THE DRAGON'S HEART IS MINE

"The dream...it was clearer than a memory.
And I heard the sound of thundering hooves, splintering shields and ringing swords. And I placed my heir upon the Iron Throne, and all the dragons roared as one."

~ King Viserys Targaryen

"If I'm to choose between one evil and another, then I prefer not to choose at all. But when I say 'I love you', it's not because I want you or because I can't have you. It has nothing to do with me. I love what you are, what you do, how you try. I've seen your kindness and your strength. I've seen the best and worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity exactly what you are. You're a hell of a woman. You're the one, Alicent.

                  ~ Geralt Targaryen

"Brother, with you as heir and I your Princess Consort, your claim would not be so easily challenged. The Velaryons are of the sea. But you and I are made of fire We have always been meant to burn together."

                ~ Rheanyra Targaryen

"Where is duty? Where is sacrifice? It's trampled under your pretty foot again."

                 ~ Alicent Hightower

"Think for yourself. It'll save you a lifetime of heartbreak."

                ~ Yennefer Martell

"Dreams didn't make us kings. Dragons did."

                ~Daemon Targaryen

At that time Lady Aemma was Geralt's step mother, she doted the boy, cared for him, nursed, nurtured and loved him as her own flesh and blood.

Rumors even lingered in the Red Keep that she was barren and cursed. Despite being infertile with many still births and dead children in her cradle, luckily the Seven Gods finally blessed Aemma with a child of her own.
