I love this story it is probably one of the most unique and interesting game of thrones fan fictions I’ve ever read but I kind of wish you’d have stuck closer to the cannon timeline for things. Having the timeline excellerated 2 decades north of the wall but stay mostly on track south of it is super weird. Val is within a few years of Jon’s Snows age in cannon so having her just show up 2 decades older not mention Mance Tormund and all the other wildlings being of a similar age and position they were in 20 years from now canonically is just confusing. It would have been cool to see the dichotomy of Rhagaer’s Rhein vs Robert’s Rhein over the same 16 years following the rebellion. Having Jon foster and raise Aegon and Danny and seeing the differences between known characters when cannon rolled around would have been cool. I know it likely would have involved several time skips over that time but jumping straight from Harenhall straight to whitewalker invasion was pretty jarring. It would have just made more sense to me to have the whitewalker invasion take place around the same time and just give Jon 16 years to prepare.
