    Summary

    "When you're old enough, I'll make you a match with someone who is worthy of you. Someone who's brave and gentle and strong." - Ned Stark to Sansa Stark

    "He was the heart of chivalry, and the soul of wisdom, and came to serve his father most ably as Hand..." - writings of Maester Yandel about Baelor "Breakspear" Targaryen

    ***

    The war for the dawn is lost. With no hope left, Bran and Sansa choose to die by their own hands instead of waiting for the White Walkers and their army of the dead. Breathing his final breaths, Bran flies one last time, meets the Bloodraven and grabs at the last chance he hopes would somehow turn defeat to victory.

But a wrinkle appears when he hears news of Caroline, hears that she's with Tristan, and has been working to keep him down.

    Summary

    The past few moons have not been kind to him. In a few days he’s lost his good sister, has been taken out of the line of succession, and delegated to nothing more but a burden to his brother, and to the rest of the kingdom as well. Even the elation of having been ridden of his horrible marriage to Rhea has been short lived, as his brother annulled one union to just form another. To Otto Hightower’s daughter nonetheless, the very man responsible for the whole mess in the first place.

     

    Truly, perhaps the bride herself was the best part of the marriage.

     

    or: Daemon tries to make the best of his new marriage in an attempt to upset those he thinks responsible for him losing the title of heir, and finds out he might enjoy it more than he thought. Alicent is confused.
