Taelon flew Ragnarok to the reach after almost another full moon with Thorin and Rhae. He sent the rest of his traveling companions ahead to the reach.
He slid off Ragnarok and Tommen heard the women swoon.
"Right on time." Taelon remarked. "Let's get this over with."
"That's the spirit!" Tommen declared.
"Lady Tyrell, what an honor. I'm so sorry for the delay." Taelon remarked kissing her hand.
"Oh, that's quite alright..." She assured him.
Taelon listened as the woman boasted about their knowledge of language and knitting, their love of children, some mothers even remarked upon proper child bearing hips for their daughters. Taelon nodded and smiled as Tommen kept his cup full.
"So lovely. All of you, really." Taelon assured. A week of flowers and skimpy dresses and Taelon was ready to leave.
"You used to be more fun." Jaime remarked. "What's gotten into you?"
"Fatherhood changed our Taelon." Tommen remarked.
Perhaps it did. But Taelon knew two things. He wanted to see Thorin and he wanted to go home.
Moon after moon, each region they traveled Taelon was kind and respectful as he declined every woman.

"Anys news from Taelon?" Nyra asked hopefully.
"Another dead end at winterfell it seems." Viserys remarked. "that boy is picky. He fucked his way through the capital but now he is being choosey."
"Perhaps the capital it where the love of his life is?" Nyra offered and Viserys chuckled.
"You know he asked for your hand." Viserys mused and Nyra stared back at him.
"Why didnt you-"
"An odd request." Viserys went on.
"Is it though?" Nyra countered.
"You are still a child." Viserys remarked.
"You married Alicent, she is not older than I." Nyra countered and Viserys stared back at her.
"Well... yes I suppose." Viserys agreed.
"Taelon and I get along great, why... not us?" Nyra pushed.
"To strengthen our allies. Join new houses." Viserys reminded her. "Don't worry. I will find you a match as well."

Rhae had grown quite used to Taelon in her bed. At first when she was to be wed to Daemon she thought marrying a prince, wow, little ole her. But then Daemon was Daemon and Rhae was alone.
She rolled over leaning her chin on Taelon's chest. His hand wrapped around her back.
"Are you going back?" Rhae asked softly.
"I have a new brother." Taelon remarked. "Aegon they named him... father wants me back with an answer... a future queen."
"I understand." Rhae said again.
"I suppose asking you to come back to the capital with Thorin isn't an option?" Rhae kissed his chest before resting her cheek against him. "I'm sorry I put you in this situation."
"I'm not." Rhae countered. "I love Thorin and I loved our time together."
Taelon picked up Thorin and he started babbling immediately.
"You be good for you mama, alright?" Taelon instructed. "I will be back soon I hope."
"No go." Thorin told him shaking his head as Taelon hissed his little head.
"Love you little man." Taelon said putting him back down.
"No go!" Thorin declared hugging Taelon's leg. THorin stood on Taelon's foot as he walked, Thorin clinging on. Taelon chuckled down at him. "NO GO!"
"I don't know Taelon, but you might want to listen to him." Rhae offered.
"I will see you both soon." Taelon assured hugging her. Rhae nodded taking THorin from Taelon. Thorin cried out reaching for Taelon.
"NO GO! NO GO!" Thorin begged. Taelon looked to his little trembling lips.
"Be good for your mama." Taelon said again kissing his little head. "See you soon. Okay? See you soon."
"See ouu soon." Thorin repeated. But Taelon stared back at them. What was he doing? What was he thinking? He moved back across the room and kissed Rhae again.
"My father wanted me to find a bride. I found her." Taelon whispered against her lips.
"You know... you never consummated your marriage to daemon. That's basically like you are not married." Taelon remarked. Rhae stared back at him. "Would you... want to... with me?"
+
Nyra thought that when Taelon came back without a bride that it would be her chance but Taelon seemed different.
"Taelon!" Nyra declared hugging him tight.
"Hey love bug, I missed you." Taelon declared holding onto her. Viserys looked less happy to see him. "Goodness, you have gotten even prettier." Nyra smiled up at him waiting for him to declare her as his bride to be. But he didnt.
"Father." Taelon remarked keeping an arm around Nyra.
"I suspect the lack of communication and no woman on your arm means the tour was unsuccessful." Viserys remarked. "You spent a lot of time in Runestone." Viserys remarked.
"A word, father?" Taelon asked letting Nyra go. "Alone..." Nyra stared back up at him confused. "Be right back." Taelon assured kissing her forehead.
Viserys closed his chamber doors and looked to Taelon's nervous but smiling face.
"What did you do?" Viserys groaned.
''No, no, no, don't give me that look. Father excellent news.'' Taelon exclaimed
''Oh?''
''I found a wife and we were wed and guess what even better, are you ready? I have a son!'' Taelon declared and viserys wide smile slowly dissolved with every word taelon spoke. ''No no keep that smile. This is good news. All good news.''
''You didnt marry a whore did you?" Viserys demanded.
''Father i dont fuck whores. She is a lovely woman.'' Taelon assured. ''You will love her.''
''Who is this lovely new daughter in law?''
''Rhae Royce.'' Taelon declared as he cleared his throat.
''Does the rhae royce i'm thinking of have a sister I dont know about or a cousin?''
''No... it is the rhae royce you are thinking.'' Taelon confirmed
''Taelon-''
''Daemon never consummated it and I fucked her before the tournament and she got pregnant had my child. Hes a handsome lad. I thought you would be proud of me!" Taelon remarked.
''Taelon. Daemon is going to be-''
''He never liked Rhae. I do.'' Taelon countered. ''You heard how he spoke of her. She is a good woman a wonderful mother. My boy, father. You are a grandsire.''
''Taelon-''
''Daemon doesnt care he hasnt been to runestone in years. I have respect for women. I love women-''
''A little too much.'' Viserys grumbled
''I already legitimized thorin.'' Taelon remarked. ''Rhae and Thorin Targaryen.''
''Heavens.'' Viserys muttered.
