After suffering an unfortunate plot twist, Lord Eddard Stark of Winterfell finds himself in a place worlds away from Westeros; to be more specific, he's wound up in Ponyville, Equestria. Unwillingly caught up in the politics of Equestria, Ned and the Mane 6 must try to unravel a conspiracy against Celestia and Luna. Contains major spoilers for the novel A Game of Thrones, or the first season of the HBO adaptation of the book series.

Don't worry, following chapters will have more pony. Any constructive criticism and advice would be appreciated. Hope you enjoy my story as it progresses.
spoiler:
and then he dieeees

I put a spoiler warning in the author's note for a reason...
hmm looking good want more
1169447
Thank you. I'm really hoping this story goes well, it's my first attempt at writing a fanfic.
Because he thought it was funny? Well crap Discord is back
I like this.
I always thought Ed Stark got a raw deal. On a related note any new books in that series?
poor ed one of my favs bullshit he got cut , personally I would have said fuck it and told the truth, also serouisly joffery getting attacked by a rabid honey badger of a punishment for him
1172468
If he'd told the truth, his daughter Sansa would have likely been killed, and he'd have died as well. Plus there would be a guarantee of war. Keep in mind he had every reason to believe he'd be sent to the wall if he lied, and it would have prevented what turned into the War of Five Kings. It's just that Joffrey went off-script in a drastic way at a crucial moment, and by doing what did screwed up the possibility of the peace built on a lie.
TL;DR - Everyone should hate Joffrey, and it's all his fault.
yeah I know but I believe in my headcanon that the resulting riot would allow eddard and sansa to escape
Whoa.
This is awesome. Reading through I did not catch a single grammatical error. And Eddard's monologue is brilliantly written. Paying attention to the exposition is always crucial in crossover work, and making it feel appropriate to both worlds is something that seems pretty much impossible between Ice and Fire and FiM. But somehow you pulled it off. This is some great work, and I can't wait to see what you have planned for later chapters.
1172731
Yeah, the basic idea for me doing a crossover of these two came about when I realized, much to my surprise, that no-one had done it yet.
1172760
Planned? Who plans? I mean besides Light Yagami.
discord much?
SPOILER!: He's going to Equestria! The method for said dimensional shift is somewhat cliche, but well written, and cliches happen for a reason. Good job, Sharky.
This is bold; it should not be. Also, remove the comma.
And one more thing: YOINK!
1181716
Ah, thanks for pointing that bolding error out. Also, I've decided each chapter will have a title, so I edited a title into Chapter 1 as well.
1181761 Wait, so I can keep the hat? Cool!
I'd like to thank my editor/proofreader, The Sweezlenub. This chapter would have had so many typos if not for him.
Anyway, enjoy.
looking good
new chapter
Sometimes HiE stories feels more than a little overused. GoT is an awesome show though....
Despite the cliche, the story seems pretty polished. My only complaint is that Twilight's feelings seem a bit "detached" from the reader at the end when she was examining Eddard.
1190271
Agreed that HiE is an overused concept. However, was the only way to make a MLP:FiM and Game of Thrones crossoever work that I could think of. And I'm still amazed that as far as I can tell, this is the only crossover fic between these two exceptionally large fandoms.
Love the books. I'm interested as to where you'll take this.
This is going to be an epic story
I think you dropped something.
Hmm... I can't help but wonder what Tyrian would do, despite the fact that the only things I know about the series as a whole is that my favorite character will die (horribly), and Tyrian is a B.A.M.F.
"But that was clearly impossible"
"clearly impossible"
"impossible"
Silly Twilight, you'd think she'd have learned by now
1193074
it's spelled Tyrion. Also, thanks for pointing out those typos.
New chapter up! Sad Ned is sad. Also, confused.
*starts epic slow clap
Is it odd that I read this entire chapter in ned Starks voice
Happy this updated.
I am confused as to how Ned instantly knew what Spike was, especially since he usually sleeps under some kind of blanket; the most he should have been able to tell is that there was a large-ish, purple lizard in what appeared to be a dog bed.
You forgot to put a period at the end of the first "would be" sentence.
Also, wouldn't Ned think of the events that just happened as a dream? At least until he opened his eyes? It is rather unbelievable after all.
Of all the absurd crossovers you could have...
No, it actualy is awesome. But...
did Edd ever learn about his home castle being razed? I thought it happened well after he died...
1207796
You are correct, it happened near the end of the 2nd book, which is why he's not listing in the problems caused by his failure in preventing the war.
But he does think his sons are dead.
1210350
No, he doesn't.
Brandon and Rickon are his sons. Named after his father and brother I believe.
*Sage nod*
Thus far, I'm enjoying it. Really quite interesting and I can't wait to see what happens when Twilight realizes that an intelligent alien has escaped her.
And when Pinkie meets Ned...*winces* that might not end well.
I can't wait for more!
Cheers
GM
1211902
Oh, I see the confusion, yeah. His father Rickard and brother Brandon were executed on the Mad King's orders. Not to confused with his son Brandon and his son Rickon, who were believed dead after the razing of Winterfell.
Also, he hasn't 'escaped' very far, Ned is busy wallowing in depression on a nearby park bench.
1212053 *Nods* Very true.
Ned Stark: Gives Amazing Head.
*Cackles*
Cheers
GM
New chapter up, moar exposition.
Can't wait for Neds meeting with royalty
Remember that time when Fluttershy wound up as a star model for Photo Finish? You can’t just quit being one of the ponies that saved Equestria from Discord. That sort of fame sticks, and I don’t want them being dragged into politics any more than I can help it. They deserve better than that.”
Seems a bit out of character for Celestia to speak of the events as if she was there. She may get letters from Twilight, but who is to say that letter had anything to do about Fluttershy being a model. The reports are about friendship, and the moral of that one was something on the topic of self-discovery. (On just being yourself)
I tried to write a comment yesterday but a system derp ate it... anyway:
1 So, that ceremony after Discord's defeat didn't happen in this reality?
2 I wonder how Ned will react to his first talking cow. He is still wearing a lot of leather, isn't he?
1214322
1 - I'd forgotten about that. I just figured since they don't seem to be treated celebrities most of the time, it's unlikely most ponies know about them being the elements. It's a contradiction of sorts in the show, so I'm just going with the idea that they're not known to be the bearers of the Elements except to very few.
2 - Yes, he is still wearing a lot of leather. And yes, that will come up later. Presumably when he meets Rarity.
1214036
A valid point. But I tend to think Celestia would have noticed if one of the bearers of the Elements suddenly wound up a celebrity for a different reason. In that episode, it was made very clear that Fluttershy had gotten very famous.
1214413 Still doesn't change the fact she speaks of it as if she was actually there. (as well as Luna) It's more of an issue of character POV.
I'm glad its Ned and not Stannis. It would take a veritable army of Pinkies to get that sour Lisa to even crack a smile.
1214424
I'm afraid I don't get that impression when I re-read it. Do you think the rest of the chapter was OK? I'm somewhat concerned this chapter wasn't as good as the last three, due to the fact that I had a lot of exposition to do, and I don't think I'm as good with Luna as a character (yet) as I am with Ned or Twilight.
1214430
If there was an army of Pinkies, Stannis Baratheon would probably declare war on it.
1214473 that much randomness would surely herald the pink apocalypse.
