Time travel AU
1920. Lady Daenerys is an aristocrat married by convenience. She was a nurse during the WWI while her husband was at the front. Since the war ended, she is finding difficult to get back to her previous boring life of gossips and parties.
During the summer, she and her husband are invited to the North by old Lady Tallhart, a friend of the family, to expend a few weeks in Torrhen's Square. During an excursion to the Wolfwood, Dany wanders around until she finds an ancient weirdwood, fascinated she touches the tree and immediately she gets dizzy and loose conscience. When she comes back to her senses, she tries to go back to her party, but somehow the woods seems different, wilder and denser. She finally comes across some men on horseback and to her surprise, their clothes look like from middle ages.
Somewhen during the Middle Age. Jon Targaryen is the cousin of Robb Stark and until Robb has a son, his presumptive heir since Robb only has sisters. Robb’s mother hates and fears Jon because she believes he wants her son’s seat. But Jon’s interest in the North is solely to gain their support to his claim for the Throne and take his revenge on the Lannisters for butchering his family and forced him into hiding and concealment.
Jon is hunting with Robb and a few men at the Wolfwood for Robb upcoming nuptial’s feast when they come across a strange woman in foreign clothes. She tells them she is a host of Lady Tallhart, but they all know the Lady and her husband are presently guests in Winterfell. Thinking the woman may be a spy for the Lannisters, they forcefully take her back to Winterfell.

Jon Snow is a mad man, it is said.
From mouth to mouth, they say he lives in silence a top of the Night’s Watch, walks along others wearing black that call him Lord Commander and watch him go alone in the night when the cold is more cruel until morrow comes and he is back in his chambers, alone and ever silent.
He never leaves the castle, barely leaves his chambers. He only resurges at night to meet the White Lady that haunts the place, the men say when they go down to town.
That they hear the chain he wears on his wrist and around his hand, when he walks alone, murmuring back to the White Lady at his side.
She whispers for him to come to her when he has paid for what he’s done, she awaits with child. They await his homecoming.
The mad man refuses her sight, her voice, her touch, yet always follows her direction with his eyes to the ground. And he speaks of her and sometimes even dares talk to her, like only a mad man can believe its ghosts are real.
He sees her at down, too. In the snow and beyond the wall. She’s always there, the men say to have seen her too. The White Lady with her almost full belly, her red cheeks, pink lips, white hair.
She’s always there.
"I killed the woman I love”, he answers when Lords come and ask why he has exiled himself to the North, smelling of smoke and holding himself miserable, all in black, chain in his hand.
“I killed the woman I love,” he talks of her like if she was still breathing, his White Lady that never leaves, that mourns at night his lost mind.
He is a mad man now, starving himself from the rest of the world, refusing to see the King and the Queen in the North that call him a brother, even if people believes him the last true Stark standing, the hero of Westeros.
Sometimes, there’s a gilmmer of purple in his eyes when he looks at those who call him that. He refuses the name, the people, the story. Refuses the fire in the coldest nights as he refuses guards and more men when going beyond the wall.
“He is mad”, the men say.
“He wants to die.”, and he tries and tries, and tries, yet always comes back.
Jon Snow is a mad man that speaks alone at night, holds around his right hand a chain with a three headed dragon until it numbs it, that wants to die, yet refuses to at the end.
“I killed the woman I love,” he answers when asked why, in spite of the subtle attempts and his disenchantment of the world, he doesn’t die. “I killed my only child.”
One day, the men say, he will purge his sins and the White Lady will take him back.
At night, the last mad Targaryen prays for it.
