This story includes MULTIPLE plot-threads that both intertwine and diverge, every action will be explained at some point, there is no stone un-turned. By the end of this story, you will be an expert on this foreign land and it's four kingdoms.

Additional details: What was supposed to be a Game of Thrones crossover, ended up turning into a full fledged fanfic only incorporating a few themes and motif's from GoT. If you are a fan of the series books or TV then you will catch a few obscure references, however, this story is much less of a crossover and more of an original story.
