Summary
Baelor Breakspear survives Ashford by an inch of bone, and Dunk rides to Summerhall with Egg as his squire. Dunk keeps waiting for Prince Maekar to remember he's supposed to hate him and throw him out. Any day now, surely. He'd stake his sword on it.
Little did he know, he'd lose his sword.
While Dunk anxiously awaits his dismissal, the rest of Summerhall; from a convalescing Baelor down to the stable boys; is watching Prince Maekar perform the least self-aware adoption in history, and running a betting pool on when Dunk will realise he's already family.
(Alternatively: the 7 times Dunk didn't realise he'd become a Maekarling, and +1 time he did.)

Summary
They had built the defence together, Imperial Fist architectural ingenuity and Iron Warrior defensive doctrine, until the mountain above Sothopolis had become an impregnable fortress. Walls were sunk deep into the living rock. Anti-aircraft batteries and autogun emplacements commanded every approach from above and below.
But the castellum at the mountain’s crown, the curled fist of steel and stone raised against the rage of the Ruinstorm, was Polux’s design and shame alone.

Summary
trial of the seven true ending confirmed
“I’ll send Measter Yormwell to have a look at him, when he’s done tending to my brother,” Prince Baelor says. The sweat and blood on his brow glisten with the promise of a man with many years left to live. His tasteful beard quivers with life.

Summary
I think, sometimes, of the little well behind the house. We could fit inside there, the both of us, and keep the world guessing where we are until they find our rotting knot of limbs the next summer.
Baelor loves his little brother, for better or worse.
Or: One-quarter queer study, one-quarter midlife crisis cope, one-quarter love/hate letter to Britain, one-quarter oneshot that got away from me
