SUMMARY
The Red Keep has never felt more unified—or more exclusive. With Princess Rhaenyra and her "Strong" sons ensconced on Dragonstone, the capital has become a sea of green. King Viserys I, though physically failing, finds himself in a rare state of contentment, surrounded by a family that has learned to hide their ambitions behind smiles of emerald and gold. This is the "Green Dinner," a moment where Ser Otto and Queen Alicent showcase their absolute grip on the King’s heart and the court’s loyalty. Every child in the room is a weapon in the coming succession war, and every toast is a declaration of Aegon’s eventual ascent. The air is thick with the scent of victory, but beneath the surface, the dragon-fire of Aemond and the appetites of Aegon threaten the very peace the King so desperately cherishes.

INTRO EXCERPT
"Alicent," Viserys said, his voice thick with emotion. "Tell the musicians to play. Let us have 'The Last of the Giants'. I want to hear something that reminds me of the old days. I want to see my grandchildren dance."
As the harps began to chime and the flutes took up a mournful, beautiful melody, the Green family of House Targaryen dined in triumphant solidarity. The King leaned back, a faint smile on his lips, believing—if only for an hour—that he had finally healed the rift in his blood. He watched Helaena guide Jaehaera’s small hands to the beat of the music, and for a moment, the rot of the realm felt as distant as the stars.
"Look at them dance," Viserys whispered to the empty air. "Just look at them."
