The name Targaryen was more of a curse for him than Maegor ever was. It followed him around like a shadow, brought with it a stink of death, and burned him from the inside where his blood ran through his veins. Diluted, yet dragonlord all the same. Maegor Targaryen, Lord of Runestone, despised it more than anything.
He hated what it brought; an arrogant, sneering silver-haired prince, a lifeless egg, duty he did not ask for, expectations he could not fill. For all his suffering, Maegor only wished to stay at the seat of his mother's house all his life.
But that was not meant to be, as shortly after his nineteenth nameday, the Stranger visited the Royce lands in the form of the Rogue Prince and his dragon. The Lady Rhea was found dead, bleeding from a skull. All whispered she was set upon by bandits, who roamed the rolling hills around Runestone and found any target they wanted, regardless of rank.
But Maegor knew it to be false. He had seen it, had watched his own father murder his mother. He could not save her then, but as misery and hopelessness curdled inside him and turned to rage, he sought only vengeance.
In King's Landing, a city infested with cruelty and political schemes, he found an unlikely ally in Otto Hightower and his daughter.
