What If Ned Stark Told Robert the Truth About Joffrey and Cersei?

When Eddard Stark uncovers the truth about Joffrey, Myrcella, and Tommen, he doesn’t go to Cersei in the godswood—he goes straight to King Robert in the dead of night. One choice tears open fifteen years of lies and shatters the fragile peace that followed Robert’s Rebellion. In this alternate timeline, Ned lays Jon Arryn’s final secret before the king: the seed is strong, but not in the royal children. Robert is forced to confront the horror that his heirs are not his own, that his marriage is a fraud, and that the Lannisters have wrapped his crown in a web of incest and treason. What follows is the Storm Lord’s fury turned inward on his own house. Cersei is dragged into the Small Council chamber, Jaime is summoned, and the truth of the “Baratheon” line is put on trial before the most powerful men in King’s Landing. The decisions made in these hours will decide not only who wears the crown, but whether the realm collapses into war before a single raven can reach Dragonstone or Storm’s End. Follow Ned, Robert, Cersei, Barristan, Renly, Varys, Littlefinger, and Jaime as the game of thrones is rewritten from the moment the wolf breaks his silence. 00:00 – The Hand Faces the Book 10:00 – Ned Walks to the King 20:00 – Truth in the Bedchamber 30:00 – The Seed Is Strong 40:00 – Plans Before Dawn 50:00 – Ravens and Quiet Oaths 1:00:00 – The Council Assembles 1:10:00 – The Queen Is Cornered 1:20:00 – Judgment in the Red Keep 1:30:00 – The Storm Breaks Over Lions
