Queen Alysanne and Rhaenys Targaryen ✨

A ruler needs a good head and a true heart,” she told the king. “A c•ck is not essential.”

“If Your Grace truly believes that women lack the wit to rule, plainly you have no further need of me.”

_ Alysanne.

Green stans finding their way into the Team Black tag trying to convince people that both Teams end up losing the war - Never not funny.

Please, read the book and try to understand that even though the Blacks didn’t win the way they expected to, they still won. They’re still standing. They actually exist.

The Dance ends with the Seven Kingdoms under the control of the Blacks (since the final battle of the war was won by them):

Aegon III Targaryen

Viserys II Targaryen

Baela Targaryen

Rhaena Targaryen

Alyn Velaryon

Cregan Stark

Jeyne Arryn

Kermit Tully

Corwyn Corbray

Black Aly

Benjicot Blackwood etc.

Where are the Greens in this whole scenario? Dead? Extinct? Cool. Justice. House Targaryen’s biggest mistake, corrected.

So, you TG stans finally get the picture? The Greens are history (not even that, since history doesn’t bother remembering them).

TDIOBCB challenge - day 11:

M/F Ship - Baelor of Harrenhall and Alys Stark

This time I don't have captions or quotes to show you, but only a brief description. This adorable couple, in fact, is not present in the main story, and they will only meet years after the end of TDIOBCB. However, their love story is so important for the lore of this AU that I decided to draw them anyway. Since the events I will describe are subsequent to the fic, there will be some spoilers.

"Prince Baelor Targaryen, son of Aemond Targaryen and Alys Rivers, and Lady Alys Stark, eldest daughter of Lord Cregan and his second wife Alysanne Blackwood, met in 146 AC, three years after the main events of TDIOBCB, when the young prince - then six and ten years old - went to Winterfell for a visit. Although they hadn't seen each other in person before this moment, their destinies had long been intertwined, even before birth. It was thanks to Black Ally, who had intervened between the High Priestess and Daemon Targaryen, that Alys and her unborn child were not killed after the defeat of the Greens. To thank the young lady for her courage and devotion, the High Priestess appeared in a dream to Cregan Stark, urging him to come to Harrenhal, where he would meet his future bride. Indeed, it was thanks to her that the two met and fell in love instantly: from their love, four daughters were born, but the first they had decided to name Alys, in honor of the woman who had united them in marriage under the Weirwood of Harrenhal. Timidly, the two young people approached each other and secretly promised eternal love. Upon returning to the capital, the prince expressed to his parents his desire to marry the young lady and no one else. The day of their wedding was a happy day for everyone, even for the groom's father, who, though famous for his composure, could not help but be moved to see his only son get married."

The wives of Cregan Stark... Arra, the childhood companion he lost in their youth. Alysanne, the wartime wife he loved with all his heart. Lynara, the wife who survived him and bore his sons.

The Blacks and the Greens

“The great lords would have given us another two years of war,” the fool declares in his Testimony, “it was the women who made the peace. Black Aly, the Maiden of the Vale, the Three Widows, the Dragon Twins, ’twas them who brought the bloodshed to an end, and not with swords or poison, but with ravens, words, and kisses.”

Fire and Blood (George R. R. Martin)

[acewithapencil]

“Though his half-sister was dead, she still had supporters in the field who must needs be dealt with before His Grace could hope to sit the Iron Throne again.”

“King Aegon II would soon stand naked before his enemies, all of the king’s men knew. Bloody Ben Blackwood, Kermit Tully, Sabitha Frey, and their brothers-in-victory were preparing to resume their advance upon the city, and only a few days behind them came Lord Cregan Stark and his northmen. The Braavosi fleet carrying the Arryn host had departed Gulltown and was sailing toward the Gullet, where only young Alyn Velaryon stood in its way… and the loyalty of Driftmark could not be relied upon.”

“Yet queen’s men had remained, even after the queen herself was dead, and ‘Aegon is reduced to bones and ashes.’”

Alysanne Blackwood - Rahul Mishra Haute Couture Spring 2023

Alysanne Blackwood, also known as Black Aly, was a member of House Blackwood. During the Targaryen civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons, the Blackwoods sided with the blacks. Alysanne commanded archers of the riverlands during the battle of the Kingsroad. After Lord Benjicot Blackwood broke the flank of Lord Borros Baratheon’s royalist greens, Alysanne’s archers slew the royalist knights. During the Hour of the Wolf, Alysanne agreed to marry Cregan in exchange for allowing Aegon III’s pardon of Lord Corlys Velaryon to stand.

Gotta love being Team Black 🖤

Not only do they have just cause and great anti-heroes to root for, they also have the coolest allies:

Cregan Stark

Jeyne Arryn

Kermit Tully

Benjicot Blackwood (Bloody Ben)

Roderick Dustin (Roddy the Ruin): “We have come to die for the dragon queen!”

Alysanne Blackwood (Black Aly)

I am even excited to see that bloodthirsty maniac, Dalton Greyjoy, wreak havoc on Lannisport (with how much I despise the Lannisters, I ain’t even sorry. Go Red Kraken! ✊).

Could you repeat what you said, Otto? It was something about how the Realm would not accept Rhaenyra ? To which Realm were you referring to, pray tell? Certainly not the one which holds 53 Houses loyal to a woman.

Stale oaths? Just because the Hightowers and the Lannisters have a reputation of being opportunists and oath-breakers, doesn’t mean other houses are the same.

House Blackwood

"There is Blackwood blood in every Bracken"

House Blackwood is one of the few houses in the South that still worship the Old Gods. Ancient traditions tell that it once was part of the North. House Blackwood claims their lands were taken by House Bracken, igniting an eternal feud between the two houses.
