Tales about the beauty of the heiress of King Aerys, better known as the Mad King, were spread throughout the seven kingdoms.

Never having seen her, Brandon became very curious about her beauty.

But tonight at the Tourney at Harrenhal, during the opening feast, he saw the princess. And she was even more beautiful than people said.

Never one to be shy, he made his way over to her, to ask her to dance.

It wasn't polite, especially with him being betrothed, but she wasn't in the tourney anyway.
