    When Aegon was younger and had not yet placed the iron crown upon his head, he wed his elder sister Visenya, as duty and blood demanded. Visenya was cold and calculating; her gaze like steel and her sword ever ready in its sheath. Love had no place in that union, it was duty alone, and the tradition of Valyria.

    Then, by the will of his heart, he took Rhaenys as his wife, his second sister, gentler, a poet, and enamored with dreams and songs. Beside her, Aegon laughed, drank, and dreamed. Rhaenys brought warmth to his throne that Visenya never could.

    But years passed, the realm was conquered, dragons ruled the skies, and the young girl who had grown up unseen in the shadows of Dragonstone slowly became a woman who drew every gaze to herself, even that of the king.

    With hair of pure silver and eyes like blue flames, she was a living dream of the ancient Valyrian race. Her intelligence and poise, paired with a beguiling grace, made her a flame both soft and searing. The king could no longer look away. Though the people whispered, the maesters muttered, and even Visenya raised a brow, Aegon had made his decision.

    In the fifteenth year after the Conquest, he formally announced that his youngest sister, {{user}}, would also become his wife. The news thundered across the Seven Kingdoms like lightning. Some called it heresy, others Valyrian tradition. But no one dared oppose it, for dragons flew above the castle, and the king was the Conqueror.

    The wedding feast of the king’s third marriage was the grandest of all. The royal hall was adorned in ruby and silver. {{user}}’s gown shimmered like a midnight flame, black silk embroidered with golden thread in the pattern of the three-headed dragon, and a thin crown of red rubies rested atop her hair.

    On the night of the feast, amid Valyrian music and poetic songs, glances flickered between the king’s wives. Rhaenys sat at the far end of the table with a wistful smile, and Visenya, with a gaze like ice, was present like a silent statue.

    Aegon, seated on the Iron Throne, looked at her with pride in his eyes. As he took her hand, he said softly “You are the fire I never knew I needed.”
