   Summary

   Following the Defiance of Duskendale, the Mad King has a very different “reward” for his savior than allowing Ser Barristan to spare Dontos Hollard. While not considered a reward by Barristan, the events that follow cause an incredible change in Jaime’s life. He is brought to the city to squire for Barristan the Bold and train with the rest of the Kingsguard. The presence of Genna and Jaime in the city have a greater impact than the king imagined, and House Targaryen turns on itself with House Lannister caught in the middle.
