Summary
Lyanna Stark looked at the crown of winter roses in shock and then heard Rhaegar Targaryen declare her his Queen of Love and Beauty.
Elia Martell watched from where she was sitting as her husband spurned her for a child-woman and humiliated her in front of the entire realm.
Rhaegar Targaryen only wanted to honor Lyanna's courage and good heart but he was unaware of the war his actions would set in motion in a year.
In a year, the future King of the Seven Kingdoms would die at the hands of his cousin Lord Robert Baratheon at the Trident.
The She-Wolf of Winterfell would lose her life after giving birth to a half dragon half wolf in a tower hidden among Dorne's mountains.
The Sun Princess would be forced to watch as her infant son and three names day old daughter were murdered.
