Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Benjen just shook his head and gave him a hug, which Alexander returned.

"Ah, let me introduce Anna and Elina. They were attacked by robbers, so I helped them. Now they are under me. Elina can read and write, also very smart so she\'ll be working in the administration work. Anna is a good warrior, but for now, she\'ll help the little children." Alexander introduced them.

He could feel Lyanna getting emotional seeing her little brother.

"Alright, Ser Rodrik, please show them some good rooms. Let\'s go Benjen. Talk in the Solar." He said.

The ladies started leaving with Rina looking at him, as if wanted to ask something.

Alexander quickly picked her up in his arms and asked what was the matter.

"Grandpa, I don\'t wanna go away." She said with teary eyes. The castle was very big, she must have thought he was sending her away somewhere in there.

"No my dear. I am not sending you away. You will live with me from now on, in this big castle. We will see each other every day. Your mamma is just taking you to your room to sleep." He warmly said,

She looked at him for a second and then gave a huge smile. "Okay"

He put her back down and she skipped to her mother. Benjen looked at his uncle and the little girl.

"She really likes you, Uncle," he said.

"You were just like that when you were small. You even peed while sitting on my shoulders once. In fact, you used to fight your mother to stay with me every day." Alexander said, embarrassing Benjen.

...

Brandon had it all easy. He had already secretly married Ashara so when he went to Starfall and told things to Lord Dayne. He received a punch in the face and then a hug. He was angry at his daughter for marrying without his permission but in the end, he was happy that she found someone from a Great House. Tragedy struck him and Ashara when they received the news of Brandon\'s death. Their marriage hadn\'t been announced so it would\'ve been troublesome for the pregnant Ashara.

But now, everything was good. Brandon was alive, and he also brought Lord Dayne\'s son back home. No longer a Kingsguard.

Alexander had to use some mind art to change Arthur\'s mentality. Now he was ready to take the lordship of Starfall. Ned would make sure that Robert doesn\'t name him a traitor though.

...

In the Red Keep, Ned walked to the throne room with a small baby in his arms. Dobby and Howland following behind them.

There was only Robert and Jon.

"Tell me, Ned, Lyanna is alright," Robert quickly asked.

Ned shook his head, "I couldn\'t save her. She died of fever when I reached there. Ser Arthur Dayne was protecting her the whole time."

"Goddammit," Robert shouted.

"Who\'s the boy, Ned?" Jon asked.

"He\'s my bastard," he said, trying to make an embarrassing face.

Robert howled in laughter, "The honorable Ned Stark sired a bastard. Gods, what has the world turned into"

"What\'s his name?" Jon Arryn asked.

"Jon Snow," Ned said. Robert started to laugh again.

"You named him after me? I-I don\'t know how to feel. I\'m honored, I guess," Jon Arryn said, scratching his beard.

"Robert, I am also here to inform you that my brother has given up his lordship of Winterfell to Uncle. He\'ll be ruling the north now," Ned said.

"I understand, Ned. How quickly Lord Rickard was killed. It didn\'t give much time for the North to make a smooth transition between lords. The North needs a strong leader like your uncle," Jon said.

Surprisingly, Robert nodded. "Yes, no matter what happened that day, I can\'t deny that he\'s a smart and strong man. Please tell him that I ask for forgiveness for my remarks on the children. What happened to them shouldn\'t have happened to any child. However, I still can\'t bring myself to forgive the Targaryens."

"I\'ll tell Uncle. I should be going now." Ned said and left the King\'s Landing.

His next stop was Riverrun, he needed to pick up his wife. Brandon was supposed to marry Catelyn Tully, but because of his \'death\' and also the scheming Hoster Tully. Ned and Jon Arryn were forced to marry the Hoster\'s daughters in return for their support in the rebellion. Ned and Catelyn were basically strangers to each other, still, they had produced an heir. She had given birth to Robb Stark just a few nights ago.

Catelyn didn\'t know that Brandon was alive and not only that, the Lordship of Winterfell and the position of Warden of the North had been handed to Alexander. Catelyn was still dreaming about her son becoming the Lord of Winterfell in the future.

But Hoster was furious. Cursing Brandon, Alexander and himself.

...

When Ned reached Riverrun, he was joyous to see his son, Robb. But then Catelyn asked about the baby.

"He\'s my bastard," Ned hesitantly answered.

Catelyn threw some tantrums but what could she do? In the end, they all left for Winterfell.

After half a moon, they arrived at Winterfell. Ned was completely shocked by what he was seeing. He had been gone for just a few months and Winterfell was unrecognizable. All the broken and damaged places were fixed. The ground around the whole Winterfell was now stone-paved. There was no dirty mud or smell of it. The outside of the castle now was covered with white stone. There were also many golden sculptures of wolves around Winterfell. The biggest being on the main gate.

There were so many Stark banners hanging on the walls, that even a mute would start speaking the world \'STARK\'. It didn\'t look like the dirty black castle now. It looked regal and fit for the lord of the biggest territory in the seven kingdoms.

...

Alexander knew that Ned would be coming that day so he took little Rina and others and brought them to greet him. Brandon had arrived just 2 days ago via ship. The ship he stole from the pirates was now being used as personal vassal of Starks. It made trips from White Harbor to Starks Personal dock and also the Winter Dock, which was on the other arm of the White Knife river on the other side of Winterfell. Many small ferries also take people from White Harbor to Winterfell now.

Brandon and Ashara were a lovely couple. Ashara used to be a handmaiden of Elina(Elia), so they were already very good friends. The surprise came when they introduced their daughter 2 days ago.

"Uncle, meet our daughter, Alexandra. We named her after you," Ashara happily said.

Alexander held the little baby girl in his arms delicately. His face showed a very happy smile and a tiny tear in the corner of his eyes. He looked at her closely. She had eyes of her mother but her face had some resemblance to Brandon.

"I might not be Brandon\'s father but they are all sons and daughters to me, so it makes little Alexandra my granddaughter. I bless you to always be happy, I bless you to never get sick" Alexander touched her head and used his magic. His blessings would really never let her get sick now.

For some reason, Alexandra started to giggle loudly, melting the hearts of everyone around.

Rina started to jump "I also want to see Are-xan-ra too" She couldn\'t pronounce the name properly.

Alexander laughed and looked at Ashara "You\'ll need to find another nickname for her"

...

Ned, his wife, son, and Dobby arrived in the courtyard.

Alexander gave the serious man a hug "How was the Journey, son?"

"It was nice. I see you\'ve changed the castle a lot." Ned said.

"This is just the beginning," Alexander said, also adding another thing to his list of things to do. \'Change Ned Stark\'s attitude\'.

Ned then introduced his wife. "This is my wife, Catelyn Stark, and my son, Robb Stark. Catelyn, this is my uncle, Alexander Stark, Lord of Winterfell and the Warden of the North."

Ned\'s words surprised the redhead.

"Welcome to the family, Catelyn Stark. This is Brandon Stark and his wife Ashara Dayne with their lovely daughter, Alexandra." He introduced them.

For some reason, every time someone said Alexandra\'s name, she would giggle.

Ned looked happily at his brother, "You named her after uncle"

"I owe my life to Uncle," Brandon seriously said.

"Enough guys, let\'s celebrate now. Where the hell is Benjen? I told him to be here," Alexander yelled.

"Here, I-I overslept," Benjen said.

"With whome?" Brandon teased him.

"Haha... All the Starks are here, with 3 extra. Let\'s celebrate, everyone" He loudly said and led to the dining hall.

His words pierced Catelyn the wrong way. She assumed that Alexander was talking about Jon Snow. She was also confused, why Alexander was the lord. In their journey, Ned had told her about Brandon and she had grudgingly accepted that. She had already given her Maidenhead to Ned and there was no going back now.
