   Summary

   "What is it that Maegor said?" Cersei asked eyes flickering to her husband, "From the pyres, House Targaryen came, to the pyres they go."

   or...

   A Fire and Blood rewrite where several characters are born earlier and the affects and changes that has on Targaryen history as a whole.

   Oh, and Planetos somehow manages to experience the Renaissance as a consequence.
