   Summary

   King Jaehaerys was a dreamer - and he knew when those wretched dreams were prophetic. In order to avoid the tragedy that was supposed to befall his family, he decides to commit a crime - but it is a lesser evil to get rid of a baby than to watch his children suffer in the future. There is no other way to avert the prophecy, he tells Alysanne with a heavy heart.

   The babe does not die, though. He lives and grows in foreign lands - and he will come home, to the place where he was born, to the woman who had given birth to him.
