    Summary

    “No, I’m only joking, it would absolutely be a date, yeah. You’re just so fascinating, I want to pick your brain apart with like… an ice pick or something.”

    “A lobotomy, you are describing a lobotomy,” Alicent murmurs.

    Alicent is the Director of Communications for the Vice President. Rhaenyra serves as the White House Liaison to the President. Which means they see each other every day. Something that would not be a problem at all—if not for the fact that Alicent absolutely hates Rhaenyra's guts.

    Summary

    Princess Rhaenys and her dragon Meleys bring something to Dragonstone besides the news that Viserys I is dead. She brings what could be the single most valuable hostage the Blacks could hope to gain: Dowager Queen Alicent Hightower.

    Now, Rhaenyra has a bargaining chip that could help her keep the succession crisis restricted to a war of ravens, and she has a marriage scheme she believes will resolve everyone's problems for good. Alicent isn't so sure Rhaenyra's ideas will work any better for her now than they have in the past. Between frustration with her old (former?) friend's political decisions and a desperate hope that she might keep all her children alive, Alicent finds herself working with the Blacks to build up Rhaenyra's base of power.

    Summary

    After the tragic death of Lyonel Strong in a fire at Harrenhal, King Viserys resolves to once again name Otto Hightower as the Hand of the King. That night, Viserys dreams of the dire future awaiting his family and the realm. The future he himself has inadvertently brought about.

    Viserys decides to do everything he can to prevent that future and ensure that his daughter will one day ascend the throne unopposed.

    Rhaenyra is not sure if she believes in the veracity of her father’s dream but, on the back foot against Alicent at court, the king’s newfound support is welcomed.

    However, as Viserys’s obsession with clearing a path for Rhaenyra’s queenship grows, is it too late for Rhaenyra to reconcile with Alicent and mend the divide between their two families?
