#alyn & aegon iii

[drakaripykiros130ac]

This should be the final scene from House of the Dragon:

The extremely emotional reunion of Rhaenyra and Daemon’s sons.

Aegon III Targaryen married to Daenaera Velaryon.

Alyn Velaryon and Baela Targaryen as the Lord and Lady of Driftmark.

Rhaena Targaryen (the rider of the Blacks’ pride and joy, the dragon Morning) and her husband, Corwyn Corbray (Brave valeman and Team Black supporter).

Alicent Hightower’s horrific, well-deserved end and the treacherous Green line permanently ended.

A new beginning for the true members of House Targaryen.

And I want Rhaenyra’s theme to play in the background, just as it did in the first episode, because this is after all, her victory.

[pinkiscent]

its so funny how the greens think that aegon iii and viserys ii hated rhaenyra just because they had to acknowledge aegon the usurper as the king. you really think aegon, who spent his life mourning his mother and his brothers, hated his mother more than what he hated the usurper? you really think THE dragon twins would let aegon and viserys walk away from who his parents were and how their brothers died in a war that ultimately ended up putting both of them in the throne? its laughable how the greens try to grab whatever victories they can because they have NONE. all the targtowers went down in history as usurpers and traitors, hated even by their own council and ignored even by the remaining hightowers. the velaryon boys, the so called bastards, went down in history as loyal to their mother and brave, and most importantly, VELARYONS. their legacy continued through baela and alyn even after both of them were gone. if that's not poetic justice then i don't know what is

Targaryen Siblings + Purple Eyes.

Team Black characters at the beach

Rhaenyra:

Stays out of the water, prefers to tan and play with the younger kids in the sand

Goes in a modest 2-piece swimsuit that Daemon argued was too revealing (she slayed)

Daemon:

In the water terrorizing the kids (all of them, not just his own)

Gets angry when his team loses in beach volleyball

Corlys:

Slept through half the day

Cute grandpa that teaches the babies how to swim

Rhaenys:

Proposed the idea of volleyball bc she was bored and seeing Daemon freak out at losing would be funny

Brought a gazillion snacks and drinks (including some sneakily hidden booze)

Jacaerys:

Always moving and being active (volleyball, swimming, indulging Joff by racing him)

He is the default parent supervising all the kids (except Vis and Aeg) bc the adults are relaxing

Baela:

Making weird faces to scare off the men checking her out, then mocking them viciously

Absolutely destroys everyone in volleyball

Lucerys:

Ate most of the snacks himself (he felt very bad about it)

Spent most of the day swimming and got sunburnt bc of it

Rhaena:

Made a collection of sea glass, pretty rocks and shells

Sat with the adults in the shade and talked with them

Joffrey:

Somehow befriended most of the kids from other families

Caught a fish with his hands and scared strangers with it (much to Daemon's amusement)

Baby Aegon:

Cuddled up to his mom most of the day

Insisted on an evening beach bonfire bc he wanted smores (he was indulged)

Baby Viserys:

Made sandcastles all day

Bragged to everyone about his turquoise seashell bathing suit

Addam and Alyn:

Walked along the beach together while talking

Used Corlys's money (with permission) to get milkshakes and souvenirs

"Two ways to view the world so similar at times

Two ways to rule the world to justify their crimes

By kings and queens young men are sent to die in war

Their propaganda speaks those words been heard before

Two ways to view the world brought Europe Westeros down in flames

Two ways to rule

Has man gone insane?

A few will remain

Who’ll find a way

To live one more day

Through decades long years of war

It spreads like disease,

There’s no sign of peace

Religion Succession and greed

Cause millions to bleed

Three decades long years of war

From dawn to dawn they’re fighting,

Die where they stand

The fog of war lies thick

When armies scorch the land.

When all of Europe’s Westeros's burning

What can be done?

They’ve been to war a decade long year,

Two more to come

Long way from home

Döpas och dö I strid

Lifetime at war

Has man gone insane?

A few will remain

Who’ll find a way

To live one more day

Through decades long years of war.

It spreads like disease,

There’s no sign of peace.

Religion Succession and greed

Cause millions to bleed.

Three decades long years of war.

When they face death they’re all alike

No right or wrong, rich or poor

No matter who they served before

Good or bad, they’re all the same

Rest side by side now

Has man gone insane?

A few will remain

Who'll find a way

To live one more day

Through decades long years of war?

It spreads like disease

There's no sign of peace

Religion Succession and greed

Cause millions to bleed

Three decades long years of war..."

Lyrics: A Lifetime of War by Sabaton (slightly altered - to fit House of the Dragon - by me)

I'm not trying to be deep with this. I just have this song stuck in my head and, now, so do you.

[thevelaryons]

Has anyone (Ryan or the actors) explained why the Hull boys are so old - was it to make it clear that they're Corlys's sons? And do we know why they made Alyn older than Addam and switched their personalities?

Tbh the fact that Alyn is so old it's weird especially if we think that he'll marry Baela and have an affair with Rhaenyra's granddaughter (and Aegon is a toddler in the show)

I haven't seen anything about the reason why Addam & Alyn have been aged up or why their age order is switched. None of the interviews I've read through have discussed it.

Creating the age difference between Alyn and Baela is one of the oddest choices HOTD has done because book!Baela openly stated that she did not want to marry a much older man and ran away to avoid that situation for herself. Book!Alyn, being around the same age, would've been the reason she preferred him instead.

Baela Targaryen, when informed of the match, did not share their pleasure. “Lord Rowan is forty years my senior, bald as a stone, with a belly that weighs more than I do,” she purportedly told the King’s Hand.

HOTD already did something similar by aging down show!Laena to be a teenager when she married Daemon vs book!Laena being an adult woman. Now show!Baela gets to have this parallel with her mother too by being another victim of pedophilia.

The show won't go as far into the timeline for the Alyn/Elaena affair to happen, since there's only going to be 4 seasons. But if it did, the age gap is staggering. Aegon being aged down to be a toddler at the same time as Alyn being aged up to be a middle aged man just makes my head spin. GRRM already went to the trouble of giving us a huge age gap between Alyn in his 50s and Elaena in her 20s. Then Ryan Condal decided to make it even worse. In the show canon, Alyn is going to be in his 70s?? 80s????

If there's one thing Ryan Condal can be counted on to do, it's make everything worse for the female characters in the story.

ALYN OF HULL / VELARYON for the request thing 🙏 The way you drew him last time was so funny

Alyn having beef with the princes is one of my favorite things from The Blacks & The Greens 🙂‍↕️

[are they dragons or devils Alyn 🤨]

[horizon-verizon]

Baela & Rhaena placed a hit on Jaehaera cause why Baela had Daenaera up in KL like it was nothing ?

I think Rhaena had spies & courtesans whispering in Peake’s ears like “you are the hand, your daughter could be queen” knowing that he would try to harm that girl. Baela was tasked to find a replacement, a Valyrian bride from Essos perhaps with the help of Velaryon fleet.

Fast forward and instead of sending Alyn all the way to Essos to find Aegon’s new wife, they managed to find a Velaryon girl, Baela’s ward, an orphan, just like Aegon. Rhaena’s plan comes to fruition: Peake trying to pull an Otto and killing that girl. All Baela and Rhaena need now is to prepare Daenaera for KL.

It was genius when you think about it. Baela gets to solidify her maternal house status in KL by having the king’s wife be from House Velaryon & giving more protection to her brother, and Rhaena managed to completely destroy what’s left of the Green’s influence on the council by having him demoted.

Rhaena is very political astute and one thing about the Greens… they gon throw childish tantrums when their plans do not go as planned. She most likely knew Peake was going to threaten the king & council with his resignation. But the greed he had shown by trying to marry his daughter to Aegon rubbed the rest of the council the wrong way. thus no one was sad to see him go.

....I'm going to treat this as the joke I think it is and just not give a real answer.

btw, anon seems to respond to this post

[sarcasticsweetlara]

hiii, i have seen lot of ideas where the dance never happens like rhaenyra having a succesful reign, happy marriage life for jace-baela/ luke-rhaena. i think it would be funny if viserys run away to lys in a saera style for the drama, well my point is i like your au's so i wanted to know if you have headcanons for team black where the dance of the dragons never happened

There are many scenarios I could think of, actually...

And it depends how you want to see it because there are things that if erased creates more advantages and new situations, but could still stop the war.

1. Alicent accepts Rhaenyra's proposal of betrothing Jace and Helaena.

And Baela is betrothed to a Velaryon cousin (not a son of Vaemond due his infamy of wanting to take Driftmark from Corlys and his line), like a grandson of Malentine Velaryon (Maelor Velaryon; it's most likely Maelor is a Velaryon name) to support the claim of Lucerys and back him

<<Read more below>>

With Helaena becoming Queen consort she gives legitimacy to Jace's reign as well as Alicent getting her daughter as Queen consort, and with Baela being a backbone with the Velaryons then Luke will receive support as the Lord of Driftmark with Rhaena as Lucerys' wife as well; Jace's children could marry Baela's children and Joffrey as well marries one of the daughters of Baela to further legitimize his line.

Baela would be a lady-in-waiting for Helaena, and together they would arrange the betrothal of their children.

2. Jace marries Baela (now Daemon sees his daughter as Queen), Lucerys still marries Rhaena, and the children of Luke and Rhaena marry the children of Joff.

Now, in all of the scenarios present Aegon III would marry Daenaera as an alliance (they would always marry each other), and Viserys II would marry his niece Daena <<Daena deserved to become The Queen and be the mother of Daeron II and Daenerys, and of the whole dynasty>> to unite their bloodlines; and if baby Visenya survives, then Viserys would marry her (the original plan of Martin), and their son would marry their niece Daena to once again unite the bloodline with Daena being Queen and having her uncle and aunt as Hand and counselors.

3. Other possible scenario but this time after Rhaenyra: Aegon the Younger calls for a High Council once Rhaenyra dies peacefully, and he is chosen as king as the oldest legitimate son of Rhaenyra (Jace would no longer have the protection of Rhaenyra), Baela gets to Maelor Velaryon, and she becomes the Lady of Driftmark as a consort (we know Corlys would never choose her, but he could choose a great-great-nephew he liked), while Rhaena marries Corwyn Corbray, and Viserys would still marry either Visenya or Daena; but even then Aegon III would have mercy and spare the lives of Jace, Luke and Joffrey, and they would be married off to minor ladies.

Honestly, in the second and third scenarios I have to admit I think Aegon would eventually reach for the Throne because legitimately it is his.

...

Anyways, Rhaena's children would marry Baela's children, and Rhaena and Baela would be councilors to both Aegon III and Viserys II Targaryen.

I think it would be nice to see Daena or Visenya matching Viserys' fire and having a partner who is an equal and loves and supports him since he would be spared being a hostage of three different Lyseni families that threatened him and also would spare Westeros of the Rogare family, Aegon the Unworthy and the Blackfyre Rebellions.

Either way any of these relationships would mirror that of Baelon and Alyssa or Daemon and Rhaenyra.

But beyond that, Baela would be happy to become Lady of Driftmark, this time in a happy marriage, and would have a husband devoted to her; she would name her first daughter in honor of her mother and first son in honor of her grandfather Corlys; and Laena would be the grandmother of Aelinor Penrose through a daughter of hers (HC: Coryssa Velaryon) who married into House Penrose.

Rhaena would be free of the pressure of providing an heir quickly and therefore her first baby would be born, and would be able to use her dragon to quell the protestors against Joffrey Arryn (the heir of Jeyne Arryn) and Corwyn would live.

Baela would always introduce Daenaera to Aegon III, and Rhaena would take Viserys II on travels to Dragonstone and the whole realm.

Once Viserys II comes back, (if Visenya is not alive) Daena would meet him and they would fall in love and marry.

Baela's favorite niece would be Daena, followed by the daughters of her sister Rhaena, whereas Rhaena's favorite niece would be her little namesake.

Without the trauma of Larra Rogare and the need to overcompensate due to their involvement, Viserys II would see the practicality in sending Baelor to a Sept and therefore there would be no Maidenvault, and no threat of a religious war with the Stepstones, the Iron Isles and the North, as well as no disbalance of taxes going to the High Septons.

Rhaenyra and Daemon would be able to meet their grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and if Rhaenyra's daughter survives, Rhaenyra would have loved spoiling her little princess.

If Baela and Rhaena's full younger brother survives as well, this little boy called Aemon in honor of his great-grandfather, would be completely loyal to his half-brothers Aegon the Younger and Viserys, he would have a keep of his own in the Crownlands given by Rhaenyra so he doesn't compete against the Strong boys

But even then, Aemon would support his legitimate younger brother's birthright.

If Aemon lives, he would marry Maris Baratheon and that's one more ally for the Blacks.

Aemon would claim Grey Ghost itself or steal one of its eggs, he's the son of Daemon and Laena after all, and want to fight but he would be beat to it by Baela.

Aemon would be a male mini-Laena being as adventurous, smooth and demure as his mother, and his sisters would tell him stories about their mother.

Viserys would claim Vermithor and if Visenya lives, then she can claim Silverwing, and Daena and Rhaena could get one of the other dragon eggs of their aunt Rhaena, Elaena's egg could also hatch as well.

Baela would get a new dragon from one of the eggs of Morning as well.

Daemon would teach all of his sons how to fight and encourage them to embrace chaos.

Baela and Rhaena would spoil their little sister Visenya, and as Baela is a tomboy and Rhaena a girl's girl, I like to think Visenya would be kind of an introvert with a stylish witch vibe.

Viserys II would bring his mother many treasures he found on his travels.

And without the trauma of seeing Rhaenyra die, Aegon would proudly wear the crown of Rhaenyra and Daena would wear it as well.

And Visenya would get special tiaras for herself and Viserys as the second and third in command of Aegon III and later Daena.

And I guess these are my headcanons.

Our beloved Targaryen - Aegon III x Ofc

Pairing: Aegon III Targaryen x Velaryon ofc

It was mere months ago when it happened. When Daeron Velaryon drowned in the Stepstones, leaving two orphans behind. The two girls have already lost their mother Hazel, who died due to the winterfever. When Alyn Velaryon attacked at the daughters´ war in 133 ac, his cousin, Daeron, died and left his two young daughters behind.

Alyn didn´t hesitate when he proposed the idea of taking his nieces as their ward to his lady-wife Baela Targaryen. The two were still young and Baela wasn´t happy with his opposition, knowing she´d have to look after the sisters on her own while her lord-husband would continue to sail to the sea, just like their grandfather -mayhaps father, no one knew of Alyns true parentage- Corlys Velaryon, named the sea snake.

Baela relucted but gave in nonetheless. She grew to be fond of the two girls, for they were well-mannered and respected their elders. Daenaera, the younger one, was a happy child. She didn´t understand the concept of death yet and was therefore not inconsolable, unlike her older sister, Vaelys. The girl of thirteen was no fool, she knew of her current position as an orphan and was aware that she couldn´t behave badly when her kin fostered her and her little sister.

Therefore she always put on a smile, despite her inner turmoil. And her sweet sister always made Vaelys feel at ease, which made it easier for her to act happy. She vowed herself to protect little Daenaera, she couldn´t loose her babysister , after the passing of her parents, for which she would truly and utterly be alone.

When the realm received the news of queen Jaehaeras passing, everything suddenly changed. The hand of the king, Unwin Peake, along with the rest of the kings regents, declared for a ball to be held, where the king would choose his second wife and new queen. The people called it the Maidens´ ball day

The restriction of the ball were clear; only maidens of high nobility and under the age of thirty were allowed to attend the feast.

When house Velaryon heard of the news, they inclined to attend the feast themselves, to which they didn’t exactly get an invitation. But it was an open invite, right?

Unwin Peake wasn’t exactly fond of the rogue princes daughter, who was as reckless as her father. Aegon III didn’t have any heirs, his previous marriage remained fruitless, to which Lady Baela was now second in line to the iron throne. The hand of the king couldn’t stand that fact, he’d rather be hanged than watch the wild girl sitting in the iron throne.

Which was why he was so adamant on wedding the king to a new maid, preferably his own daughter. Many even speculated that he had a ‘hand’ in the death and many disappearances of the girls which were to attend the ball.

Those were still only rumors, and even if they did have some truth in it, no one could exactly prove it.

Nevertheless, lots of maidens around Westeros traveled to Westeros, including Vaelys.

When Baela and Alyn spoke to her about their idea, she couldn’t exactly deny them. They gave her and her little sister a home at a much needed time and they were well fed.

Vaelys knew that with her becoming consort, the Velaryons would hold more power over the realm than before and she was keen on returning a favor, especially when it meant that Daenaera could stay on Driftmark.

She would simply do anything for the well-being of her sister, after all.

Vaelys was still young though and didn’t wish to be married so soon, especially because she already had already blossomed which meant she was ready to be bedded, despite her young age.

The idea of it scared her senseless, she was mature for her age but she heard enough tales to know the risks of bedding girls too early, miscarriages, death on the birth bed and much more.

Baela assured her she wouldn’t be bedded until she was four and ten, where the risks wouldn’t be as high.

A glimmer of hope believed her kins words, but it wouldn’t even be sure if the king would choose Vaelys as her second wife, especially when over a thousand other maiden were presented in front of him?

Baela and Rhaena decided to have a dramatic arrival, riding into the great hall on horseback. Vaelys was behind them on a separate horse. She felt anxious when she noticed hundreds of people staring at her. Before departing for kings‘ landing, Rhaena made sure to dress Vaelys in a beautiful light blue gown, a necklace of sapphires was around her neck as her hair was braided into a halo, her white braid was decorated golden clips and she wore earrings that matched her necklace.

Vaelys worried about her sister, Daenaera who was left at Driftmark, together with Lord Alyn Velaryon. She missed her little sister dearly and worried if Daenaera was misbehaving or any of the sort, scared of her sister losing her place in the lords‘ castle.

She held her head high nonetheless, and kept her posture up while she rode behind her kin. When the lord commander demanded Baela to step off the horse, she replied with:“ His Grace my brother can command me. You cannot.“ Baela then shifted her attention to the king and Rhaena smiled fondly at him.

„Your grace, we’ve brought you the queen you want“, Baela spoke before Vaelys gracefully stepped off her horse, holding up the skirt of her dress while she walked towards the throne.

Vaelys then curtsied, gifting him a charming smile of hers. As she stood in front of him, she now could see him clearly. He was the same age as her, and had the same color of hair, which he kept to his shoulders long. He had a bored look on his face before she arrived, his fingers impatiently tapping against the side of a sword.

His eye color was the one of dark purple, it looked almost black. His eyes reminded her of the ones of a doe, while Vaelys herself had eyes of violet, like the flower viola.

„I am Lady Vaelys of house Velaryon, your grace“, she elaborated while raising her head.

The weary boy mirrored her expression, gifting her a smile of his own, much to the surprise of the people around them.

„You are very pretty, Vaelys“, he complimented. She was the first to be showered with affection by the king, much to the disdain of the lord hand.

Vaelys flushed at his words, feeling her cheeks redden by the sudden show of affection. She had heard of the boys’ attitude and was surprised being granted with his newfound attention.

“I am flattered, your grace”, she bowed once again and couldn’t control her lips from grinning widely at him. Her happiness somewhat affected the king, who was now also feeling more positive than before.

After Aegon nodded, Vaelys found her place next to Baela and Rhaena and the three of them waited for the rest of the maiden to be presented to him. Aegon only gave each of them a quick nod and his gaze sometimes switched to Vaelys.

After the everyone was finished, the king brought Gaemon to his side and whispered his decision into the boys’ ear.

Gaemon grinned at his friend and loudly declared his choice.

“The king will wed Vaelys Velaryon”, he smiled happily while Aegon sheepishly avoided the girls gaze.

Vaelys’ blood ran cold at the mention of her name.

Sure, Aegon was a beautiful boy and it would be an honor to be his queen but she didn’t really expect him to choose her.

Her eyes widened at the mention of her name and quickly looked to the two women at her side, who nodded in approval to her. They knew they made the right decision when bringing Vaelys to court with them

Unsure of what to do, Vaelys bowed her head out of respect and forced a smile of her own. The maidens were sobbing in the hall when they heard Gaemons words. Unwin was practically fuming at the boys‘ choice and was certainly not content with him.

When the guests were dismissed and left the hall afterward, Baela and Rhaena stayed with Vaelys. She bit her lip and felt her anxiety rise when the king arose from his throne. He dismissed himself rather quickly and wandered off to his chambers.

A servant then walked toward her and curtsied before asking her if she’d wish to be shown her new chambers.

Vaelys bid Baela and Rhaena a quick goodbye before she followed the older woman into the halls of the red keep. When they arrived, Vaelys unsurely looked around to take her new surroundings in. The servant quickly left her alone after she told her she’d then call her for a shared supper with the king himself.

Vaelys gulped at the mention of him, the reality slowly setting in. She was just a young girl without parents, thrown into a huge responsibility. Perhaps she’d find common ground with the king, but she did not know, yet.

The girl walked toward the window and held up her skirt before sitting on the window sill, watching outside the castle. She’d have to mentally prepare herself before being able to stepp foot outside her chamber.

It did not take long to wait until being called by the servant, since it was already late. Vaelys quickly stood up and smoothened out the wrinkles of her gown, making herself look presentable before following the maid toward the hall where the dinner was served.

When the guards declared her presence, Aegon looked up at her from his seat. She held his gaze for a short moment before he averted his gaze to his plate. Gaemon sat on one end of the table while mushroom, the jester, was on the other side. Vaelys then took her seat opposite from the king and a servant quickly filled her goblet of wine.

„your grace“, she acknowledged his presence and lowered her head before plucking a grape and eating it.

Aegon nodded at her and a hint of a smile was noticeable on his face. It was enough to make the girl flush once again, like in the great hall before.

Mushroom made one of his jests to which Gaemon giggled and Vaelys failed at hiding her chuckle. Mushroom was aware that he could never make the king laugh, but atleast his company seemed to be delighted by his humor.

Aegon kept quiet most of the time, but a rare smile graced his lips as he watched the two others enjoy themselves with mushrooms jests.

After their shared meal was finished, Aegon was going to dismiss himself to go to his chambers before Vaelys stopped him.

“Could you show me where the library is?”, she girl asked shyly. She could have asked any other servant to show her the hall, but she instead wants his presence near her.

She noticed that Aegon was a passive boy who would not make the first move, so Vaelys tried to spend time with him so they could warm up to one another. They were to be wed after all.

A servant came in between, offering the girl to show her the library themselve, before Aegon quickly interrupted them.

„I will do it“, he spoke lowly and motioned for Vaelys to follow him, which she gladly did.

The two dismissed themselves and walked down the hall, a sworn protector following in their heels. When they made halt in front of the library, extended his hand for hers which Vaelys gladly took.

The knight stayed outside the door, giving the two of them privacy.

„Do you often spend time here?“, she asked while her eyes trailed along the tall bookshelves. She let go of his hand as she walked toward a small shrine that caught her eye.

Aegon *almost* wounded at the sudden loss of contact, for he felt comfort from her warm touch.

“No, I’m not very fond of reading”, he replied monotone. His eyes followed her silhouette while she looked for a book, before she grabbed one from the shelve and sat on the comforter.

“Do you wish for me to read to you?”, she asked him while she made enough space for him to join her.

When he hesitated, she added:” My parents used to read to me when I was younger. When I’m in need of comfort or miss them, I read to someone. It reminds me of the affection they gave me.”

Aegon nodded and took a seat next to her on the cushion, leaning back. He was hopeful it would also help him with the loss of his own parents, which he missed dearly.

“Place your head on my lap, it soothes one”, she said. Aegon gulped, knowing it would be an intimate position for the two of them. He wasn’t ready to let his guard down around her so soon, but he was desperate to try and forget his loss fore one second.

He then did as he was told, slowly nestling himself in her lap. Her gown was surprisingly comfortable, he thought.

Vaelys opened the book and began to read to him; the story was about the failed of the sea snake. His adventures on sea and the things he encountered.

Vaelys had a soothing voice, it was soft and warm. It reminded him of his own mother. The candles gave the girl enough light to read the words on the pages, and when she felt him begin to shift more comfortably on her lap, she began to play with his hair.

The motion of her fingers on his scalp in combination with her soothing words made the boy fall asleep quickly. Vaelys didn’t notice and instead grew tired herself rather quickly. Before she realized, she fell asleep, the book was placed on the table next to her before she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.

It was a long time ago when Aegon had a sleep this deep and comfortable. When the hour grew too late, the knight slowly entered the library to check up on them when he saw the two entangled with each other.

He was unsure whether to wake them or not, he knew it wasn’t a very compromising position they were in. But he was aware of the kings demeanor and it was a rare sight to see him so at ease.

The king had trouble sleeping most nights, only sleeping a few hours before he stood up and watched the stars in the night sky.

The knight decided not to interrupt but to wait until morning where he’d quickly wake the two up before the servants could see them in the position they currently were in.

Aegon was sleeping peacefully in her lap as Vaelys was had him in an embrace. When the morning arrived, the guard quickly entered the library and ushered for them to wake up. Aegon slightly stirred in his sleep before he opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was the resting face of Vaelys.

He blushed as he remembered the previous night, quickly sitting back up before he gently shook her. “Mhm..?”, she bounced a couple of time and realized their closeness afterward.

“Oh”, her cheeks reddened and she quickly stood up, still rubbing her sleepy eyes. The guard then spoke:” Mylady, you should go to your chambers before the maids find you.”

She nodded and quickly bowed before Aegon and then walked out of the library where a different guard showed her the way.

“You won’t tell any one of this”, Aegon declared to the knight who then also bowed. “Of course, your grace.”

Aegon then hesitated before he also left the hall. He wasn’t quite sure what to think of the previous night. Vaelys was right when she said that reading to someone would help. He hadn’t slept like that in a long time, especially in one’s embrace. Aegon felt warm inside when he thought of her and he was eager to see her again.

He wasn’t used to this feeling, especially from a girl. It would take some time until he finally felt comfortable enough around her but he knew they both had the same trauma and could help each other.

He knew he made the right decision, to wed Vaelys Velaryon.

[drakaripykiros130ac]

GRRM basically spelling out how the Greens lost the war & how the Velaryons were never TG:

King Aegon II would soon stand naked before his enemies, all of the king’s men knew. Bloody Ben Blackwood, Kermit Tully, Sabitha Frey, and their brothers-in-victory were preparing to resume their advance upon the city, and only a few days behind them came Lord Cregan Stark and his northmen. The Braavosi fleet carrying the Arryn host had departed Gulltown and was sailing toward the Gullet, where only young Alyn Velaryon stood in its way…and the loyalty of Driftmark could not be relied upon.

“Your Grace”, the Sea Snake said, when the rump of the once proud green council had assembled, “you must surrender. The city cannot endure another sack. Save your people and save yourself. If you abdicate in favor of Prince Aegon, he will allow you to take the black and live out your life with honor on the Wall.”

- Fire & Blood, page 611

The Blacks had full control of the Realm and they obliterated the Green forces.

You are no king when you have no control over your kingdom and no army to defend you. Aegon the Usurper was forced to abdicate, but ended up murdered (just like Aerys II).

I find it incredible how even in death, Rhaenyra Targaryen inspired her forces to fight for her cause, and they won. Yet, no one fought for Alicent or her son in their time of need. On the contrary, their “allies” became turncloaks.

DAY 6: AN UNLIKELY DRAGONRIDER

NETTLES WEEK: FAVOURITE POST DANCE THEORY/ HEADCANON.

Nettles is the mother of two Queens.

Nettles in Dorne.

She marries the Sword of the Morning. Cousin of the Martells, when they are called it isn't questioned after the birth of the Lord of Starfall's first child by her. Her other 3 children are also welcomed, a new occurrence. Two girls and a boy, brown skin, purple eyes, and silver locs. When they arrive, they are told that not a day off course is the Lord of Driftmark and his return to Dorne.

Nettles and Alyn.

She doesn't run away, facing the problem for what it was, against her husband's wishes. She barely recognises Alyn as he steps off the boat, and he doesn't believe it's her until he's close enough to see her nose scar and the three children behind her. A blonde girl is rushed past them to meet a healer, and he embraces her. A blond boy follows her, and she recognises Viserys in an instant. After three days of apologies and explanations, they learn the girl has died. The daughter of House Rogares died. A plan is constructed between both after seeing how quickly Viseyrs takes to her second daughter. Nettles returned with Alyn too driftmark with her first 3 children under a promise of safety.

The fate of 6 children.

Her two daughters assume the identity of Larra Rogare and Daenaera Velaryon (a ward of Driftmark) and are wed to Viserys ii and Aegon iii Targaryen under the hope that the children will restore the power of house Targaryen, two brother sister marriages between the children of the Rogue Prince. Her son is taken as a ward of House Velayron, and she retains the right to visit her children under false pretences and different assumed identities so no one discovers the plot. It is sworn away, and the histories carry on as they were.
