The line of the uncrowned a ck2 agot aar

[Alfredvidstige]

Hello everyone and welcome to this aar which technically is my fourth aar but this time i have decided to reboot my first aar which was named The rightful Dragonlord of Westeros instead of doing something new. The reason i have decided to reboot this aar in particular is because with the release of Fire and Blood we have learned some new things about the characters that will be central to this aar at least in the beginning. However even before the release of Fire and Blood the fantastic modders that has made this mod implemented some additional information from The World of Ice and Fire but that was after my aar.

But before i finish this introduction i want to explain the current political situation as it stands in Westeros at the start of this aar.


However to fully explain the political situation in Westeros we have to go back almost four decades before our start to the time of Aegon's Conquest. As most of you probably know or will be able to guess it was Aegon the conqueror who conquered and made the seven kingdoms of Westeros into one. However Aegon the conqueror is also notable for taking both of his sisters Visenya and Rhaenys to wife which was unusual even for the valyrians who usually only married one sister or relative in order to keep the bloodline pure which enabled them to ride dragons.

These sisters eventually gave their brother one son each the elder of the boys was Aenys the son of Rhaenys and the son of Visenya was Maegor. When these sons eventually reached a suitable age to marry Aenys married his cousin Alyssa Velaryon who within a year from their wedding gave him a daughter named Rhaena after Rhaenys who had been killed in a war when Aenys was only three. The birth of Rhaena lead Visenya to suggest that Rhaena marry Maegor in order to settle the question of succession whether Maegor or Rhaena were second in line to the iron throne. However the high septon who is essentially the pope for those who don't know protested against this marriage which lead the high septon to suggest his niece the lady Ceryse Hightower as a suitable marriage candidate for prince Maegor which Aegon accepted.

The reason the high septon rejected this marriage is because of the incest which the faith of the seven the main religion of Westeros heavily disapproves of. Around a decade later however Maegor had not produced a single child with Ceryse which lead him to take a second wife in the lady Alys Harroway which outraged the faith. Because of this Aenys who now was the king had to exile his own brother in order to satisfy the faith. However Aenys eventually decided that his eldest daughter Rhaena would marry her eldest brother Aegon who was the heir to the iron throne. The faith of course hated this decision but Aenys would not change his mind. This lead Aenys to send Rhaena and Aegon on a progress in order for the people of Westeros to become fond of them but this went terribly bad and Aegon and Rhaena who were forced to seek shelter in Casterly Rock were Rhaena gave birth to their twin daughters Aerea and Rhaella. At the same time however Aenys was forced to flee the capital of Kings landing to the Targaryen ancestral home Dragonstone where died. Visenya who still lived at this point chose to fetch her son Maegor who was still in exile back to Westeros where he took the throne by force.


This is the current political situation in Westeros and i will be starting in the faith militant uprising bookmark as prince Aegon Targaryen eldest son and heir of king Aenys. Alongside the usual agot mod i will also be using the more bloodlines submod. If you notice some grammatical error feel free to correct me as english is not my native language.

Rhaena Targaryen was playing with her young daughters she was trying to encourage them to walk to and from herself and her good friend Alayne Royce.

“They seem to be in a great hurry to learn how to walk almost as if they expect to be able to fully walk without any support today then learn how run tomorrow and no doubt they will want and expects a dragon of their own the day after that Samantha Stokeworth said jokingly”

“Stop taunting us Targaryens however i have to confess that we do like our dragons Rhaena replied with a smile on her face”


“And your siblings Samantha added”


At that Rhaena suddenly stopped smiling and thought to herself is there no place in the whole of Westeros where i can escape reality. Rhaena found it hard to believe that only six years ago everything in her life had been almost perfect then her beloved grandsire still sat the iron throne and spoiled herself and her siblings to no end but he had been especially fond of her. Rhaena could well remember the moment she had first flown upon her dragon Dreamfyre at the age of twelve but she had an even stronger memory of the moment she landed in the courtyard of Dragonstone there she had been meet by her father and grandfather. Her grandfather had been the first to speak.



“Well what do you think of having a dragon at your own command”


She had simply answered that it felt like nothing she had ever felt before and that she wanted to immediately leap back onto the back of Dreamfyre. At that her grandfather Aegon the conqueror had laughed and simply said.


“ Then you have the kings leave to go”


“Thank you Rhaena said and bowed but before i fly may i ask you one thing grandfather?”


“Of course ask whatever you want and i will answer”


“What was my grandmother the queen Rhaenys like?”


“She was kindhearted,playful and curious and would have loved you and your siblings dearly”


Rhaena had noticed that her grandfather had hesitated before answering the question and her father looked like he was about to faint Rhaena suspected that he had become very nervous for he had never truly known his own mother as she had been killed when her father was only three years old. But that was all many years ago however Rhaena could not stop thinking about her father not only had her father lost his mother early in his life but when his father had and the grandfather of Rhaena had died her poor father had almost immediately been faced several rebellions and then his own brother had betrayed him by taking a second wife which had forced her father to exile his own brother in order to satisfy the faith. But the faith of the seven and the high septon had not been satisfied even though her father continually tried to please the faith even going as far to appoint a septon to the position of hand of the king. In his final days even her gentle father had grown tired of the faith and its leadership after all shortly after her own wedding to her brother Aegon the high septon had written a letter not to his highness king Aenys the first of his name king of the andals, the rhoynar and the first men lord of the seven kingdoms and protector of the realm but to king abomination. Her father had hoped that Rhaena and Aegon could gain the love of the commons like their grandmother had done by sending them on a royal progress but instead of gaining the love and admiration of the smallfolk the smallfolk had loathed them they had even gone so far as to throwing dirt on Rhaena and Aegon.



“Rhaena Rhaena Rhaena do you hear me?”



“Yes i hear you melony what is it?”


“It seemed like you were daydreaming and i suspect that any dreams you have at the present are not likely to be positive”


“Thank you Melony”



“Melony Piper sighed and said just because you do not say how you feel does not mean that we cannot guess it”


“Melony speaks the truth Samantha Stokeworth continued you are afraid”


“I am not afraid Rhaena replied defensively i am the flesh and blood of Aegon the conqueror and of the dragonlords of old Valyria before him”


“ You do not need to be ashamed it is only natural for you to be afraid after all you are not only afraid for your own sake but also for the sake of your daughter and their father who is also your brother who is risking his life and all ours lives and you also fear for the lives of your other siblings Viserys who is now a captive of your cruel uncle and for Jaehaerys and little Alysanne along with your mother on Dragonstone Alayne Royce added”

“ As for you and your siblings being the blood of Aegon the Conqueror it does not matter for so is Maegor Samantha said”


“Besides when it comes to being dragonlords i fear you are outmatched by Maegor aye you have your Dreamfyre and your Aegon his Quicksilver and Jaehaerys is bonded with Vermithor and even Alysanne has her Silverwing but even i that know little enough of dragons understands that they are little more than hatchlings aye Quicksilver is not small but even he could not hope to stand against Vhagar it might be that with all of the dragons of you and your siblings you could defeat Vhagar alone but your brother might face the full power of both Vhagar and the black dread Balerion alone. But even if we are not dragons i think i speak for everyone of us when i say that if it comes to it i would gladly die in your service and i swear to you that even if Maegor himself comes on the black dread to Pinkmaiden i would rather Pinkmaiden become a second Harrenhal than surrender to a man who still would put us all to death Melony piper said”

Alyssa! Alyssa! Alyssa!

Alyssa Velaryon could feel the bedsheet being removed from her and within an instant she had almost thrown herself into a sitting position breathing heavily and searching for the one that had removed the bedsheet from her.


“It is only me Alyssa”


“What are you doing in my bedchamber Daemon?”

Alyssa was pleased that the one who roused her from her sleep was only her brother and not one of her handmaid's or one of the servants for while she held no ill will towards the girls anyone of them could be informants for Maegor or even worse they might be giving information to the pentoshi witch Tyanna of the tower who had somehow convinced Maegor to take her to wife even though he already had two other wives in the persons of Alys Harroway and his true wife Ceryse Hightower. Poor Ceryse Alyssa thought to herself Ceryse Hightower had been married to Maegor for nearly twenty years but as they had failed to produce a child together though mayhaps this was a blessing in disguise for though Alyssa knew Ceryse to be a very kind and gentle woman Maegor was nothing of the sort and would be a terrible father wholly unlike his brother Aenys. Aenys had been a kind and loving father but sometimes thought that they might have had a better life if Aenys had been the second or third son of Aegon the conqueror that would have suited him much more than being the eldest and therefore next in line to the iron throne of the seven kingdoms. Suddenly Alyssa heard Daemon cough and remembered that she was not alone.


“You did not answer my question what are you doing here Daemon”




“I have summoned the loyal lords of Blackwater bay to Dragonstone and they will soon be waiting for us in the chamber of the painted table”



“Why?”



“Why Alyssa you ask me why if you hadn't noticed we are at war and we could be defeated any minute all it takes is for Maegor to mount Balerion or Visenya Vhagar and fly to Dragonstone and make it another Harrenhal and burn us along with the fortress to the ground”


“They wouldn't do that to their own home”



“How do you know that?”




“I know them i lived with them for years”



“You lived with Aenys for years not them aye you may have lived close to them and seen them every day but then you had your safety in Aenys who at first was the heir apparent to Aegon the conquerors throne and then he was the king but now Alyssa Maegor sits the iron throne and you and your children are little more than potential threats to his throne according to Visenya and Maegor”


Alyssa did not want to ask the question nor admit that her brother might be right but she had to ask.


“Do you really think they would kill children that are of their own blood?”



“They might do but you forget that your children are not even fully the blood of Maegor or Visenya and no i am not talking about the blood that you and i share with them but i think that you might have forgotten that Aegon the conqueror took both of his sisters to wives and that your beloved Aenys was the son of Rhaenys whilst Maegor is Visenya's son”



“That i have not forgotten that my children are of the blood of Rhaenys but neither have i forgotten that we have a council to attend”


“That we have and we will need to be there therefore suggest that you dress yourself and then join me on the way to the council i will be waiting for you outside of your room”





After Alyssa Velaryon had dressed herself she found her brother outside her bedchamber waiting for her as he had said he would.


“What took you so long” Daemon jokingly said


“I understand that such womanly matters may seem complicated to men but sometimes beauty takes time but come Daemon let us walk to the chamber of the painted table together”


Alyssa answered with a smile on her face and just for a moment she thought she was back on Driftmark and that she once again was a little girl the daughter of the mighty lord Aethan Velaryon lord admiral and master of ships to Aegon the conqueror. Alyssa also remembered how overprotective her brothers had been of her she had been their precious little sister and besides the youngest of all her siblings. However Alyssa was no longer a little girl but the widow of a king and Daemon was no longer just an overprotective brother as he had inherited their father's titles when he died several years back so instead of just being Daemon Velaryon her brother now styled himself lord of the tides and Master of Driftmark just as their father and their fathers father had done before him and as future Velaryons would do after him.


Suddenly a little girl appeared from a corner looking backwards and screaming.


“Catch me if you can!”


Just as the girl turned her head towards Alyssa and Daemon she ran into Daemon. But instead of humbly apologizing to their faces as a girl of common birth would this girl simply mumbled something along the lines of.


“Excuse me or could you move”


As hard as she tried Alyssa could not keep herself from smiling she was glad that the girl did not even care to look on their faces.


“Is that how you would apologize to your own uncle” Alyssa said in the sternest voice she could muster.

“Mother?”


Alysanne's voice suddenly changed but instead of the nonchalant and confident young girl that had stood before them only seconds earlier now they saw a nervous little girl who seemed to be ashamed of herself with a shaky voice and almost close to tears Alysanne said


“Please forgive me”



Suddenly Alyssa bent her knees so that her and Alysanne's eyes were on the same level hugged her daughter and said.

“There is nothing to forgive after all it's not like you hurt uncle Daemon but why were you running?”


“I and Jaehaerys are playing a game”


“And what are the rules of this game” Daemon asked


“I am supposed to run away from him and i win if i can our bedchambers before him and he wins if he catches me”


“Then where is your brother?”


Alyssa asked but then she heard a voice behind them that said.


“Ah there you are”


With a laugh and a smile Alysanne ran back the way she had come and both Daemon and Alyssa moved aside so that Jaehaerys could easily run after his sister.


“It seems like Jaehaerys took a shortcut” Daemon said.


“That he must have done he has always been a clever boy” Alyssa answered.




“They remind me of Rhaena and Aegon when they where their age” Daemons suddenly said as they were making their way to the chamber of the painted table.



“No doubt most children with the blood of old valyria running in their veins remind you of your own or my children mayhaps they look alike but Rhaena and Alysanne is as different as night is to day and Jaehaerys is much smarter than Aegon were at his age” Alyssa replied with a sad look on her face.

“But you miss them nonetheless” Daemon said


“That i do and i fear for their lives every day”


“You do not need to be afraid for them they are adults now Alyssa and besides both have a dragon to defend them”



“They may be fully grown but i fear that Aegon is still the little boy that loved to listen to the stories of his grandfathers conquest or Serwyn of the mirror shield. After all what chance do he have against Maegor and Visenya”


“He may not be able to defeat Maegor or Visenya in single combat but he does not need to met them on the field of battle he has many supporters who would gladly give their lives to defend him”



“Who are these supporters that you speak of brother?”


“Among those that have declared themselves openly are the lords Piper,Vance,Farman,Corbray,Tarbeck,Frey and Westerling”

Alyssa sighed and said.


“But those are all little more than petty lords have any of the great houses offered Aegon any support whatsoever?”



“House lannister have given Aegon five hundred men from Lannisport and Lord Lyman's own bastard has decided to fight for Aegon”


“That is good Alyssa” answered


“But i wish he had more”


“Could you perhaps stop talking we are approaching the chamber of the painted table and our leal lords must not even suspect that you or i do not think that we truly stand a chance else they might even abandon us and join Maegor”


“As you wish dear brother” Alyssa answered




“When they entered the chamber of the painted table Alyssa could see that her and Daemon were the last to arrive among those who had been gathered were lord Edwell Celtigar and old lord Sunglass and even lord Bar Emmon of Sharp point she even noticed the master-at-arms of Dragonstone ser Elyas Scales and all of them seemed to talk with each other.



It was only when they herald noticed them and introduced them as


“Alyssa of the house Velaryon dowager queen to king Aenys Targaryen the first of his name and mother to his grace Aegon the second of his name the true lord of the seven kingdoms and protector of the realm and her brother Daemon of the house Velaryon lord of the tides and master of Driftmark”


Suddenly old lord Sunglass rose from the only seat in the room where one could look over the entire map of Westeros from the location of where Dragonstone was supposed to be Sunglass then turned towards Alyssa and said.


“Forgive me your grace my legs are not what they used to be but it would be most improper of me if i was the one to sit in the seat of the conqueror himself whilst a member of the royal family was in our midst”

“Thank you lord Aegon” Alyssa said as she moved towards the chair.



When Alyssa had reached the chair Daemon moved so that he stood right by her side and then said.



“Thank you my lords for coming as you will know i have summoned all of you to Dragonstone in order to prepare for war for as you well know the pretender Maegor Targaryen has taken the iron throne without right and in this very moment my nephew our rightful king is mustering forces in the riverlands”


“It is folly to try and fight the whole of westeros along with both Maegor and Visenya who will bring Balerion the black dread and Vhagar with them. I remind you that it is those very beasts that less than half a century ago brought almost the whole of westeros to its knees. I say let us lay down our arms and surrender and not only hope for mercy but mayhaps even just rewards for helping him bring down our pretender” Lord Edwelll Celtigar said.

Suddenly ser Elyas Scales drew his sword and pointed it at lord Celtigar and said.



“Are you a craven or traitor celtigar do you truly think Maegor would spare us we who have rebelled against him whilst he only put the entire garrison of the eyrie to death for the crime of rebelling against his half brother even after they had yielded the fortress”



“Sheath your sword at once ser Elyas” Daemon commanded before saying.

“Lord Celtigar for those words i would arrest you were we not in such a dangerous situation were we need every man we can get. But as i was about to say we should send reinforcements to our king at once”


“Do we even know where he is?” old lord Sunglass asked


“ We have had reports that he is mustering forces close to Harrenhal” Alyssa answered


“Let me lead our forces” ser Elyas suddenly said.

“Forgive me ser Elyas but you do not have my permission to lead our reinforcements to our king for i will lead them myself but if that is indeed you wish you shall accompany me when we depart early in the morning tomorrow.

Viserys Targaryen suddenly woke from his sleep and for a second he thought that he was on Dragonstone but then it all came back to him. Viserys remembered his father's death and how he had been taken by his uncle to squire for him. He remembered how his mother Alyssa had told him to be brave and obey his uncle and his uncles mother the dowager queen Visenya in everything they told him to do. Suddenly Viserys felt a shiver down his spine when he heard a voice say .


“I see that you are already awake”


Viserys instantly calmed down for a second he had thought he heard the voice of the false knight Olyvar Bracken or perhaps ser Raymund Mallery who was even worse than Olyvar Bracken. Viserys suspected that both of them would have beaten him to death long ago if he was not who he was for even though Viserys knew well that he was a hostage in all but name he still remained the king's nephew and officially the kings own squire.

“Your highness is summoned to eat your breakfast with his grace the king and his queens” Ser Davos Darklyn said.


Viserys was not particularly surprised he was used to eating his breakfast with his uncle and his uncle wives and mother though he still did not know what to think of most of them the only one Viserys was somewhat fond of was the lady Ceryse who had been born a Hightower of Oldtown and was the niece of the current high septon. Though when it came to the other queens Viserys thought that the lady Alys Harroway seemed nice enough but something still seemed off with her. Then there was the king's raven Tyanna of Pentos Viserys had even heard that she was a witch and that she was not even truly of noble birth though it was true that she was the daughter of a pentoshi magister and besides she seemed like a very wicked person. Then there was Visenya Targaryen the wife of Aegon the conqueror and Maegor's mother Viserys did not truly know what to think of her even though he had known her all his life. Suddenly Viserys said.


“If it is my uncles wish then let it be so but where are we to meet them?” Viserys asked


“We are to meet his grace and their highnesses in the great hall for his grace intends to hold court at the same time that he eats”


Viserys almost protested against the idea but stopped himself for he had no doubt that he would be punished for even if ser Davos did not say anything it was said that queen Tyanna had spies everywhere so instead of protesting Viserys simply said.


“ Do i have your permission to change into clothes that are more suitable for a prince of the blood of the dragon to wear in public”


“That you have” Ser Davos Darklyn said kindly


Viserys was glad that his kingsguard for the day was ser Davos Darklyn for he was the only one of the kingsguard that treated Viserys well and in return Viserys considered him to be the only current kingsguard that was actually worthy the white cloak that every member of the kingsguard wore. Sometimes Viserys had wondered why ser Davos had treated him so well but then he had recalled that they were related through marriage as the aunt of ser Davos had been the lady Meredyth Darklyn who had wedded Viserys maternal uncle Daemon Velaryon and was therefore the cousin of Daemons children which were also the cousins of Viserys. However Viserys feared for the next day already as the kingsguard that guarded him were never the same two days in a row Viserys suspected that it was in order to prevent any of the kingsguard from growing close to him.



When Viserys Targaryen and ser Davos Darklyn reached the great hall Viserys saw that most of the lords that lived close to King's landing had been summoned by his uncle. Then Viserys heard ser Davos almost shout.


“Make way for his highness the prince Viserys of the house Targaryen”


When the crowd of lords and knights dispersed to make way for Viserys and ser Davos and Viserys could see the iron throne and on it sat his half uncle Maegor Targaryen who was dressed as if he was going to war. Besides he could also see a table almost at the foot of the iron throne and at the table sat all of Maegor's queens and his small council but Viserys could not believe his eyes for amongst the members of the small council sat his uncle Lucerys Velaryon. Viserys suddenly felt so joyful that he only wanted to run towards and seat himself at the side of his uncle but then he began to think about what his uncle was doing in King's landing by rights he should be on driftmark or even better in the riverlands fighting for Aegon or on Dragonstone protecting mother,Jaehaerys and Alysanne. However Viserys could not change the fact that his uncle could potentially be a traitor to Aegon's cause. When they reached the table Viserys still choose to sit at his uncle's side even though his mother's brother probably was a traitor to his own brother. When Viserys had seated himself he heard how Tyanna of the tower whispered to him in a mocking voice.

“What took you so long your highness?”



When Viserys was about to answer he was interrupted by Maegor's first wife Ceryse Hightower who said.

“Do not answer her Viserys”


Then Ceryse turned toward Tyanna and said.


“By what right do you dare to insult a prince of the seven kingdoms”


“ I am a queen and i was just talking to my husbands nephew”


Ceryse suddenly burst into laughter when Tyanna said she was a queen and replied.


“Ah are you a queen now i who thought that you were a bastard born whore”


Suddenly queen Visenya said.

“Silence both of you i will not have the wives of my son bicker and argue amongst themselves”


Then Visenya rose from her seat and walked towards the iron throne and when she reached it she addressed all the lords and knights she began by saying.


“Lords and knights of renown as you know you have been summoned in order to defend the rights of my son to his father's crown for as most of you will know my great-nephew Aegon the eldest son of king Aenys has laid claim to the crown as he sees it as his birthright. However we cannot let him take it for the realm needs a man on the throne not a boy for the faithful have risen up against us as well they claim that your king is an abomination and have broken the laws of gods and men. However i remind you that we Targaryens are not like lesser men our roots go back to the dragonlords of old Valyria where custom decreed that we keep our bloodline pure in order to be able to ride our mighty dragons not to Andalos. Therefore the laws of the seven do not apply to those of the blood of old Valyria it is indeed sinful for one of common blood to sleep with brothers and sisters.

Suddenly lord Jacelyn Thorne stepped out of the large crowd and said.

"Forgive me your highness but what you are suggesting is treason to take the throne from the boy the very same throne that was the seat of his father and his fathers father"

To Viserys shock Visenya simply smiled and answered.

"Your loyalty does you great honor lord Jacelyn but i am sorry to be the bearer of bad news yes the boys father did indeed sit on the throne but his grandsire did not"

Suddenly the whole court who until now had been talking silently with each other went silent.

Then lord Jonos Rosby asked

"Pardon me your grace but are you accusing your own beloved sister of being a whore"

With a sigh Visenya answered.

"Yes for as you all know my sister often surrounded herself with many singers and mummers and one of them was surely the father of Aenys"


“ Then what does his grace command?” Lord Jonos Rosby asked

“You will march against my enemies and destroy them ” Maegor suddenly said


“But Aegon has a dragon”


“We have two and besides Quicksilver could never hope to defeat Vhagar alone she will not stand a chance against Vhagar and Balerion together” Visenya said



“Then who should we march on first?” Lord Steffon Darklyn asked


Visenya hesitated for several minutes before saying


“The faith is the bigger threat so long as they are against us the people of Westeros will only grow to hate us even more but and give them aid but if we defeat them we can tell the people of Westeros that they are corrupt and have turned away from their own gods”


“Then let it be known to all my loyal subjects that i march to Oldtown and then i will deal with my nephew” Maegor replied



Viserys suddenly began to fear for his brother for though Aegon was good with a sword Viserys knew that he would stand no chance against Maegor.



Later that day when Viserys trained at arms with ser Davos Darklyn in the courtyard Maegor and Visenya rode past them. Ser Davos instantly stopped training with Viserys and walked towards Maegor and Visenya and asked.


“Where are your highnesses headed”



“ To the dragon pit and then towards Harrenhal to deal with this pretender to the throne” Visenya answered while looking at Viserys.



“But did you not say you were marching to deal with the faith first” Ser Davos asked



“You are a great fool to think that i would announce our plans openly for i know well that my sisters grandchildren still have a few friends at court and i did not wholly lie most of our leal bannermen will indeed march on Oldtown” Visenya Targaryen said.

Thank you and if you do not know this aar begins around 250 years before game of thrones begins.

 

[Alfredvidstige]

Hello everyone i just want everybody to know that i have downloaded the newest version of the game of thrones mod but that does not mean that i will be ending this aar for the chapters i have released so far are only introductions to the pov characters and therefore do not rely on anything i have played. However i will use console command so that the characters that have been introduced will have the same traits as they had at the beginning of this aar.


As for the writing itself i think i will be able to release the last introductory chapter either later today or tomorrow.
