"Garlan, Garlan Garlan." Mace mumbled to himself quitely, in the privacy of his chambers. "Garlan and Loras. Garlan and now Loras." "Mace! what are you doing here in the dark, mumbeling to yourself?" said his wife, Alerie Hightower. Alerie was a tall, goodlooking women with sliver hair and pale blue eyes. She was the daughter of Lord Leyton Hightower, otherwise known for "the old man of Oldtown"

Mace raised his eyes, and responded to Alerie by saying in a bitter sound: "Garlan is dead, my love. Loras will also die, soon enough. The Baratheon supporters tricked him into his grave, seduced him to get near to Casterly Rock so they could trap him there, blocking the mountain pass to stop any Tyrell men from assisting him. The mercenerie ironborn have been paid by Edmure Tully to bring their forces to Casterly Rock and besiege Loras in the fortification he raised up. They have 3 times as many men as Loras and Randyll, there is no way he can defeat them. Lord Tywin Lannister is probably laughing in his grave right now" Mace Tyrell paused for a moment and said: " half the Realm he sent against us, the Usurper. The Riverlands, the Westerlands and the Iron Isles, and the brave Reachermen had to fight them all. Even after that, we destroyed the Lannisters in crushing defeats, the war was ours!" Mace Tyrell bellowed. "but no, the war had to turn against us. Now Loras will die"

Alerie Hightower responded to Mace Tyrell by saying in a heart broken voice: "I know, a raven has come to me as well this morning. What are you going to do now then?" Mace responded by saying: " I have already sent a raven to Edmure Tully, Stafford Lannister and Balon Greyjoy" "what was written in that message, Mace?" Alerie said. " I told them that if they free Loras and Randyll, and let him go peacefully, all Westerland settlement are to be abandoned and the 2 Tyrell armies that have been marching through the Westerlands will be sent back to their homeland" Mace paused for a moment, and then continued speaking: " Fossoways stack will be sent back south from his journey in the Riverlands as well" -a small pause " and we will agree not to launch any attacks against the Westerlands or the Riverlands for a full year, while this does not effect them. They can start assaulting the Reach if they wish, although that every foolish attempt like that will be easily thrown away by the power of the Reach" ( full year means 10 turns in WTW time ) " I have also told them that we are open to nagotiation, and that we would do much to keep Loras alive "

Alerie seemed concerned, and said: " what about Viserys? he will not be happy about this, he will believe that the Reach has given up in his cause and turned over to the Usurper " "Ahhh, I don't care about Viserys. We have done so much for him already, killing the murderer of his father and the once tretcherous hand of the king, Lord Tywin Lannister" said Mace Tyrell " But when it comes to my sons, I will not let them die just to place some king on his throne "

Alerie then kissed Mace Tyrell and left, leaving Mace Tyrell once again alone with his thoughts. When the room was empty and no-one was there besides him, Mace Tyrell returned to his mumbeling. " Garlan, Garlan. Garlan and now Loras, Garlan and now Loras...."

Now, Tully Lannister and Greyjoy, please respond to my offer, and tell me if you agree to free my precious Loras. Take in mind that I am open to nagotiation, and that I would do much so you would free him.

Oh, and don't forget to +rep! remember that this is the recreation of my awesome RP that was deleted when the server was down so don't be too harsh on me. The original RP was MUCH better

With the fall of Viserys Targaryen, we realized that having a Targaryen on the throne is a lost cause. So as an obviousity, House Baratheon is the next house to the throne, being that the first Baratheon was a bastard of Aegon the conqueror.

But the question still stands: which Baratheon will we support - the drunken dog that sent half the Realm against us, and didn't do anything to stop the death of Garlan, Loras and Randyll, and has not supported our claim of the Westerlands and has even robbed us of the title Warden of the South and Lord Paramount of the Reach.

Or will we support Stannis, the next in line for the throne, a man who has agreed to spare Viserys and give him the title Lord Paramount of the Stormlands and has even given him the Citadel of Storm's End, a man who ecknowlages us as Lords Paramount of the Westerlands and the Reach, a man who recognizes our vessals House Frey as Lords Paramount of the Riverlands, a man, who most importantly, has agreed to declare Houses Greyjoy, Tully and Lannister as traitors to the Realm and breakers of the king's peace.

For that, we hereby declare Stannis Baratheon as the Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar and the First men. Anyone who denys that title from him is considered our enemie from now on.

The marriege alliance between House Targaryen and House Tyrell still stands, anyhow. Their children shall be the lords of the Citadel of Storm's End. We are saddened for not having Mace Tyrell's grandchilren as rulers of the Seven Kingdoms, but we shall have to deal with ruling the two most powerful kingdoms in the realm

House Arryn finds it incredibly troubling that Stannis Baratheon executed this backstabbing manoeuvre without first revealing to Lord Robert Arryn the circumstances of his father's death. If the vale was aware that Jon Arryn had been murdered by the Lannisters, they might have sided with Stannis in the coming conflict.

However, as Stannis made no such overture, Lord Royce deems that this is merely a ploy for Stannis to exploit the current circumstances for his own benefit.

The blood of the Vale has been spilt, and former bonds of fellowship cast aside.

House Arryn will wage total war against Stannis Baratheon to avenge our dead.

Alone, we have four times your number and many times your wealth, traitor. House Arryn will stand with Robert Baratheon until the bitter end. With the royal armies factored in, we outnumber you eight to one.

House Arryn calls upon Houses Martell, Greyjoy, Lannister, and Tully to support the true King, Robert Baratheon.

House Arryn also calls upon the Houses Stark and Bolton to declare their loyalty towards King Robert.

Lord Yohn Royce.
Lord Protector of the Realm and acting Warden of the East

The Riverlands can offer no comment or public decree on the matters of Stannis Baratheon's claim of kingship. We are occupied on other matters, but it does not please Lord Edmure and the Blackfish to know that another wedge has been planted in the realm.

Another swing with his hammer and again a Dotharki warrior was reduced to gore and flying bones. "WITH ME BROTHERS!" Robert shouted as he chased the remaining Dothraki into the courtyard of Bronzegate. His horse had died when he and his men had charged through the broken gate, but this had stopped him from staying on the front lines, and now he was leading his men on foot. Robert was the kind of commander who always led in the thick of the battle and yet still had the larger overview. He could, as some called it, feel the pulse of the battle as it raged around it. It is true that he was not the tactical genius Ned is or Jon and Tywin were, but his sense of the battle was unmatched.
He and his men crashed into the failing Dothraki line, Dotharki were great horsemen, but on the ground, in the thick melee, his men and their armor were far superior.
Robert grabbed his hammer in two hands and delivered a huge overhead blow on a warrior before him. The Dotharki was completely crushed and blood and bones were flying everywhere. Robert immediately dazed through the maze of blood and struck two more Dothrakis with one mighty swing.
A brief pause followed as his guards rushed passed him and Robert called to the nearest captain "They nearly break! Cut off their retreat and slaughter them to the last man!"
The Dothraki began breaking and suddenly they broke into a run, only to be met by Goldcloaks under command of Beric Donadarion. It was a slaughterhouse, no quarter was given.

Never thought that the Goldcloaks would make fine soldiers Robert thought as he wade through the dead that littered the ground.
"Beric! You have done fine work with these Gold cloaks! They have proven themselves on the field of battle today." He said to the commanding knight in a black surcoat with a purple lightning bolt.
"They are fine men, Your Grace, I have done little to make them better." Beric said with awe in his eyes as he watched his king approach.
"Nonsense!" Robert laughed. "They were worth nothing before you trained them, but now look at them, besting a Dothraki horde!"
"They were led by a inspiring and great man Your Grace, they fought for their King, for House Baratheon, against the evil usurpers and Dothraki barbarians. Everyone of these men would die for you after today" Beric said as he bowed. His men all bowed with him.
"Enough of that Beric", Robert said as he gestured him up.

Robert turned to his men.

MEN OF WESTEROS!
We have won a great victory today and we have killed countless Dothraki barbarians and evil usurpers.
As we speak Sandor Clegane conquers Fellwood and kills the Targ Princess and currently forces of House Arryn and my faithful brother Stannis are descending on Tarth and Storm's End.
The Targaryens are almost dead! But the war is far from over, to the South the Martells are coming to aid the usurpers and House Tyrell is still resisting your King!
We will crush these houses as we crushed their King! This time their betrayal will not go unpunished! After this is over there will be new lords of Dorne and the Reach! Now we march on Storm's End, our ancestral home! We will crush the Targaryens there once more!

A few days later the large forces of Robert Baratheon and Yohn Royce were camped before the walls of Storm's End.

"You do not intend to storm the walls do you Your Grace?" Yohn said to Robert.
"Oh I intend to storm the castle, Storm's End has never fallen in a direct assault, but then again it has never been besieged by one who knows it as well as I do" Robert said as he scanned the walls of the castle of his family. Now Targaryen banners were flying on the ancient citadel, but not for much longer Robert thought.

"Your Grace!" Beric said as he came rushing in the tent.
"Stannis, your brother he..." Beric began
"What is it? Did he lose yet another battle?" Robert said mockingly, Stannis had lost his reputation as a so called great commander after his easy defeat at the hands of Jorah Mormont, a mere knight from the North who was surprisingly leading the only remaining Targaryen army.
"No, he has declared himself KING!" Beric said.
Everybody in the tent looked at the Goldcloak commander flabbergasted.
"He did what?" Yohn said.
"King" Beric said as he waved a letter.
Robert was silent and stared into nothing.
Yohn grabbed the letter and began reading.
"It is true, he, he declared himself king. And your children spawned of incest! This cannot be true, this is so unlike Stannis. It must be that evil red witch! She must have converted him! Planted this treachery in his head!" Yohn cried out.
Robert was still silent.
"It is an outrage!" Harwood Fell shouted. "To rebel against his own brother, he wants to become a king and kin slayer!"

"Beric, Robert said softly, [COLOR="black"]have you done the necessary?"[/COLOR]

"Yes, upon hearing the news all of Stannis men and men who sympathies with him have been taken prisoner."

"Let them all declare their loyalty to me, execute those who refuse." Robert said softly.

"Also, send orders to my Kingsguard who are still in Kingslanding, my wife is to be interrogated about these claims."

"Your Grace" Beric said as he saluted and carried out his orders.

"PREPARE THE MEN FOR AN ASSAULT!" Robert shouted to the captains waiting outside. "We'll storm Storm's End immediately."

"First the Targaryens, after that we march north and crush my brother."
