game of thrones fanfic
You have chosen the honourable Robb Stark of House Stark, the King in the North. You are famed for your numerous victories over House Lannister and your courage and decisiveness in battle. However you must now make a crucial decision in picking an ally to support....
You could try to ally with Balon Greyjoy. His ships will be crucial in the war against the Lannisters. However Balon is known for being untrustworthy and you are unsure about his motives, since your father took Balon's only son a hostage and invaded his home. Balon has rebelled once before and his pride and lack of sense may make for a dangerous situation. Can you rely on his greed to triumph over any ill feelings towards your House?
You could try to ally with Renly Baratheon. He commands the largest armies in the war with the full might of the Stormlands and the Reach. Unfortunately, Renly does not have the right claim to the Iron Throne and as an honourable man you would be betraying your principles. If only Stannis had declared his claim before Renly!
You could try to forge an alliance with your Aunt, Lysa Arryn. She has a large army of mounted knights that would be essential to your war effort. However, you know from your mother that Lysa is known to be erratic and fearful and her decision to stay neutral in this conflict appears genuine. Is it even worth the effort?
Or you could try to ally with all three of them. It can't hurt to keep all your options open, especially since your one priority is to defeat the Lannisters as swiftly as possible with a winning coalition.
