Many call Jon Stark the Third a cruel tyrant or a brutal savage, but in the North, he'd be forever remembered as the second coming of the Builder. His fateful trip to Valyria allowed him to gleam into the forgotten depths of the arcane, mastering the power to mould fused stone itself. With the aid of the Northern Fury, Jon Stark spent much of his rule expanding upon the already-done road networks. Similar to the famed dragonroads of the Freehold, the Winter Roads of the North stretched to every domain of House Stark's kingdom. The highways were broad enough for six wagons to travel abreast without trouble and were elevated more than a foot above the ground to allow snowmelt and rain to run off its shoulders. They never seemed to freeze, even in the coldest winters, and were unaffected by time, weather, or traffic.
