One possible motive could be revenge. The Freys have committed many heinous acts throughout the 'Game of Thrones' story, like the Red Wedding. Another character or group might have decided that enough was enough and that the only way to get justice was to put all the Freys to the sword.
It could also be a strategic move. Perhaps a powerful faction saw the Freys as a liability or a threat. By eliminating them all, they could gain more control over certain lands or resources. Also, the Freys were not well - liked by many, so it might be a way to gain support from those who despised them.
Another possibility is the Brotherhood Without Banners. They are known for their sense of justice and for punishing the wrongdoers. If they got wind of the Freys' many crimes, they could decide to put all of them to the sword to set an example in the cruel world of 'Game of Thrones'.
Survival could be a possible motive. The world of 'Game of Thrones' is full of threats. Maesters might conspire to ensure their own survival in the face of potential threats like the return of the Others or a large - scale war. They could be planning to manipulate events so that they are in a safe position, no matter who wins or loses in the power struggles. They might also be trying to protect the Citadel, their center of learning, and a conspiracy could be a way to secure its resources and continued existence.
It could be revenge. Maybe someone was wronged in the past and saw murder as a way to get even.
One possible motive could be his obsession with Will. Hannibal sees Will as a unique individual, almost like a kindred spirit in some ways. He might kidnap Will to have him all to himself, away from the outside world that he believes corrupts or misunderstands Will.
A storyline could involve Gendry using his new - found princely status to bring about change in Westeros. He might focus on improving the lives of the common people, as he has seen their hardships up close. This could put him at odds with the more traditional and self - serving noble houses. He could also be involved in rebuilding parts of Westeros that were damaged during the wars, using his resources and influence as a prince.
A 'Game of Thrones' future fanfic might explore the consequences of the events in the original series. For instance, if Jon Snow's true identity becomes widely known, how would that reshape the political landscape? Some might see him as the rightful heir and support his claim to the Iron Throne, while others might oppose him out of fear or self - interest. Also, the White Walkers' threat might not be fully over, and there could be a resurgence of the undead in a different form.
In a 'Game of Thrones Afterlife' fanfic, the afterlife could be a place where different houses coexist in harmony or chaos. The Starks, Lannisters, and Targaryens could be engaged in a new kind of power struggle. This time, it's not about the Iron Throne but about something more ethereal, like control over the fates of the living. Their old rivalries and alliances might be re - evaluated and new relationships could form as they navigate this strange afterlife realm.
One possible motive could be a sense of betrayal. If the gods had broken promises to Percy or his friends too many times, he might feel pushed to the edge. For example, if they failed to protect his loved ones despite his loyalty and service to them in previous adventures.
In the fanfic, perhaps Harry had reached his limit with Umbridge's blatant disregard for the rights and well - being of the students and magical creatures. She was a symbol of the corrupt Ministry at that time. Harry, having a strong sense of justice, could no longer tolerate her presence and actions, especially after seeing how she treated his friends and those he cared about at Hogwarts.
It could be a form of exploring darker themes. The writer might be interested in how the RWBY world would react if Ruby Rose was killed. They might want to see how other characters would develop or change in the face of such a tragedy. However, this is a rather extreme way of exploring those themes and might not be well - received by most fans.
