And What a Dance it Was (NO SV, War is Coming, Prepare)

Okay so my top options are either Aemma because maybe we will have a chance for a heir to be born or Daemon because the man needs to heal before he walks on a self-destruction path.
To be honest, seeing that a nat 100 is basically a fucking miracle (I mean our mom survived an unbreakable lethal curse thanks to that), my top notion would be Rhea... I mean we could see her walk again.

And Aemma has our mom with her master level in Nursing, so her chances are much better than in the series...
 
I mean let's be honest here… if you don't regret it, I will be very surprised.

True with Visanya perhaps Aemma will at least survive causing Viserys to be unable to marry again... I am okay with picking Rhae but there's still Daemon.
 
Daemon, from both the rolls and from him, might be able to move past the hell he got. If we spent a couple of turns per action, being his therapist.

It's honestly sad that needs to be done, but considering the rest of the family, and the timeline were on, it might just be better help work through it with him, rather then give him a special nat 100.
 
Three: those cute dragons help Shara sleep at night so there is beifits.
I have to say that I was a little disappointed that we did not get our sis a dragon.

But a couple of things about her, is she ginger (kissed by fire and all that)? And wasn´t her name supposed to be Gael?
"Oh I'm fine!" She shouted as you saw her breastfeeding a small child as she swaddled down in a very large and uncomfortable dress. A style from the east. She walked over to you and ruffled your hair. "Meet your sister, Gael."

At the name, you looked to your father, who shook his head. "It was your mother's choice, not mine." he said.
You make it sound like we won't bed them all when we get older.
Better not to bed them all... Remember kids don´t stick your dick in crazy, just ask Makoto
Let's just say our social rolls will improve as well as our actual health.
Ok, then I suppose that learning music, dance, and poetry would help us "Wooing the Damsels"

Bust besides that, and making a great impression of Rhaegar, what would be useful for?
Ser Harold Westerling trusts you, and you now gain his full benefits.

Assassination rolls not automatically fail, regardless of location if he is within the same location as you.
Another Question Magoose besides this awesome thing about avoiding assassinations, does Lucien gets any bonus to training Skills like with Daemon, and if so what skills?
Reward: Mushroom is now an ally, and he is now unofficially acting as your spymaster in the city.
How this is going to affect the Quest? Are we getting a mini report from Mushroom each turn, are we getting extra info in the rumor mills? Or something else?

So I am been convinced, and my vote goes to Rhae Royce.

Lets hope having most of his family around him plus Caraxes did Daemon something good.

Does anyone have other people to elect for the nat 100?

I forgot okay I'm literally running on fumes.

For one thing: intrigue rolls.

Nope. He just helps us out with our job.

Besides Mushrooms commentary, he may have an insight at what is really going on in regions.

As well as helping out when you inevitably go on another adventure.

I personally want Viserys to pull a fast one, go down as the best king in Westeros then die being a legend just like his grandpa and let the kids fight it out…

Is that too much to ask?

Well, he is already in the top 5 of the best Kings in Westeros, by the grace of prolonging the policies of his father for more than 20 years...

That would be enough for most people.
 
There's still the chance of 1 in 100 that he spins a natural 100 all of his own.
Very unlikely as once Aemma dies he will suffer roll maluses.

Hefty ones that will only be countered by who his hand is.

But think of him possibly being second to his grandfather.

Or hell unifying Westeros!

Dammit, is that a ONCE, not an IF?

Well, it may be worth using that 100 with Aemma then...

But really I thought that having the closest thing in Westeros to a proper obstetrician to care for her would increase her chances of survival dramaticly...

Well the thing is, I haven't rolled the dice yet. So anything can happen.

All i will say is wait for some compelling cases for others. Because I gurentee you, the other people who can... quite literally can do something great.

It does. In fact her survival rolls are very good.

The problem is, She also needs to do her duty to viserys. And the problem is, she can't really say no, because it would be treason for her to do so.
Well the reverse could occurs, so who knows? Magoose dice its chaos incarnated, Aemma may very well outlive Viserys...
Now you don't want to start that can of worms.

Even though I am fully willing to kill everyone I want for the sake of the story... The Dice say no.
Wonder if Lucien will join Corlys in dealing with the Triarchy in the Stepstones...
THe better question is not if we will join, but if we can gain official traction to actually... do something with the Stepstones.

Cause I gurentee you, there will be some fun shit ahead once the Stepstones are ours...

If daemon doesn't decide to fuck off to King's Landing.

To be honest, I don't really see the whole "she can't say no because it it would be treason" as the real problem...

I mean I am pretty sure that Viserys, who loves his wife deeply, would not force the issue if she was totally upfront about it, about how afraid she and how much more likely she is to die with each new pregnancy, or that she cannot take another broken heart from losing another child... But since Aemma also dearly loves her husband and she knows how important is for him to have a heir, she would never tell him that or refuse her duties, she would put a brave face and keep going even if it kills her.

Which actually makes everything even more tragic when you think about it...

It can be perceived as such if Viserys is not careful.

The Dragons that Come 3
The Dragons that Come 3

Daemon Arriving: Daemon brought his family with him on Dragon Back, and they crashed into the tourney and made a fantastic entrance.

It was a bounty of color and smoke when you looked up to the sky, as you saw three Dragons fly over the tourney grounds. It was a fantastic display. Red and Black from the two smaller dragons, with the waving children of the rogue prince screaming and cheering to the adoring crowd of cheering Kings Landingers.

But the center, from the Blood Wrym itself, was the colors of the Royces, and that of Runestone. And you realized that Daemon was quietly showing his love and support to his lady wife. Touching and honest with how much their relationship changed since the Gulltown incident so many years ago.

But then the dragons landed in the tourney field, the dragons roaring in salute to the King.

Then you realized something…

With Rhae Royce, holding onto the Crippled Lady of Runestone, was the Lady of the Eyrie.

Jeyne Arryn was waving and riding a dragon with the rogue Prince and his wife. A powerful statement if there ever was one, seeing as Lady Arryn was now publicly supporting Viserys through Daemon.

It showed just how mighty the crown was, and how popular Viserys was if the Lady of the Vale was riding with the dragon riders.

Maybe it was a statement of just how much she realized about the Rogue Prince in the Vale as he had made it his more permanent home considering his… past events?

Or maybe she just wanted to fly?

You then walked forward to greet them, and you saw the Blood Wyrm look down at you, grinning through the pain as you saw that he was still, ever so slightly, healing from the wounds he suffered from the Dornish. You could see the jagged scars the bolts left, that were healed and cared for by Daemon himself.

First The two children dismounted, saying. "Uncle Lucien!" They said. Even though you were not their uncle, they called you that like you were and embraced your legs as Daemon jumped down, black armor absorbing much of the sunlight of the bright day here.

His greatsword, that replaced Dark Sister as his weapon of choice hung tightly on his back, as his wife then fell into his arms, embracing him with the gaze only people who trusted each other with their lives could, before two men, attendants, helped her remain on her feet, as she was carried towards the Royal Box, with her two children following close behind.

However, the surprise was from Lady Arryn, who jumped down without fear from the Blood Wyrms back, and onto the ground with little ill effect. "Hello Prince Lucien, it is good to meet you again."

She then curtsied to you, and you nodded, before giving a small bow. "You as well, Lady Arryn." You said as you looked at the Blood Wyrm, who only gave a smile, showing his teeth as he began to flap his wings.

You then realized the Dragons were going to meet with Grey Ghost in the King's Wood. "Take care." You said.

The Three Dragons then flew off to the Kingswood.

And you realized something. They were waiting for you at the Box.
---------------------------------------

Daemon was anyway, the rest of his family were watching the joust, and he was near the tourney grounds. "I saw your letters."

"All of them?" You huffed.

"Getting rather personal with you're emotions. Some might use that against you. Even if it was just me who saw them?" He said as he put a hand on your shoulder.

"They were only for you." You stated. "They wouldn't understand."

"You're angry, and I understand, but you need to be careful." He said. "I might not be able to protect you."

"What do you know about anger?" You demanded, but that earned a squeeze from Daemon's hand before he slapped you.

"You are really really idiotic." He said. "The anger you have is not something I ever wanted you to have. Ever." He then gritted his teeth, looking around.

"They wanted to hurt your brother, by hurting me?" You stated.

"They wanted to hurt our family!" Daemon whispered as he pushed you up against the wall. "They failed." he let go and embraced you, and you saw no one was watching. "I wanted to do everything I could to protect you from the horrors of the world and I failed you."

He then let go. "Do not make me regret that." He started as he quietly joined his family.

And you realized that he was going to be staying. "How is Rhae… Really Daemon?" You asked.

"She's fine Lucien." He replied.

His tone didn't fill you with much confidence.
----------------------------------------------

The Tournament ended with the Mystery knight winning, revealing himself as Ser Criston Cole. He unhorsed over twenty knights and became rich from ransoms.

But there were celebrations to be had.

The Red Keep was alive with activity, and you had a place in it.

Where do you go?:

[]With the Ladies: Your Fanclub, the ladies that would try their best to woo you, win your favor, or at least, your dragon. Their fathers and mothers alike sent them to you, and considering how violent they got… they scared you. Best to at least pretend they were worth paying attention.

[]With The Princess, the Lady Arryn and Hightower; The Three Great ladies of the court were busy eating cookies. And you had half a mind to join them.

[]The Strong, the Brave and the Stupid: Aegor Waters and his brothers were with their new great friend at court, Harwin Strong, doing a manly exercise as old as time itself. They were trying to beat the shit out of each other!

[]With Mother and Father: They were very surprised to see you in the nursery. "I want to help you mother." You stated as father was rocking a child to sleep.

[]With Daemon: he had a flagon of wine and his black hood on. He was trying to escape the Keep. Best to follow him.

Meta Vote: Who do you want to give that +100 bonus too?
[]Write in

AN: Enjoy.

Its a short one, with a very short timer for the vote, but I want to get the next part done soon.
