    Summary

    Ser Duncan the Tall has survived trial by seven, drought disputes, and Blackfyre conspiracies.

    What he cannot survive is dinner.

    When Lord Raymun Fossoway — newly minted founder of the Green Apple branch and blissfully in love with his wife — invites Dunk and his squire Egg to celebrate his son’s nameday, Dunk expects roast capon and polite conversation.
    He does not expect:

    • A Dondarrion-looking baby with unmistakable Dondarrion brows.
    • Rowan smiling like a woman holding a wildfire secret.
    • Raymun asking him to be take in the boy as his squire when grown.
    • Egg nearly exposing the entire lie for sport.
    • And himself choking on a meat pie while accidentally consenting to spiritual guardianship of a thunderstorm disguised as an apple.

    Dunk knows.
    Rowan knows he knows.
    Egg definitely knows.
    Raymun is besotted.
    And Lyonel nearly ruined it all in the end.

    And sometimes mercy is choosing not to ruin a good man’s happiness — even if the child looks like he rode in from the Stormlands.

    A tale of silent pacts, aggressive under-table kicking, and one very suspicious apple.

    Summary

    Dunk got used to Egg's constant chatter, He never thought he'd have someone traveling on the road with him much less a Targaryen prince undercover as a stables boy who now became his squire.

    Summary

    “War wounds are one thing,” their lord father says, when Baelor enters his solar leaning on Maekar’s arm, “but this... This is something else altogether.”

    Baelor cannot help but smile - his head is an ugly thing now, Jena assured him of that, but he has his sight and his hearing, and he has his wits, too. The King would not say something so pointed were it not for his relief at Baelor’s survival.
