𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫 — Men with minds turned towards history have long belittled the influence that these four women had upon the Dance of the Dragons. Many claim they had no influence at all and were merely pawns, moved casually across the board and sacrificed without care by the powerful men that they loved. I have found that maesters are often as least half-correct.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐎𝐍𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐃 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐆 — I'm sure we'll grow, but we'll never bloom again.

"That day in the sept, he took me under his golden cloak and swore he would protect me. At first, I thought such a vow ridiculous, but looking back, I wish I had chosen differently. I wish I had not chosen the man who could not protect me from himself and the hurts he laid at my feet. I wish I had chosen you.”

Larys’s lips moved as she spoke, as if he knew her words moments before they left her tongue.

Another man might have been surprised by her confession. Another man might have said she was right, that she should have chosen him. Another man might have kissed her, then, and made a knot of their bodies so tight that they would never be free of each other again.

All Larys gave her was a quiet hum of, “Of course he was going to hurt you.”

On a page, his response might have seemed callous. Cruel, even. But in the room where they sat together, she felt a tenderness in his voice, like fingertips brushing the shell of her ear. And beyond that, there was an accompanying pain, as if the wounds his brother had given her mirrored his own.

no bc ur not just gonna sit there and mention nothing about a larys oc when i can very well see it on your pinterest 👀 👀 👀

hey hey hey hey, she's right here! i'm innocent of these crimes and not much else!

but i WILL share a little more about her because i have to. mylla blackwood is the only daughter of lord garrat blackwood and his ferocious lady-wife, mara dustin. while alyse took up the bow as a way to snub her nose at her mother, mylla taking up the axe was very much in homage to mara... and garrat only served to encourage her. she remained unmarried until her twentieth nameday, when her father allowed her to pick five lords' sons’ names out of a basket and choose which one she'd like to wed the most. mylla cheated and stole a glance at the slips of parchment and chose harwin strong out of the flurry of names. "their children will eat stones to break their fast," her mother was recalled to have said at their wedding in 119 ac. "and breathe fire, though they've not a lick of targaryen blood in either of them." except... there would be no child. harwin strong was already in love with princess rhaenyra and only married in hopes of dissuading gossip. their bed was cold save for where she laid in it, and before long, the dark mark on the strong family name drew the attention of his younger brother, larys. what larys shaped in his hands for her, he called protection, even as the truth of her situation made mylla bitterly angry and hateful towards her husband. she took larys's protection and the hungry way he looked at her and the embers burning at harrenhal with a fierce smile, knowing that she'd chosen foolishly those years before. knowing she'd chosen wrong, but only by... a little.
