The Lonely Fawn
Hey, this is my second try at a Game of Thrones AAR. I hope this one will be longer lived than my other AAR. This one takes place in an alternate course of events that occur during The War of the Five Kings. I will be playing as Shireen Baratheon, rightful queen of the Seven Kingdoms. The story will be told from her perspective in the form of diary entries, as well as with the help of other POV characters in the third person. Be warned, there will be spoilers for A Game of Thrones and half of A Clash of Kings, or seasons 1 and 2 of the Tv show. Please enjoy!

Chapter 1-Shireen Baratheon
7th Moon, Day 20, Year 302 AL
Dear Marianne,
I am writing to you from my tower room in this great new castle. Except it isn’t really a new castle, but an ancient one, one of the oldest in the whole world. Maester Cressen used to tell me stories of how a wise wolf from the North built it so high and tall that nothing would ever get in. The god of storms threw all his might at these great strong walls, but still they wouldn’t come down. I loved to hear him tell stories, but ever since he’s disappeared I have no one to talk to. Mother left Patches on Dragonstone. She says he’s a bad influence.
It’s at least warmer here though. That wolf built the walls nice and strong, so none of the storms outside can get in. It makes a change from home. Dragonstone was so cold and empty. I miss it because it’s home, but I still hope that Storm’s End will be a nicer one.
Storm’s End, it sounds so fierce but… safe at the same time. Storm's End, where all your troubles will melt away. I wish that would start happening soon. During these last three years, my life just seems to be getting worse and worse.
After Father set sail from Dragonstone, nothing’s worked out for him. He tried to take King’s Landing but those treacherous Lannisters married that Tyrell girl, and together their armies made short work of his. Then father went north to save Westeros from the Wildlings at the Wall, while Ser Davos gathered a new army for us in the Stormlands. Then father came back from the North, with thanks from the new Lord Commander. I know my father, and I bet he was hoping for more than just words from them.
Just as things seemed to getting better, everything began to get worse again. A giant Tyrell army landed on Dragonstone, and began to try and take it. Father’s army was beaten and the Tyrells almost got us along with the island, but, thank the Seven, Ser Davos smuggled us out in time.
Melisandre would burn this whole book and probably me too if she saw what I just wrote. The truth is I don’t know what to believe and sometimes I feel like I’m the rope in a big, holy tug-of-war match. I know it sounds silly, but whether it's the gods or a God seems to mean much to everyone else.
My father probably thought the war was over, but then we got lucky. A strange banker from Bravos came to Storm’s End and made my father a deal: you pay us back, and we’ll get you your Iron Throne. So Davos set sail again and came back with an enormous army of mercenaries. He was just in time to watch father make candles of the rebel septons who tried to kill him. I think the whole thing was sick and horrible. Of all the things about the Lord of Light, it’s the burning I hate the most. Lucky for me, I wasn’t forced to watch.
So father set out again, and this time it was even worse. Father was taken prisoner, and brought before the so-called king. That horrible spoiled lion king was going to torture him, but my father demanded a Trial by Combat. Some say I should thank Ser Loras for stepping in so my father wouldn’t have to face Trial by Fire instead. I don’t say anything, but I know in my heart that queens never thank kingslayers.
