Alternative Paths

This story will follow the life of a sellsword by the name of Garrick in his numerous adventures within GRRM's World of Ice and Fire. There will be multiple paths and many events exclusive to each storyline, especially characters for Garrick to sleep with. The story will use predominantly book continuity (i.e., Asha Greyjoy, not Yara) though many characters have been aged up for obvious reasons. For those that have, it will be a 9 year age increase, making Arya Stark, the youngest POV character in the books, 18 years old. Our story begins in the year 298 (After Conquest). Robert Baratheon, First of His Name, has been killed by a boar and Lord Eddard Stark has been executed by the new King, Joffrey. Our protagonist, a young sellsword, has found himself in King's Landing, the city he was born in, with many options and a lot of coin to be made. While he starts off as just a soldier, who he swears his sword to could have major consequences on the future of Westeros, and it may change Garrick's life in many ways.
