Summary
These hands are quick, with practice and time.
With a little patience and a bit of suffering, Helaena was never afraid to undo the threads, not when she realized the mistake and could see the embroidery, perfectly made in her minds eye.
And Heleana has seen much. Has lived and died and been made anew. Could she not stitch something new for herself?
The war will come. The dragons will dance. But Helaena does not intend to fall alongside them. Not if she can help it. If she can help her half sister ascend the throne then she might just keep her family safe from themselves.
And if she has to betroth herself to Jacaerys Velaryon to do so then she hopes her mother won't scream herself mad too much.

Summary
Born of fire and stone, Baelor Targaryen was raised between a father who hardened him through distance and a mother who taught him that gentleness could still be power. The realm saw a fair and patient son, never noticing how easily kindness could become something dangerous. Even as doubt grew, Baelor clung to a fragile loyalty to his father, until his mother’s suspicious death fractured it and forced him to learn the cost of trust.
At court stood Rhaenyra Targaryen, feared by many and burdened by isolation. What began as distance slowly shifted into recognition, then into something neither of them fully understood, until they were bound together in a marriage neither truly trusted. Surrounded by whispers and betrayal, they came to realize that they might be the only ones willing to stand beside each other.
But in a world where love was seen as weakness and power demanded cruelty, what did that choice cost them? Did Baelor ever truly let go of the loyalty that shaped him, or did it destroy what he tried to build with her? And when it mattered most, did they choose each other or themselves?

Summary
“One spool of green turns black, but the dragons of flesh shall still roar if provoked.”
Viserys takes up Rhaenyra's offer of betrothing Jacaerys and Helaena after the unfortunate incident between Aemond and Lucerys. One marriage alone isn't enough to prevent the coming storm, but said storm goes very differently. Especially when it comes to Rhaenyra's eldest son and Alicent's daughter.
(Spoilers for Fire and Blood if you haven't read that.)
