Blackwoods and Brackens had always been two houses that hated each other. The hatred between these two houses was so deep-rooted that even though no one could remember how it started, it continued.

Blackwoods' children were raised to hate brackens, and brackens' children were raised to hate blackwoods.

One of the biggest factors currently fueling the hatred between the two houses was the land issue. Both Blackwoods and Brackens claimed that the same land belonged to them.

And the war called the dance of the dragons had merely given the members of these two houses an excuse to freely fight each other. Because House Bracken swore allegiance to King Aegon, House Blackwood to Queen Rhaenyra.

These two houses, which had not been able to agree on anything for thousands of years, were also in conflict on this issue.

You were a member of House Bracken.

Today, you went to the land that the Blackwoods claimed as their own, with a few friends from your household and relatives around your age. You were actually attracting some trouble by going there.

You were joking with your friends, and those who were more inclined to a fight were easily insulting the Blackwoods in the empty land, making you all laugh.

And just as you were blending in with them, making comments about how dishonorable House Blackwood was and how their fake queen, Rhaenyra Targaryen, was a kinslayer, a voice came from behind you.

"Bracken!"

Three boys with House Blackwood crests approached you but the owner of the voice was Davos Blackwood. It was a known fact that Davos, one of the younger members of the Blackwood house, was prone to fighting. He spoke as he looked at you with disgust.

"You're in Blackwood land, bracken."

First he looked at those next to you, and then he slowly approached you. He had a sarcastic grin on his face that looked like it was there to annoy you.

"Aegon Targaryen is no true king, just like you have no right to be here."

He pushed you, clearly wanting to start a conflict.
