    Summary

    When Dunk is summoned to the castle, twelve years after the events at Ashford Meadow, the King, Maekar, has a new request.

    To take Aerion Targaryen, the only living Omega of the family, to the North without retinue or caravan, privileges or titles, where he will serve a week of punishment living at the Wall.

    A trip, a companion, two horses and a mule.

    Dunk has survived with less.

    Summary

    Dunk says nothing.
    The not-saying costs him. He can feel the words crowding up behind his teeth, the foolish desperate words, and what of this, what of me, what of the dead candle and the unbarred door, and he holds them, because he knows what they are worth, which is nothing, less than nothing, they are the kind of words that end a thing like this, and Dunk has discovered in himself a cowardice he did not know he owned, which is that he would rather have the fire on these terms than not have it at all.

    Summary

    After bedding each other, Aerion Targaryen expects distance, coldness, and some sort of regret. Dunk offers wine, asks if he is sore, and acts like it is the most natural thing in the world.

    The princeling, unfortunately, was not trained for this part.

    (In which Aerion has no defenses against a big knight with worried eyes and a damp cloth.)

    Summary

    “If I break my oath, even for you—” Dunk’s voice cracked. He thought of Ser Arlan’s face. Of Egg’s trust. Of everything he’d built himself to be. “What would that make me?”

    “Mine.” Aerion’s fingers slid to the nape of Dunk’s neck, tangling in his hair. “It would make you mine.”

    There are two kinds of distance between a common hedge knight and a Targaryen prince: the height that separates them, and the morality that should.
