The Last Sea King

Daemon Velaryon ascended as Lord of the Tides and Master of Driftmark on his tenth name day, inheriting a house that had seen its power wane in the wake of Robert's Rebellion. A warrior of exceptional skill, he was counted among the greatest fighters in the realm surpassed only by Ser Barristan Selmy and Ser Jaime Lannister. Yet it was not only his sword that made him formidable; Daemon possessed one of the keenest minds in Westeros, a man as shrewd in council as he was deadly in combat.

In the aftermath of the rebellion, House Velaryon had fallen from grace, its influence diminished and its name spoken with less reverence than in the days of old. But under Daemon's rule, that changed. Forging alliances, expanding trade, and strengthening his fleet, he spent a decade restoring his house to prominence. By his nineteenth name day, House Velaryon stood as the third richest house in Westeros, its ships once again dominating the Narrow Sea.

On the eve of his twentieth name day, a raven arrived from Winterfell. Lord Eddard Stark extended an invitation, offering a marriage pact between Daemon and his daughter, Sansa Stark a union that could bind the North and the Velaryon fleet in blood and loyalty.
