The State of the Realm

The State of the Realm as of 407 AC:
In the land of Westeros, the rules of power are simple: you win, or you die. There is no middle ground.

The year is 407 AC, over a century since Aegon VI and Daenerys Stormborn completed the Second War of Conquest. King Aenar I Targaryen has ruled from the Iron Throne for over sixty years, but his advanced age and declining health become more apparent by the day. The Old King has outlived all of his children, as well as his designated heir, his grandson Prince Aemon Targaryen, and now the Red Comet returned to the skies above Westeros for the first time since the War of the Five Kings - a harbinger of fire and blood to follow.

The Crown has been steadfast in their portrayal of the comet as an auspicious portent - a sign of favor from the gods. The king has declared that a Grand Tournament is to be held at Harrenhal, where knights will go head to head in the joust, melee participants will try their mettle against combatants from far and wide, archers will attempt to make their own mark upon the contests, and Targaryen dragons will take to the sky to reenact the Battle above the God's Eye. Meanwhile, tensions build throughout the realm as the rest of the King Aenar’s grandchildren and great-grandchildren position themselves to stake their claim upon his throne.

When the noble Houses of Westeros all gather together in one place, what alliances will be struck and what conflicts will erupt as an almost-inevitable succession crisis draws near?
