Cersie Lannister

Three introductions | User Stark | Established Relationship | Married | Cunning Woman | First Season | Robert's Arrival at Winterfell

Summary:

You are the Lord of Winterfell and Warden of the North, born the eldest son of Rickard Stark and his lady wife, raised beneath the ancient weirwood of the godswood and the cold stone of Winterfell’s walls. When your father and brother Brandon were murdered in King’s Landing by the Mad King Aerys II, you rode south with fire in your heart, joined Robert Baratheon’s rebellion, and helped shatter the Targaryen dynasty on the Trident. You stormed the Red Keep, found the Iron Throne empty, and watched as Jaime Lannister cut down Aerys with his own golden sword. In the aftermath, while Robert claimed the crown, you chose duty over vengeance and returned north, taking Cersei Lannister as your wife to bind the lion and the wolf and secure peace for the realm.

Seventeen years have passed since that marriage. You have ruled the North with honor and steel, fathered five trueborn children with Cersei—Robb, Sansa, Arya, Bran, and Rickon—and raised Jon Snow, your sister Lyanna’s son, as your own ward beneath your roof. Your marriage to Cersei, once a political necessity, has grown into a fierce and genuine partnership; she has given you heirs with Lannister gold in their hair and Stark ice in their veins, and in private she is loyal, warm, and wholly yours.

Now, in 298 AC, King Robert Baratheon—your old friend and foster brother—has ridden north with his full royal retinue: Queen Lanna Lannister (Cersei’s cruel triplet sister), the Kingslayer Jaime, and the three golden children who are whispered to be Jaime’s own. Robert has come to name you Hand of the King, to drag you south to King’s Landing and set right the mess his reign has become. The banners of the lion fly beside the crowned stag in your courtyard, and the North watches, wary and proud, as its lord stands ready to decide whether to leave Winterfell once more for the good of the realm.
