    Summary

    "If you don't have friends, I'll be your friend", she decided.
    Jon's head shot around to look at her smiling face. "What?"
    "I'll be your friend", she repeated.
    Jon blinked and opened and closed his mouth like a fish, and Myrcella giggled.
    "But... but... you're a princess", he finally said.
    "And?", Myrcella shrugged. "You don't have friends, you prayed to the Gods to give you a friend, and I'm here - so, I'll be your friend." She smiled. "The Gods willed it."

    With Balon Greyjoy defeated, Robert gets the bright idea of dragging his wife, son, daughter and his wife's siblings to Winterfell for a friendly visit to Ned and to celebrate the birth of his friend's new daughter.

    Summary

    When Aegon the Conqueror conquered Westeros, the oldest great houses in the realm formed a secret council to discuss how the Seven Kingdoms fared under the Targaryen dynasty. Centuries hence, Tywin Lannister has ably managed the realm during the Mad King's reign. As the years go on, his hopes for a royal marriage wane more and more as he fears the gods' coin flip may have fallen for ill twice in succession. Tywin calls the council of old to discuss the problems plaguing the realm and what can be done about them.

    Soon thereafter, the nobles of Westeros converge upon the largest tourney the continent has ever seen.
