Summary
After the tragic death of Lyonel Strong in a fire at Harrenhal, King Viserys resolves to once again name Otto Hightower as the Hand of the King. That night, Viserys dreams of the dire future awaiting his family and the realm. The future he himself has inadvertently brought about.
Viserys decides to do everything he can to prevent that future and ensure that his daughter will one day ascend the throne unopposed.
Rhaenyra is not sure if she believes in the veracity of her father’s dream but, on the back foot against Alicent at court, the king’s newfound support is welcomed.
However, as Viserys’s obsession with clearing a path for Rhaenyra’s queenship grows, is it too late for Rhaenyra to reconcile with Alicent and mend the divide between their two families?

Summary
In the thundering darkness came fear. Not the fear he had as a child — crying and climbing into someone else’s bed out of fear that the lurking monster that made skies roar would come after him —, but the fear of what it omitted from his ears. Nothing would let him hear the faint sound of approaching footsteps nor would candlelight let him see, the bouncing light was faint and any assassin knew how to go undetected even in the brightness of day.
Gwyndolin receives a letter from an unknown sender.
