00. the realm's joy
NOT LONG AFTER PRINCESS RHAENYRA MARRIED ser Leanor Velaryon, she gave birth to their first child, a daughter. They named her Viserra, after Old King Jaehaerys' and good Queen Alysanne's sixth daughter who was told to be the greatest beauty in the realm.The birth had not been easy, for it was the Princess' first time laboring, and she had agonized about if for all the months of her pregnancy. The Princess' own lady mother, Queen Aemma, had perished in child bed herself and it had frightened Rhaenyra ever since. But, when Rhaenyra looked in the eyes of her daughter and saw her own staring right back at her, she knew it was worth it. She knew then, she would do anything if it meant keeping this tiny babe safe.
Being King Viserys' first grandchild, he was perhaps even more excited about Viserra's birth than he was about the birth of his own young children with his second wife, Queen Alicent. As a grandfather and as King, he doted on the little girl, just as he had his daughter.
Viserra's future loomed ahead, but it appeared to be nothing but bright, for the girl brought only joy to those in her presence. As she grew up in King's Landing, along her younger brothers, aunt and two uncles, she became known as "the Realm's Joy", if only it had lasted.
