    Summary

    The thing about Princess Rhaenys Targaryen is: there are stories
    Stories and whispers, speculation and hearsay; they speak of thrones and queens and ghosts and treasons, speak of secrets meant to remain unheard.
    Speak of things that were laughably untrue. The Sun Princess, plotting for the crown? What an absurd idea.

    (People always did underestimate kind and gentle Crown Princess Elia’s daughter, timid and quiet Queen Rhaella’s granddaughter— a fatal mistake.)

    Alternatively,
    Rhaenys Targaryen sees her brother dead, her mother burned alive, and Lyanna Stark stepping over their corpses to secure her crown and her son Aegon (parasitic whore, how dare she call the worm her brother’s name).

    Rhaenys Targaryen learns that her father is too gone in his prophecies and lamentations and regrets to bother about the realm, a realm that is itching for another rebellion.

    Rhaenys Targaryen finds an opportunity of vengeance for Princess Elia and for little Egg, and if she finds a crown on her head, well, you know what they say,
    Traitors are only traitors if they lose. If they win, the throne is theirs.

    Summary

    As Robert's Rebellion came to a close, two brothers made promises to their sisters. Rhaenys Targaryen survived the Mountain, unbeknownst to all except her closest kin. Raised in Dorne, as one of Oberyn's daughters, Rhaenys wears a new name, one that haunts her for reasons she's buried deep. Elia. As another war looms, Elia Sand is forced to navigate uncomforting truths and acknowledge the dragon that lives on in her blood.

     

    Perhaps it would be his brother, Doran, to put that crown on Elia’s head, perhaps even Jon Connington or Barristan Selmy, for all of those tired old men were chomping at the bit to do it, yet if the history books remembered the right of it, they'd cite Robb Stark as having given her the crown. They'd name him three things. The Young Wolf. The King from the North. The Queenmaker.

    Summary

    You’re certain there must be a few contraband copies hidden away in the Red Keep, shorter versions – wedged into corners of the library you’ve never known to peer into before, tucked behind the dresses of the ladies at court or beneath the thin pallets of the serving maids. Or perhaps they’re not really frowned upon, perhaps they’re not illicit at all, all these Cautions for Young Girls. Perhaps half the literate population has read some variation.

    But not you. Not a princess.

    Gods forbid.

    Summary

    One day, in 1989, a girl is inexplicably born with what some would call very abnormal abilities. Shortly after birth she is given up to a man named Sir Reginald Hargreeves who is on a quest to adopt as many as these strange children as he can. He only is able to get his hands on 8 of them...

    -I basically rewrote the entire first season of the show "The Umbrella Academy" and added in an 8th child. I hope you enjoy the read!-
