In the turbulent years leading up to the Dance of the Dragons, Naerys Targaryen, the youngest daughter of King Viserys and Queen Aemma, returns to the Red Keep after years of exploring the world. She brings with her Gaelithox, a wild and formidable dragon, and a spirit unbound by the politics of court life. Amidst the rising tensions between the greens and the blacks, Naerys finds herself caught in a web of alliances and rivalries that threaten to tear her family apart. Betrothed to her half-brother Aemond as part of a strategy to solidify the greens' power, she must navigate her own desires and fears while determining her place in the struggle for the Iron Throne.
