Summary
"You're going to ruin me," he texted her at 4:03AM on a Saturday evening. Rhaenyra could swear she heard the desperate cadence of his voice echo around the dark confines of her room. She stared at the New York skyline for what felt like an eternity, fingers resting on her thighs. She dug her nails in, ever so lightly. Attempted to ground herself.
The silence stretched on. Not uncomfortably. Fingers trembling, she took a short breath in.
"Good," she texted back. Tossed her phone halfway across the room, it landed softly on the carpet. Her cheeks heated. A phrase she learned in Latin earlier that week resurfaced in her mind:
"Medio tutissimus ibis - you will go most safely in the middle."
Neither of them had ever been good at safe. Or finding a middle ground.

how to marry your niece to a decent man (a guide by hobert hightower) by laufeysan

Summary
What else was an uncle to do, when a suitable match for his niece lay no farther than a short voyage by sea? It was worth the attempt, was it not? Better to guide such a union himself than allow his brother to wed away the only maiden of their house without counsel.
Old ties, ancient blood and a shared descent from the Great Empire of the Dawn made the match all the more fitting.
He had married his niece to a decent man, Hobert Hightower thought.
[Daemon Targaryen, famously, could not relate.]

Summary
That same night, on the eve of Aegon ii Targaryen's second name day, the gods unveiled the curtain of the future through dreams to Visery and Rhaenyra. Visery, who had always tried to avoid conflict and was already married to Alicent, made what he considered the wisest choice. He disinherited Rhaenyra and made Aegon his heir. Rhaenyra, who had seen her future as nothing more than a chain of tragedies, accepted her father's decision.
Unable to bear being in the red keep and pretending to be a happy family with people who usurped her, Rhaenyra chose to live in the Vale, with her late mother's family. But it seems that Visery's decision to disinherit Rhaenyra and Rhaenyra's decision to live in the Vale also changed the future of the Targaryen family. Because ever since Rhaenyra stepped her foot out of the red keep with the resolution to never return, the dragon eggs, both the new ones and the ones in the dragon pit all turns cold, and the dragons weakened.

Summary
Otto Hightower felt the cold blade cut into his neck. Blood gushed out, hot and red, his head staining the stone floor of the Red Keep. the scene unfolded before my eyes, in realistic detail.
He had fought to the end. But the strength of Rhaenyra and her dragons was relentless. The fortress he had so longed to control had fallen, and with it, his dream of power.
His eyes soon closed, but the darkness did not envelop him. A strange force pulled at him.

Summary
Excerpt
I'm a Hand. With a young blonde beautiful daughter, who's somewhat connected to he king. Well, that reduces the camp... to at least two names.
So what's my preferite death? Beheaded or a dart in my bowels? The second one at least should be avoidable. Just not frame your own son for a crime he didn't commit. There was only a little drawback: what if Tyrion's role in Essos was pivotal to the future of Westeros? The fat one didn't even finished the books. Saving his skin just to die by a severe case of Whitewalkers didn't seem the best of the affairs.
“Viserys appreciated greatly my readings. - said the girl - But you... How are you faring, father? It's not you, staying in your nightdresses at this time of day.”
Viserys. Abort line of thought. No Whitewalkers. No Nightking. Only the Dance. The fucking Dance of Dragons.English isn't my first language. Constructive comments are well accepted.

Summary
Corría el nuevo año y el inicio de una aparente estación primaveral, cuando la invitación para hacer una visita a la enigmática Rocadragón llegó a manos de la Familia Real. Y a ojos de la intrigada Corte, nadie celebró más la noticia, y de forma pública además, que el Rey Viserys Targaryen; El Pacifico.
La invitación venía de la parte de la mismísima princesa Rhaenyra. La Desheredada. La silenciosa. La célebremente ausente. La invitación venía de parte de la misma princesa a la que Aemond nunca, en todos sus años de vida, había conocido. Pues si bien sabía que era su medio hermana, a Aemond se le antojaba más un mito. Un cuento y una advertencia para asustarlo antes de ir a dormir. Pero ahora, la noche antes de partir a los dominios de esa misma princesa, se detuvo a reflexionar a profundidad sobre ella en la privacidad de su pequeño y aseado solar.

Summary
The Seven Kingdoms teeter on the brink of civil war. With King Viserys’ health fading, factions rise within the Targaryen dynasty. At the heart of the conflict lies Otto Hightower, whose schemes have placed his daughter Alicent and her firstborn son, Aemond, in a bid for the Iron Throne. Alicent is as cunning as she is ruthless, and with Otto's guidance, Aemond stands ready to claim his birthright by any means necessary.
Opposing them is Rhaenyra, the king’s declared heir, fiercely clinging to the power of her dragons and the 'superiority' of her bloodline.
The realm is already divided. Lords whisper in dark corners, waiting to declare their loyalty - to the Greens, who gather behind Alicent and her son, or to the Blacks, who would follow Rhaenyra. Bloodlines stretch across the kingdoms, binding lords and ladies to the fate of the Targaryens.When the flames of war are ignited, Otto Hightower will ensure that his family stands triumphant over the ashes. In this deadly game, the dragons may roar, but it is the ruthless ambition of the Hightowers that will shape the fate of the realm.
