   Summary

   The war is over, but the realm is shattered. King’s Landing still stands, but loyalty is a fragile thing, and the throne is far from secure.
   With the Greens victorious, Naerys Targaryen and Aemond Targaryen now rule together, not as consort and sovereign, but as equals. A marriage of necessity, a crown forged in blood.
   But ruling is another war entirely. The Faith must be tamed, the nobility appeased, and the ghosts of the past silenced. Aemond believes power is best wielded through fear. Naerys knows it must be bound with legitimacy.
   Fire and ice. Strength and stability. A dragon with two heads.
   If they are to hold the realm, they must first hold each other’s trust.
