    There was one fic like that, IIRC. I can't remember the name of it, but it was essentially Ned bringing her from Dorne and making her see all the havoc that her eloping with Rhaegar caused. I think it was a somewhat long fic with regular updates.

    In fact, I think it was even brought up in this very thread, so you can probably go looking for it if you don't spending an hour or so.

    Like Hash said, too busy IRL.

    You mean building an army to kill Turks. Need them Slav Hordes.

    He's Serbian. If he isn't hating Turks, it's only because he's 110% focused on Albanians.

    Do you mean sequel? Because I'm confused as to what a prequel could be about when the first story starts with the protagonist waking up in Westeros.

    If there is though, feel free to link it. I didn't see it in the author's posts but I'll read anything related to this story.

    Hash linked the sequel to that one. No idea if you know it.

    Any Ned centric stories, where Ned follows his great great great great grandfather Cregan Stark example ? or just realizing that king landing is nothing like the North and become badass

    Yeah, I didn't know it was a sequel and was just going on about how intelligent it was that we were seeing the SI after he was already years in because I'd never seen that before and there were big backstory issues for him, and Odran just goes "You dumb fuck, that's a sequel."

    Here is a new story, that shows promise: Broken Baratheon Bones: Exile on The Wall

    The premise is that Joffery kills Arya during their scuffle and Robert turns him over to Ned who decides that the best punishment is The Wall. It spins off from there. Bolton beats Ned back to Winterfell and is looking to start some shit. Stanis returns to capital and tips his hand to Carsei.

    The setup promises this to be much more than another fix it fic. The author has stated that he will focus on Stannis and Ned, which to me means he won't overextend trying to juggle too many pow's. And no SI's in sight.

    The writing is decent, but he could use a beta for the spelling.

    Overall this could be a good story in the future.

    Same feeling here. Starting with the Sequel was refreshing. Reading the first story made me stop reading after 3 chapters. It just didn't seem like anything special.

    Yeah, interesting premise but, honestly, the writing is crap. Needs a decent look over for spelling and structure.

    I read the first chapter of the second story, and immediately went and read the first story. I wish I'd just started with the first story. Jenny's you-know-what might've had more impact.

    She does have, but as it's ASoIaF fic you're prepared to not get too attached to any character, especially an OC. And by reading only the second one, you miss the best part, introducing Shakespeare to Westeros.

    Now I would like to read a fic where SI character has a goal to not so much bring technological innovation, but make the Seven Kingdoms closer culturally to what he enjoyed in his previous existence.

    Not me, bro. I get attached real easy. It's the weed, I tell ya. Makes it too easy to empathize.

    It's not new, it was from AH.com at least a year ago. It never really got going as I remember, maybe the author will continue it.
