i think you met me at a strange time and you anchored me

Who; Lyanna or MirrorVerse Lyanna ([personal profile] stormmaiden) + YOU
What; MirrorVerse shenanigans! Lyanna gets lost in the world behind the Mirror, worries about her son, and will later help in the search for Halcyn once she knows that's going on. Meanwhile, her MirrorVerse counterpart will be hanging out in Aterat, and while she's not evil or anything, she's different from the Lyanna who resides there. For one, she doesn't have a son named Jon.
Where; All over the MirrorVerse and Aterat.
When; The duration of the event and all through the end of August.
Warnings; Aside from the usual topics of war and violence when dealing with Game of Thrones characters, monsters and mayhem in the MirrorVerse? There's an element of horror in the first prompt, and Lyanna's rather underdressed for a medieval woman since she just got yanked out of bed. If any more come up, will add them to the comment subject lines!


01 ▷ MIRRORVERSE
Lyanna thinks she's dreaming. She doesn't recognize the place she finds herself standing in, though there's a nagging familiarity at the back of her mind as she stares at the massive wall stretched out in front of her and the roiling mist that seems to be climbing from behind it. It's cold, too, closer to the cold of her homeland than the cool evenings of Aterat, and she brings her arms around herself as she shivers. She needs a cloak, not to be wandering around in a nightdress, but she can't seem to will herself to walk away. Where has she seen this before?

"The Wall was built by Brandon the Builder to defend the realms of the First Men," Old Nan's voice comes unbidden in her head, "and the men of the Night's Watch have defended the Wall for eight thousand years since the end of the Long Night."

Then she hears Jon's, and his words from not too long ago: "Westeros is changing. Dragons are back." And as if on cue a loud cry cuts through the heavy gloom of the night, and she looks up to see a large shadow slowly pass overhead. She blinks slowly, for a moment too terrified to move. Are those... wings?

She takes a step back, then several more, before turning on her heel and making a run back toward the city. Only there's no city; instead she finds herself in a labyrinth, dark and filled with shadows. She slows as she descends a narrow, winding spiral stone staircase, and when she emerges in a floor with a long line of granite pillars and a vaulted ceiling, her steps falter.

In front of her are two large stone statues with the likenesses of her father, Rickard, and one of her older brothers, Brandon. Large stone direwolves curl at their feet, and iron longswords lie across their laps to keep vengeful spirits within the crypt

The cold returns, and suddenly Lyanna can't breathe.

The statues are missing their swords.

02 ▷ ATERAT


Lady Lyanna seems to have been drawn to the same sort of place as that of the woman she's swapped worlds with, for while Lyanna wanders through a perverted image of Winterfell's crypts in the realm beyond the looking glass, she's taken to the cemetery, making her way through the maze of mausoleums as though she has loved ones she intends to visit.

She doesn't stay long. Either it's because she's remarkably out of place in her fine blue gown, or she feels like she's being watched. She makes her way to the Fountain Square after her walk, taking her time to observe the bustle of the city from her spot on the gazebo.

It's nice to have some peace and quiet.

03 ▷ WILDCARD
[ feel free to dm or hmu on [plurk.com profile] notanybunny to plot! for the canon familiar, mirrorverse lyanna had nothing to do with rhaegar and ended up marrying robert, becoming lady of storm's end. she's more like sansa, a stark with a southron lady's demeanor, though with considerably less trauma involved in her transformation. she just had to learn how to politic and run things since her husband's no good. ]

"The songs are...not flattering." Which was part of the reason he'd had so much difficulty adjusting to the truth of his parentage. Even knowing how it had really happened, not the version from the legends and songs, had still left him having to reckon with the legacy of being his parents' son. And no matter the truth of the situation, there's still the events involving Elia Martel. "I knew that about the music, at least. It's well known how the two of you met." It's just the end of the story that had changed, although it had been necessary to maintain that change.

"There was a summons, and a mirror. How that mirror leads to here I cannot say."
