A synopsis or hopefully one for those interested in some back story of the time period the game will be in. The tale is set after all the dragons have died. Yet what remains are their masters. The Targaryens have conquered the Seven Kingdoms and now rule. The tale is set after the Blackfyre Rebellion. A tale starting with Baelor the Blessed trapping his wife and fellow sisters within the Maidenvault to stop them from tempting him. Aegon the unworthy had no such problems and helped his cousin escape from the vault and resulted with Daena becoming pregnant with Daemon Blackfyre. Aegon during his reign would then create many bastards the most notable ones being. Brnden Rivers the current hand of the king. Bittersteel who is across the Narrow Sea and Shiera Seastar a beautiful paramour of Brynden Rivers who is said to bathe in the blood of virgins. Aegon's official heir by his wife Naerys Daeron the II would be the one taking the throne. It was believed that Daeron the II was not the true son of Aegon believing that the true father was Aemon the Dragonknight. Having named Naerys the queen of love and beauty instead of Aegons many mistresses. In the end Daemon Blackfyre was thought to be believed Aegon the Conqueror come again, a warrior unmatched with sword and lance. He was gifted Blackfyre the very sword Aegon the Conqueror wielded himself. Men would die for Daemon, women were drawn to him. Daemon was in love with Daenaerys Taergaryn and when she was denied to him. The Blackfyre Rebellion was born. Daeron was not the man Daemon was, where Daemon was a leader and charismatic warrior. Daeron was a man of scholarly pursuits, keeping company of maesters and other learned men. Yet he was able to bring Dorne into the fold by marrying Daenaerys to Dorne and taking a Dorne wife himself. He brought more dorne Customs into the small council gaining the ire of many great houses. When the Rebellion started many powerful houses flocked to the 'King who bore the sword." Daemon wielding Blackfyre made House Blackfyre and reversed the colours of his house from the main Targaryen Line. The Blackfyre Rebellion ended in the death of Daemon Blackfyre upon the Red Grass Field where Daemon was shot down by Brynden River and his band of archers Raventooth along with his twin sons. Bittersteel rallied the forces to engage Bloodraven taking his eye and Blackfyre escaping across the Narrow Sea. Bittersteel waits across the Narrowsea patient and plotting waiting to place one of Daemon Blackfyres other sons upon the Iron Throne. Where Bloodraven is now the current hand of the king. A common saying amongst the small folk. "How many eyes does Blood Raven have? !000 and 1" The houses that sided with Blackfyre were given mercy. There lands and holdings divided amongst the Loyalists, their sons and daughters taken as hostages back to King's Landing. A dangerous question to ask in this era. "Did you serve the red or black?"
