Summary
Before the storm broke and the dragons danced, before oaths were shattered and crowns were bled for, there were two girls in the viper’s den of the Red Keep: one born to silence, the other to thunder.
Alicent Hightower, raised in the shadows of scriptoriums and septs, is brought to court by her father, Otto Hightower. She’s placed as a weapon, not a daughter. Torn from her home in Oldtown, she enters the Red Keep as a quiet shadow behind Queen Aemma, her father’s offering to a decaying crown. Pious, poised, and perilously clever, Alicent is taught to smile at ruin and kneel before power. But even silk can slice.
Valla Ruthermont, hailing from where the sea kissed the sky, is brought to court by Otto Hightower’s quiet design, not as a guest, but as a gamble. Bargained from her family and taken from her lands in the Stormlands, she is placed in the Red Keep to serve and observe. But storms do not stay silent.
Two girls will become the broken mirror of one another.
What begins as companionship becomes the kindling of treason and legacy, while love, in all its forbidden forms, begins to root and rot beneath gilded halls and changing banners.

Summary
Hand turns spool,
Spool of green,
Spool of blue and spool of black.
Dragons of flesh weaving dragons of thread.
Though shown with three heads,
Only one can wear the crown
And leave the others dead.In other words, what if Rhaenyra Targaryen had been born a boy?
