King's Landing, the Crownlands
130 AC
The smallfolk continued on their day to day business even as the war waged around them. They saw how Vhagar and Sunfyre left and only Vhagar returned with Aemond and the horribly injured Aegon.
How Dreamfyre did not return to King's Landing, how the beloved Helaena had openly declared for the Blacks.
Then came the messengers from Rhaenyra. Expressing her desire to take King's Landing with little to no smallfolk casualties, asking them to open the gates.
The smallfolk talked. And as the Hightower men began to treat them cruelly, the word spread:
Open the gates for the one true queen.
And when dragons appeared in the sky, when the Black army was seen marching for the gates, the smallfolk threw them open.
So that was the plan: win over the smallfolk and get them to open the gates.
I suck with battle scenes, so this is the best I got. I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
