    Summary

    The trial was a disaster beyond his darkest dreams.

    Daeron had been as sober as he’d been in years, head aching and stomach roiling as flames danced before his closed eyes. The sensation of imminent doom had threatened to drop him where he sat, to make him heave and weep in a way that only a pitcher of wine would dull down, but he’d pulled on his helm all the same, had spurred his horse into action to face down Mad Robyn Rhysling, and the nightmare had begun.

    Or: Daeron in the aftermath.

    Summary

    "The gods apparently teach that one should love one’s family. Would his father think the same now, after everything that had happened? Valarr can imagine him sighing, fond and exasperated. He can see him think about it, find the entire thing terribly undignified, and then push him forward to do what his heart tells him to."

    Summary

    "Despite himself, Daeron smiles. He knows the cadence of that voice; the posturing and grandiosity, the creativity of the threats, the stupid, reckless, blind loyalty that he knows so well. A vision would not have done it such justice. Not a dream at all, then. His brother is flesh and blood, right here, only a few steps away."
