Chapter 55-[Heir?]
Robb looked with wonder at his wife in bed, she was holding a small baby, with black hair and dark eyes.
Edward Stark.
The name of his father, now his son's.
'My son,' he thought, seeing him.
Talisa looked at him and smiled.
"Come," she said.
Robb approached and took the creature with great care.
Some knocks were heard on the door of the room.
"Wait a moment," he ordered and returned the child to his wife and approached the door.
A guard was waiting there.
"Sir, Prince Brandon, he's calling you," he said.
"Bran?" Robb muttered.
"He said it's urgent," the guard said.
Robb nodded and the guard left.
He sighed and turned to his wife.
"See, there's surely news," she said.
Robb left the room, walking through the halls of Winterfell with an armed escort, Dacey was next to him, three more guards from the lords of the north and two guards from the free people.
They arrived at the sacred tree of Winterfell, the children of the forest were surrounding it, Meera was next to Bran, he was touching the tree, his eyes were white.
Robb was still not used to seeing him, so he knew that Bran could see through the trees with faces, events of the past and present.
"You have arrived," said his Brother.
Robb approached.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"An army, they come to Winterfell," he said.
"The Lannisters? Frey? How many are there? " Robb asked.
Bran shook his head.
"They landed in a thick forest, they are not from Westeros," he said.
"invaders? How many? " he asked.
"Not invaders, around two thousand men," Bran said.
"How do you know they are not invaders?" Robb asked.
"Because Sansa and Arya guide them," he said.
Robb blinked.
"Sansa? Arya? Jon?" he whispered.
"I don't see Jon, but I certainly see our sisters," he said.
Robb stayed still.
"Prisoners?" he asked.
Bran denied.
"No, as I see it, they lead the army, they also have several carts... They will arrive in a couple of days," the boy said.
"Do you see anything else?" he murmured.
"The flags are of a wolf and a dragon," he said.
'Stark and Targaryen must have allied with the Targaryen princess' the boy thought.

Arya and Sansa arrived at the gates of Winterfell, they saw an army waiting for them.
"Oh, you already know we're coming, I was hoping to surprise them by coming from behind," Arya said.
Sansa smiled.
"We came from behind so as not to attract the attention of the Lannisters, information is a form of war, that the Lannisters not know that the Starks and Valyria are together is essential, until Jon comes at least," said Sansa.
Arya shrugged.
"Tywin's spies were killed in the attack on Volantis, the nobles in his pocket were executed," she said.
Sansa nodded.
"You are partly right, but Westeros is still full of spies, entering through the west coast, instead of the east, was essential, although it took longer to get there," said the saint.
"Who are they!? "They listened and saw a man waiting for them at the entrance, he had two battle axes.
The man was about two meters tall, and there were a couple of other men behind him as well. They were from the free people who got the job of guarding the gate.
"Who is this?" Arya muttered.
Her guard looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"New weapons master?" Sansa asked herself.
She smiled.
"He looks weak," Arya said.
[T/N: *WHEEEEZZZZZZ*]
The man glared, the other guards laughed.
"I repeat, who are you?" he asked.
"We are the masters of this castle," said Arya.
"WHAT?" said the man.
"Let them pass," they heard and the door opened.
"Robb?" Sansa said with a smile.
The boy came out with his squad and smiled at them.
"Did you have to provoke my men as soon as you arrived?" he asked.
Arya shrugged.
Sansa smiled.
"Jon?" he asked.
They both looked at him.
And they smiled.
"Long story, we brought men and resources," she said.
The boy nodded.
"Very well, welcome to Winterfell, princesses," he said.
Arya looked at him annoyed.

Robb looked at his wife talking to a woman, she was his sister, her sister-in-law who came from Volantis with men to support him.
Sansa and Arya learned about everything that happened after Ned's execution, from Robb's perspective.
The boy explained to them the attacks on the country of rivers.
The betrayal of Theon and the ironborn.
The red wedding
The betrayal of the Boltons.
Stannis and his alliance.
The death of him.
The union of his men with Stannis's.
The taking of Winterfell.
Also that he let Theon go with the order to never return, after he saved Jeyne. Sansa felt sad for her friend, she should visit her.
They consequently explained their adventures.
The conquests of slave bay.
The conquest of the Dothraki.
The creation of Valyria.
Jon's coronation.
His wedding to Daenerys.
And finally the outcome of Volantis.
The boy had talked a little with his sisters, they quickly got to work as soon as they entered Winterfell.
Sansa ordered a medical post to be created immediately, Talisa had ordered one to be made, when Winterfell was taken and Sansa usurped it, and she began sending orders for herbs and medicine.
The men were somewhat shocked by her healing ability. The first thing the girl did was heal Bran, something that not even the Queen of the North could do. The boy still had trouble walking after not using his legs for so long. but he could do it. Sansa quickly gained popularity with the north, and many of the wildlings began to venerate her as the saint, just like the men of Essos. She also spent time with Talisa, and she spoiled the new baby as much as she could.
The girl arrived at the white room and looked at the computer.
{Congratulations, your religion has surpassed the borders of Essos and has begun to spread west.
Due to the great importance of religions and beginning the creation of yours, you are awarded experience points needed to level up.
Congratulations Saint Sansa.}
[T/N: CONFIRMATION! STRAIGHT FROM THE HORSE MOUTH!]
The girl blinked as she read that, and she smiled, seeing that she went up a level without fighting or healing anyone. She was at level 17 with 7 skill points.
Arya on the other hand, explored the city, using her detection abilities to search for escape locations from the Winterfell quarters, and ordered them to be covered.
Robb counted the resources brought from Essos, enough food to last a year, which helped in the war, not counting the gold, hundreds of gold bars, which would be to pay for weapons and reconstructions.
They had also brought the high priestess of the temple of the fire god with them and she was constantly talking to Melisandre.
Clearly, they had their own agenda.
Robb asked her what she was doing here.
She responded that she supported her king, and she would also support the battle against the others.
Robb told her that most northerners believe in the old gods, and not their god of light.
The priestess nodded.
" Don't be afraid, I don't come for that...Conversion must be done sincerely" she said.
Robb looked at her.
"So how do you plan to help?" he asked.
"The Magna Carta," she said.
Robb looked at her confused.
"I suppose it is not in your books, previously in the battle prior to the others, the Magna Carta was developed, an alliance between creatures that serve the lord of light and those that serve the spirits of the forests and rivers," she said.
"R'hllor and the old gods, were they allied? " said the surprised man.
The priestess nodded.
"If you think about it, the alliance is still there, have you seen any red priest, trying to burn your trees?" she said.
Robb denied.
"No, we had problems with the faith of the seven, but not with red priests," he said.
"Even now after millennia, the Magna Carta is still active, the spirits of the forests do not interfere in their territory, we do not enter the territory of the spirits, and when the others attack, we both support each other," she said.
Robb looked at her surprised.
"And do the children know that?" he asked.
"Of course" they heard and saw Hoja enter.
"Is it true?" Robb asked.
The forest girl nodded.
"I was not there, the Magna Carta was written before I was in this world, but I was informed about it by my ancestors," said the girl from the forest.
Robb knew that she was over a thousand years old and despite her appearance, she had several lifetimes of experience.

Theon looked at Pike's towers, although he had obtained stay, the boy was humiliated by his comrades.
His father despised him.
The only one who talked to him was his sister.
Still, the boy's warnings were clear.
His father refused and called him a coward.
Theon replied that he led the Ironborn to Winterfell.
That he was not a coward
And he pointed to his father, telling him that he lost the war against Robert.
He bowed his knee and sacrificed it.
That he didn't attack the north and stayed in the comforts of Pike, he was the coward.
His furious father planned to sacrifice him, but Yara intervened on his behalf.
Saying that Theon is crazy because of the torture he received from the Boltons.
In private she laughed out loud at what she said to her father and congratulated her little brother.
"Don't be afraid, when the old man dies and I am queen, I will see what I can do for your friends the Starks," she promised him.
"Yara you don't understand, the iron islands will fall if Robb decides to attack," he said.
The woman looked at him.
"With what ships? The northerners are strong, but without ships, they can't get there. Why fear them then? " she finished.
[T/N: POV Jon: Huh? Who's looking for sh*t!]

Jon paced back and forth.
"You're going to make a hole in the ground, if you keep going like this," He heard Sam.
The boy couldn't help it, in the room opposite he could hear the screams of his wife giving birth to his heir.
"Eli knows what she's doing," Sam promised.
The boy looked at Sam.
There was nothing of the old Samuel Tarly.
Or rather, Samuel Tarly no longer existed.
Adopted by Valyria.
The boy changed his name to Sam Tarell.
Jon knew it was a mix of his former name and the name of his former lords. The Tarlys and the Tyrells.
Many had changed their names, as Valyria's contractions progressed, and obtained a lordship.
For example, he himself, no longer Snow, took the surname of his Targaryen wife to have a greater reputation as king of Valyria. He changed the Targaryen flag to a white wolf and a red dragon.
Sam, in addition to changing his last name, took as his wife Eli, a wild woman from the other side of the wall who had been enslaved with her sisters and freed by Sam. He also named his son in his honor. House Tarell had a green shield like Tarly and instead of Archers Sam added a red rose. He was the lord of Tyria.
Grenn, he added the last name Dragonborn (he said it suited him) and married his love, Jen, and he was expecting his child in a few months. Grenn was the lord of the Valyrian fields, in charge of food throughout the city. His shield was two crossed swords, one black and one white, Jon had no idea why, it was a normal shield, but Green never had much ethics.
Pyp, or Pypar, named himself Regent, Jon didn't know what it meant but he was currently the lord of RedSun. His shield was dozens of black eyes on a white background.
Arthur named himself Chosen, his shield was a group of men with weapons. He was the lord of Oros, and also managed the Valyrian military training camp.
Adam named himself Mercher, and managed Sansai, in addition to the markets of Valyria, his shield was gold, with black feathers.
Armand Louse, the former leader of the bear company, named himself Truenorth, and his shield was white with two black towers, he was the lord of Mantarys.
Mary Donoban still had the same name, her shield was a white shield with red bees. The woman of the bee troupe became the Dragon Center Mistress, and she managed the dragon training camp in Valyria for the time being. Jon suspected that she and Arthur were lovers too, but she didn't say anything.
There were also other lords such as Jason Ritder, who was one of Sansa's followers of Yunaki who managed the healing centers of Valyria.
And a subordinate of Adam, Robet Simson who managed the land of the commoners. There were also several minor lords, who were people who came to Valyria with the hope of living and worked hard during these early years.
Daario had accepted Jon's offer this time and became lord of Meeren. His attitude towards Danny ended when he saw Jon riding a dragon turning the nobles of Volantis into ashes. Or at least it was when Jon was around.
Jon of course administered all of Valyria, and focused on the noble area and their castle, as well as the treasury.
The boy felt desperate listening to his wife when the sound of a child crying appeared.
Jon found himself in the white room.
{Congratulations on the birth of your son.
You were awarded two skill points, one for your part in his birth, another for his part Stark.}
Jon ignored and pressed exit, he quickly entered the living room and saw Danny tired in bed holding a child. His wife watched him enter and smiled happily.
"Look, my love, our son," she whispered.
Eli stepped aside to let Jon pass, who was looking at the boy in wonder.
He caressed his forehead soothingly.
"What would you call it?" she asked.
Jon saw her and saw his son.
"I pray to the gods that I be as wise as your ancestor...Jaehaerys Taragayen," Jon told the boy.
Danny nodded at the name.
The conciliator
"It's perfect," she whispered.
Jon approached her and kissed her softly.
"Will you be leaving soon?" she whispered.
"Now I know that you and my son are safe, I will finish as quickly as I can, and don't be afraid, whenever, I can change places with my summons," he promised her.
Danny nodded.
"Yes, that's okay...I also have Balerion, Rhaegal, and Viserion with me," she said.
"I'll finish quickly," he murmured with a kiss.
