Summary
"You could do it."
They both know it is an impossible fancy. That Gwayne should knight Daeron, that he should change or leave a mark upon him of any sort at all. Ormund will never allow it. That is a prerogative reserved solely for himself.
The man has staked a claim in Daeron’s life, a life which is now carefully managed so that the Lord of the Hightower may be the cornerstone in every decisive moment — indeed, practically every thought that enters Daeron’s head. They march, the three of them, according to Ormund’s vision, Ormund’s plan. Even if it is toward ruin. However much he loves the boy, Gwayne will only ever be at best a visitor and at worst, an interloper in that plan.
The summer he turns ten-and-six, standing at the precipice of manhood, Daeron finds himself drawn into a strange pas de deux with his uncle. As Gwayne tries and fails to keep them both above water, the rules that have governed their relationship begin to unravel — very slowly, then all at once.
At the rotten core of it all is Ormund.

Summary
Instead of quiet nights with Piper, and long conversations about whatever book she’d been reading or the evils of Monsanto or whatever, his nights more often than not featured Saxon sprawled out on his floor with his arms akimbo, bitching about the frigid harpies in risk management who kept shutting him down. Or – even more overwhelming – those nights when Saxon’s blue eyes would swivel onto him and suddenly he’d be the center of the conversation.
