Summary
"The poor thing", they would often say. "A fourth child and a second daughter is cursed enough as is, but with no white hair?"
"Did you hear what His Grace had said the other day? Heard it from one of the maids. He couldn't even recognize his own daughter,"
"Gods be good, well, no wonder when ya got the little lass running around with that unruly brown hair like a commoner!"
"Shh! Not so loud! What if one of the King's guards hear you?"
"What? Isn't it true? At least the third princeling has some white tufts and those purple eyes, the lassie don't even got that for her favour, just plain and common like her mother,"
"Her mother is the Queen, in case you have forgotten,"
The milkmaid laughs cruelly, glancing down at the little Princess on her lap. "What's it matter to us? She and this little babe will never be important to the realm,"

Summary
'They do not see me for who I am,' she thought. 'Not yet. Perhaps that is a great blessing. When the Seven strike them down, no one will have expected dear Meek Aelys to have been bruising her knees, begging for it at the altar.'
Aelys clasped her hands over her chest, lowered her gaze in reverent imitation of piety, and whispered her prayers. The Seven-who-are-one would judge all things. She would endure. And in time, they would learn—too late—what she was capable of.
Princess Aelys was not born with wicked intent in her heart.
She was made so carefully, lovingly, and with great devotion.

Summary
He was her bloodiest birth—three nights of labour, a wellful of tears, and enough agony to frighten the king from attempting to put another babe in her belly. At least, for another four years.
Through that pain, I gave you life.
Perhaps, in the act, she had given him too much of herself. That was why her roots inside of him had festered. She had infected him with her rot.
Alicent realises too late that she bred her second son for war.
