    Summary

    They say that, in the moments before death, you can see your life flash before your eyes. As he plummeted toward his end, Daemon Targaryen didn't see a fucking thing. But many thoughts raced through his mind.

    He had always told himself he had no regrets. But that wasn’t true.

    He regretted surrendering his crown to his ungrateful niece. He regretted marrying her. He regretted letting her place Harwin Strong’s children above his own—if Aegon and Viserys were even his at all.

    His eyes searched the sky for the great green beast, but it had already vanished beneath the waters of the God's Eye, taking its rider with it. Bitterness and fury gripped the Rogue Prince. Everything he had done—everything he had sacrificed—had been for the honor and glory of House Targaryen. And for what? So a drunkard or a spoiled child could sit the Iron Throne? His House had been reduced to a shadow of what it once was, and history would remember him as nothing more than a consort—the lapdog of a whore queen.

    He closed his eyes, awaiting death’s cold embrace, and in that final instant, he wished—if only for a moment—that he could do it all over again.

    Summary

    My dear Miss Featherington,

    I hope you will forgive the liberty of this letter. I wished to tell you, how much I owe you. Do you recall that afternoon in the gardens, some months past? You were waiting for my sister, the late sun caught in your hair. I remember thinking you looked otherworldly.

    I sketched you then. I did not intend to; my hand acted before I considered the impropriety. I continued to do so on other days, from other angles, always unseen—until you noticed. I expected embarrassment, perhaps reproach. Instead, you regarded the drawing as something of value. You said it was beautiful, and encouraged me to pursue what moved me.

    No one had spoken to me in such a manner before. My family indulges my drawing as a harmless pastime. You were the first to suggest it might be more. That it might be mine. It was shortly after that I resolved to apply to the Royal Academy of Arts, having concluded my studies at Eton. I do not presume greatness, but I am choosing my own path.

    For that resolve, I thank you.

    Yours most sincerely,
    Benedict Bridgerton.

    King of the Hightower by

    Summary

    In 97 AC, Daemon Targaryen weds Alicent Hightower. How can that change the course of history?

    What follows is an alternate Dance of Dragons, between Daemon Targaryen and Rhaenyra Targaryen. The factions have shifted, alliances have brought half of the realm together for the Reds and the Rogue Prince is known by the name of "King of the Hightower". Will the Blacks stand any chance?

    When dragons dance, the realm bleeds.

    All credit goes to George R.R. Martin. This story is different from the original, although most characters are the ones from canon.
