Summary
Loving a man behind the white cloak was like loving the moon beautiful, unreachable, and always the wrong choice. Ser Barristan Selmy, sworn knight and paragon of duty, becomes her shield long before either dares to name the feelings that binding them. In whispered moments and stolen glances, hearts ache against the weight of vows, as desire and honor clash. Each touch, each word, is both a comfort and a temptation, and every choice carries the quiet sorrow of what can never fully be. In a world where duty is iron and love is forbidden, Laenira must navigate the fragile space between longing and restraint

Summary
Prince Daeron second son of Aerys II loathes his moniker and the shame it fills in his chest. The worst day of his life and they believe they honor him with it. Rhaegar even composed a song sung in keeps and halls. A knighthood is all he sought, not a broken city. A chance for honor, not butchery. What he desired didn’t matter. He was Prince Daeron the Dragon of Duskendale.

Summary
Эрик Киллмонгер отлично знал, кто он такой и ради чего он живет. Если Баст думала, что, переместив его сюда, она научит его смирению или что это послужит ему наказанием, то она не знала его настолько хорошо, насколько ей казалось. Может, у Эрика теперь было тело поработителя, но его разум принадлежал только ему самому, и он принимал решения своим сердцем, как это было всегда. Он взял меч и от меча и погиб — он не видел причин менять суть своей личной этики во второй раз.

Written for the Oldtown Discord Prompt Event #9: Aerys dies at Duskendale. (400 words max)
"When she learned her brother-jailor-husband perished in the Battle of the Dun Fort, her first thought was: Freedom. It was not to be. She was a widow, but still a princess, and her King had need of her."
(Rhaella was a widow. Rickard was a widow. Can I make it anymore obvious?)

Summary
Erik knows very well who he is and what he is for. If Bast thought placing him here would humble or punish him, They do not know him as well as They think. Erik may wear the body of a slaver, but his mind and his choices are his, as they always have been.
He lived by the sword and died by it; he sees no reason to change the bedrock of his personal ethics the second time around.
