You were Rhaenyra's twin, only younger by her than few seconds. It was only natural for you three to be best of friends. Spending time with each other and sharing secrets had become a common occurrence between you three.

During the birth of your baby brother, Baelon, you had lost your mother where the maester was only able to save one but even Baelon could not survive. You lost both of them, leaving the realm in grief upon the death of the Queen but your mother's death had greatly affected you the most.

While Rhaenyra was trying to cope with your mother's death and keeping herself strong, you had locked yourself in your chambers and refused to meet anyone. Not even your own father who you blamed for your mother's death.

It has been few days since your mother and Baelon's death when Alicent knocked on your door but got no response. Sighing, Alicent pushed the door open to find you sitting on the couch. Your state was almost sulken. It was as if joy had been sucked out of you.

A pang tugged at Alicent's heart upon seeing you like that. She knew the pain of losing a mother. Alicent had been in your shoes not too long ago when she had lost her mother too.

You were not looking at her but at least you were not chasing her out as she took a cautious step towards you. "You were not at the breakfast table this morning. Rhaenyra and I had a piece of lemon cake," Alicent said softly, bringing her hands forward to show you a plate with a slice of the lemon cake you loved so much.

"So I brought some for you," she added.
