CHAPTER 4- The Dragon's plan
Daemon POV
266 AC
It has been two years since I have come into this world. I think back about how I behaved when I first got to know that I was in the world of planetos. Unlike other protagonists who get cheats I never got one. Damn the ROB who sent me here.
Alas, as they say there is no point crying over spilt milk. All I can do is to adapt and plot my way to power, which is what I have done for the past year. Last year I waited for a month before I finally enacted my "MasterPlan" . The first step was becoming rhaegar's confidant. It was pretty easy, since the first word which I said in the world was his name, It guaranteed my spot forever in his good books, Unless I fuck it up in a major way. God, I hope going through puberty again does not make me do anything stupid.
The second part of my masterplan was getting myself a bodyguard. Luckily for me I had a numerou option's. But I chose the one who survived two wars , fought in a different continent and was loyal to a fault. Ladies and gentleman the person I chose was none other than the chuck norris of westeros , Ser Barristan fucking Selmy, a certified badass. Despite being 60 namedays old when the story starts he was a deadly killer. Let rhaegar have his "Sword Of The Morning" while I will have "The Bold".
It was pretty easy to become close to him since he always used to accompany rhaegar whenever he used to come and visit me. I would call out to him , make him carry me around and made him play games with us. He tried to correct me many times while saying that his name was barristan,but I never listened since I liked the nickname which I had given him.
After acquiring the undying loyalty of my minions, sorry I meant my brother and Barry the next part involved In acquiring knowledge . God bless the little brat . Once I said the word "book" he ran to the library with barristan and brought a shit ton of books, after which he started reading them to me. Thus I acquired my source of knowledge about this world. Despite my plan being absolutely amazing there were some hiccups.
When my mother got to know that rhaegar was reading books for me she tried to dissuade him from doing that saying that I could not understand any of it , but he came In clutch with his cuteness saying that I was the one who told him to and gave me a mischievous smile , she just sighed and did not speak of it again. But this incident was nothing compared to what would happen in a few years time.
Another thing which pissed me of to no end was that when I got to know that despite me spending time with Barry, he was not made my official sworn shield. It was none other than Ser Harlan Grandison. The man would die in the year 281 AC of old age. Even 15 years prior to his death , he looks like a fossil. So I did what any child does when he does not get what he wants, Crying. A lot of crying . It was when I started crying I realized that I have a very loud voice. I am pretty sure half of the keep knew I was crying. Mary that good soul tried to stop me but I would only stop crying when I saw barry. And when he left I would start crying again. It took a week for the numbnuts to understand what I wanted. And to my great joy my absentee father allowed It , And Barry was made my sworn shield.
Now with barry and rhaegar by my side i moved on to the next part of the plan. Exposure. In my two years of existence in this planet. Most of the time was spent in my room, so I had to do something. That is where barry came in , I would force him to let me hold his sword but he would always decline . No matter how many times I asked him , he would never get angry , what a nice man. Then just like I had planned he grew tired and asked me whether wanted to go and see the kingsguard and men at arms practice. Hearing that I nodded vigorously and he gave me a fatherly smile and seeing that made my heart warm. He truly loved me.
The less said about the servants the better. They really adored me and since I would always smile at them, It made them like me more. Perks of being a baby I guess.
So for the past year my routine involved getting up in the morning, eating some kind of porridge since I still was not ready for solid food, going and seeing the kingsguard and men at rams train, listen to rhaegar read, eating lunch, taking a nap(damn this body), learning to run without falling headfirst, playing with barry and rhaegar , eating dinner and then sleeping.

Great Hall Of The Red Keep
As the celebration of my name day was going on I was busy salivating at the various dishes being brought forth by the servants just wishing for the years to pass by quicker so that I could finally eat to my heart's content Instead of that worthless gruel which does not taste good. While I was busy dreaming about all the wonderful things I would get to eat , Tywin Lannister got up with his spoon lightly hit his chalice and announced,"Today is a momentous day since It is not only the start of the new year but also the second name day of prince daemon. But before drinking for his good health I would like to announce that I too am going to become a father just like his grace and that is why in a month I will be leaving for Casterly Rock to be with my wife."
Hearing the proclamation everyone started clapping as loudly as possible and for the second time In my life I saw tywin lannister smiling. While everyone was busy clapping I turned towards my father and started giggling since his face turned sour before I could say 'lemon'.
Well It looks like the alabama twins of westeros are about to be born in a few months. God save my soul.
