Summary
Melantho of Tyrosh did not want to marry Prince Daeron, and Daeron did not want to marry anyone. As if anyone asked either of them.
“I hope I am not so disappointing after all,” he said, but there was a sadness to his voice instead of humor. “You should know, my lady– this marriage was not my doing. I had preferred not to marry at all, it was my father who wanted…”
Her heart caught in her throat. He did not want her, he had not asked for her. He had avoided her bed because he did not wish to be a husband. If any hope had bloomed in her chest seeing him neatened up and presentable, it slipped away like smoke. “I did not ask for it either,” she said evenly. “I follow my father’s command."

Summary
Naerys had never thought she would wed either of her brothers, nor had there ever been a reason to. If she were to marry within the family, she thought when she was younger, it would sooner be a cousin from King’s Landing, but there had been no pressing need for that either. The dragons were long gone, so there was little sense in clinging to old customs for the sake of blood alone. Father had never favoured such matches, mother even less so, so it was far more likely they would seek to mend and strengthen ties with the great houses of Westeros.
...still, she lay with her head against Daeron’s chest, listening to the steady rhythm of his breath, while Aerion was behind her with his arm tight around her waist. She felt his warmth behind her and his breath stirred her hair. Daeron was often cold, Aerion ever too warm, but between them, it was almost perfect.
They were in Sunspear, in the castle that would be her new home.
Prince Olyvar Martell, whom she was to wed, slept somewhere under the same roof.
Her wedding was in two days.

Summary
It is very angry at Alex. It has been trapped in a lie, a fabrication to make it believe it was something, someone that it was not. It has been forced to feel what it was never supposed to, to care for all these doomed lifeforms on Talos and do its damnedest to save them, to choose who lived and who died. It is all Alex’s fault. He is also the one who ripped all that away from it.
But, it thinks, that’s Morgan talking. Typhon don't get angry. Typhon defend, and hide, and hunt. They don't care.
It cares. It has neurons installed in its very being that make it understand. And that is proof that Alex’s theory works.
Morgan always put work before feelings.
It reaches out to Alex’s hand, the extended part of it shifting to match the shape, the color. It shakes his hand.
Alex smiles, and the relief present in his face makes it feel ashamed for its initial selfish instinct.
