    Summary

    Ryong arched her eyebrows. Phyre had that vague half smile again. The air around her was always a few degrees colder, the shadows always a little deeper. When she touched things, they seemed to lose a bit of their color. She was, for the lack of a better word, terrifying. And beautiful. Impossibly beautiful. Ryong happened to be into women, and into power, and guiltily into the Ventrue versus Lasombra animosity, that more often than not manifested as undertones of sexual tension.
    It just so happened that Phyre was all that into a single cursed package.

    “I thought the Lasombra were supposed to be a clan of elitists.”

    “You wound me, my Prince.”

    Summary

    Two hundred years had flashed through her eyes. Battles won and lost, great men and women and monsters born and killed, thrones inherited and usurped. The wheel would spin and the circle would repeat itself again and again until in the end, Darkness and Death consumed everything.
    Darkness and Death, which she herself once experienced before, and which she is tasked to prevent.
    Mysaria still does not know how she can accomplish that.

     

    or, Mysaria gets a second chance to help Rhaenyra win the war, but changing things is not so easy.

    Summary

    Alicent says a silent prayer to the Gods as she walks into the lake, the cold that bites at her waist until her body grows numb, and she can no longer shiver. She prays for her children, for Rhaenyra and her sons to rest peacefully. Alicent begs the Gods have mercy to forgive her, if not for herself, than to not allow them to suffer. She embraces the touch of death as she plunges below the water, and her lungs scream for air, until she no longer has the energy to fight.

     

    She expects there to be pain, for she deserves it, but there is only calm and darkness as she closes her eyes and embraces the stranger.

     

    But the Gods are horribly cruel, and Alicent opens her eyes once more.

    --

    The gods give unto Alicent both a blessing and a curse-- she is a child again and Rhaenyra is alive, an alpha, and it only seems to torture her more.

    Summary

    With the war going badly, Mysaria is desperate to prevent her queen from losing faith. Yet the omega's motives are not entirely political and as Rhaenyra's confidence in herself grows, so does the bond between them. Arrogance, though, can be as dangerous as despair, and the two will have to be careful if they are to survive the Dance of the Dragons.
