Summary
A Low-Effort Account of High-Stakes Nonsense
Holly is done with saving the world. After a war, funeral after funeral, and one unfortunate wish made to a magical room with no sense of boundaries, she ends up somewhere very far from home—and very much someone else’s problem.
Now she runs a not-entirely-legal bakery in a city where flour is political, dragons are supposed to be terrifying (hers is the size of a teacup), and minding your own business is practically a crime. She’s got no interest in thrones, titles, or noble nonsense.
Which is exactly why the nobles won’t leave her alone.
All Holly wants is to survive, stay unimportant, and keep her pastry case full. But when a certain highborn woman starts showing up for tea, Holly finds herself dragged—reluctantly—into court gossip, royal secrets, and a mess big enough to topple a kingdom.
She didn’t come here to change the world. But the world keeps showing up at her door.

Summary
He sat at the grave, for the second time this week, and wept. He held the satchel to his chest, mounting Thunder and kept riding down the road. He didn’t know when the rain stopped, but his tears didn’t stop. The inn rose in the distance and he wiped his tears away and nudged his horse to go faster. He could use actual rest.
The boy took the copper and his horses and Dunk sat in the corner of the inn, staring at the watery soup and the satchel. He didn’t want to open it, didn’t want to know what the Princess had died for. But he owed it to her. He pulled it closer and undid the clasp, flipping the flap open to look inside.
He immediately closed it.
Dunk hatched three dragons, over sixty years after the last one died. He doesn't know how he hatched them and he doesn't know how to care for them - but luckily the royal family arrived at Ashford. Maybe they can help.

Summary
Her words are 'We Light the Way.'
Her eyes are green like dreams, and she knows she will be nothing but a captive to her womb, her babes, and the blood they will hold at her father's behest. She was someone else once. In the future she has seen, in the world she has read in the pages of a book, seen acted out on screen, her son will set the Dragons Dancing.
Alicent Hightower laughs at the mere thought she would be subject to anyone but her own choices.
