AEMOND, 126 AC
It was going to be a horrible day, Aemond decided. Much worse than the day he realized his dragon egg was never going to hatch. Worse than when Aegon first started to torment him. Worse than when Rhaenyra's sons hatched their dragons. No, this day was the epitome of terrible days because it was the day that Alayne was leaving.
He'd woken that morning filled with dread, and a pain in his knee besides. It was only the pains of growing, his mother told him when he'd mentioned it at breakfast. No matter what it was, it was annoying.
Aemond did not want to endure the ride in the wheelhouse that morning, nor did he want to bid Alayne farewell. If he could, he'd stow away on the ship and make the journey with her.
The wheelhouse bumped along the rocky cobblestone street of King's Landing, jostling Aemond as he sat next to his brothers and sister. Across from him was Alayne next to his father, who'd insisted he was well enough to come with them.
