    Summary

    Lady Ryelle Arryn was one of girls chosen from across the realm, to accompany Kiera of Tyrosh as ladies-in-waiting, upon her arrival in King's Landing. Ryelle was quiet, and tender hearted. Not a lady to seek an advantageous marriage, but one who sought to remain by Kiera's side.

    With the dormant threat of the Blackfyres haunting the throne, and the Free Cities growing brazen once more, the Vale forged a marriage of convenience with the Crown, thrusting Ryelle from the shadows unto Maekar's side, and the role of Princess of Summerhall.

    Maekar will have to learn to navigate the simmering tensions of his brother's regency, and his fear of betraying Dyanna's memory. While Ryelle must find her footing at court, and in her husband's bed.

    Summary

    Keira Nazeri is neither the Chosen One nor a destined legend.
    Just a Jedi trying to survive a war that devours everything: worlds, bodies, certainties.

    But the Force shows her too much.
    Visions, others’ emotions, fragments of a future she cannot escape or change.

    Between suicide missions, Zygerrian slavery, fragile alliances, losses, and dangerous bonds with Obi-Wan Kenobi, whom she understands a little too well, and Anakin Skywalker at the center of it all, Keira moves through a Republic that is slowly collapsing.

    As the war turns Jedi into soldiers, one question begins to haunt her:
    how much of herself can she lose before she is no longer on the side of the light?

    Summary

    Three moons after Queen Alicent gave birth to her third child, the king’s second son, the Princess of Dragonstone began her own labors twelve moons to the day after her marriage to Ser Laenor Velaryon. After laboring most of the night, the midwife pulled the Princess Aelora from her mother’s body just as the dawn broke. Aelora was her mother’s heir for the two years between her birth and the birth of her younger brother, Prince Jacaerys.

    Everyone expected the Realm’s Delight to betroth her son and daughter to each other, but the princess never made a formal announcement, the Red Keep never sent ravens from the rookery announcing the match. As the children grew older, rumors surrounding their paternity began to swirl. Princess Rhaenyra offered a match between her daughter Aelora and the Queen’s oldest son, Aegon, to quell the whispers. But the match was not yet to be.

    Summary

    Princess Laera Targaryen was the youngest of five children. Her father was King, but her place was nowhere near the throne - for she was married at age 16 and sent north to Winterfell. Once close with her siblings and some of their children, years passed and distance grew.

    Laera no longer communicated with her family directly, but her husband did. He tells them that she’d practically gone mad… and they believed it.

    But then Lord Stark dies, and a Princess goes missing.
