When Aegon's daughter hears the news, she doesn't believe it-
"Have you heard the news, Princess?" Her maid asked her as she laced her into her gown.
"What news?" She asked absentmindedly as she was trying to decide between the diamond necklace or the emerald one.
"Prince Aemond is returning to court, Princess." She froze. It can't be true....Uncle Aemond was coming back home? Just like that? One day he was gone, he'd left her them, and he was just...coming back?
Without thinking she began to walk briskly to her father's study, her long silver locks loose, she hadn't even let the maids finish adorn her in finery as she pushed the doors open to find her father drinking wine as he read through some letters.
"Ah, my princess," Aegon said affectionately. "Come sit, my love." She didn't sit, only looked at him, and asked quietly, "Is it true, Father?"
"Is what true, poppet?" He asked her.
"Is Uncle Aemond coming home?"
"Indeed he is, my darling. You know Lord Lannister has taken ill, and in his old age it's not likely he'll fully recover. The realm needs to stay on the path to peace, and- I need a new Hand. Your Uncle is returning to serve as my new hand of the King."
She absorbed the news, nodding her head, feeling a swarm of emotions.
"But- but he's been gone...for so long." She said, and her father sighed.
"You'll not remember every gruesome detail- and I thank the gods for it- but the war was a brutal time, princess. Your Uncle was not the same man he was when it was over, nor I. I know you loved him dearly, but...he believed he needed to leave, sweet girl." Aegon told her.
Leave me, she thought, then silently chastised herself- she wasn't six anymore.
"He was always fond of you, I'm sure you remember." Aegon said, as he kissed her forehead. "He didn't show much fondness, I must say, but when you were born, if there was any chance of seeing him smile, it was in your presence."
Of course she remembered- stolen honey cakes, time in the Dragonpit, flights on Vhagar, being read to at night, of the great history of their ancestors. Why else would it have hurt so bad when he left?
Oh Aemond has much to make up for!
She's a pretty, spoiled princess; jewels adorning her as well as the finest silks and dresses.
Aemond is welcomed in the throne room whilst she returns to her chambers...ordering her maids to continue their work
