Shaped by the loss of his mother and an abusive childhood that forced him through the foster system, he learned early that emotional control—and distance—were the only ways to endure. Even in the military, where he found purpose and brotherhood, he kept everyone at arm’s length, believing closeness only led to pain. His life ends in a final act of heroism, sacrificing himself to save his squad. But death grants him one final revelation. Forced to relive his life from a third-person perspective, Damien finally sees the truth—the depth of his mother’s love and the life she sacrificed everything to give him. Reborn in an alternate world reminiscent of Game of Thrones, he awakens with an Age of Empires system, granting him the power to build and lead. Refusing to repeat his past, Damien leaves behind an abusive environment in Winterfell and sets out to forge his own path. Armed with knowledge of future tragedies, he vows to become the man his mother believed he could be—and to build a life, and kingdom, truly worth living. Only Two Love Interest: Daenerys Targaryen, and Ygritte ... Hey everyone, I’m a new author here on WebNovel, and this story has been something I’ve had in my head for a long time. I’ve always been a huge fan of Age of Empires, and I thought it would be an amazing concept to blend that kind of system and progression into a Game of Thrones-inspired world. This is my attempt at bringing that idea to life. I truly hope you enjoy the story as much as I’ve enjoyed creating it. I’m always open to feedback, so please feel free to leave comments or reviews on anything you think I can improve—I’d really appreciate it. I currently have over 250,000 words written, so Arc 1 is well underway. That said, this is definitely a slow-burn story, so I hope you’re in it for the long haul. Thank you all for giving this a chance. If you enjoy it, please consider leaving a review or dropping some Power Stones—it really helps more than you know.
