''Three hundred years after Aegon the Conqueror built a new empire on the ashes of the Valyrian Freehold the known world is a place of war. The Targaryen Empire is pressed by enemies, the Seven Kingdoms war amongst themselves and forces contrive to pull them all apart. Amidst all this are a prince and princess who fear themselves ruined by the horrors they've endured. Together they might be the hope their people are looking for. More importantly, they might be the dream both abandoned long ago.''

''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/3636984/chapters/8034318 The Conquest]]'' is an ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'' AU where the Targaryens never conquered Westeros. As a result, the Seven Kingdoms remain separate, and the Targaryen Empire now rules over Essos instead. When Eddard Stark, the King In The North, is murdered, his sister Lyanna brings her son and his armies to fight the enemies of the North, and secure the Empire a foothold in Westeros. What follows is, quite simply, epic.
