    Jaehaerys felt slightly dizzy, as if he had drunk wine and was becoming intoxicated. He looked at Rhaegar's cup with some suspicion. If he had added poison to it, he would have ended up poisoning himself. "How interesting," said the prince as he sat down. "Is the cup a magical artifact? Or is...

    The Golden Maiden was the victim of a fire. The septons began preaching about the fury of the Seven against debauchery and degeneration. There were no deaths, only injuries from burns. That left room for speculation about who had caused it; it seemed like someone generous who felt guilty about...

    Night fell, and the yellow color of Lannisport dimmed. Only slightly, though; it would not disappear completely, even if the sun went out. The Golden Maiden A giant golden sign outside a big building. Men entered carrying bags full of coins and always left carrying less. Jaehaerys did not...

    "Someone tried to kill my granddaughter, Rhaegar!" Rhaella shouted at her son. The king remained silent, although no one missed the vein that stood out on his forehead. The tournament almost turned into tragedy when Jaehaerys' daughter nearly lost her life. "A bastard child. Don't let people...

    The melee was fast and frantic. It took only a few minutes before most of the men were out of action. At first, Jaehaerys held back a little with his rivals, not wanting to draw too much attention to himself. But later, it wasn't necessary. In the end, two of his men remained: Brandon and the...

    Finally, a man took down the names and appearances of each of the participants who would fight tomorrow in the Melee. The prince was among them. "You want to maintain the appearance of a mysterious knight, eh?" said the man, looking at him suspiciously. "The men will go after you, you know, you...

    "Fall back!" said Lyn Corbray, obeying Brynden's order. The men began to saunter, climbing up the hillside. Soon Jaehaerys saw men lying on the ground where Brynden's men had been before. The fallen, wounded men withdrew, those who could, carrying other men with them. Those were the rules; in...

    The melee had to be held in a large field---almost thirty acres. The stands had been built on top of a mountain, although it was unlikely that the lords would be able to entertain themselves. According to the instructions, once about 100 men remained, the melee would end and resume the next day...

    "Absurd, absurd, he's my son. Do you think I would hurt my own son?" Queen Rhaella looked at Brandon, who was guarding the prince's door. "These are Princess Daenerys' orders. If anything happens to Jaehaerys, don't let anyone in to see him except the maester who is attending him. No...

    Jaehaerys had decided to participate in the jousting tournament. Half a million gold dragons. He could obtain them with a fair degree of certainty. The matches would be one-on-one. The first and second days had been the most boring for Jaehaerys. His opponents were not the best and posed no...

    Rhaegar looked up and down the stands, searching among the boxes for his brother. He had invited him to sit with him; he needed to see him up close, to keep an eye on him. Perhaps even slip some sweet poison into his drink. Although, according to Varys, Jaehaerys had given up his drinking habit...

    Lord Lydden was found dead in a tavern, his head seemingly crushed with a mace. Jaehaerys did not care about his death. At that moment, he was spending time with his daughter, reading a letter from his wife, Daenerys. His mother had brought it to him. His wife had rejected the idea of going to...

    "You didn't have to do that, you know?" Jaehaerys said to the princess. He wasn't terrified of the trial; he could always request a trial by combat, just as he ended up having to fight in the end. It was foolish, really; Rhaegar was looking for any excuse to screw him over. "I already did it...

    Jaehaerys stood in front of his brother and a group of lords who looked at him with fear, contempt, and pity. He should have seen it coming. Tywin wanted two things: to control his daughter or to kill him during the tournament. So far, he had achieved neither; he would have to solve the problem...

    The royal family arrived three days after the Stark family, a week before the tournament began. Lannisport was becoming even more bustling. Lord Stark was grateful to see a little more color than golden heads. "And you will accept, Ned?" asked Greatjon Umber at his side. He was someone who had...
