   Summary

   Three years after their marriage, Laenor and Rhaenyra finally visit Driftmark. Though Rhaenyra avoided Daemon for years, as her good sister is ready to give birth, she cannot escape him, anymore, nor his clever games.

   Come, Daemon quietly whispers. Come back to me.

   They’re here for a birth - they might stay for a funeral.

    

   or: the dance of dragons if daemon targaryen slaughtered every pawn on his way to both rhaenyra and her ascension.
