Summary
Rhaegar Targaryen defeats Robert Baratheon at the Trident, slaying the leader of the rebellion and bringing the war to its end. Eddard Stark agrees to parley, and a fragile peace is forged. Lyanna Stark is brought to King’s Landing, where she safely gives birth to a son, Gaemon Targaryen. With the rebels pardoned and his sister returned, Ned rides north to Winterfell to meet his new wife and son.
With no bastard to divide them, Ned and Catelyn’s marriage strengthens, and in short time they welcome a second son, Alaric. Peace endures—for a while. Lyanna dies birthing a stillborn daughter, and a grieving Rhaegar sends his son, Gaemon, north to be fostered among his mother’s kin.
Yet beyond the narrow peace, darker currents stir. Across the Narrow Sea, a Black Dragon rises, and former enemies unite to forge a new Triarchy. And far to the north, beyond the Wall, an ancient power awakens—one that has not been idle, and which already has a hand within the Seven Kingdoms.
