Chapter 32

Nymor of smart enough to try to appease the Starks and Targaryen's first instead of Eragon, since he doesn't know what to give a person who is a King, immortal, rich, and is going to get married soon. But this was a very good plan as the pact between Dorne and Targaryen's was that until there alliance is solidified with marriage, Dorne will remain independent.Nymor even subtly hinted he wanted to give a betrothal contract for his future daughter or granddaughter to the Starks in the future.

While thing was happening Targaryen's now had a very stable reign over Westeros, but now the issue came with Aegon's children, Maegor while talented as his father with a sword, he showed signs of cruelty at a young age and didn't show any empathy to anyone except his mother and father.

Aegon with time started showing signs of aging, the same can be said for his wives. But they kept a very healthy relationship with Starks, Eragon, and Gandalf. Now he was in Kingslanding, the castle looking at Aegon getting his backside treated.

Eragon chuckled and said, "I told you a throne made of swords would not be a great idea, but you were the one who said it would be amazing."

Aegon winced and replied, "Yes, I really thought it was a good idea at that time."

Rhaenys and Visenya were amused by this, while Eragon smiled and said"Valinor is open to people now, every 30 years some of the people can journey there."

Aegon, Rhaenys, and Visenya hearing this was shocked and excited after all these three visited Middle Earth, and let's just say, their minds were blown and they also heard stories about many things in Middle Earth, one of them was Valinor the famous Land of the Valar. It was said to be Only people allowed by the Valar could sail there by the Straight Road.

Visenya and Rhaenys wanted to see Valinor after hearing about it from Arwen, the girls got along quite well.

Also, Aegon questioned, "When is this journey happening?"

Eragon answered"In a month, we are taking some of the common folk in North too. Also, the Starks are coming."

Rhaenys hearing about Starks asked, "So Lena is also coming."

Eragon knew Lena was the apple of Aegon and Rhaenys eyes, Aegon even confessed if not for his shaky ground with Faith of seven, he would have made Lena his heir.

Eragon smiled gave the nod and replied, "Yes, she has been traveling through Middle Earth with Eldric for some time now."

Visenya with an envious look muttered, "I envy her a lot."

Eragon knew Lena was happy, while Rhaneys asked"What about Anduin?"

Anduin Stark, son of Lena and Eldric Stark now studying swordsmanship under Finrod and would be considered the most talented swordsman in history. Eragon smiled and replied, "He joins his mother and father on their trips from time to time, so he is good too."

Aegon and Rhaenys nodded,they wanted to meet there grandson again. As Eragon changed the subject"How is Maegor and

Aenys?"

All three frowned now, Aegon sighed and said"Aenys is the same kindhearted and courteous boy. But he wants to be loved by everyone and always trying to please everyone."

Rhaenys added"He made friends easily, but he also trusted everyone and allowed himself to be easily influenced. He was a dreamer."

Visenya with slight pride said"Maegor was a born warrior whose skill with weapons was unmatched. He lived for war, tourneys, and battle, and rose to become one of the youngest and finest knights of his time." she paused with slight disappointment and sadness continued" he was also a hard and brutal sometimes taking things too far."

Aegon nodded and said"True,Maegor is quarrelsome, quick to take offense, slow to forgive, and fearsome in his wroth. He is rigid unyielding, and unbending."

Rhaenys sighed and said"We already discussed this, we can't let Maegor have the crown he is too bloodthirsty,I really wished it was not this way. But he scares me sometimes."

This was change in rule of succession originally thr oldest always takes the lordship or kingship.But because of suggestion from Gandalf the rule was changed and many were okay with it.So this obviously made Maegor belive he had a chance to be the King.But this was foreseen by Aegon,Visenya and Rhaenys.They didn't want Maegor to rule,since they could see the madness in him and chances of him becoming a tyrant was huge.

Rhaenys looks at Visenya, who gave a sad smile, after all which mother wants to hear that, while Eragon said"I know Maegor is highly loyal to his mother and respects his father,but that is all the emotional connections he has."

Visenya looked at her hands in sadness and said"True, he doesn't have any true friends."

Visenya for the past years has been trying to temper his need for aggression, but it was not working.She had seen the look he had given her when she was going against him.

The survival of Rhaenys created a ripple, unlike the original timeline where Aegon and Visenya's relationship strained after her death, with Aegon mourning Rhaenys and the same with Visenya who became distant from everyone else.In the original timeline she was an avid supporter of her son's unsurping to the throne and was unable to see his faults or recognize them. But here all three are mentally well and were able to recognize the signs,Visenya was saddened by how her son turned out.
