    Summary

    From the time of the Andals arrival in Westeros, and the beginning of knighthood in the kingdoms, it is a well-kept tradition for knights to not only swear their oath to the seven, but to preserve a record of the great feats of their own master and his predecessors by way of adding in lines. As such, the lineage of knight to squire is preserved through the memorization and passing of these vows, and while the words are kept secret from all but their own cohort, knights who share the same oathkeeping lineage...

    ... There are only a handful of famed chivalric lineages that are confirmed to still exist today, most notable amongst them is the oath taken by the Dragonknight Ser Aemon Targaryen, currently preserved by his three known squires, King Daeron Targaryen the Second, his son Prince Baelor Targaryen, and Ser Robyn Rhysling. As with most lineages, it is likely there are other knights within the cohort , but those names have since been lost to time.

    Summary

    Born of fire and stone, Baelor Targaryen was raised between a father who hardened him through distance and a mother who taught him that gentleness could still be power. The realm saw a fair and patient son, never noticing how easily kindness could become something dangerous. Even as doubt grew, Baelor clung to a fragile loyalty to his father, until his mother’s suspicious death fractured it and forced him to learn the cost of trust.

    At court stood Rhaenyra Targaryen, feared by many and burdened by isolation. What began as distance slowly shifted into recognition, then into something neither of them fully understood, until they were bound together in a marriage neither truly trusted. Surrounded by whispers and betrayal, they came to realize that they might be the only ones willing to stand beside each other.

    But in a world where love was seen as weakness and power demanded cruelty, what did that choice cost them? Did Baelor ever truly let go of the loyalty that shaped him, or did it destroy what he tried to build with her? And when it mattered most, did they choose each other or themselves?

    Summary

    Baelor Breakspear died beneath a summer sky, struck down in a tourney meant to celebrate peace. The songs called it noble, the histories made it simple. He had expected darkness, but instead he woke to dragons, to salt and smoke, and to a past that should have already turned to ash.

    On Driftmark, he found Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen not as a distant legend, but as a woman standing at the edge of her fate. He knew how her story would end and what it would cost her, yet his presence began to change the course of it in ways he could not fully control. The closer he drew to her, the more uncertain everything became, including the life he once belonged to.

    If he rewrote her fate, what would remain of his own? Would the future that held his family simply disappear, or had it already begun to fade the moment he arrived? Was he meant to save her, or was he only delaying something that could not be undone?

    Summary

    “You're a quick study, ser. You'll do well for me, I know.”

    Ser Duncan's hands tighten for a second, pupils widening. Oh, ser. He kisses him again, cradles his jaw, coaxing more of those soft, helpless sounds from his knight. Baelor steps closer, rests his knee on the edge of Ser Duncan's chair. “Let's take the edge off, ser,” he says. “I'll have you spend more than once, tonight.”

    “On your leg? Like a dog, milord?” he asks, a flush high up on his cheeks. His hips are already moving slightly, helpless little twitches.

    “My dog,” Baelor says. “Come now, ser. Be good.”

    On the eve of Ser Duncan's departure from King's Landing, Baelor gives him a night to remember him by.
