The king I married is Aemond’s father as well as the father of my childhood companion, the Princess Rhaenyra. He took me to wife not long after her mother died. And when I swiftly gave birth to sons, I brought challengers for her throne into this world.
She has strengthened her claim in turn by marrying the King’s brother, her uncle. A man most murderous and vile.
But I am the one who crowned my firstborn in the hours after her father died, so that he might rule and live. Now neither side will yield.
Do you follow me thus?
[ aemond was right. she should have mentioned this sooner. ]
