3	!!Tropes that appear in this fanfic:
4	* ActionFilmQuietDramaScene: Several scenes not focused on epic battles are dedicated to quiet moments like the Stark siblings' reunion, further characterization of main and supporting characters, and budding relationships [[spoiler:such as Jon's developing romance with Sansa and Daenerys]].
5	* ActionGirl: Brienne, Arya, and later both Dany and Sansa. Also the Fireguard, Sansa's own protection force is made up mostly of red-haired women.
6	* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Inverted with Sansa, who isn't sent to Ramsay and raped. Played straight with Alys Karstark, who [[CompositeCharacter takes Sansa's place]] as the Northern girl offered to the Boltons.
7	* AdaptedOut: Jon saying "Olly" when he gets stabbed. He says "Ghost" instead.
8	* ClingyJealousGirl: Lysa Arryn. Considering she thought that Brienne was going to steal Littlefinger...
9	* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation:
10	** Downplayed, Stannis is still killed [[InSpiteOfANail as in canon]] except Brienne was not his killer.
11	** Fed to his dogs by Sansa in the show, here Ramsay is executed by Jon after being defeated by his army.
12	* EyeScream: Jon's horse gets shot in the eye during the Battle of the Bastards.
13	* FixFic: Part this and an AlternateUniverseFic, exploring the results of Lysa sending Sansa to the Wall, as well as improving upon Season 7 and 8.
14	* ForWantOfANail: Thanks to Sansa's output Jon manages to rally almost the entire North against Ramsay, and would, with help, later create plans that will bring about Ramsay's fall much faster than in canon.
15	* HeelFaceTurn: Harald Karstark, disgusted with himself over offering Alys to the Boltons, decides to turn on Ramsay in the Battle of the Bastards and helps Alys escape to Jon's lines.
16	* InSpiteOfANail:
17	** Stannis's disastrous campaign occurs off-page, though Brienne does not kill him as in the show.
18	** Jon gets stabbed by the mutineers.
19	* {{Irony}}: Jon kills Rhaegar Frey, who is named for Jon's father Rhaegar.
20	* KissingCousins: [[spoiler:Jon and Sansa]]
21	* NotSoDifferentRemark: Ramsay's speech to Jon while on the chopping block.
22	-->'''Ramsay''': You’re just like me. A lord raised a bastard. Abandoned and ignored even though we’re better than the rest. You’re no different than I am, you’re just on the winning side this time, bastard.
23	* OffWithHisHead: Ramsay Bolton is executed by decapitation by Jon.
24	* ProfaneLastWords: Ramsay's last words to Jon, as seen above before his execution.
25	* PuppyLove: Rickon with Joanna, Karsi's elder daughter.
26	* SilkHidingSteel: [[TookALevelInBadass Sansa]] is driven to stay beside Jon and protect/support him no matter what. And later in [[spoiler:Daenerys]] wastes no time showing her hidden edge as well in regards to Jon.
27	* SparedByTheAdaptation: Lysa Arryn, Rickon Stark.
