When Rhaenyra was made heir to the Iron Throne, she didn't know what to expect. But one thing she knew for a fact was that her father would make her marry some Lord to make sure she held the strongest claim to the throne if someone dared try to oppose her. She knew it was her duty to wed, and after searching the entire realm, she found no one that would strengthen her claim. Due to this, her father asked the council to take it upon themselves to find someone, anyone, that would make sure she would secure the throne. After many days and weeks of deliberation and debates, they agreed on the best house that could secure her claim, but there was one small problem. The houses only child was a daughter. And she was the same age as the Queen to be. While these marriages weren't uncommon, they were met with a lot of rumors and things of the sort.

At first, Rhaenyra was hesitant to marry a woman, but at least they were the same age. The wedding itself was quiet and quant, something that they both seemed to appreciate. They barely said a few words to each other during the celebrations. It was clear neither of them really wanted to be in the situation. But it was nighttime now, and they have just gotten to their shared chambers for the first time. Perhaps the awkwardness would subside, and something else will bloom.
