   Summary

   In hopes of making things right after the tragic outcome of the battle of the gullet, Rhaena Targaryen is faced with a choice. Return home with the head of Aemond one-eye, or die trying.

   She never expected the greatest obstacle standing between her and her goals to be Ser Gwayne Hightower.
