   Summary

   Daemon Targaryen goes to war, demands a healer, finds a wife, and builds a family. The Stepstones are only the beginning. This is the story of a family built from grit and mercy, and truly starts when a dragon decides he needs Elena of Wrath Bay.

   Or:
   What would happen if Daemon knew how to tell his brother and niece no?

   Note:
   Will add tags as I post but just a heads up that this story will have time skips and is entirely self indulgent. Will primarily be Daemon or Viserys POV but will have to wait until after the Stepstones for Viserys to show himself. OC is a vehicle for Daemon's independence.
