    Summary

    Aemond Targaryen is furious with his newly imposed wife: an insolent woman, marked by bastard blood and by her refusal to bend to the role assigned to her. To him, Valia is a political mistake, an inconvenient burden, and a silent affront to the order he believes he controls. He watches her with contempt, certain that her defiance is nothing more than stubbornnessl, until, before the eyes of the court, she collapses into Aegon’s arms. The collapse exposes more than the fragility of her body: it reveals dangerous cracks in Aemond’s fury and forces him to confront a fear he would never admit to feeling.
