Chapter 1

Jon's heart raced like he was about to face an army of White Walkers, except instead of terror, he was filled with a jittery excitement. Imagine the geeky thrill of knowing you're not only a character in your favorite TV show but also have a cheat code. With the Gacha System in his corner and a treasure trove of spoilers from "Game of Thrones," Jon felt like he'd just won the lottery. Standing in his new Winterfell room, the gravity of what lay ahead hit him—fate was ready to throw something epic his way, like "Seven Kingdoms" epic.

"Uh, system?" Jon asked, his voice wobbling with a mix of awe and apprehension.

As if on cue, the air crackled with mystical energy, like someone had just cast an enchantment. A glowing interface materialized before him, the words "Gacha System" shimmering in golden letters, surrounded by a bunch of video game-style icons.

"Welcome, Jon," a disembodied voice chimed in, warm and cozy, like the promise of a hot cocoa on a snowy day. "I am the Gacha System, here to assist you in your journey through Westeros. With my help, you can access various abilities, items, and companions to support you in your quest."

Jon stared at the floating screen, his brain struggling to keep up with the awesomeness unfolding before him. This was like his ultimate fantasy come true. Determined to dive in, he reached toward the interface, ready to unlock all its secrets.

But before getting lost in the fantasy, he realized he needed to address the system's identity. "Uh, what should I call you?" Jon asked, knowing "system" wasn't going to cut it for long.

The screen flickered, as if pondering the question. "You may call me 'Guide,' Jon. I am here to offer counsel and assistance throughout your journey in Westeros. Alternatively, you could choose a name for me."

Jon mulled it over, wanting a name that reflected the seriousness of his new gig. After a moment's thought, he said, "Hestia. Like the goddess of hearth and home. You'll be my guide through this whole medieval mess."

The screen pulsed with a warm light, almost like it was smiling. "Hestia it is," the voice said, sounding almost affectionate. With Hestia on his side, Jon felt a fresh surge of confidence. He wasn't just going to survive Westeros—he was going to own it.

"Hestia, how does this Gacha System work?" Jon asked, his excitement barely contained.

"Firstly," Hestia began, adopting a teaching tone, "you can roll the Gacha once a month. This gives you time to strategize between sessions. To roll the Gacha, you need Gacha Points, which act as the currency for accessing rewards. Each roll costs 100 Gacha Points, but the more rolls you perform in a single session, the better your chances of obtaining rare and powerful rewards."

Jon nodded, understanding the need for strategy. This wasn't a game you could rush through without careful planning.

"And how do I earn Gacha Points?" Jon asked, knowing this was key to his success.

"To earn Gacha Points," Hestia explained confidently, "you must immerse yourself in the world of Westeros. Engage with key characters, influence the storyline with surprising choices, and complete side quests. The more you interact with the world, the more points you'll accumulate."

Jon's mind raced with possibilities. "So, it's not just about staying alive; it's about making an impact, right?"

"Exactly," Hestia replied, her voice gleaming with encouragement. "Every decision and interaction can shape your destiny and earn you Gacha Points. Seize opportunities, forge alliances, uncover secrets, and face challenges with courage and wit."

Jon felt a renewed sense of purpose. This wasn't just a survival game—he had the chance to rewrite the rules of Westeros. With Hestia by his side and the Gacha System at his disposal, he was ready to dive into this epic adventure.

"Let's do this," Jon muttered to himself, a determined grin spreading across his face. Armed with his newfound powers and a healthy dose of TV show spoilers, he was ready to tackle whatever Westeros could throw at him.

"Hestia, can you show me my stats?" Jon asked, a mix of excitement and trepidation buzzing inside him. 

"Of course, Jon," Hestia replied, her voice like a comforting hug. 

The air shimmered, and a translucent screen materialized in front of him. Jon's eyes widened as he took in the information with a mix of awe and disbelief. This was not the medieval world he was used to—it was more like something out of a sci-fi game.

Jon's eyes darted over the stats, finally landing on the name—Daemon Targaryen. A shiver raced down his spine. "Hestia," he asked, trying to keep his voice steady, "what's this about Daemon Targaryen?"

Hestia's light flickered, as if she was choosing her words carefully. "Jon, this world isn't exactly like the one from the TV show or the books you're familiar with. Here, you were originally intended to be Daemon Targaryen—a name with its own legacy and destiny. But, much like you, this world has diverged from its expected path."

Jon frowned, trying to make sense of it. "So, I'm supposed to be this Daemon guy, not Aegon like in the show?"

"Precisely," Hestia replied. "In this version of reality, your mother, Lyanna, chose Daemon instead of Aegon. It's a sign that this world has its own narrative unfolding. With you here, Jon, the story is already taking a different turn."

Jon took a deep breath, processing the revelation. Sure, this world was different, but he was still Jon Snow—bastard of Winterfell, son of Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen. And he was definitely not signing up for a dragon-riding queen. No way. He had enough to deal with without adding a Targaryen with a penchant for burning people and cities to the mix.

As he scanned the rest of his stats, Jon felt a rush of awe and introspection. The powers listed weren't just abilities; they were fragments of his heritage, melding his Targaryen and Stark bloodlines into something both awesome and terrifying. Dragonlord Heritage, Fire Resistance, Strong Leadership—these screamed Targaryen, with all the fiery drama that entailed. But Swordsmanship & Combat Skills, Northern Resilience, and Warging Abilities? Those were pure Stark, as unyielding as the North itself.

His mind buzzed with possibilities. These powers weren't just tools—they were symbols of everything that made him who he was, a blend of ice and fire. For so long, he'd felt like an outsider to both houses, but now he saw himself as the embodiment of both legacies.

And then there was the Gacha System. With 1000 Gacha Points at his disposal, Jon felt a thrill of excitement. This was his chance to unlock new abilities, acquire items, or even summon legendary characters. The thought of rolling the Gacha for the first time filled him with eager anticipation. What could he get? A legendary sword? A mystical artifact? A powerful ally? The possibilities were endless, and the unknown beckoned him forward.

As he stood there, contemplating the adventure ahead, Jon felt a spark of hope and excitement he hadn't felt in a long time. With Hestia as his guide and the Gacha System in play, he was ready to face whatever Westeros had in store.

"Well," Jon said with a determined grin, "let's see what fate has in store for me."

With that, he prepared for his first Gacha session, eager to embrace the wild, unpredictable adventure that awaited him. After all, if there was one thing Jon Snow knew, it was how to survive—and maybe even thrive—in a world full of unexpected twists.

"Are you ready to begin?" Hestia asked, her holographic form shimmering with excitement.

Jon grinned, a mix of nerves and exhilaration bubbling up. "Absolutely," he said, barely able to contain his enthusiasm. "Let's roll them all at once and see what we get."

Hestia nodded, her digital eyes sparkling. "As you wish, Jon. Here we go."

With a sweep of Jon's hand, the Gacha System sprang to life, spinning out ten rolls simultaneously. The air around him crackled with energy as lights and symbols whirled across the interface. Jon's heart raced, and he felt like he was on the edge of something huge—like a teenager waiting for their final grades or a hero waiting for their destiny to be revealed.

One by one, the rolls settled, and the interface began to calm. Jon's pulse was still pounding with anticipation. This was it—the moment of truth.

First up: Wakandan Shield.

Jon's jaw nearly hit the floor. "No way! A Wakandan shield?" He picked up the sleek, black shield, feeling its solid, cool weight. "Guess I'm stepping up my game with some vibranium now. Thanks, Hestia!"

Next: Character Card: Tony Masters/Taskmaster (Marvel Comics).

Jon's eyes widened. "Taskmaster? That's awesome!" He examined the card with its dynamic artwork of Tony Masters. "This guy can copy anyone's fighting style, just by watching them? That's like having a cheat code for combat."

Hestia's voice was almost smug. "Exactly. Taskmaster has photographic reflexes, meaning he can replicate any technique he sees. He's got a vast repertoire of combat skills from heroes and villains alike."

Jon's grin stretched wider. "Sweet! That'll definitely come in handy."

Next: Dawnbreaker (Skyrim).

Jon's eyes lit up. "Dawnbreaker? No way! This sword's gonna be perfect for dealing with White Walkers. It's like having a built-in dragon-slayer."

Then: Wiggenweld Potion x5 (Harry Potter).

Jon furrowed his brow. "Wiggenweld Potion? What's that do again?"

"It's a powerful healing elixir," Hestia explained. "One sip, and it heals you instantly. Think of it as a portable magical first-aid kit."

Jon nodded, relieved. "That'll be useful. Healing on demand is never a bad thing."

Next: Pepperup Potion x5 (Harry Potter).

Jon chuckled. "Pepperup Potion? Gives you a burst of energy and clears up congestion, right? Not the flashiest, but who knows when a little extra pep might come in handy?"

Then: Character Card: Selina Kyle/Catwoman (DC Comics).

Jon's face lit up. "Selina Kyle? Nice! I've always had a soft spot for Catwoman. But how do I introduce her without raising eyebrows?"

He began strategizing, considering how to bring Selina into the fold without drawing too much attention. Maybe he could frame it as a fortuitous meeting or keep her skills in reserve for when they were really needed.

Next: Kaer Morhen Armor (The Witcher 3).

Jon practically squealed with excitement. "Kaer Morhen Armor? This is incredible! Top-tier gear, right here. It's like having an armor upgrade straight out of a fantasy epic."

And then: Night Fury Egg (How to Train Your Dragon).

Jon's eyes widened in disbelief. "A Night Fury egg?!" He stared at the speckled shell, already picturing the dragon it would become. "This is a game-changer!"

Finally, there were Power Boost Cards x10 and Weakness Removal Cards x10.

Jon's eyes grew even wider. "Power Boost Cards? And ten of them?! This is unreal!" He started brainstorming ways to maximize the potential of his new dragon. "Hestia, how big does an adult Night Fury get?"

"Typically about 20 to 25 feet in length with a wingspan of 45 to 50 feet," Hestia replied. "And dragons in this world continue growing as long as they live."

Jon's mind raced. "So if I use the Power Boost Cards, could I make the Night Fury even bigger and stronger—maybe even rival the dragons in this world?"

Hestia's tone was contemplative. "It's possible. Boosting the Night Fury's growth could make it a formidable force, perhaps even surpassing the dragons here."

Jon's excitement was palpable. "Let's do it. A powerful dragon on my side could be a real game-changer."

With his new loot ready, Jon started plotting how to integrate these items and allies into his life without attracting too much attention. After all, he was still Jon Snow, bastard of Winterfell. But maybe he could pass off these gifts as blessings or lucky finds.

"I might need to take a little time away from Winterfell," Jon mused, strategizing how to weave his new resources into his story. Timing and subtlety would be key.

As he stood there, mentally preparing for the journey ahead, Jon felt a renewed sense of purpose. With Hestia guiding him and a treasure trove of new powers, weapons, and allies, he was ready for whatever Westeros had in store. He couldn't wait to dive into this epic adventure.

"Well," Jon said with a confident grin, "let's see what fate has in store for me."

With that, he geared up for his next move, ready to face the wild, unpredictable path that lay ahead. After all, if there was one thing Jon Snow knew, it was how to roll with the punches—and maybe even come out on top.
