   Summary

   Princess Aerea Targaryen, the eldest daughter of Prince Jaehaerys and Princess Shaera, granddaughter of Aegon the Unlikely, has lost her family in the Tragedy at Summerhall. How will Westeros react to having a Queen upon the Iron Throne? Is Aerea set for madness or greatness? She is cunning and with a hunger for power, but nothing rivaled her vanity and the size of her ego. Regardless of that, no one ever doubted the love she had for her husband.

   Lord Tywin Lannister seized the opportunity of advancing his House's legacy by courting the future Queen of Westeros. He fought to bring fear and respect for the Lannister name, now being the Consort to the ruling Queen. He had to rule the Seven Kingdoms, stop rebellions, fight the tide of unrest amongst lords and clean up after Aerea's uncontrollable temper. He has to not only straighten the realm but also protect the temperamental wife he adores.

   Who is the cursed and who is the blessed?
