Princess of Death

Alternate Universe to Nightingale (Can be read as Stand Alone) Death drew them together, and it would never be able to pull them apart. Starks are made of iron, strong and enduring; Salanis are like the breeze, soft and gentle. The result of both will be a girl with the strength of the warriors, the kindness of the guardians and a will that not even death shall be able to quell. Ever. Or the one where Nightingale becomes a Stark and the whole universe ripples from that point.

Ok, to start. I don't own anything, yadda, yadda... you know the speech by now. For those interested in dream-cast: Silbhé Salani/Arianna Grayson/Nightingale is played by Emily Browning; Kathryn Salani/Eileen Grayson by Kristin Scott Thomas. (Others to be added as they appear). This is perhaps the fic where I've deviated the most from canon to date, not only in the obvious ways, the ways you'll notice because they differ from how things went in the MCU; but also the less obvious ways, the ones only those who've been following my Nightingale series will notice. I hope I've been able to explain properly the reason behind each change in this fic, but if you've any doubts don't hesitate to ask me. This fic consists of three parts, there will be some considerable jumps in time, hope you won't mind too much. Chapters will be coming every other week. Also, this is the second time I'll address the matter of the Civil War, though I'll let you discover how exactly when the time comes. (I'm also contemplating addressing it, at least to a point, in the main timeline; something I'd originally said I wouldn't do... but I'm still undecided on that point). Anyway, hope you'll enjoy this fic, here we go!
