Dragons are fire-made flesh. Rhaenyra knew her claim to the Iron Throne would be challenged, but not that it would lead to war. Nor did she expect the land to be ravaged and lose everyone she loved. When her half-brother feeds her to his dragon, she is ready to die; the pain in her heart is gone. But the Gods of Valyria offer Rhaenyra a choice: she can choose between living in eternal happiness or returning to the mortal realm for a second chance. The former means leaving the world at a tyrants' mercy and allowing the icy evil from the North to sweep over the land. The latter means preventing dragons' extinction and restoring House Targaryen. Rhaenyra knows her duty and chooses the second option but her mind is full of doubt. Can she do it? Can she stop the horrible civil war almost destroying her House and the Kingdom? Or is her death written in the pages of fate?

Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen knows her marriage to Laenor Velaryon is a false one. Neither really wanted it, but she was forced into it by her own faults. Both know their duty, yet after three months of trying for children, her womb lays empty. With the daggers upon their throats, Laenor comes up with a simple solution: another must be the father of her children, and he has the perfect man in mind. Initially horrified at their suggestion, Corlys is not blind to the potential of such an action. This would guarantee his blood upon the Iron Throne, but its cost is betraying the vows he made to his wife. How far would you go to achieve your own ambitions?
