My son took his wife’s boy from this world, and long before that, her boy took mine’s eye. Accidents all, until Daemon enacted his revenge.
[ an eye for an eye, a son for a son. she does not believe aemond meant to kill rhaenyra’s boy when their dragons met above the storm. she does believe daemon intended to steal one of her children as recompense and seized upon a babe in his cradle instead. ]
I do, Hawk. I have agreed a truce with Daemon’s wife, my childhood companion the princess Rhaenyra, who is the rival claimant for my son’s throne. I do not wish for any here to be drawn into another land’s war and have sworn my son to peace thusly.
With our numbers as they are, however, they would be fools not to consider a strike. I would be glad to count you as my ally, if only to deter any violence.
