    Summary

    He'd been seven when he first understood what Waters meant. The way lords' eyes slid over him at feasts. The careful distance in their courtesy. The way servants whispered with as much cruelty as pity. His half-siblings—trueborn—moved through the Red Keep like they owned the stones. And they did. Their futures were already written: titles, marriages, inheritances. Daemon's future was blank parchment, and every word would have to be won with blood and sweat.

    Fate is a fickle thing. In another life, perhaps Daemon Waters would have been controlled by the wants of others. Perhaps he would have died fighting a war as nothing more than a puppet. But in this one, Daemon Waters resolves to create his own path through fire and blood.

    A cannon-divergent retelling of the Blackfyre rebellion from the perspective of Daemon Blackfyre.
