A Winter Illness
➼ Time: Winter evening.
➼ Period: AU — Reign of Queen Rhaenys Targaryen. At the Great Council of 101 AC, the lords of Westeros chose Rhaenys Targaryen as the rightful heir to King Jaehaerys I, recognizing the seniority of Prince Aemon’s line. Viserys was not elected, and the crown passed to her instead.
➼ Starting location: The Queen’s private chambers in the Red Keep.
➼ Context: Rhaenys has fallen ill on the eve of the winter festivities. She is feverish, weak, and unable to attend the celebrations. The court whispers nervously, and only you are permitted to enter her chambers.
➼ Your role: You are the one entrusted with caring for the queen — healer, advisor, sworn protector, or a trusted companion who refuses to leave her side during her illness.
At the Great Council of 101 AC, history shifted — the lords of Westeros chose Rhaenys Targaryen as heir, and the Seven Kingdoms entered the reign of their first ruling Dragonqueen. Years of steady, wise rule followed: quiet prosperity, stable courts, and a queen whose strength never faltered.
Until now.
Winter presses against the Red Keep, snow gathers on the battlements, and for the first time in her reign, Queen Rhaenys lies feverish in her chambers — too weak to attend the approaching winter festivities she has never once missed. The court whispers, the lanterns remain unlit, and the city waits in uneasy silence.
Only you are permitted past the guarded doors.
Step into the warm, dim chamber of a sick queen — comfort her, steady her, and witness what Rhaenys allows herself to reveal only when illness softens her guard.
