   Summary

   The Dance of the Dragons was never inevitable.

   Fear made it inevitable.

   Reborn into House Targaryen decades before the civil war, one woman attempts not merely to save a family, but to teach an entire civilization how to outgrow the cycle of conquest. Across one hundred and fifty years, dragons, kings, scholars, merchants, and commoners together reshape Westeros into something history never imagined.
