Summary
And even if getting Rhaenyra in as a soloist was a staggering show of nepotism, she was still the best concert pianist on the planet. It was like when Dmitri Junior recorded Shostakovich’s second. You could get mad about it for a bit, but it was ultimately fair game. Alicent had already reached all these conclusions because Viserys had spoken to her weeks ago about programming the Concerto, which only had the unwanted effect of giving her time to turn it over in her brain like a particularly nauseating Rubix cube. Each solution of the puzzle led her to the same conclusion: she would be seeing Rhaenyra imminently, and there wasn’t a damn thing she could do about it.
After ten years apart, Rhaenyra Targaryen re-enters Alicent's life for a set of solo engagements with her orchestra. Things go about as well as expected (not very).

Summary
“You’ll take the vow tonight,” he said. “After that, no lordship, you, no wife, no land, no babes. This–” And he stamped his foot so that the horses tossed their heads. “The gate ‘tween all that was and the night ahead.”
“It’s just a fucking wall, man,” Lyonel said, but felt a shiver run through him all the same.
In 196 AC, a common Flea Bottom urchin is claimed by a wandering crow after being accused of murder.
In 209 AC, Lyonel Baratheon strikes a prince in defense of a common puppet girl and chooses taking the black over losing a hand.
In the shadow of the Wall, at the end of the world, the two of them meet.

Summary
“Okay,” Becka says, in that voice she uses when she wants to appease her friend. “With who?”
Hannah turns to her side, propping up on an elbow, so that she can gaze down at Becka, who’s busy sinking into her beanbag - all the while preparing to say one of the single worst names Becka’s ever heard in her life. “His name’s Garth.”
Becka has too many things to worry about before graduating, and one of them is getting to the graduating part in the first place.
