Born of the Last Son of King Daeron II, Aenar Targaryen is beloved by the King and Royal Family. Raised by his Uncles, Princes Baelor and Maekar, after the untimely death of his father, Prince Gaemon, at the Redgrass Field, he enjoys a privileged position at court. Having recently returned from exploring Essos, he comes to find many things have changed: his family, his friends, and the realm itself. The fractures of the First Blackfyre Rebellion seem to be rearing their ugly heads once more. Will Prince Aenar be able to mend the family tensions that currently plague House Targaryen, and cause a new rise that rivals the reign of King Jaehaerys the Conciliator? Or will he fall into the dangerous world of politics and lose himself in his desire to return House Targaryen to fame, glory, and see a return of Dragons? Only time will tell.

"Your Highness, as someone who comes from two important bloodlines, I understand the pressure laid upon you better than most," "Are any of them royal, Ser?" "In their own way, Princess. Both have legacies, both are proud, and both are known for their stubbornness," "They sound a lot like my House, Ser." "Oh trust me, Princess, they are more alike than you realise..." ~~~~ Grudges, can last far longer than any mortal, and are carried down bloodlines in the form of stories and songs. Such is the case of Dorne and House Targaryen, since Dorne not only resisted Aegon The Conqueror and his Dragons, but managed to kill Queen Rhaenys Targaryen and her Dragon, Meraxes, with a deadly Scorpion bolt that struck Meraxes in the eye, and caused both Meraxes and Rhaenys to fall to their deaths. Since then, Dorne has fiercely resisted any attempt at unification with the other six Kingdoms, and has repeatedly refused to bend the knee to House Targaryen, resulting in tense relations that have existed ever since Aegon's time. However, Jaehaerys Targaryen "The Conciliator", saw the tensions as unnecessary and needless, and as such, sent his son and heir, Aemon, to Sunspear as an envoy and as a sign of trust. Unfortunately, the negotiations didn't turn out as expected, but one thing that DID happen, was Prince Aemon finding love...in the arms of the Princess of Dorne, Princess Mara Martell... Despite the fact that Aemon was already married and had a daughter, the Prince and Princess truly did love each other, but in the end...Mara saw how much it hurt Aemon to choose between her and his wife. So, Mara made the decision to be the one who let him go, and allowed him to leave Dorne to return to his family. And though Aemon had left, the love between them never stopped burning, and from that love...came a child. Maegor Sand Maegor the Unbroken The Dornish Dragon ~~~~~ I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING.

"I'm a bastard, Nyra. I always was one. Being loved by the Queen does not change that," "Father loves you as well. I see his eyes light up whenever you are talked about," "That light...is not light, my dragoness. It is shame. Shame for what I am. For what he did that resulted in me..." "Mother did not think that way. Neither does father. And...I do not see you as that either, Jae..." ~~~~~~~~~~ Bastards are born of lust, passion, and most of all, shame. Their mere existence is something that brings dishonour on their Father's House, and are often times treated as less than dirt. They say that everything a bastard touches, will rot and die the next day. And in the case of royal Bastards, life is not much better. Jaehaerys Waters. A boy born to Viserys Targaryen, prior to the Prince's marriage to Aemma Arryn, was seen by the court as a symbol of dishonour. A symbol of shame... Being the son of a Targaryen Prince and Serenei of Lys, said to be the most beautiful woman in all of the Seven Kingdoms and the last of a noble Valyrian household, Aemon was born with striking looks, and beautiful white hair. And despite Queen Aemma Arryn showing the boy a mother's love when Serenei did not, Jaehaerys was constantly reminded of his status. And what shame he brought... But even then, bastards can sometimes rise to heights that no one ever even considered. And in the case of Jaehaerys "Dragon Eyes" Waters, whose eyes mimicked that of a fierce Dragon's...he would rise higher than any Dragon, mortal, or bastard ever thought possible. For Aemon may have been born a Waters, but he was, and will always be... A Targaryen... ~~~~~~~~~~~ ALL RIGHTS GO TO THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS, I OWN NOTHING EXCEPT MY OCs.

The South thinks it knows the North. It thinks of frozen roads, poor halls, and grim men in grey cloaks. It is wrong. In the North, the wolves have spent generations preparing for the day the rest of the realm would learn to fear them. Redwatch rises on the western sea like a fortress of winter-rich in silver and iron, guarded by beacon fires, Snow Knights, shield maidens, and fleets built to break raiders in the surf. The North of this story is not weak and not patient. It is a land hardened by old blood and older law, built on one truth above all others: the pack must survive. From that North comes Torrhen Redstark, heir to Redwatch-swift as a striking wolf with twin swords in hand, raised to loyalty so fierce it borders on holy. He is the son of a stronger North, a young warrior taught that courage means standing first, bleeding first, and never leaving one of your own behind. In the South, the storm has its own son. Orys Storm, the recognized bastard of Lord Steffon Baratheon, is born beneath lightning and prophecy, marked by the Omen of the Broken Tower from his first breath. Broad-shouldered and powerful even in youth, he carries the strength and fury of House Baratheon in his blood-too large to ignore, too proud to bow, and far too dangerous to dismiss. When Torrhen Redstark and Orys Storm are sent to the Eyrie beside Ned Stark and Robert Baratheon, four boys from different corners of the realm are forged into something stronger than friendship. They become a pack-and when the Seven Kingdoms begin to tear themselves apart, it will be a wolf from the North and a storm from the South who stand at the heart of the war that changes Westeros forever.

Game of Thrones: Orys Storm is the story of a boy born under lightning-and raised in the eye of power. Recognized at birth by Lord Steffon Baratheon, Orys is not sent away to be hidden. He is raised in Storm's End beside the trueborn heir, Robert Baratheon, with Lady Cassana as the only mother he ever truly knows. The realm still calls him bastard, but inside the castle he is something rarer: a Stormlander son forged by duty, love, and the constant pressure to prove he belongs. Growing up alongside Robert, Orys becomes both brother and shadow-sharing the same halls, the same training yard, the same bruises and laughs, but always carrying the extra weight of his name. Where Robert is thunder and charm, Orys is the hard edge of the storm: disciplined, watchful, and fiercely loyal. Every sneer aimed at his birth turns into fuel, every whispered insult into another hour with sword and shield. When Eddard Stark enters their lives-honor-bound, quiet, unbreakable-Orys finds something he didn't know he needed: a friend who doesn't care what the realm calls him, only what he chooses to be. Between Robert's fire and Ned's iron, Orys learns what it truly means to be a man: strength without cruelty, pride without arrogance, and loyalty that survives politics. As the boys grow into young lords and warriors, the stormlands and the north pull them toward war, alliances, and the brutal reality of Westeros. Orys must fight not only in battles, but in courts and councils where bastards are useful tools-until they become threats. With Storm's End at his back and brotherhood at his side, Orys Storm rises from whispered shame to feared respect, carving his own legend into the history of a realm that never intended to let him matter. It's a tale of blood and brotherhood, of honor tested by power, and of a bastard who becomes a warrior great enough that even kings must speak his name carefully.

Raised in the Red Keep, Cregan Stark, Durran Baratheon, and Orian Baratheon share a bond forged in childhood. Though distinct in their fathers' legacies, they are united by their upbringing. Cregan, the son of honor, possesses a sharp mind and formidable strength, yet his pride can be a double-edged sword but the son of Ned stark. Orian, the son of strength, mirrors his father's imposing presence and carries a strategic intellect reminiscent of the Lannisters but the son of Robert baratheon. Durran, the son of duty, embodies the unwavering principles of his father as in stannis baratheon. Bound by a brotherhood forged in the heart of power, these three young men navigate the intricate web of Westeros. As they come into their own, the expectations of their noble houses and the simmering tensions of the realm weigh heavily upon them. Ambition, loyalty, and the ever-present threat of war will test the strength of their bond. In a land where lineage and power dictate destiny, can the ties of brotherhood endure the trials that lie ahead?
