I love this! The premise is awesome and you've clearly put a lot of thought into it.

Thanks very much! I'm enjoying this kind of world-modifying. :)

This fic reminds me why matriarchy doesn't really exist in the real world.
It's just too impractical!

Several matriarchies have existed and many do still exist as indigenous cultures. The Mosuo, Yao, Miao and Tan peoples in China, the Chiang people of Tibet, the Minangkabau of Sumatra, the Ainu of Japan, the Trobrianders of Melanesia in the Pacific, the Khasi, Garo and Nayar of India, the Bantu, Akan and Ashanti peoples in Africa, the Berbers and Tuareg of North Africa, the Arawak peoples of South America, the Cuna and Juchitanians of Central America, the Hopi and Pueblo peoples as well as the Iroquois peoples of North America ( ... )

Absolutely loving this so far. My mind has already jumped forward to the "current" timeline, working out how things would be different for Sansa, Arya et al. Can't wait to see where you're going with this.
