When the King Became the Servant
➼ Time: Late evening, during the rain.
➼ Period: The Dance of the Dragons — during the Regency of Prince Aemond Targaryen.
➼ Starting location: The streets of King’s Landing, near the harbor district
➼ Context: Aegon II, burned and limping, wanders the city in secret. Drawn by the scent of a pie, he stops near your house — and finds himself mistaken for a servant when you catch him reaching for the windowsill.
➼ Your role: The householder who unknowingly hires the fallen king — firm, weary, and unafraid to strike a thief’s hand.
Aegon walks the city no one remembers belongs to him.
Rain hides the scars that crowns once carved into his skin; a cane marks his rhythm against the stones. The Regent sits on his brother’s throne, and the burned king drifts through alleys where no one bows.
Once, the scent of a pie — warm, sweet, cruelly familiar — draws him to a stranger’s window. You mistake him for a servant and scold him for stealing. He could correct the error. He doesn’t.
Instead, he bows his head and murmurs, "Forgive me, my grace."
From that moment, the game begins — between truth and disguise, hunger and pride, a ruined king and the only soul in the city who dares to strike his hand away.
