would be deafening, he had no doubts about that. Even King Aerys, notorious for never leaving the Red Keep, would at long last make the trip to Harrenhall to enjoy the hospitality of House Whent.įresh from battle with the Kingswood brotherhood, and knighted by Ser Arthur Dayne of the Kingsguard, the Sword of Morning himself, there was nothing more that a young knight could want than the opportunity to prove himself before the whole of the kingdoms.
Prince Rhaegar, heir to the Iron Throne, would be competing and Princess Ellia of Dorne, his wife, would be attending as well. The greatest lords and knights of the Seven Kingdoms would gather under the shadow of Black Harren's folly, the largest ruin in the world, and compete for glory and lavish prizes. It was the sort of event that would occur but once in a generation. Ser Jaime Lannister had been ecstatic at the news of the tournament at Harrenhal. He dreamed they would be so strong and brave and beautiful that no one would ever laugh at them.” - A Feast for Crows Tywin dreamed that his son would be a great knight, that his daughter would be a queen.

Starting off in the year 281 AL, it will be running from the perspective of Jaime Lannister, with the twist in history of Tywin Lannister dying and leaving him the lordship of Casterly Rock and the Westerlands rather than a white cloak and service to the Mad King.ĭue to starting off at a non-bookmarked point with historical characters, in the interest of full disclosure I did have to make a few adjustments to the file to fit things in terms of traits and base stats (Aerys being a tyrant before doing anything tyrannical, adjusting education traits to ensure that brutes like Gregor and Sandor Clegane and such don't wind up with diplomatic educations due to the lack of education flags, killing Tywin right off at the start, those sorts of things)Īnd of course, as always, there will be minor spoilers in the content for those that haven't quite caught up with the show/books, and probably more major ones in any conversation that goes on in-thread, so read at your own peril! Likewise, Jaime's choice in partners is rather affixed at this point, so for the foreseeable future there will likely be a fair bit of incest and such as well (mind you, there's tons of that in CKII as is).Ĭhapter III: The Golden Lord and the Silver PrinceĬhapter X: The Storming of King's LandingĬhapter XI: A Won War With a Missing VictoryĬhapter XII: Between The Rock and a Hard Place Click the ➕ on YouTube Gaming to subscribe ☛ ☑ Subscribe for livestream notifications. ?
