Summary
Robert dies during the battle of the bells and Aerys dies after being poisoned. King Rhaegar reconciles with his wife and makes peace on Dorne's terms. A guilt ridden Lyanna agrees to take the blame and the punishment as long as the North is not penalised for her mistakes.
Most people agree that Queen Elia Martell is a magnanimous and kind woman. Why else would she agree to such a mild sentence? Arranging for her brother to marry her husband's discarded lover, even giving her a generous dower.
Lyanna finds herself married to a man who hates her, in a kingdom where she is both unwelcome and unwanted. She gets to raise her son, as long as she earns her keep and learns to be a dutiful wife. All she has to do is survive the Red Viper.
