... his crowning Lyanna is truly not their biggest problem, unfortunately :) The story will have a happy ending -though it depends on how you describe 'happiness'. We know barely anything about Elia and still, she is in my top ten list. I wonder what would have happened if she would marry Baelor Hightower instead of Rhaegar -definitely happier but how would the rebellion work? I don't think canon Rhaegar was capable of feeling strong emotions and deep connections such as 'love' due to his melancholic personality but everything in the books suggests that he was rather fond of her -as she was with him and well, call me delusional but I think he loved her more than this and people like Barristan doesn't know it because he never showed PDA in order to protect her from Aerys.
The angst will be good, I had already written some part of it :) Though the main couple of this story is Atera and Arthur so their angst > Rhaegar and Elia's angst, but it will be worth waiting, I promise. The whole Lyanna thing is soo complicated both in the canon and in this book, I am not saying that I am trying to justify Rhaegar's actions ...but I am trying to justify them though it's near impossible. I know that I wouldn't forgive him if I were Elia because well, there is a child nevertheless, so he did not only abondened her but also cheated on her and I am soo against forgiving the cheater trope so as I said, the end totally depends on how you describe 'happiness' :(
A piece of information, the update schedule goes like this; 3-2 (which means; Monday-Wednesday-Friday and then Tuesday-Thursday the next week). Thank you so much again, unfortunately, there aren't any good Rhaegar&Elia fics so I had to write one :)
