Summary
Summerhall remembers badly.
Twenty years after Maekar Targaryen’s suicide, Lyonel Baratheon writes against the silence Baelor Targaryen would rather preserve: the boy in the rain, the boy with the ruined cassette tapes and chipped black polish, the boy everyone called difficult because difficult was easier than afraid.
At sixteen, Lyonel thought he had been given a secret. A room. A dance. A kiss, perhaps. A glimpse of what Maekar was to Baelor, and what Baelor should never have been to him.
At thirty-six, he knows better than to trust any of it.
A story about first love, old houses, unreliable memory, and the cruel difference between being protected and being seen.
