the bear and the dragon fair - hotd au.

aemond meets gwyn mormont when both boys are 8 years old. gwyn, a squire for ser criston, quickly becomes the only true friend aemond has.

years growing together make them as close as men can be, and even after gwyn is sent back to his home on bear isle, their bond is enough to change the dance entirely.

or: aemond has someone in his corner now, and makes his own faction for the dance.
