Summary
The youngest daughter of House Dayne ventured out to win glory as a mystery knight. Forced to answer summons from King's Landing, Nymeria finds herself in a den of vipers instead. She is at odds with the capital, marked by her foreign culture and her crossing of their boundaries for women. To survive she will have to fight in ways she never has before.
Queen Alicent asks her to protect her daughter, just as a woman warrior was sworn to shield the late Good Queen Alysanne, she promises to safeguard the princess Helaena. A task that proves treacherous, given her marriage to prince Aegon, the would-be king of the Greens, whose appetite and cruelty was never slaked. Tensions rise, Nymeria begins to care for her charge, and Helaena becomes a friend.
Complicating matters further is the other Targaryen prince, Aemond, and his tumultuous first meeting with Nymeria. A disastrous and fateful night that leaves marks in both. The two are nothing alike, she wants to think, and yet they are bound, in otherness, and in scars that run much deeper than skin. They aren't meant to see each other, they certainly aren't allowed to fall in love. This is the story of why they do anyway.
