Lord Eddard Stark

Winterfell was a welcome sight, it was as if he had stepped out from a dream and into the light. The cold of the wall had been replaced by warmth and sunshine. There was nothing more to it than that. The fighting had gone on for so long, he had truly forgotten what the sun looked like. That was something that had worried him. But now, he was back and everything was better. The white walkers had been defeated and the children had not appeared, making him think that these things were not what they had once been. There had been discussions and other such things about what to do now that the wall was in a state of disrepair, and truth be told, with the wildlings dead, they were still unsure over what to do there.

Ned sighed, he walked with his wife, through the gardens of Winterfell. Their children were inside the castle, Robb was with his wife and their son- Ned and Catelyn's grandchild, a thought that continued to amaze him- Sansa was writing a letter to Prince Tommen, who had been confirmed as Prince of Storm's End by the King, Arya and Bran were playing, running through the godswood, and Rickon was asleep. They walked and Ned felt happy, he felt content, and he felt tired. "Thank you, my love." He said, when Cat looked up at him her eyebrow raised he elaborated. "For ensuring that things ran smoothly, whilst I was away I know it couldn't have been easy, but I wanted to thank you for doing so."

Catelyn laughed. "It was nothing, truthfully, Ned. The ladies of the north all worked together to ensure that the north didn't descend into anything during the time you were away. I'm more interested to hear about what is going to happen at the Wall. Is there still a Wall?"

Ned laughed. "There is some form of wall. It's a bit broken, and though it seems that the white walkers are all gone, and the wildlings are gone, Benjen wants to lead an expedition to the lands beyond the wall to ensure that everything is sorted. I told him that if he wished to lead such an expedition he could do so. I want to spend some time here with you all before I ever head north again."

Catelyn smiled. "I am glad of that, my love. Truly I am. Though do you think that there could be anything beyond the wall still. After all there were things there for some thousands of years, who knows whether they remain there still."

Ned sighed, he had thought over this and truthfully he did not know. "If I am being truthful, my love, I am not sure. I think that whatever was beyond the wall came and tried to take the Wall, and was defeated as best as we could managed. We still have the Dragonglass that was used and therefore I feel that things should be easier should something such as that ever come back again."

His wife nodded. "That makes sense, my love. Now come enough of that, let us return to our children." Ned smiled, he looked forward to the time of peace with his wife and their children.


King Jon I Baratheon

The crowd stood before him, or rather below him. He was dressed in the colours of his house, his wife at his side, his family behind them, his son was in his arms. Baby Steffon who he had known nothing about because of the war, until he had returned from the battle, with Viserys Targaryen's head on a spear. He smiled at his wife, and she smiled back at him. Steffon gurgled slightly and he laughed. Jon stood on the balcony, looking at the people gathered below and he spoke.

"We have faced difficulty, there were foreign invaders who tried to take what was not theirs. They brought harm to parts of our Kingdom, but we worked together and we made sure that they could not succeed. They were fools and they were idiots, and they would never succeed. They did not know that, but we did. We knew that working together we would triumph over evil." The crowd roared its approval. Jon smiled and continued. "For their part in helping defeat the enemy, Lord Robert Arryn and Lord Tywin Lannister have been granted the right of carrying the swords of state for the ceremonies to follow." That was one of the highest honours someone could be given, his grandfather had been saved by his appearance at the battle against the Dothraki. "The Dothraki have been destroyed down to the last man, woman and child, they shall never haunt our lands again." He had made sure of that, leading the bands to kill down the fools who had tried to hurt his land. There were more cheers at that. "My brother, Prince Tommen shall serve as Prince of Storm's End. I am delighted to announce his betrothal to Lady Sansa Stark." There were cheers there as well, Tommen had become quite popular. "I am also happy to announce that Daenerys Targaryen has agreed to join the Faith never again shall she or her ilk try and disturb the peace." More cheers. The girl's child had been killed. He ended the speech by saying. "We have fought long and hard and now we shall bring peace to the realm and ensure all can benefit. My son, Prince Steffon is the new Prince of Dragonstone, heir to the throne and the future." The crowd cheered. He then turned and kissed Margaery, deeply, when he pulled back she smiled and he returned the smile. Together they turned and walked back into the Red Keep. Three hundred years after Aegon Targaryen had conquered Westeros, things were finally settling down.
