Summary
In the year 129 AC, Lucerys Velaryon loses everything when his mother, Rhaenyra Targaryen, dies under mysterious circumstances secretly orchestrated by Otto Hightower, Hand of the King and mastermind of the Greens. When the Greens, primarily three Hightowers - Otto, Ormund, and Myles - usurp the Iron Throne, Lucerys is stripped of his name, separated from his brother, and sent to Oldtown. Accompanying him on this journey is his uncle Daeron, a bitter rival, now squire and cupbearer to Lord Ormund Hightower.
When an uprising in the Riverlands necessitates a seaward journey, the Ironborn, contingent Green allies, are tasked with escorting Lucerys, Daeron, Otto, Ormund, and Myles south. During their arduous voyage and beyond, the five of them will undergo incessant trials, tribulations, and torment that will change them forever.
Along the way, despite their initial rivalry, Lucerys and Daeron form an unexpected bond that may blossom into something forbidden and dangerous.
And Otto is the one who makes all of it possible.
