My uncle issued a decree the very next morning and started allocating gold for restoration

His aunt took whole winterfell on her head when she heard about Moat Cailin, she had big fight with my uncle

I was not there but I heard she said somethings like how her children should be the one to hold such lands not the bastard ,how a bastard didn't deserve such honour ,these didn't matter but what she said last did

She said how she won't let a bastard of some whore hold such lands, while my uncle and I don't see a eye to eye on lot of things but calling my mother a whore even unknowingly doesn't fare well especially in winterfell

That day his aunt learned that even a quiet wolf was still a wolf ,his uncle was soo furious there were even rumours that Lady Stark was going to be sent back to Riverrun, but I know that's not going to happen

His aunt quickly learned her place ,she mostly avoided me after the incident I didn't care about that either way

Convincing uncle Benjen to be regent was not hard , he was always close to me and treated me like family

Just when I thought everything was on track Greyjoys rebelled and his uncle called his banners and to aide his friend

I thought the rebellion would halt the restoration but his uncle allocated the gold to his uncle Benjen and even with rebellion the restoration was still going on

Uncle Benjen personally oversaw the restoration and made sure the keep was properly restored

The rebellion didn't affect him much he was still doing his day to day things like training , attending lessons , playing with Robb etc

He was making steady progress with weapons , fire magic etc but the only thing going slowly was wraging , he still can't do it while awake

The rebellion was over as quickly as it started, Balon greyjoy was a fool , what made think it was a good idea to rebel was beyond me

The only thing rebellion did for the greyjoy was killing his two sons and countless men.

My uncle bought the last son with him when the rebellion was over , I didn't like the boy the moment I saw him, the hostage acted like a prince in a false bravado which was obvious

The boy quickly started calling me bastard to show he was above me, nothing a few beatings in the yard didn't solve, now he just stays as far he could from me

I mostly do own thing for the most time, the only one I am close to is Robb and uncle Benjen , my cousin always treated me like brother never caring about being a snow

Sansa mostly stayed away from me , listening to her mother, I used to play with her when she was little

I learned that I was growing faster because of my dragon blood , even though dragon are said to grow as long as they live but the first few years are fastest they grow

A hatchling is only the size of a small cat but in two years if properly fed they grow bigger than a mammoth , according to the books I would be fully grown by my 10th nameday which should take more than twice for normal men

Due to this my appetite was getting bigger so I started hunting in the forest near winterfell, it helped me solve my food issue without attracting attention and made me some stags by selling pelts

According to my uncle Benjen the restoration would take 2 years which means my time staying at Winterfell was nearing its end

So I started to spend more time with Robb as I would have to leave soon, maybe one day I would tell him about my true identity hopefully he would understand

I also saw the birth of cousin this year , little Arya she looks like my mother with all the stark features, I like her already even as a baby she is fighter ,causes a lot of trouble for my aunt

Even though I lost most of my family in the rebellion I am finding new family among my cousins
