Summary
What if Rhaenyra and Laenor had true born children and what if their first child was a daughter? Visenya Velaryon has inherited her mother’s title as the Realm’s delight, loved by all the people for her ethereal beauty and having a keen eye for politics as she served as her grandfather’s cupbearer.
With Rhaenyra’s undisputed claim to the throne, many are vying for Visenya’s hand in marriage in hopes of claiming power of themselves. Who will claim her affection? Will it be Alicent’s firstborn son, Aegon, whose particular distaste for the throne had turned around at the thought of Visenya. Or will it be her second born, Aemond, who might be keen to forgive the loss of his eye if it meant to have her hand.
Rhaenyra struggles to paint herself as an exceptional successor and giving in to her desires. She’s torn between her wants and being a good example to her children. She has her secrets and their undoing might set off a battle that she isn’t ready to fight.
A marriage might mend the realm of its growing tensions, or will be the straw to break it. Either way, all is fair in love and war.
Complete!
Eventual Daemyra (not main couple). A lot of relationship mess for all characters.
