    Summary

    “And so it was that, in the summer of 109 AC, Queen Aemma took once again to her childbed, remaining there for near two days for what would be a difficult and taxing labour. In the early hours of the morning, King Viserys and his lady wife welcomed a living babe—but not the babe they expected. The arrival of a second daughter took both by surprise, for they had come to believe the child in the Queen’s belly had been their longed-for son. It was nonetheless announced that the Queen had been delivered of a healthy girl, and a great relief was struck up across the Realm, the bells of King’s Landing being rung from dawn to dusk and the people gathering on the streets in praise of their new Princess.”

    - ‘Fire and Blood: Being a History of the Targaryen Kings of Westeros’ by Archmaester Gyldayn

    Summary

    Aemond’s life was incredibly dim after the war, a bottomless carven he’d sunk himself into with his own actions, until one by one, little flames came into his life.

    Summary

    Alenya Tyrell was raised among dragons, closer to the royal family than to her own blood. The Red Keep was her home, Alicent her guide, and the Targaryen children her constant companions—none more so than Aemond, whose presence shaped her childhood as deeply as fire shapes steel.

    Everything shattered the night Aemond lost his eye.

    She was there when blood was spilled. Seeing Aemond broken and bleeding, Alenya attacked Lucerys Velaryon in a moment of blind fury, nearly killing him. Aemond lost an eye, Alenya lost something else... Sent away from King’s Landing, she spent years haunted by rage, and a love she was never allowed to name. When she is finally permitted to return, the court she once knew is sharpened by suspicion, and the children she left behind are no longer children at all.

    Aemond has grown into a man forged by loss and ambition, his feelings for Alenya deeper, darker, and far more dangerous than before. What once was innocent devotion now burns with longing and restraint. But King’s Landing is not only a place of reunions. The Blacks are there, to, and the grudges born in childhood have not faded with time.

    And this time, there will be no exile from what comes next.
