arrival in Winterfell

I can finally see the gates of Winterfell but the only thing I can think of is the goodbye my father gave me it was the most heartfelt goodbye I've ever received

it happens when the king's road cut off my father turned to me pulled me into a hug im only up to his chest and he says "son I've never been more proud of anyone in my entire life and this may be the last time I ever see you but I know even if you got the crown now you would be a better King then me you're the only thing I have left in this world that I would give my life up for and I just want you to know I love you and want you to grow strong under stark teachings when I next see you you will be bigger than me and even though you're not gone yet I already miss you make sure to write letters to me, my son" I feel a few tears hit my head not that I can talk I've soaked his shirt with my tears because even though im not from this world he's still my dad and he's always been there for me cheering me on in the training grounds or just talking to me telling me stories and you may not know this but he used to read the best bed time stories

"'I'll miss you too father and ill always write and next time I see you I will beat everyone with my hammer and make you even more proud so please survive this war for me and don't give the greyjoys mercy or they will rebel again promise me"

"I promise"

I hold out my pinky "pinky promise me"

he chuckles and intertwines our pinky "I pinky promise"

at this, he rides the other way and I continue to head north to face my destiny and who knows maybe ill make some friends I don't have any so now a good chance to make some

and now after many days of travel, we made it to Winterfell the guard on the wall shouts

"Who goes there"

"prince orys of house Baratheon I am to foster her until I become 16"

"open the gate his grace is here"

the gates open and I ride in all the starks who have been born are here but no e-card stark I guess he has left for the iron isles deciding to go a different way to me probably to collect his bannermen

there is Robb and Jon who are 6 a 3-year-old Sansa and a newborn Arya born just this year

Caitlyn comes and greets me "hello you're grace im Caitlyn stark this is my son Robb daughter Sansa, my other daughter, Arya we welcome you to Winterfell and are happy to have you stay here with us"

"thank you for the kind words my lady but who is that black-haired child next to Robb," I ask already knowing the answer but I need a reason to know his name

"that's Jon snow nedd's natural-born son does his presence offend you, we can have him removed if you like"

"no I don't mind him I think we will all get along here but I have to say this won't result in any marriage contracts between me or one of you're daughters and don't deny thinking of it I can tell by the gleam in you're eye you were thinking of tieing your family to royalty"

"of course you're grace," she said trying to act fine but I could tell I pissed her off by saying this but she needed to know for now it's better that way "can you give an escort to my room and give my men an escort I've also brought a kingsguard with me he's arys oakheart he's here for my protection and to teach me to use a weapon"

we get led to our rooms my kingsguard in the room next to me thankfully but im next to lord and lady Stark's room I hope I don't hear them making children in the future because I don't want to be traumatized by listening to those activity's

thanks for reading wasn't planning to update but got bored
