   Summary

   The usurper Aegon II has failed to hold the crown, not that he wanted it in the first place.
   With Otto Hightower dead, Rhaenyra reclaims her throne, and it is only out of love for her oldest friend that she keep Aegon alive. Banished without titles, Aegon is ordered to work in the stables for a year before being brought back to trial; an attempt to see if the corrupt prince can be redeemed.
   Aegon is content to keep his head down and see it through, but kitchen maid Una shifts everything.
