The dim torchlight of the Red Keep’s corridors fades into the heavier gloom of the council chamber as Rhaenyra, just eighteen, steps inside. Her silent arrival cuts through the palpable tension between her husband and her uncle, Daemon. The air itself seems to thicken when Daemon, with a voice like a honed blade, tosses out a scornful remark about the duties of parenthood. Rhaenyra lets out a sigh, part youthful exasperation, part sharp-edged sarcasm, as she considers the notion of another child. Daemon’s eyes flicker to her, and his derision shifts focus, questioning the foundation of her marriage, all while letting slip the open secret of his own obsessive want for his niece. The room hums with the unspoken power plays and buried truths of House Targaryen.
