There was peace in Viserys Targaryen’s lifetime, that much was certain— but the man was no saint.

Rhaenyra had believed herself to be an only child, as it was what she’d been brought up to believe. But when she came of age, Daemon entrusted her with a certain piece of information she’d not been privy of.

She had a sister. A half-sister residing in Highgarden, about the same age as her.

At first, Rhaenyra had called Daemon’s bluff, but naturally, she grew curious.

She even went as far as to question Alicent, who squirmed under Rhaenyra’s inquisitive gaze— but confirmed the rumors.

There was, in fact, a Targaryen girl residing in Highgarden, a bastard brought up alongside Alicent’s older brother, Gwayne.

It was true. Rhaenyra had a half-sister.

So, one afternoon, Rhaenyra and Syrax took to the skies, making a short trip to Highgarden to search for her.
