Summary
In the eerie ruins of Harrenhal, Lord Tywin Lannister has plotted a way to ensure that his legacy lives on. While the open rebellion rages on and a second king, madder than Aerys Targaryen sits on the Iron Throne, Lord Lannister has devised a plot to swiftly decimate the rebellion, secure peace for the Seven Kingdoms, and fulfill his desires for the Legacy of the House Lannister. All the Great Lion of Casterly Rock must do is return to King's Landing and marry the Young Wolf's only heir, his twin sister, Lady Sansa Stark.
With the walls closing in around her, Lady Sansa Stark knows that her options are limited. When Margaery Tyrell, the Rose of Highgarden, comes to court and convinces King Joffrey to set their betrothal aside, Sansa is overjoyed to be freed from such a brutal man. King's Landing, however, is never safe. Freed from one marriage plot, Sansa finds herself unexpectedly in the lion's den with little experience of how to win the game of thrones. Has she traded one hell for another or has she been given the most precious gift in the world: the ability to play the game of thrones without the shadows to constrain her?
What if Tywin Lannister married Sansa Stark instead of Tyrion Lannister?

Summary
The greatest army of the undead has fallen and the only enemy that remains is the one in King's Landing. His only purpose was to live to die later until his little bird sang her songs again to make him stay away from that which would surely end him, and he kindled hope that there might be a victory yet to be won, but even she cannot quench that thirst that has left him dry since the fire took half of his face./She has seen the desire in his eyes that she did not understand as a child, but she cannot give herself to any man after how she had been broken before./He is the survivor that should not have been, thrice saved from death to return to his queen but sent to serve a greater purpose with a lesser man. Sandor, Sansa, and Jorah POV

Summary
Picking up where GRRM left us.
This story is written solely on book canon. I have never watched the show further than the first one and a half seasons. Mainly because of changes in the plot but also because of characterizations I couldn't recognize from the books.
This is an ASOIAF version, with a continuation of GRRM's plotlines.
Book one:
Part one - ch 1-17 (the fanficish beginning)
Part two - ch 18-24 (where I started truly writing)
Part three - ch 25-33 (flowing)Book two:
Part one - ch 34-41 (embracing)
Part two - ch 42-49 (expanding)Book three:
Part one - ch 50-?NLaMS was first posted in 2011-2014.
It's been updated from ch 35 in 2021-2022.Big parts of this story have been translated into Russian and French.

Summary
Oh, the locket whispered to her too, not only the boys, telling her all kinds of tales, and it had even suggested a ludicrous idea, that she’d take the Horcrux to Voldemort, getting a reward beyond all measure.
Hermione had only snorted, but that idea had set her mind on a new path, with a bold, brilliant idea that could change the war, if only executed right. And … when did she ever fail? This would work, she was positive. She, the Brightest Witch of Her Age, could do this, which no other man or woman would attempt.

Summary
In the years since the war, Hermione Granger has endeavored to foster reconciliation and reform — helping those once under the thumb of Voldemort find redemption and even growing close to a family she previously despised. But how far will her forgiveness extend?
When Antonin Dolohov returns from the grave, literally waltzing back into her life at a Yule masquerade, he bears a new name, a new mission, and a new promise: to restore her parents’ memories, albeit with one extreme condition. Hermione must decide how far she will go for her own blood, and how long she can avoid her quickly changing feelings for the man she once thought a monster.
But Antonin is not the only ghost at large, and the stakes get higher as the two of them get closer, week by week, to success — and to each other.
Audentes fortuna iuvat.
***COMPLETE.***
POVs: Hermione, Antonin, Lucius.
