    Summary

    In the third floor dormitory, there's a locked door.

    They didn't expect it to be a hidden museum to a young man who would never come home, or play his vinyl records, or sleep under a poster of David Bowie.

    Summary

    As they flew, Rhaenys watched her granddaughter. Her curls had been blown free from their pins, streaming in the wind, and she had raised a hand to idly trace the underside of a cloud. A sudden desperation seized her. If Corlys died, Baela would be one of the last two things binding her to this life.

    Rhaenys shook her head, discarding the feeling, and settled in her saddle. There were three things that she had absolute faith in: Meleys, her husband, and that it would be Baela who would inherit the Driftwood Throne, even if it killed Rhaenys to put her there.

    Rhaenys pushes for Baela's claim during the Driftmark succession crisis and finds herself sharing common ground with Alicent Hightower and her strange, half-Targaryen children. As war seizes the realm, Rhaenys, Baela, and Rhaena must navigate House Velaryon to safety, fighting alongside the people always believed to be their enemy.

    Summary

    A mother's duty is to love and protect her children.

    That is what her septas always taught her.

    When she was a little girl, before the King, before Rhaenyra, but after her mother. They talked about a woman's duty, about how her life would be like when she served her husband, how she would give him children and then her duty would be mainly to them, to nurture and protect them, to raise them to be dutiful and faithful.

    Alicent knows she has failed in this duty already.

    She doesn't love the children.

    She never has.

    She failed her duty the moment she discovered there was a life growing inside her body.

    She failed to love them.

    But it's not too late that she cannot protect them.

    Summary

    The world, Aemond learned early in life, is a tragic place.

    His father is the most feared man across the Kingdom; and the most loved.
    His father is a contradiction and an omen.

    He himself is a second son of a minor family branch, inheriting nothing, having nothing of his own, and even the castle they call home is not theirs to inhabit.
    Until that night, the night when he claims his dragon.
    Then everything changes.

    CURRENTLY ON HIATUS.
