it's a 150k+ masterpiece of an AU called Of Ribbons and Barbarians by SainTalia!! it's unfinished but i still highly recommend it!

it's a massive canon divergence where the targs never came to westeros and the ensuing 300 years of history, houses, civil wars, and marriages that we know from the original series are completely different. sansa was raised as a tully, jon was lyanna's son but raised as a bastard by barbrey dustin and has been recently legitimized as a stark and crowned king.

one thing I love that the author has done is take george's "old gods" and cranked the dial up 2000x. one qualm i have about the OG series is how the north and south purport such religious and cultural differences but we don't see very much of that. this story really gives you northern spirituality and rituals that have weight and consequence, that raise the stakes for a septa educated sansa who would find them harrowing to navigate.
