Summary
When asked in the past by curious sons of what happens when a person dies, Baelor Targaryen sat them down and patiently explained that the Faith of the Seven teaches them that the righteous are blessed in the Seven Heavens as long as they lead a virtuous life and repent for any sin committed. He had never questioned it himself.
Falling to a blow by his brother's mace while defending what was right, even against his own family, Baelor should have been feasting in the Father's golden hall and waiting until the moment he would be reunited with his family. That did not happen.
Instead, the former Prince of Dragonstone woke up far from home and everyone he knew, though the faces he found himself among were not unfamiliar to him. But what does it mean to find yourself in the pages of your family's own history books?

Summary
History remembers Rhaenyra and Daemon Targaryen. History remembers all the steps and all the years of their ungainly dance. History remembers how, in the end, their blood always warmed the Iron Throne and heralded in the Song of Ice and Fire. It is known.
It is not known, however, what would have happened if their dance had no missteps, if their union had come through earlier, and if their hatchlings took flight near the same time as the Greens. It is not known, either, what would have happened if all of their children were not simply children, but blood-of-their-blood from the future, from the far past, and even from a world gone by. There might still be a Dance, though probably not the same Dance. And in the end, those fit to remain shall remain, and those who are unneeded shall not be kept.
Mostly Bookverse. Crack Treated Seriously.

Summary
“There is nothing 'supposed' about my children.” she went on, each word gaining weight, “They are the future of this house. Written in law. Written in dragonfire. You may hate that. You may taste bile every time you say their titles. You may kneel at your bedside and whisper other names into your pillow. I do not care.”
“Rhaenyra,” Viserys breathed, worn and pleading.
A muscle jumped in Alicent’s cheek. “You think I wanted—”
“I think you wanted exactly what you have,” Rhaenyra cut in. “Rooms in my father’s Keep. A seat at his side. A crown that never sits right on your hair because you know you came to it on your knees.”

Summary
History was written by the survivors, and Rhaenyra Targaryen was not meant to be one. Her story ended in dragonfire and ash, her name scrubbed from the tapestries of the Red Keep, her legacy reduced to a cautionary tale whispered to rulers who feared their own downfall.
She was supposed to die by fire. Instead, she awakened in a peaceful Westeros that remembered her only as "the Pretender".
At the tourney of Ashford, she crossed paths with Baelor Breakspear who was a prince, widower and heir to a realm that prided itself on stability. A man forged in iron rules and honor, Baelor has studied the histories of the Dance. He knew the queen who had nearly torn the Seven Kingdoms apart. However, he never expected to meet her.
Least of all when she struck his nephew and almost fractured his father's fragile peace.
What did it mean to protect someone who was already dead? How could a prince rule a peaceful realm while being haunted by a queen he could not claim to know? And when duty demanded distance, why did he hesitate?
