So a quick review here: 1. The story is so far decent but moves slowly and author is determined to make a wonderboy who makes miracles before he is even in his teens (as of ch. 78 mc is still 10 or 11 years old, cant remember which). Info dumps are a thing, author likes to give alot of background info about people or places that he mentioned just once in a certain chapter to never really appear again. There are certainly some interesting facts that he presents, but as it isn’t relevant to plot most of the time, it gets somewhat frustrating. 2. Writing quality is decent but author doesn’t have an editor or proofreader so spelling errors and grammatical errors are present in almost every chapter. 3. The charcaters retain their original personalities, but there is also a touch of authors own impression of them wether intentional or not. In conclusion a decent fanfic you should give a try. Also a bonus point that the MC isn’t a westerosi, I haven’t read many fanfics where MC is a native to Essos.

LIKEI was so close to actually reading the story…until I saw 80 chapters and the mc is still on 10 years old.
Certain fandoms child MCs work really well in, for example: Harry Potter, GoT just isn’t one of them with how dark of a world it is. Children are looked down on and not taken seriously in any way, so you usually see fanfics where only a couple chapters focus on early childhood until about 14 when they would be considered an adult.
Exactly, that's what I did with my new GoT Fanfic... the first one was full of plotholes and no longer fixable.
