    Summary

    Current Arc: Declaration of War.

    Orwyle read the words aloud, his voice steady despite the grimness of the message: "Tell Aegon the Usurper that I shall have my throne, or I will have his head. I will not bend the knee to a usurper, and if war is what you wish, war you shall get. Know that at the end of it, every Green head will be mounted on spikes for all to see what happens to traitors.”

    Praying to the gods, old and new, to release him from his suffering, Aegon is sent back to the morning of his coronation. He is still weak, he still does not know how to rule. But he has one weapon: information. And with information, comes power. He now knows how to learn.

    Being burned and usurped by his brother has left him with no love or patience to spare, for anyone. Everyone he thought he could trust betrayed him, and so he will pay their cruelty twice in turn.

    OR

    Copium to do Aegon justice after the season 2 finale. Merciless Aegon who slowly grows into a powerhouse of a King, and Helaena into a proper queen. Team Black is treated with due respect. Don't think the war will be easy for Aegon at all just because he was sent back in time (after S2E6).

    Summary

    Helaena might have foreseen her son's death, but she had not foreseen how much the absence of Jaehaerys would shake her world. With the return of her husband, half-dead, and her only remaining child in harm's way, Helaena is determined to change the future -- she might have embroidered their fates in cloth, but cloth is not stone, and Helaena would burn it all if she had to to protect her family.

    So when she catches a glimpse of a victory that can turn the tides of the war wholly to her side, Helaena grasps it with both hands and refuses to let it pass her.

    Summary

    Aegon froze in place as he listened to his sister-wife. Her soft, delicate face showed the wrath of an angel. A vengeful yet pure creature, one of the first ever made by the Gods.

    A twisted feeling of shock, awe, and pride beat inside of Aegon. The sorrow was too heavy to bear: what kind of pain and suffering must this woman be experiencing for her to act this way?

    or,
    the one where a mother’s grief set the realm on fire and changed the course of war.
