When the Lord of Dreams is captured, Morpheus fears for his realm, for without him the Dreaming will wither. But he is not as alone as he believes. Waiting for him is Hemera, the Primordial Goddess of the Day, his queen, his opposite and his eternal bond. Hemera, first-born of Night and Darkness, is the light that follows shadow, the bringer of dawn and day to mortals and the ruler of the Day Realm. Though tied to Dream in a marriage, theirs is no love story, at least not yet. Duty binds them, balance defines them. ⚠️ Note for readers: In Greek mythology, many primordial beings share the same origin, but they are not "siblings" in the human sense. Hemera is not an endless. Morpheus and her both descend from primordial entities, but they are not family their connection is cosmic, not incestuous.

From the moment she first saw the Prince of Dragonstone, Jocelyn Dondarrion had loved him with the certainty of lightning striking stone. In the aftermath of the Blackfyre Rebellion, she begged her father for the match-and he granted it. So when word came that Baelor Targaryen was to wed a Dondarrion, Jocelyn believed the Seven had answered her prayers. But Baelor, upon hearing the betrothal, imagined it was Jena he would be bound to-only to learn that he had been promised not to the sister he loved, but the one who loved him instead.
