    “I dreamt… many things,” she murmured, eyes turning murky. “The seasons keep turning, and the long summer draws near…”
    “Then, can you tell me?” Rhaella pressed. “What will become of me?”
    The woodswitch raised her head, and her eyes were now clear but full of pity.
    “Knowing will do you no good, princess.”

      This is a great chapter. I loved Aegon’s POV and Jon’s.

      Aegon is great because he mistakes his age for wisdom. He doesn’t see that he’s become an autocrat ruled by his wishes as compassionate as they and he are. What is really damning is he sees the potential now in Rhaella. His response? Sell her off to another House instead of making use of her, even if it is only for a handful of years. And he’s still fixated on his dragon plan, even if he recognizes that it didn’t solve any problems for his predecessors. He’s an excellent character.

      Jon’s emotional disturbance, coupled with talent and sheer grit, come shining through. Ned really has a lot to answer for, not that he should have betrayed the secret but he couldn’t bend enough to tell a small lie that would have saved Jon so much trauma.

      My guess is that when the time comes, Bloodraven won’t make Ned’s mistake. He’ll lie. And Jon will be the better for it.

      This was brilliant! Might be your best work yet. Deeply appreciate the work that goes into these chapters…. even if the wait is always killing me.

      He is training a future Lord of the Realm , a Master of Whisperer in his stead for a the new King or better yet The new King himself
      Walder Frey is up to something as usual
      I guess no dragon for Rhaella then IF Aegon can hatch them, that fair
      Prince Maegor still live ? His father is Aerion “Brightflame” right now that is a potential spy
